Big financial blow: Netflix may not renew Prince Harry, Meghan Markle's $100 million contract; here's why
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s $100 million Netflix contract is facing uncertainty after their latest docuseries, "Polo," received a disappointing response.

This time, the docuseries presented by the couple to Netflix saw a very small appearance from the Duke and Duchess of Sussex and an overload of the sport polo. Surprisingly, all the famous couple's glamour has fallen by the wayside as far as reviews go. Thus, negative reviews both from the critics and the viewers can bring an end to this partnership with Netflix.

Nick Ede expressed concern that the "Polo" docuseries could be a major setback for Harry and Meghan's Netflix contract. He noted that the show faced tough competition, including Netflix’s newer releases like “Black Doves” and various Christmas specials. Ede emphasized that unless the show gains significant traction and cracks Netflix’s Top 10, the series could spell the end of their deal.
While their previous docuseries, "Harry & Meghan," released in December 2022, was a huge success, the future of their Netflix projects is uncertain. The couple has other projects in the pipeline, including Meghan's upcoming cooking and wellness show, but whether these will perform as well as their earlier successes is yet to be seen.
