Meghan Markle and Prince Harry's exclusive deal with Netflix to produce original film and TV content has suffered some setbacks. Her company Archewell Audio produced two of her Netflix original series, but a recent report revealed that two of her shows were rejected outright. Sources familiar with their work suggest they are increasingly concerned about the progress of their $100 million deal with the streaming platform. When they first partnered with Netflix, their first project was slated to be Heart of Invictus, a series focused on competing for wounded military personnel. However, Prince Harry has apparently asked Netflix to remove all footage of Meghan Markle from the Invictus Games documentary, underscoring the prince's decision to focus on her solo career. Rumors of the cancellation of the project spread on social media. Some attributed this to an alleged request from Meghan, suggesting she may have made it a personal runway show rather than putting veterans in the spotlight. Despite the controversy surrounding them, the couple are expected to document their visits to communities in South Africa and collaborate on another Netflix project highlighting their humanitarian efforts and community-building efforts. Meghan's participation in this project is intended to raise her awareness of her self-birth practice.
Meghan Markle and Prince Harry have come under criticism and scrutiny in recent years, especially since their revealing interview with Oprah Winfrey in 2021. Relations between Prince Harry and his family have been strained lately, with some claiming the pair have gone too far against the royal family. Spotify's deal with Netflix also ran into trouble, with Spotify calling them "extortionists" and withdrawing their $20 million deal.
The couple seems to be overcoming a difficult situation as public opinion wavers against them. Princess Diana's former butler, Paul Burrell, has publicly criticized him for misunderstanding what is expected of them in a deal with a major streaming company.
Still, questions remain about how her journey will play out and what her strained relationship with the royal family will ultimately be.
While Meghan has kept a low profile this year, some have speculated that she recognizes the consequences of certain actions and struggles to find a way out of controversy. Perceptions of their brand have changed, and public sentiment toward them seems to be increasingly negative. The future of their business with Netflix and other platforms is at stake as they try to navigate the complexities of people's perceptions.
