Were you looking forward to a third season of Meghan Markle’s Netflix show, ‘With Love, Meghan’? If so, you might be disappointed. Reports indicate that following the second season’s performance, a third season is reportedly not in the cards for the Duchess of Sussex’s lifestyle series.
Poor Ratings and Brutal Reviews
According to Netflix’s ratings, ‘With Love, Meghan’ failed to break into the Top 10 after its first week. Adding to the challenges, the show received some harsh reviews from critics, which may have deterred potential viewers. Furthermore, the series didn’t generate the anticipated buzz, partly due to its release coinciding with the major news of Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift’s engagement announcement.
Even before Season 2 premiered, there was speculation about a potential third season. However, the reported poor numbers have put that future in jeopardy. Pundit Arena betting expert Joe Lyons noted, “Following reports that With Love, Meghan is under review by Netflix, the odds suggest we may have already seen the final season. At 1/2 to be canceled after season two. Its future looks uncertain…”
What’s Next for the Duchess?
With the future of ‘With Love, Meghan’ uncertain, attention is shifting to what Meghan Markle might pursue next. Even if her “first-look” content deal with Netflix doesn’t yield further series, she still has her lifestyle brand, which has been a significant focus. Experts are weighing in on the odds for her next ventures.
Lyons suggests that a memoir is a strong possibility, with odds at 8/11, following in the footsteps of her husband, Prince Harry, who released his book in 2023. Entering the fashion world is another plausible avenue, with odds at 3/1. A return to acting also remains a possibility, with odds of 6/1 for her to reappear on screen.
A Holiday Special Still in the Works
Despite the reported struggles of ‘With Love, Meghan,’ Netflix has confirmed that Meghan has a holiday special already in development with the streamer. Archewell Productions announced, “This December, join Meghan in Montecito for a magical holiday celebration. Together, friends and family deck the halls, create holiday feasts, craft heartfelt gifts, and share lots of laughs — with simple how-tos to follow at home.”
While the future of her series may be uncertain, Meghan Markle continues to explore various creative avenues, leveraging her platform and brand in diverse ways.
