Meghan Markle and Prince Harry are racking up projects on Netflix. Just a few months after announcing the renewal of their contract with the streaming platform, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex will participate in the production of an adaptation of a best-selling book.
The collaboration between the Sussexes and Netflix has been the subject of passionate debate for several years now. While rumors about the non-renewal of their contract with the streaming giant were circulating, Bela Bajaria, Netflix's Chief Content Officer, put an end to them by announcing that the platform had "expanded its creative partnership" with Archewell Productions.
"Harry and Meghan are influential voices whose stories resonate with audiences around the world. The reception of their work speaks for itself: Harry & Meghan has given viewers an intimate glimpse into their lives and has quickly become one of our most-watched documentary series," she said in a statement. “More recently, fans were inspired by With Love, Meghan, with products from the new As Ever line selling out in record time. We are delighted to continue our partnership with Archewell Productions and entertain our members together.” As part of this contract renewal, Netflix subscribers will soon have the opportunity to discover this project, which will be produced by the Duke and Duchess of Sussex.
