Meg’s Career Collapses as Thomas Markle and Netflix Shake Hands: $100 Million Deal Goes Up in Smoke

Meghan Markle's career has taken a major hit as her father, Thomas Markle, strikes a deal with Netflix, effectively turning their $100 million contract to ashes.

Prior to the Queen's passing at the age of 96 last month, Prince Harry and Meghan had numerous projects in the works.

Meghan's podcast, “Archetypes,” had already launched a month earlier, while Harry's tell-all memoir is set to be released by the end of this year.

Additionally, filming for the Duke and Duchess of Sussex's docuseries with Netflix was well underway.

However, the situation has now taken a turn, as Tatler reports that the couple's forthcoming docuseries may be indefinitely shelved due to disagreements with producers over extensive cuts they wish to make.

The Sussex docuseries was planned to coincide with the release of season 5 of the popular show “The Crown” in November, which will cover events from the 1990s and potentially portray Harry's father, King Charles III, in an unfavorable light.

Rumors circulated that Netflix and Meghan Markle might have terminated their $100 million contract, feeling that they couldn't generate enough profit from the partnership.

Furthermore, Netflix has shifted its focus towards Thomas Markle, Meghan's estranged father.

There are speculations that Thomas Markle and Netflix have entered into a contract related to sharing Meghan's personal information.

If indeed Thomas Markle has teamed up with Netflix to sabotage his daughter's career, it would come as a massive shock to Meghan, who faced public backlash after announcing her departure from the Royal Family to move to the USA.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have been working on their docuseries as part of their multi-million dollar Netflix deal for over a year.

Despite Netflix not having made an official announcement about the Sussex project, they had hoped to release the docuseries in December, following the fifth season of “The Crown” on November 9th.

However, sources now reveal that the couple desires further edits to the highly anticipated show, potentially delaying its release until later in 2023.

In the midst of these developments, Thomas Markle, the Duchess of Sussex's father, watched snippets of Queen Elizabeth II's funeral alongside his son, Thomas Jr. Thomas Jr. expressed his overwhelming emotions at witnessing the respect and honor accorded to every individual present at the ceremony.

Thomas Jr., who has openly criticized his famous sister, called for Meghan to reconcile with their father, emphasizing the importance of showing respect towards him, especially during his health struggles.

He also extended the invitation for Meghan to make amends with their sister Samantha and himself, highlighting that everyone makes mistakes and it is never too late to do the right thing.

This renewed call for reconciliation stems from the strained relationship between Meghan and her father leading up to her wedding to Prince Harry in 2018.

Additionally, it is reported that Harry's memoir, expected to be released next year, will undergo edits to ensure it aligns with the current context following the Queen's passing.

The report asserts that there has been no significant improvement in the relationship between the Sussexes and the royal family, which may result in a softer approach from the couple.

With the Queen no longer present, it is suggested that the Sussexes will have the freedom to express themselves openly about their in-laws.

An additional source suggests that Harry's memoir serves as an opportunity for him to share his personal experiences and finally speak about his own life.

While his family undoubtedly plays a part in his story, the memoir is not merely a record-setting exercise but rather a means for Harry to liberate himself and move forward.

In conclusion, Meghan Markle's career faces a setback as her father's collaboration with Netflix jeopardizes their $100 million deal.
