Meghan Markle is gearing up for her latest project, a Netflix cookery series titled With Love, Meghan, set to premiere next month alongside her new lifestyle brand, **As Ever**. However, industry insiders caution that the **Duchess of Sussex** may be on thin ice with the streaming giant if her new venture fails to meet expectations.
Renowned royal author **Hugo Vickers** has weighed in on the scrutiny surrounding Meghan, particularly in light of the **backlash over her recent rebranding controversy**. The duchess faced criticism after the **mayor of Porreres, Majorca**, accused her of using a logo resembling the town’s **historic coat of arms** for her **As Ever** brand—an issue that even sparked discussions of legal action.
“She attracts hostility because people want to attack her,” **Vickers explained**, but emphasized that **Netflix’s main concern isn’t public perception—it’s performance**.
"A company like Netflix wants value for money. If it doesn’t work, then it’ll get axed like everything else,"* he stated.
Since stepping down from royal duties in **2020**, both Meghan and **Prince Harry** have faced ongoing criticism for leveraging their royal connections in their business ventures. With **With Love, Meghan**, the duchess is making a **bold move to establish herself as an independent brand**—but the question remains:
Will audiences embrace her latest venture, or could this be her final chance with Netflix?
Only time will tell if Meghan’s new direction will be a recipe for success—or another project left on the cutting room floor.
