Prince Harry and Meghan Markle just signed a fresh first-look, multi-year deal with Netflix, but not everyone’s toasting the news.
According to royal commentator Richard Fitzwilliams, the renewed partnership will likely “concern” the royal family because, he claims, they still “don’t trust” the couple.
The Sussexes’ updated agreement means Netflix gets first dibs on their project ideas before any other streamer, a notable twist after weeks of rumours that their original five-year pact (inked in 2020) wouldn’t be renewed.
Fans are celebrating the comeback, but palace watchers say the anxiety is real: after a string of headline-grabbing releases, courtiers reportedly worry about more royal-adjacent revelations landing on the world’s biggest platform.
While exact terms of the new deal remain under wraps, a first-look setup signals Netflix wants to stay in business with the brand power of Harry & Meghan.
For the Firm, that could mean bracing for high-impact drops whether lifestyle, documentary, or something more explosive.
Neither Buckingham Palace nor the Sussexes have commented on Fitzwilliams’ claims.
