Breaking news: Why Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s A-list friends will be ‘dropping like flies’:See why..

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s inner circle — which has included some notable A-listers — is continually shrinking, according to former royal butler Paul Burrell.

Burrell — who worked for Harry’s mother, Princess Diana, until her death in 1997 — noted that Hollywood stars used to want to be associated with the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, but things have changed in recent months.

“Meghan and Harry have divorced themselves from the brand, which is the royal family. They’ve downgraded themselves,” Burrell said.

“They are disassociating themselves with them because it ruins their brand,” he said, adding that A-listers “would rather be associated with [Prince] William and [Princess] Kate.”

In her former life as an actress, Markle forged friendships with many Hollywood stars after landing a leading role in the hit legal series “Suits,” which she quit in 2017 prior to tying the knot with Harry.
