Harry and Meghan signed a new more flexible contract with the steaming giant, which gives the company a &#8216;first look&#8217; option on any of their ideas, with the couple then able to take them elsewhere if Netflix passed them up. Their previous deal with the platform was said to be worth a staggering \u00a375 million, but now they are reportedly getting a lot less cash.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\" publication=\"mirror\">The updated terms have led to speculation that Netflix may be distancing themselves from the couple. The first two seasons of thje Duchess&#8217; lifestyle show, With Love, Meghan, were widely panned by critics, and ratings were lower for the second series than the first.<\/p>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\" publication=\"mirror\">Speaking out on her deal with the video powerhouse, Meghan said in October: &#8220;My husband and I were in an overall deal with Netflix, and then not just similar to Higher Ground in the Obamas&#8217; deal, once that had come to its term, the extension of it, which was such an incredible sign of the strength of our partnership, was now being in a first look deal.&#8221;<\/p>\n<div data-testid=\"image-group\"><button class=\"LightboxBtn_lightbox-btn__eoxYS\" aria-label=\"Open image viewer\" aria-haspopup=\"dialog\" aria-controls=\"image-lightbox\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"ImageEmbed_image-embed__0T8WX false\" data-testid=\"imageembed-36330346\" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-articleid=\"36330346\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"image\">\n<div class=\"ImageEmbed_image-container__2AIQm\">\n<figure class=\"Figure_figure__Uce4f\" style=\"--figure-aspect-ratio:1.78\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i2-prod.mirror.co.uk\/article36330346.ece\/ALTERNATES\/s615b\/0_With-Love-Meghan-Holiday-Celebration.jpg\" alt=\"Meghan in the new With Love, Meghan Christmas special \" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i2-prod.mirror.co.uk\/article36330346.ece\/ALTERNATES\/s458b\/0_With-Love-Meghan-Holiday-Celebration.jpg 458w, https:\/\/i2-prod.mirror.co.uk\/article36330346.ece\/ALTERNATES\/s615b\/0_With-Love-Meghan-Holiday-Celebration.jpg 615w, https:\/\/i2-prod.mirror.co.uk\/article36330346.ece\/ALTERNATES\/s1200e\/0_With-Love-Meghan-Holiday-Celebration.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 458px) 458px, (max-width: 615px) 615px, 1200px\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div><figcaption class=\"ImageEmbed_fig-caption__qotOK\"><span class=\"ImageEmbed_camera-style__Qjeby\"><svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"16\" height=\"16\" viewbox=\"0 0 16 16\" fill=\"none\"><g clip-path=\"url(#clip0_209_94274)\"><path opacity=\"0.16\" fill-rule=\"evenodd\" clip-rule=\"evenodd\" d=\"M14 4H2V10.6667C2 11.403 2.59695 12 3.33333 12H12.6667C13.403 12 14 11.403 14 10.6667V4ZM8 10C9.10457 10 10 9.10457 10 8C10 6.89543 9.10457 6 8 6C6.89543 6 6 6.89543 6 8C6 9.10457 6.89543 10 8 10Z\" fill=\"var(--color-sem-icon-primary-default)\"\/><path d=\"M2 3.33331H14V11.3333C14 12.0697 13.403 12.6666 12.6667 12.6666H3.33333C2.59695 12.6666 2 12.0697 2 11.3333V3.33331Z\" stroke=\"var(--color-sem-icon-primary-default)\" stroke-width=\"1.33333\" stroke-linejoin=\"round\"\/><circle cx=\"8\" cy=\"8\" r=\"2\" stroke=\"var(--color-sem-icon-primary-default)\" stroke-width=\"1.33333\" stroke-linecap=\"round\" stroke-linejoin=\"round\"\/><path d=\"M11.3332 1.33331L12.6665 1.33331\" stroke=\"var(--color-sem-icon-primary-default)\" stroke-width=\"1.33333\" stroke-linecap=\"round\" stroke-linejoin=\"round\"\/><\/g><defs><clippath id=\"clip0_209_94274\"><rect width=\"16\" height=\"16\" fill=\"white\"\/><\/clippath><\/defs><\/svg><\/span><span class=\"ImageEmbed_caption-title__FSINC\">Meghan does lots of crafting in the new show<\/span><span class=\"ImageEmbed_caption-credit__uNiU6\">(Image: PA)<\/span><\/figcaption><\/div>\n<p><\/button><\/div>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\" publication=\"mirror\">&#8220;Which is also exciting, because it gives us flexibility to go to our partners first, and then at the same time, to be able to shop content that might not be the right fit for Netflix, but has a home somewhere else.

