Three years after their splashy relocation to Hollywood with the aim to make it big in the media business, the Wall Street Journal has declared Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's venture west a "flop." "The big-ticket deals that followed — $100 million at Netflix, more than $20 million at Spotify — have led to more cancellations and rejections than produced shows. Meanwhile, the royal couple's Netflix limited series, Harry & Meghan, still ranks as the service's most watched documentary ever, streamed for more than 97.7 million hours worldwide from December12-18 last year. Has Meghan and Harry's sojourn been as successful as its original billing? Probably not, but the end of 2025 is still two years away ... flop seems a little harsh to us.
