Of all the many startling features of the Sussex relaunch this week, from Meghan's coat of arms to its timing as the King fights cancer - perhaps the most surprising has yet to be commented on.

A branding specialist said today that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's relationship with Paramount chief Brian Robbins would benefit them as they investigate a new TV streaming contract. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex were invited to Jamaica for the first time by Mr Robbins' family - with whom they are "personal acquaintances." The father-of-three is a well-known Hollywood celebrity who is the CEO of Paramount Pictures and Nickelodeon, and he and his stylist wife Tracy James live in Los Angeles. Given that Harry and Meghan are likely to be searching for new ways of earning, with their £80 million Netflix deal coming to an end early last June and their £15 million Spotify deal ending early last month, the Sussexes' relationship with the Robbins family is particularly notable. It's also curious that Paramount owns Comedy Central, which airs in South Park. Last February, a show called 'The Worldwide Privacy Tour' mockingly portrayed Harry and Meghan on a publicity bust to promote Harry's book, 'Waaagh'. According to Nick Ede, a branding and culture specialist, it was time for Harry and Meghan to shop around and see where they could land their next ratings winner.'
