Duds of Sussex (noun.) Alternative title given to the
Duke and Duchess of Sussex. (Dud, single masculine noun. Dudsness, single feminine noun. Duds,
short plural noun. Dudling, Dudlings, dimunitive single and plural nouns).
Referring to their career failures. From the Dudsness'
72 days of actual royal service, the Dud's poorly ghost written memoir, Jeremy Zimmer, prestigious talent representative at UTA, called the Dudsness "not a great audio talent, or necessarily any kind of talent", and both Duds were called "
f***ing grifters" by Spotify executive
Bill Simmons. Further, their charity was called into question when public disclosures revealed they
work 1 hour per week.
Personal blunders include lying about a 2 hour, "near catastrophic", high speed paparazzi car
chase in New York City. NYC Mayor
Eric Adams and the NYPD stated that no
chase occurred and the Duds of Sussex "arrived safely
home".
Hypocritically, the Duds of Sussex left the United Kingdom for the United States—a country which successfully fought a
war to be free from the Crown's rule. However, they demand that people in the
USA address them and their children by peerage titles. The
USA does not have a system of nobility and ruthlessly satirized the couple on the cartoon "South Park". (Season 26, episode 2, "Worldwide Privacy Tour").
In a gesture of goodwill, the US citizens have bestowed a title crafted exclusively for them: The Duds of Sussex. Their children are to be called "Dudlings".
