Prince Harry and Meghan Markle<\/a> have been dealt “a slap in the face” by Netflix<\/a> after the streaming service signed a new first-look deal with the couple, a royal expert has claimed. Speaking on the Mail’s Palace Confidential<\/a>, royal expert Richard Eden said: “Harry himself, in his interview with Oprah Winfrey, talked about how he needed money and he needed it quickly because of security and money being cut off from his father.”<\/p>\n The expert cited Prince Harry<\/a> and Meghan Markle<\/a>‘s deals with Spotify and Netflix<\/a>, which were “worth a fortune.” However, the new deal with Netflix<\/a> is believed to be a “first look” deal, meaning the streaming giant will only pay the couple once it commissions Meghan and Harry’s ideas. Richard Eden said: “It’s definitely a slap in the face. What Harry would want would be another deal he could boast to Oprah Winfrey about\u2014how much it’s worth.”<\/p>\n THIS IS A LIVE BLOG FOLLOW BELOW FOR UPDATES…<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source www.express.co.uk \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have been dealt “a slap in the face” by Netflix after the streaming service signed a new first-look deal with the couple, a royal expert has claimed.
