Harry and Meghan to lose $100m Netflix deal as contract ends in big financial blow

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex's $100 million deal with Netflix is coming to an end, with the streaming platform deciding not to renew their contract when it expires in September. The Sussexes and Netflix have agreed not to make an official announcement but sources have told The Sun executives have opted to quietly end the partnership. 'The deal is done; no more shows will be made. Netflix feel they've got all they can from the couple. Netflix were clever in that they got a hell of a lot of viewers for the first documentary series, and knew, realistically, it would prove the zenith of content from the Montecito pair,' they said. 'They're not unhappy with how things turned out — they got those initial hits, and produced one of the most talked-about shows of all time. The content got weaker from there on but, frankly, for £20million a year, anything was better than nothing.' 'There's no animosity from either side. Things have just run their course. Netflix execs are well aware Meghan's priority now is her own brand, and they won't play second fiddle to that. Publicly, there will not be a statement and of course, if things change dramatically, they'd be open to a one-off project down the line.' 'But for Harry, especially, this will be a blow. It's a huge loss of revenue.' Reports suggest that Meghan's lifestyle series As Ever failed to break into Netflix's top 300 titles, and Prince Harry's Polo documentary drew only modest audiences. Despite initial success with their first documentary, subsequent content struggled to connect with viewers. The couple is said to still be on good terms with Netflix CEO Ted Sarandos and Paramount+ is reportedly interested in working with them if a suitable project arises. Netflix has not commented on the matter.

Netflix quietly scraps Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's lucrative Netflix deal after five years

Prince Harry and wife Meghan's $200 million deal with Netflix has been scrapped. The streamer will not renew their contract when it expires in September, The Sun reports. The Sussexes and Netflix have mutually decided not to make an official announcement, but streaming executives have quietly agreed to part ways. It comes after Harry's project, Polo, about the sport, was watched by just 500,000 people this year, according to Netflix's latest 'What We Watched' report, while With Love, Meghan was the 383rd most watched show, registering 5.3 million views. It's also understood that bosses were mildly infuriated by Meghan making her As Ever brand a priority. Meghan is still set to release the second season of With Love, Meghan later this year. 'The deal is done. No more shows will be made,' a source said. 'Netflix feel they've got all they can from the couple. 'Netflix were clever in that they got a hell of a lot of viewers for the first documentary series, and knew, realistically, it would prove the zenith of content from the Montecito pair. 'They're not unhappy with how things turned out — they got those initial hits, and produced one of the most talked-about shows of all time.' The source continued saying the 'content got weaker from there', though added there was no bad blood. 'There's no animosity from either side. Things have just run their course,' the source added. 'Netflix execs are well aware Meghan's priority now is her own brand, and they won't play second fiddle to that. 'Publicly, there will not be a statement and of course, if things change dramatically, they'd be open to a one-off project down the line. 'But for Harry, especially, this will be a blow. 'It's a huge loss of revenue.' Netflix CEO Ted Sarandos is believed to remain on good terms with Meghan. The source said streamer Paramount+ was thought to be keen to work with the couple, who would be open to it if the right project came along. Last month it was announced Netflix had signed a deal with King Charles and Idris Elba for a documentary exploring the impact of the King's Trust. And it was understood any deal with the Sussexes could be seen as a hindrance to that link-up.
