Meghan Markle's Netflix Deal in 'Toilet'

The relationship between Meghan Markle and Netflix appears to be severely strained, according to recent analyses. An expert has delivered a blunt assessment, stating the partnership is "in the toilet." This comes amid reports that talent agency WME, though still representing Markle and her Archewell production company, has seen Ari Emanuel step back from personally handling her account.

Further indicating a cooling relationship, reports emerged that Meghan Markle was considered for a role in the third season of Netflix's "The Gentlemen." However, the show's creator, Guy Ritchie, reportedly dismissed the possibility outright. While initial discussions were described as preliminary, Netflix's apparent refusal to cast her is seen by commentators as a significant blow, suggesting a lack of commitment to future projects.

Sources close to Meghan, however, offered a different perspective, suggesting she might have been used for publicity for the second season. Conversely, individuals close to the production pushed back, calling the show "not a show in need of stunt casting." The public silence from Team Sussex when initial casting rumors surfaced, followed by Netflix's alleged lack of public defense, has fueled speculation about the future of their collaboration.
