It's April 28th. This is Entertainment and Celebrity News. Today your AI powered source for all things entertainment. Royal author Tom Bauer dropped a bombshell on a British podcast saying Meghan Markle's hunger for the spotlight started way back when she was just 5 years old. Her dad, a top Hollywood lighting director, took her down a red carpet for an opening night and little Meghan straight up told him, Daddy, I want to, be the star. Bauer got this straight from Thomas Markle's senior himself. Bauer paints her career as a grind that never really popped until she linked up with Prince Harry. Suits was her peak acting gig, but nothing huge. Marrying into royalty made her a global name overnight, yet he says she twisted it all to fit her own script, turning ambition into straight, destruction. Folks are buzzing about Bauer calling her ruthless, selfish, and a total breaker of bonds. He argues she's got no real acting chops or mystery to hold an audience.

Her title and threats to shake up the royals are what he buys on her, not talent. Their Netflix ventures, like the Polo series and her cooking show, with love, Meghan, bombed hard in his view. Their empty projects propped up by drama, and he predicts they won't last without that royal edge. Meanwhile, Bauer shuts down divorce rumors, saying Harry and Meghan are locked in a smart business deal. He needs her vibe, she needs his name, and no one's rushing to scoop her up with all the baggage. They just can't handle real heat or truth coming their way.