Borkowski added: &#8220;It&#8217;s not like they&#8217;re gradually uncoupling. It&#8217;s a downgrade. Netflix are not going to expose themselves to those budgets again and it&#8217;s Netflix saying &#8216;Well, look, let&#8217;s have a look at your content, but we&#8217;ll pick and choose, mate&#8217;.&#8221;<\/p>\n<div data-testid=\"image-group\"><button class=\"LightboxBtn_lightbox-btn__eoxYS\" aria-label=\"Open image viewer\" aria-haspopup=\"dialog\" aria-controls=\"image-lightbox\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"ImageEmbed_image-embed__0T8WX false\" data-testid=\"imageembed-36308776\" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-articleid=\"36308776\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"image\">\n<div class=\"ImageEmbed_image-container__2AIQm\">\n<figure class=\"Figure_figure__Uce4f\" style=\"--figure-aspect-ratio:1.41\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i2-prod.mirror.co.uk\/article36308776.ece\/ALTERNATES\/s615b\/4_Image.jpg\" alt=\"With Love, Meghan: Holiday Celebration arrives December 3rd&#10;&#10;Meghan Markle\" loading=\"lazy\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i2-prod.mirror.co.uk\/article36308776.ece\/ALTERNATES\/s458b\/4_Image.jpg 458w, https:\/\/i2-prod.mirror.co.uk\/article36308776.ece\/ALTERNATES\/s615b\/4_Image.jpg 615w, https:\/\/i2-prod.mirror.co.uk\/article36308776.ece\/ALTERNATES\/s1200e\/4_Image.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 458px) 458px, (max-width: 615px) 615px, 1200px\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div><figcaption class=\"ImageEmbed_fig-caption__qotOK\"><span class=\"ImageEmbed_camera-style__Qjeby\"><svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"16\" height=\"16\" viewbox=\"0 0 16 16\" fill=\"none\"><g clip-path=\"url(#clip0_209_94274)\"><path opacity=\"0.16\" fill-rule=\"evenodd\" clip-rule=\"evenodd\" d=\"M14 4H2V10.6667C2 11.403 2.59695 12 3.33333 12H12.6667C13.403 12 14 11.403 14 10.6667V4ZM8 10C9.10457 10 10 9.10457 10 8C10 6.89543 9.10457 6 8 6C6.89543 6 6 6.89543 6 8C6 9.10457 6.89543 10 8 10Z\" fill=\"var(--color-sem-icon-primary-default)\"\/><path d=\"M2 3.33331H14V11.3333C14 12.0697 13.403 12.6666 12.6667 12.6666H3.33333C2.59695 12.6666 2 12.0697 2 11.3333V3.33331Z\" stroke=\"var(--color-sem-icon-primary-default)\" stroke-width=\"1.33333\" stroke-linejoin=\"round\"\/><circle cx=\"8\" cy=\"8\" r=\"2\" stroke=\"var(--color-sem-icon-primary-default)\" stroke-width=\"1.33333\" stroke-linecap=\"round\" stroke-linejoin=\"round\"\/><path d=\"M11.3332 1.33331L12.6665 1.33331\" stroke=\"var(--color-sem-icon-primary-default)\" stroke-width=\"1.33333\" stroke-linecap=\"round\" stroke-linejoin=\"round\"\/><\/g><defs><clippath id=\"clip0_209_94274\"><rect width=\"16\" height=\"16\" fill=\"white\"\/><\/clippath><\/defs><\/svg><\/span><span class=\"ImageEmbed_caption-title__FSINC\">Meghan has spoken out about her new Netflix deal<\/span><span class=\"ImageEmbed_caption-credit__uNiU6\">(Image: Netflix)<\/span><\/figcaption><\/div>\n<p><\/button><\/div>\n<p class=\"Paragraph_paragraph-text__PVKlh \" data-tmdatatrack=\"content-unit\" data-tmdatatrack-type=\"paragraph\" publication=\"mirror\">Harry&#8217;s unprecedented cameo in Meghan&#8217;s <a target=\"_blank\" class=\"TextLink_text-link__dBSS0 TextLink_enabled__dJF3l\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mirror.co.uk\/all-about\/christmas\" target=\"\" aria-label=\"\" tabindex=\"0\">Christmas<\/a> special comes just weeks after the Duchess gave a candid interview about her marriage and their dynamic.
