It seems the drama surrounding Meghan Markle never ends. The latest bombshell? Reports are swirling that Meghan has been fired by her agency, WME (William Morris Endeavor).
According to multiple sources, Meghan Markle has been dropped by WME after months of speculation about their working relationship. While the agency denies it, insisting they still represent her, industry insiders claim otherwise. One source even stated that Meghan was let go because she was “too demanding and difficult to work with.” Sound familiar?
I predicted this last month. Why? Because of the Vanity Fair exposé that painted Meghan in a less-than-flattering light. If Meghan were still represented by WME, Ari Emanuel—WME’s powerful CEO—would have killed that story before it ever saw the light of day. The fact that it was published tells us everything we need to know: WME is no longer in Meghan’s corner.
The tipping point reportedly came in January 2024, when Meghan allegedly had a major outburst during a meeting. She demanded detailed decks and plans, though it’s unclear whether this was for her personal brand or the Archewell Foundation. This incident led to a dispute, and according to sources, Ari Emanuel was “completely done” with her after that.
While WME claims they’re still working on some Archewell Foundation projects, it’s clear they’ve distanced themselves from Meghan personally. One Hollywood source told Page Six, “WME is definitely not working on Megan’s personal business.”
The Twitter Reactions: Pure Gold
As always, Twitter didn’t hold back. Here are some of the best reactions:
Megan Markle Parody Account:
“I’m absolutely flabbergasted by the news from WME CEO Ari Emanuel. Can you believe they’ve banned me? Me, the Duchess of Sussex? My requests for royal treatment on every project were deemed ridiculous demands. Well, I suppose it’s their loss.
Another Parody Account:
“All the doors are closing, and WME just slammed one in her face. Even with all the money, connections, and delusions of grandeur, Meghan still managed to speedrun from fighting freedom to finding failure in under five years. That’s efficiency!”
Kate Austin:
“President Donald Trump opening his book and saying, ‘Meghan Markle is terrible.’”
The consensus? Meghan’s reputation is taking hit after hit, and the doors are slamming shut one by one.
This isn’t the first time Meghan has been dropped by a major player. Spotify, Penguin Random House, and Sunshine Sachs have all cut ties with her. And if rumors are to be believed, Netflix might be next.
The chaos surrounding her recent rebranding efforts—complete with logo issues and trademark disputes—only adds fuel to the fire. If WME were still fully behind her, the rollout would have been much smoother. Instead, it’s been a disaster.
What’s Next for Meghan?
So, where does Meghan go from here? With WME reportedly out of the picture and Netflix potentially following suit, her options are dwindling. Will she pivot to another rebrand? Launch a new venture? Or will she retreat from the public eye altogether?
One thing’s for sure: Meghan’s ability to create chaos shows no signs of slowing down.
