With Prince Harry struggling with his business, Meghan Markle has reportedly taken the lead in the couple’s media efforts. Insiders claim that Netflix now sees the Duchess as the stronger bet inside Archewell’s partnership, with Markle driving development while Harry steps back. The shift follows a mixed run since the pair signed their multiyear deal in 2020, with few releases making it to air.
Source says Meghan Markle is now more invested in her and Prince Harry’s business activities
Meghan Markle has now taken the lead role in the public business as Prince Harry’s recent projects struggled to connect. A senior production source told Radar Online, “Netflix has learned that Meghan is the one with the media instincts. She’s polished, camera-ready, and understands how to build a brand.” At the same time, “Harry’s ideas haven’t worked – the audience just isn’t there. At this point, she’s the face of the business and he’s taking a back seat.”
While the couple’s 2022 docuseries drew huge viewership, Harry’s solo efforts since then, like his polo documentary, have not been as successful. According to an entertainment executive, “Harry wanted to show a side of the sport that people hadn’t seen,” but “It didn’t connect.”
Meanwhile, Meghan Markle’s lifestyle series secured a renewal this summer and was paired with the launch of her new “As Ever” rosé brand. A Hollywood source explained, “Meghan’s work might divide opinion, but it gets attention. That’s what Netflix cares about.”
Sources added that the couple’s recent Netflix extension was to keep Markle front and center. A PR consultant claimed, “The streamer wants to keep her on board.” They added, “Harry’s creative role has been reduced to producing credits and behind-the-scenes work. He’s lost momentum.”
A senior industry insider summed it up, stating, “Meghan has turned herself into a functioning media brand. Harry hasn’t found his footing. The feeling in Hollywood is that she’s now completely running the show.”
Hence, while Meghan Markle leads the couple’s business, Prince Harry is seemingly expected to take the back seat — at least for now.
