dailyloe.com – In March 2025, Netflix launched a lifestyle talk show called ‘With Love, Meghan’ featuring Meghan Markle. The show was produced by Archewell Productions, the company she shares with Prince Harry. It featured Meghan sharing recipes and hosting tips with food celebrities and friends. The initial season reached Netflix’s TV top 10 list.

A second set of episodes was released in August 2025 with little fanfare. This occurred just weeks after Archewell’s arrangement with Netflix was reduced to a first-look deal. By the end of the year, the show’s future seemed unclear. Neither Netflix nor Meghan was commenting on its status.

This launched another round of speculation about Harry and Meghan’s post-royal careers. They made their dramatic exit from royal life in early 2020. Critics questioned if their dreams of making it alone were doomed. The harshest commentary came in a recent Variety report.

Variety reported last month that Netflix employees were fed up with the couple. The report cited poor communication and a difficult working relationship. A Netflix spokesperson called some allegations absolutely inaccurate. A lawyer for the Duke and Duchess of Sussex called them blatantly false.

Spokespeople for Meghan, Harry, and Netflix executives have noted they remain in business. Archewell Productions and Netflix are still working together. A spokesperson for the couple told Vanity Fair ‘With Love, Meghan’ will return. Future seasonal specials are planned but timing is unannounced.

Meghan and Harry admitted they lacked a solid career plan after 2020. They left royal service just months before signing their Netflix deal. Hollywood was clearly interested in giving them a shot. Their company Archewell Productions was subsequently born.

They also signed an exclusive podcasting deal with Spotify. That deal ended in 2023 after just 13 aired episodes. It took years before they released any projects. Their first Netflix show premiered in December 2022.

That show, ‘Harry & Meghan’, broke a documentary-debut record on Netflix. It told the story of their private meeting, wedding, and exit from the UK. The docuseries made headline news for weeks. It provoked much upset among Harry’s extended family.

‘Harry & Meghan’ and ‘With Love, Meghan’ are Archewell’s biggest Hollywood projects. The company has other creative endeavors that have faced challenges.[]
