Story

Meghan Markle is reportedly under immense pressure as her forthcoming cooking and lifestyle show is viewed as a critical opportunity to salvage the struggling Netflix deal she shares with Prince Harry. The couple signed a lucrative five-year agreement with the streaming service in 2020, shortly after they stepped back from royal duties and relocated to the US, where they currently live in Montecito, California. However, their recent series, ‘Polo,’ has received scathing reviews and performed poorly, causing insiders to label the upcoming show as 'make or break'. Failure of the cooking series could jeopardize their deal, with critics suggesting that Netflix executives are weary of the couple and demanding quality content that can resonate with wider audiences. With a notable absence from Netflix's January lineup, fans speculate that Meghan's cooking show may be postponed for a late February or March release. The perceived need for success underscores the couple's challenges to maintain their relevance as content creators in a competitive landscape. Amid the swirling scrutiny of their careers, Meghan’s culinary program is considered vital to restoring their credibility in Hollywood.
