Meghan & Prince Harry Drift Apart?
Meghan Markle has just finished filming a new cooking series for Netflix. It is a part of her and Prince Harry’s $100 million five-year deal with the platform. However, Meghan reportedly feels “under siege” due to mixed reactions to her new projects.
An expert revealed that this tension has also strained her relationship with Prince Harry. A source stated, “It all went well, and it is in the can.” Also, a filming permit revealed that the show was filmed at two locations: a premium wholesale florist just a 10-minute drive from Montecito, California.
Another was a $5 million property located only two miles from the $11 million mansion Dutch and Duchess of Sussex share. Some big names in the cooking world, including Michael Steed, are believed to have worked on the show.
Meanwhile, royal author Tom Quinn exposed a growing rift between the couple due to Meghan’s increasing worry that her life isn’t going as planned. Quinn said, “She loves media attention and hates that surveys suggest she and Harry are no longer of much interest to the American public.”
Meghan’s Post-Royal Ventures- A Hit Or A Miss?
Since stepping down from the royal family, Meghan Markle has embarked on various projects with mixed success. Her Spotify podcast, Archetypes, was part of a $20 million deal but wasn’t renewed for a second season. Meghan and Harry’s Netflix deal expires in 2025, and she’s also gearing up to launch her new lifestyle brand, American Riviera Orchard.
According to Quinn, Meghan’s projects have not gained significant public attention. There are concerns about the future of her Netflix contract, and her lifestyle brand has faced widespread criticism. According to Quinn, Meghan feels ‘very much under siege.”
The royal author asserted, “She has reached the point now where she thinks that anything and everything she does will be unfairly criticised. The Duchess of Sussex struggles to comprehend why her work is not more widely appreciated.
