Meghan Markle News: Duchess of Sussex scores first Emmy nomination for Netflix series With Love, Meghan

It might have attracted some harsh reviews, but it seems the Duchess of Sussex will get the last laugh after her TV series With Love, Meghan scored an Emmy nomination.

The show, which ran for two seasons and also spawned a Christmas special before being cancelled by streaming giant Netflix, has scored a Daytime Emmy Nomination for Outstanding Lifestyle Program.

The former Suits star was listed as an executive producer of the show, under her full name, Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, when it premiered in March 2025, and will therefore likely be front and centre when the awards take place later this year.

Prince Harry made a number of appearances on the show, including the Christmas special, when he sensationally told Meghan her gumbo was not as good as her mother’s.

With Love, Meghan was produced in partnership with Archewell Productions, an off-shoot of Archewell, which was founded in 2020 by the Duke and Duchess of Sussex to house their business and philanthropic interests.

It was responsible for the 2022 Netflix docuseries Harry & Meghan, as well as other documentaries, including Invictus Games and Polo, and the newly released Cookie Queens.

Despite having a career as an actress before meeting Prince Harry, this is Meghan’s first Emmy nomination.

Since the show ended, Meghan has kept busy running her business As Ever, which was launched in partnership with Netflix at the same time as the show.

The show was quietly cancelled at the start of 2026, although the door was left open for more one-off specials.

Then in March came the announcement Netflix had parted ways with the lifestyle brand, which is known for its range of fruit spreads, teas, candles and wines.

The Emmy nomination will be a welcome boost for Meghan and Harry, who were in the UK over the weekend with their two children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, for an emotional reunion with King Charles and Queen Camilla.

While in the UK, Harry recorded an episode of the  Joe Marler Will See You Now podcast, which aired Tuesday (AEST).

Some comments raised eyebrows, including his answer when asked his occupation, which he listed as “full-time dad, British Army veteran, Prince of England, Duke”.

The podcast, which takes the form of a psychotherapist questioning guests, saw Harry reveal the most famous names in his contact book as well as his favourite trashy TV show (Love Island).

The Duke of Sussex also discussed his grooming routine, delivering a decidedly ‘un-royal’ answer, and even touched on his toilet habits, but also ventured into more serious topics including his methods for “coping with trauma”.

At one point Harry was joined on the podcast by JJ Chalmers, a former Royal Marine, who was seriously injured in Afghanistan and went on to become an Invictus Games medallist and television presenter.

Harry said everyone could learn from the resilience demonstrated by the athletes competing in the event.

“From my experience… resilience is in every single one of us, and there is a moment in life where either you’re blown up or you lose someone close to you where you end up digging deep,” he said.

“And how you choose to use what’s happened to you… is what I see in this community”.

His children also got a mention, with Harry admitting he will always “squeeze [his] kids extra tight” if “a day is hard”.

Meghan will have a long wait to find out if she makes it up on to the stage to pick up an Emmy, with winners announced at a ceremony at the Hollywood Palladium on October 30 this year.
