Netflix deal is over

  • Both decided a statement won’t be released “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.”
  • Talk about Paramount plus

It’s been pretty obvious for a while. No talk about the Archewell productions arm, the film they were making etc.

How long can As ever last when they won’t have NF to back it up with WLM infomercials.

Re receipts.

I did think at the time why would you go to HR. Why did Harry not go to his therapist . Why did she not go to her gynaecologist. I am pretty sure RF doctors / health professionals are as confidential as confidential can be.

But going to HR and not getting the answer you wanted does help the poor me , nobody cares narrative. & I think it was manipulative of her TBH & another thing even Oprah could have picked her up on.

Meghan Markle wanted to 'hijack the narrative' following Megxit

While at long last relations between the Sussexes and the rest of the family appear to be thawing, for the staff that worked under Prince Harry and Meghan Markle the bad blood will likely remain.

IMHO, I am surprised at the school of thought that maintains that H would stay for the children when none of H's dad, mom and his maternal Uncle Spencer with whom H maintains links stayed for the kids.

As for H, IMHO there is nothing to be done with him...he just has not realised it yet. After Spare and whining about Nepal, any hope of any official diplomatic role is over. The scandals at various charities (African Parks, Sentebale) are yet to be resolved so more bad press may put H's ability to be a Patron at risk.

As for M, for her comparison will always steal her joy. She is a millionaire craving a billionaire lifestyle. But the math ain't mathing and will only get worse. She is in her mid40s in an industry that values youth in front of the camera and does not have the skillset to get behind the camera as evidenced by the trail of failed projects.

Trump will exhaust media oxygen for the next 3.5 years and at the end of Trump, Prince George turns 15...cue George-mania. After G, his sister C the fashion juggernaut will seize all the headlines, and L will soon follow with Louis-mania. And then, the great hunt for the next Queen Consort will ensue.

50-somethings, no matter the drama, won't be able to compete on clicks and will be dropped from the headlines and descend to oblivion. Then the real consequences of living a champagne lifestyle on a beer budget will come home to roost.

I agree with this and on fairness he knows it too.. he saw it happen to Andrew and Fergie once William and Harry came of age. Harry said himself they needed to make an impact while Williams kids were still young as once they grew up the spotlight would shift to them. That’s why they left so quickly when people were saying they didn’t give it a chance

The make-up styling on the OW interview is so grim and jarring. It did her no favours. She is a very attractive woman and her makeup always looks glowing and gorgeous to me. But that smokey eye and miserable pale pout made her look disturbed.

DelectableMe · 30/07/2025 20:06

Yes, it was a strange choice to have her makeup like that.

Harry stayed at the Middleton’s several times with William, which makes his annd Meghan’s attacks on Catherine in particular extremely tasteless.

i think, of all their victims, Catherine is the one who should never have to be anywhere near either of them ever again.

What they’ve put that woman through is unforgivable.

Well said, @CoffeeCantata

Megs PR is working hard for their money.

https://pagesix.com/2025/07/30/royal-family/meghan-markle-still-making-jam-with-netflix/

So seemingly, have a deal but theyre just not making a song and dance about it like the Obamas!

The NYPost:

’When the Obamas moved from an exclusive deal to a ‘first look’ deal, Netflix issued press releases and made a huge fuss about it. It’s not the same with Meghan and Harry. They’ve barely even acknowledged it,” a TV insider told The Post.’

I, too have a NF deal but they haven’t issued a press release, we are just keeping quiet about it. Very demure, very mindful.

Exclusive | Meghan Markle’s Netflix deal ending, but they’re still making jam together: ‘Plenty coming up’

“They’re NOT done, they have plenty coming up together,”said a source of Markle and Netflix’ ‘As ever’ deal.

Her PR is just desperately trying to fill the void until Sept when the show comes out and the new As ever line. So they are just pumping out clap trap about a new deal and how NF is fully invested in Meg.

They’ve also put out conveniently, that the deal hasn’t been formally announced but it’s happening……Sure

It’s all very telling how desperate it’s become.

OP posts:
AtIusvue · 30/07/2025 21:46

That’s the DM, People and Page six all been briefed by Megs PR that there is a first look deal, they are just keeping quiet. That it’s not all falling apart and NF think Meg is awesome.

BasiliskStare · 30/07/2025 21:49

@AtIusvue and others who know " It says Meg n Harry are getting a first look deal from NF worth 65 million" . Same as the Obamas.- "

For the layperson what does a $65m First Look deal mean. Do they get a retainer or are NF saying if they get first dibs they will fund up to $65m over a number of projects. I assume this money isn't immediately trouserable 😂
But M & H I think will be happy in that it keeps them in the perceived circle of top earners - whether they will get this money or a fraction of it. I'd be really interested to know how much they actually earned from NF. And Spare which I think gave Harry 12m or was it 22. Ie initial sales went well.

AtIusvue · 30/07/2025 22:29

I think there must be some form of retainer but NF are no longer paying Archewell costs, so there won’t be much of a production company.

Rhe retainer could help with these costs but I can’t see it’s stretching to the $3 million cost NG was covering. That’s $15 million in Archewell production office costs and look how little they produced.

There’s no way in reduced staff and money they are going to be able to develop anything

Plus Meg said on the Emma grede podcast that As ever is her focus. She never even mentioned her production deal. She said she worked with a different building at NF now.

The production stuff is going to be quietly forgotten about. Just like her podcast deal

Just spotted on that PageSix link that Jessica Mulroney and her husband have separated. Seems JM's career and MH totally collapsed following the BLM incident. https://pagesix.com/2025/07/29/royal-family/meghan-markle-ex-best-friend-jessica-mulroney-splits-from-husband/

I don't believe the HR story, HR is for the staff not the actual royals , I'd be surprised if they even know who works in HR .

In other news , apparently Meghan is releasing a new batch of rosé .

I think the Instagram handle is 'Wisconsintherapist', which at a glance looks like 'Wiscons in the rapist', instead of Wisconsin Therapist.
(I might be wrong though.)
