Meghan Markle’s persistent efforts to maintain relevance in Hollywood have encountered yet another setback, as Netflix has reportedly distanced itself from her latest attempt to be involved in its high-profile projects.
The streaming giant, which once invested heavily in her and Prince Harry’s $100 million deal, now appears to be shifting its focus elsewhere, making it evident that Meghan is no longer a priority. Sources close to the situation reveal that she sought participation in Netflix’s latest blockbuster trailer, only to be ignored—a move that left her feeling sidelined and humiliated once again.
For years, she has tried to transition from a former royal to a Hollywood power player, but her efforts have largely resulted in underwhelming projects and waning interest from major studios. While her Netflix docuseries with Prince Harry initially made headlines, it soon became apparent that audiences were more captivated by royal drama than by Meghan’s personal ambitions. With Netflix now prioritizing content that attracts significant viewership, she finds herself on the outside looking in.
This rejection comes at an especially embarrassing time for the Duchess, who has struggled to secure meaningful entertainment deals since stepping back from royal duties. Despite multiple failed attempts to establish herself as a serious producer and Hollywood influencer, her brand continues to decline. Reports indicate that Netflix executives see little commercial value in her solo projects, which likely explains why she was not included in their latest star-studded trailer.
Adding to her challenges, Meghan has been facing increasing backlash from former fans who accuse her of prioritizing fame over family. Critics argue that instead of relentlessly seeking Hollywood’s attention, she should be focusing on her children—an opinion that has gained traction even among her previous supporters. The phrase “go take care of your kids” has been trending online, serving as a pointed critique of her perceived obsession with securing high-profile opportunities at the expense of her role as a mother.
Despite repeated attempts by her and Prince Harry to portray themselves as victims of the British monarchy, public sympathy appears to be diminishing. Netflix’s apparent snub is yet another indication that Meghan’s influence is fading. Major industry figures are increasingly hesitant to associate their reputations with projects linked to her, especially as her appeal continues to wane.
This latest rejection further reinforces what many have speculated for years—that Meghan Markle’s ambitions in Hollywood far exceed her actual talent and industry value. As Netflix moves forward with successful projects that do not involve her, it is becoming clearer than ever that she is not the entertainment power player she once envisioned herself to be. Whether she acknowledges it or not, Hollywood has spoken, and Meghan Markle is no longer part of the script.
