Is the royal Netflix fairy tale ending for Prince Harry and Meghan Markle? After their years of partnership with the streaming giant, the estranged royal couple is once again under the spotlight. And this time- their deal with Netflix might be at stake. The couple recently produced a new series revolving around the elitist sport, Polo. But, it might not receive the expected love from the viewers and critics. Read on to know more!
Will Prince Harry And Meghan Work With Netflix Again?
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s latest series could be the ‘final nail in the coffin’ for the couple’s £80 million Netflix deal, a brand expert has noted. The duo are executive producers of the five-episode series about Polo- which was shot at the US Open Polo Championship in Wellington, Florida. This latest series could spell disaster for their forthcoming partnership with the streaming platform.
Even though the Sussexes believed in the sport, it failed to impress the fans or critics. Some of the reviews were along the lines of an “unintentionally hilarious” polo profile and a “bafflingly little” presence of Harry. And now, a brand and culture expert, Nick Ede, has shed light on the same and highlighted that Prince Harry’s new series has failed to get good reviews. He also added that this marks another “foray” into production from the Sussexes.
While speaking to The Daily Mail, Ede said, “This could potentially be a nail in the coffin for their deal with the streaming giant who now use algorithms to make sure their programming is perfect for their subscribers.” Harry and Meghan appear in the series once during episode five where the Prince interviewed a Polo legend, Adolfo Cambiaso. For the unversed, Adolfo is one of the best players who now competes against his own 18-year-old son, Poroto.
