The Duchess also expressed being “grateful” for the “creative partnership” she maintains with Netflix, who collaborate with her alongside her As Ever lifestyle brand. Despite Meghan’s optimism about their new venture with the streaming giant, PR guru Mark Borkowski previously expressed his belief that the first-look deal was a “downgrade” for the couple.
He explained that Netflix had, in his opinion, “done a very neat job of pivoting away from two very expensive people who didn’t deliver.”
The Duke and Duchess also signed significant contracts with Penguin Random House – which published Harry’s explosive memoir Spare – and Spotify back in 2020, the latter of which was estimated to be worth $24 million.
