Netflix Denies Break With Sussexes as Legal Team Rebuts Conduct Claims

The company cites ongoing projects under a first‑look pact following its exit from As Ever, with legal rebuttals to anonymous allegations.

Overview

  • Variety reported unnamed insiders saying Netflix’s patience had run out with Harry and Meghan, alleging poor performance, tense meetings and surplus As Ever inventory of about $10 million.
  • A Netflix spokesperson called the report absolutely untrue, and content chief Bela Bajaria said the streamer still has an active relationship with the couple and projects in development, including a documentary.
  • Attorney Michael J. Kump rejected claims about Meghan’s behavior in meetings as misogynistic, noting she works from home with young children, while Prince Harry labeled the allegations categorically false.
  • The pair’s 2020 Netflix pact was converted to a less‑binding first‑look deal in August 2025, and Netflix ended its role with Meghan’s As Ever brand in early March.
  • Industry sources told Variety some filmmakers and agents see limited value in partnering with Archewell, even as Meghan continues As Ever product launches and public appearances.
