Meghan Markle and Prince Harry may soon find themselves at a crossroads as their high-profile deal with Netflix appears to be drawing to a close. However, a surprising ally within the streaming giant could offer the couple a much-needed boost.

Recent reports suggest Netflix is unlikely to renew its multi-million-dollar contract with the Duke and Duchess of Sussex. The pair initially signed with the platform in 2020 through their Archewell Productions company, shortly after stepping away from royal duties and relocating to the United States.

While their docuseries delivered one of Netflix’s biggest documentary premieres, other Archewell projects failed to spark much audience interest. As a result, insiders claim Netflix has opted not to open talks about extending the current agreement.

Still, there’s a glimmer of hope. Co-CEO Ted Sarandos is believed to remain a strong supporter of the couple — especially Meghan — and may ultimately influence the company’s decision. According to journalist Alison Boshoff, “Ted Sarandos remains a huge fan, of Meghan’s in particular, and his support is a powerful secret weapon.”

This could be especially encouraging for Meghan, who is said to be eager to develop a third season of her lifestyle series With Love, Meghan. Although the first season debuted in March and failed to break into Netflix’s top 300 shows for the first half of 2025, a second season is still slated for release later this year.

Boshoff noted, “There will be a third series of the Duchess’s lifestyle show With Love, Meghan, if she wants to make one. And I hear she does.”
