Meghan Markle and Prince Harry appear to have lost contact with a number of A-list celebrities because they have become "less appealing", a royal expert has said.
PR expert Ronn Torossian said the royal couple do not have the same friendships they once had.
Torossian added that there is "clear evidence" pointing to why the pair struggle to maintain their social circle.
The expert claims that A-list celebrities have distanced themselves from the Sussexes as they continue their rift with the Royal Family.

"Meghan herself indirectly highlighted this recently when she gifted a limited batch of her American Riviera Orchard Jams.
"It’s unclear whether some of her previously close public friends, like Oprah Winfrey, Tyler Perry, and the Clooneys, received one of the 50 jars—and if they did, none of them chose to share publicly.
"Either situation, the lack of public support or the lack of gifting, would speak to the cooling of these relationships and the shrinking of her Hollywood circle."

GettyTorossian added: "Additionally, some may want to avoid any potential fallout with the reigning British Royal Family."
"It’s not necessarily about Harry or Meghan themselves, but rather the complex and polarising controversies that continue to follow them despite their attempts to step back from public life."

"The ongoing media scrutiny and public controversies surrounding Harry and Meghan makes associating with them less appealing for some celebrities", Torossian said.

Harry and Meghan left their royal lives behind in the UK and moved to the US in 2020.
Princess Diana’s former butler, Paul Burrell claims that celebrities "would rather be associated" with Prince William and Kate Middleton, rather than the Sussexes.
"The true A-listers, who move in those circles, realize that Harry and Meghan’s brand isn’t as popular or as valuable, to be associated with as the real royal brand, and I can see people dropping like flies around them," Burrell told the NY Post.
