This guidance comes in the wake of a significant setback for the couple, as Meghan's Spotify contract was abruptly terminated after just one season.
Speculation has been rife regarding the couple's next project, with some experts suggesting that the Duchess might pursue solo endeavors, distancing herself from the brand image associated with the union of Prince Harry and Meghan.
Insiders close to Meghan have apparently warned her that her future prospects with Harry are bleak, emphasizing the need for her to focus on individual projects.
By venturing into independent ventures, they believe Meghan would have a greater number of opportunities to revive her career, allowing the couple some breathing room and the chance to rebuild their confidence.
Although this remains hopeful speculation, it underscores the potential paths Meghan might explore. The announcement of the end of Meghan's Spotify contract was made through a joint statement by Spotify and Archewell, the couple's company, which portrayed the decision as a mutual agreement.
However, reports have emerged suggesting that Meghan was deeply distressed by the news and faced criticism from top executives at the streaming service. Bill Simmons, the head of podcast innovation and monetization at Spotify, went as far as referring to the couple as "grifters" in a profane outburst, insinuating that his involvement in the initial negotiations could have averted certain issues.
This incident shook Meghan, as she found herself subjected to harsh public criticism from within her own organization. It served as a stark wake-up call that significant changes are necessary to salvage their public standing.
The Sussexes are reportedly working diligently to secure approval for new projects before their Netflix deal expires. According to a royal columnist, Meghan and her team at Archewell are actively pitching film and television ideas to Netflix until the deal concludes in 2025. Sources within Netflix have revealed that Archewell has proposed various scripted content across different genres.
Furthermore, alongside the previously reported spin-off inspired by "Great Expectations," there are discussions of TV sitcoms and movie collaborations in the pipeline. Meghan seems to be modeling herself after Bonnie Hammer, an executive at NBC who played a pivotal role in launching Meghan's career through the show "Suits."
However, Netflix has denied any imminent termination of their partnership with the couple, affirming that the company deeply values their association with Archewell Productions.
