Meghan Markle<\/a> “has won” and her critics have to eat “humble pie” after Netflix<\/a> signed a new deal with her and Prince Harry, despite reports claiming they will be dropped, a royal commentator has claimed.<\/a><\/p>\n

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex signed a new “multi-year first look” deal with the streaming giant, it was announced on Monday.<\/p>\n

Archewell Productions, Harry and Meghan’s media company, christened the new deal an “extension of their partnership”.<\/p>\n

The announcement featured all of the Sussexes’ previous projects for the streaming giant, Polo: With Love, Meghan; Heart of Invictus; Harry & Meghan; and Live to Lead, and shared details of new ones.<\/p>\n

That included a new season and a Christmas special for Meghan’s cooking show, a new feature drama based on the book Meet Me at the Lake and a new documentary titled Masaka Kids, A Rhythm Within.<\/p>\n

Now, a royal commentator said the latest announcement was a slap in the face to Meghan’s critics, who savaged the Duchess after reports emerged claiming the Netflix<\/a> deal was dead.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Meghan Markle “has won” and her critics have to eat “humble pie” after Netflix signed a new deal…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":62929,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[33509,33510,96,59,2744,100,392,11535,983,223,3345,1332,2747,56,54,55],"class_list":["post-62928","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-entertainment","tag-creative-partnership","tag-criticism","tag-entertainment","tag-gb","tag-harry-and-meghan","tag-meghan-markle","tag-netflix","tag-netflix-deal","tag-prince-harry","tag-royal-family","tag-royal-family-live","tag-royal-family-news","tag-royal-news","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom","tag-unitedkingdom"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/62928","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=62928"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/62928\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/62929"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=62928"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=62928"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=62928"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
