Netflix CEO Snubs Sussexes’ $100 Million Deal: Meghan Markle Faces Rejection from Streaming Giants

So, back in 2020, Megxit happened. Harry and Meghan decided to step back from royal duties, citing privacy concerns and a desire for independence. They landed in Los Angeles and signed a hefty deal with Netflix, aiming to produce content that resonates with people and avoids airing their family’s dirty laundry.

Their first swing at it was the Harry and Meghan docuseries, a six-hour marathon of them playing the victims. Then came Harry’s docuseries about the Invictus Games, which felt more like him using wounded veterans’ stories as a backdrop for his own pity party. Meghan’s contributions included a kid’s show and a podcast where she interviewed celebs about female stereotypes.

The Sussexes’ brand is toxic, even in Hollywood. They trash the monarchy with one hand while cashing in on its prestige with the other. It’s no wonder Netflix said, “thanks, but no thanks.”
