Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s Hollywood dream appears to be crumbling as fresh reports claim the couple have been financially wrecked after the loss of their multimillion-dollar Netflix and Spotify contracts. Once hailed as the “royal power couple ready to conquer entertainment,” the Sussexes are now facing what some tabloids describe as a “career free fall.”
The drama began earlier this year when Spotify abruptly ended its partnership with Archewell Audio, calling the collaboration “mutually agreed.” But behind closed doors, insiders alleged the streaming giant was frustrated by the lack of consistent content. Now, whispers from Tinseltown suggest Netflix — the Sussexes’ biggest backer — is quietly pulling the plug too, leaving their $100M+ deal in tatters.
“This is devastating for them,” one Hollywood commentator claimed. “They bet everything on these deals. Without that steady income, their brand loses serious clout.”
Critics argue that Harry and Meghan overestimated their star power, while supporters say they were sabotaged by relentless negative press. Regardless, the financial impact is being exaggerated online, with some claiming the couple could face “ruin” as their lavish Montecito lifestyle collides with shrinking revenue streams.
Social media hasn’t held back either. Memes mocking the “Sussex hustle” are trending, with users joking that Meghan might have to rejoin Suits and Harry could pick up a podcast side gig of his own. Meanwhile, loyal fans insist the pair will bounce back with new ventures, pointing to rumors of book deals, speaking tours, and fresh media projects.
Whether this is the beginning of the end or just another chapter in their rocky Hollywood journey, one thing is certain: Harry and Meghan remain the internet’s favorite obsession — loved, hated, but never ignored.
