Meghan Markle has once again crossed every imaginable line with a shameless attempt to exploit Princess Diana’s memory for her own personal gain. In a desperate bid for publicity, she has proven that not even the beloved People's Princess is sacred when it comes to her relentless pursuit of fame and fortune.
As Netflix’s $100 million deal with the Sussexes comes to an end this week, time is running out. In what appears to be a last-ditch effort to remain relevant, Meghan allegedly leaked a fabricated story to the press, claiming that Netflix had offered them a new $20 million deal to produce a documentary about Princess Diana’s death. The audacity of such a move is beyond belief—both in its sheer disrespect and its opportunism.
What makes this situation even more intriguing is that, for perhaps the first time since falling under Meghan’s influence, Prince Harry has firmly put his foot down. After years of following Meghan’s lead—betraying his family, his country, and his heritage at her insistence—Harry has finally drawn a line. Through his representatives, he flatly denied any involvement in a documentary about his mother’s tragic passing. This was not a carefully worded "no comment"; it was a direct contradiction of the story Meghan had planted.
This moment is significant. Harry has spoken extensively about how deeply traumatic his mother’s death was for him. He has shared how it haunts him to this day, and how he has spent much of his adult life trying to process that grief. And yet, Meghan apparently believed that exploiting this trauma for a Netflix paycheck was a brilliant idea. Her actions demonstrate once again that there is nothing she won’t do for fame and money. To her, nothing is sacred—not even the tragic loss of her husband’s mother.
It is essential to remember that Meghan Markle never met Princess Diana. Not once. Yet, she has obsessively copied Diana’s outfits, mimicked her mannerisms, and has attempted to position herself as the "new Diana" from the moment she entered the royal scene. According to her former friend, Ninaki Priddy, Meghan was fascinated with Diana long before she met Harry. She reportedly watched Diana’s interviews on repeat, cried over footage of her funeral multiple times, and studied her every move. This wasn’t the reaction of a grieving fan—it was the calculated behavior of a woman meticulously preparing to ensnare Diana’s vulnerable son.
The thought of someone watching their future husband’s mother’s funeral, taking notes on how to use that tragedy to their advantage, is unsettling. Now, as the Sussexes’ Netflix deal crumbles and their popularity plummets, Meghan’s desperation has become evident. Even some of her former defenders have turned against her. She is so eager to maintain her relevance that she is willing to resurrect Diana’s ghost for yet another publicity stunt.
The wording of this leaked story is particularly telling. It claims that the project would be a solo venture for Harry, where he would serve as co-executive producer, host, and narrator. This suggests that Meghan carefully crafted the story to make it appear as though Harry was at the center of the deal while ensuring that both of them would benefit financially. This is classic narcissistic manipulation—making it seem as though she is thinking of her husband when, in reality, she is only thinking of herself and her bank account.
Consider Harry’s position for a moment. Yes, he has made poor decisions. Yes, he has betrayed his family. Yes, he has willingly participated in Meghan’s schemes. But this is a man who lost his mother in the most devastating and public way possible when he was just 12 years old. He had to walk behind her coffin, grieving, while the entire world watched. And now, his wife wants to exploit that pain for a paycheck. It is beyond cruel—it is outright manipulative.
In an interview before meeting Meghan, Harry was asked about his mother’s charity work and whether he felt pressured to carry on her legacy. His response was heartbreaking. He admitted that, early in life, he didn’t think about it much, but as he grew older, he felt that even filling a small part of the gap she left behind would be a success. When asked if Diana would be proud of him, his emotional response was clear: “Of course, but it’s a shame that she’s not here every day… Depending on what I’m doing, I wonder what it would be like if she was here, what she would say, and how she would be making everyone laugh.”
This is a man who is still grieving his mother, a man who only wanted to make her proud. And Meghan took advantage of that vulnerability without hesitation. There is little doubt that she deliberately targeted Harry because of his deep connection to Diana. She studied his interviews, learned his weak spots, and pursued him with calculated precision.
Now, for the first time, there are signs that Harry may finally be waking up. The speed and firmness with which he shut down the Diana documentary rumor suggest that even he has limits to what he will tolerate. Even he recognizes that commercializing his mother’s death is a step too far.
Beyond this, there have been noticeable signs of trouble within the Sussexes’ marriage. They have been appearing separately more often, their professional lives seem to be diverging, and Meghan has made desperate social media moves—tagging big names but curiously excluding Harry. Their body language during joint appearances has been stiff and awkward. Something is happening behind closed doors, and it doesn’t look good.
Adding to the speculation, Meghan has suddenly started posting pictures of their children after years of keeping them hidden. However, many observers have noted inconsistencies in these photos. The children's appearances seem to change, with Archie always seen in the same outfit, and Lilibet sometimes appearing older than Archie and sometimes younger. Her hair color even seems to fluctuate. These irregularities have led to speculation that Meghan is staging these images in an attempt to regain public interest.
The real tragedy in all of this is what Harry has lost. He gave up his kingdom, his lifelong friends, and his true family for Meghan. And in return, she went behind his back, attempting to orchestrate a documentary about his mother’s death without consulting him. She has commodified his trauma, using it as a bargaining chip to secure a deal with Netflix.
At this point, what does Harry really have left? A wife who views his deepest pain as a business opportunity? A fading public image? The world is watching, and as their Netflix contract expires, Meghan’s panic is evident. This sudden leak about a new deal reeks of desperation, a final attempt to cling to relevance before their brand collapses.
What happens next? The cracks in the Sussexes’ facade are growing more apparent. Harry’s public contradiction of Meghan’s Diana documentary story may be the first significant sign of a shift in their dynamic. The end of their Netflix contract, coupled with their declining public support, suggests that this could be the beginning of the end—not only for their brand but for their marriage as well.
Harry deserves better. Diana deserves better. The royal family deserves better. And maybe, just maybe, Harry is starting to realize that too.
