Meghan Markle and her husband Prince Harry look set to make an epic comeback after being awkwardly snubbed in the nominations for the Emmy Awards, according to an expert.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex failed to make the cut when the nominations were announced, but they have "pieces in the pipeline" as they focus on their future careers.
Meghan and Harry had been tipped to earn a nomination for their bombshell Netflix docuseries, titled Harry & Meghan, which featured a number of claims about their time in the Royal Family.
In the explosive series, Harry detailed the breakdown of his relationship with his brother Prince William and also took aim at his father King Charles.

During an appearance on TalkTV, she said: "They have pieces in the pipeline. It's not like they're sitting back and nothing is happening, the Invictus documentary is on its way."
Harry and Meghan released their docuseries last December and it went on to break streaming records as it became the biggest Netflix documentary debut.
The Sussexes signed their lucrative deal with Netflix after stepping back from the Royal Family in 2020. It is unknown exactly how much the deal is worth but it has been reported it could be worth $112million (£88,000).
