Tyler Perry who supported the Sussexesafter their move across the Atlantic, is reportedly first in line to take over a popular TV channel.

Princess Lilibet’s Godfather and Sussex Friend, Up for a Lucrative Deal With a Paramount Owned Show

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle [https://netflixjunkie.com/tag/meghan-markle]
have mustered a lot of high-profile connections ever since they moved across the
pond. Along with Hollywood stars and celebrities, they have also strengthened
their ties with various media personalities. Tyler Perry is an American
playwright, actor, comedian, and also producer is certainly among them. Being
one of the most commercially successful African American filmmakers, he is also
famous for one more reason. That is, for being Princess Lilibet’s Godfather. The
actor has been the Sussexes’ close associate for a long time. Recent updates
around him suggest the actor has a huge deal coming his way.

According to reports by Express
[https://www.express.co.uk/news/royal/1780487/royal-family-live-harry-meghan-Princess-Lilibet],
he recently made headlines as he is said to be the next to take over the cable
channel BET. Sources confirmed that Paramount, who is the current owner of the
channel BET (short for black entertainment television) had been losing money.
And hence Perry was able to secure a perfect deal that will give him control of
the BET media group. The actor has been known for his roles in many hit shows
like Sistas and The Diary of mad black Woman, which was written by Tyler himself
and produced by BET.

Tyler has been a longtime family friend to the estranged royals. His friendship
came evident as he even made a cameo in the couple’s Netflix bombshell, Harry &
Megan. Therein, he praised the pair for their decision to step out of the royal
family.”They just wanted to be free,” he said. In the 6th episode of the
documentary, Tyler revealed how he reacted when he was asked to be the godparent
to the couple’s daughter Lilibet. Earlier this year, the Sussexes turned the
friendship into family ties as they bestowed him with the responsibility of
Princess Lilibet’s christening.

But how did it all start?


INSIGHT INTO THE FRIENDSHIP BETWEEN PRINCE HARRY, MEGHAN MARKLE, AND TYLER
PERRY 

His friendship with Meghan Markle began in 2018 when he wrote a letter to the
Duchess before her marriage to the Prince. He wrote to Markle that he hoped she
would be able to hold on and go through the problems. This came in light of the
numerous scandals that gripped Markle about her father and the paparazzi. He
also promised her that he would be there in her time of need and he did keep his
end of the promise.

Not to mention how he was also one of the few people to help the pair when they
left Canada. He gave his $15 million mega-mansion in the Beverly Bridge estate
of LA to the couple where they resided for quite a while. The Sussexes stayed at
the abode during the coronavirus pandemic and were promised complete security.
Tyler explained that he just wanted to help the couple during their times of
grief and turmoil.
