Ever since the release of With Love, Meghan, the project has been nothing short of a disaster for Netflix. Not only has it caused headaches for the platform's executives, but it has also put CEO Greg Peters in a difficult position. The massive $100 million deal given to Meghan Markle has become a source of major contention among Netflix's board of directors, creating significant internal divisions over the platform’s future direction.
Reports suggest Meghan Markle is in full-blown panic mode as *With Love, Meghan* struggles to gain traction. Despite Netflix’s efforts to market the project, audience engagement has been disappointing. What’s even more revealing is that what Netflix is calling *Season 2* is essentially just leftover footage from the original production, divided into two parts to stretch content. The entirety of *With Love, Meghan* reportedly amounts to 16 episodes, but rather than producing fresh content, Netflix opted to split the material and release it in phases.
One of the most surprising developments in this unfolding drama is Netflix’s decision to cancel an entire behind-the-scenes miniseries that was meant to accompany *With Love, Meghan*. Initially, Netflix had planned to release a three-episode special filled with behind-the-scenes footage, exclusive interviews, and never-before-seen moments from the show. This miniseries was supposed to premiere in May, with an official announcement expected around Easter.
However, a sudden shift occurred when Greg Peters convinced the board to scrap the project entirely. This decision reportedly blindsided Meghan, leaving her feeling betrayed—especially since about 60% of Netflix’s board had previously been supportive of her content endeavors.
Making matters worse for Meghan, Netflix has also opted to cut several key scenes she considered among her best work from the upcoming installment of *With Love, Meghan*. Insiders reveal that the board is now debating whether to officially label the second batch of episodes as *Season 2* or simply as *Part Two*. While no final decision has been made, this small but significant change could impact how the project is perceived by the public.
Unsurprisingly, Meghan is reportedly furious over these recent developments. Sources claim she has had multiple heated exchanges with Greg Peters, particularly over his role in canceling the behind-the-scenes miniseries, which was set to be titled *With Love, Meghan: Behind the Kitchen*. This special was meant to highlight Meghan’s passion for cooking, featuring unseen outtakes, guest appearances, and personal insights. However, Netflix’s emergency board meeting—called in response to concerning subscriber loss data—led to its abrupt cancellation.
Netflix’s willingness to invest $100 million in Meghan Markle’s content has already faced scrutiny, with many arguing that it was an unnecessary expenditure. Some believe it has contributed to the platform’s rate hikes and growing dissatisfaction among subscribers. While the *With Love, Meghan* project is moving forward due to complex contractual obligations, Netflix is clearly looking for ways to limit its financial exposure.
Despite Netflix’s attempts to downplay the situation, internal frustrations are evident. Greg Peters’ latest move signals that the streaming giant may be re-evaluating its long-term partnership with Meghan Markle. While *With Love, Meghan* will continue—at least for now—Netflix appears to be distancing itself from additional content linked to the project.
Had *With Love, Meghan: Behind the Kitchen* moved forward, it would have added another three hours of content, something many believe Netflix subscribers were not asking for. The board’s last-minute cancellation may have saved Netflix from even greater backlash, but for Meghan Markle, this marks yet another professional setback.
