Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s Netflix documentary fails to make an impact, raising questions about the sustainability of their popularity in America.

The show, titled “Heart of Invictus,” follows athletes as they train for the Invictus Games, an event initiated by in 2014 for wounded service members.

Throughout the documentary, opens up about his mental health struggles, with offering her support.

This release is part of the couple's multi-million dollar deal with Netflix, which includes a series of content.

However, the documentary has sparked controversy due to Harry's perceived swipe at the royal family, claiming that he received no help upon returning from Afghanistan.

Adding to the controversy, “Heart of Invictus” failed to secure a spot in Netflix's top 10 most watched shows.

Tom Bauer, author of “Revenge, Meghan, Harry and the War Between the Windsors,” predicted this decline in popularity during an interview with Daily Express US.

Bauer suggests that while the Sussexes have experienced success in recent years, their time in the spotlight may be coming to an end.

He argues that their brand, fueled by deals with Netflix, Spotify, and his book, is temporary and lacks substance.

Newsweek magazine reports that “Heart of Invictus” has not performed well, failing to break into the top 10 streaming charts on Netflix in both America and Britain.

Although specific figures have not been released, the lack of interest in the documentary speaks volumes.

This lack of interest is reminiscent of the couple's previous TV project, “Live to Lead,” which also fell flat despite their previous success with the series “Harry and Meghan.”

In “Live to Lead,” the couple interviewed prominent female leaders, including Gloria Steinem, Greta Thunberg, and Ruth Bader Ginsburg, but failed to captivate audiences.

A senior Hollywood production source suggests that Harry and Meghan should take note of their mixed fortunes on Netflix, as it reveals what viewers do and do not want to watch.

Unfortunately, Prince Harry's new show falls into the latter category, despite its worthy subject matter.

In contrast, Meghan's TV legal drama “Suits,” which was recently acquired by Netflix, has consistently topped the U.S. streaming charts for seven consecutive weeks, according to Variety magazine.

The contrasting success of Meghan's show and the lackluster performance of Harry's documentary raises questions about the couple's future in the entertainment industry.

It seems that Meghan's previous experience in the acting world has proven more successful than Prince Harry's ventures.

As the couple continues to navigate their new roles outside the royal family, it remains to be seen how long their popularity will last.
