Prince Harry, Meghan's Netflix Drama: Polo Rivalry

0:00On March 24, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are reportedly developing a new Netflix drama about two rival families locked in tense competition in The Polo World. The untitled series is set in the equestrian hub of Wellington, Florida, and aims to spotlight the sport beyond its elite circles. Its early in development, pinned by writer Francisco Exha, known for shows like The Dynasty Reboot, this comes hot on the heels of their polo documentary, which drew just 500,000 views worldwide and ranked low on Netflix charts last year. Critics called it tedious and niche, with little screen time for Harry himself. Meanwhile, their lifestyle brand, as ever, wrapped up after two seasons, and Netflix quietly ended the partnership. Royal watchers are raising eyebrows, noting parallels between the show's family feuds and the Sussex's own rift with the Windsors. And see irony in the timing, especially after Disney plus struck gold with a similar glamorous polo tale called Rivals.

1:01Tensions surfaced in a recent variety piece alleging Netflix execs are fed up, citing awkward meetings where Meghan supposedly stepped away from calls, or spoke over Harry. Insiders claim the streamer feels done with a couple, but Netflix bosses and the Sussex's lawyer fired back, calling it false, and blaming. Parenting duties for any Zoom glitches. As Netflix stays mum on the drama status under their scaled back deal, eyes are on whether this project can revive their streaming streak or join. The growing list of misses.
