Exhausted by the glitz and glamour of royal life, Meghan Markle, the Duchess of Sussex, and her husband, Prince Harry, are throwing in the towel on their highly anticipated polo show, a project that was touted as a major splashy splash in the world of equestrian sports.
According to insiders, the couple’s polo show, produced by them for Netflix, is facing a crisis, with sources revealing that the show is expected to be reworked or even scrapped due to its disappointing box office performance.
Making matters worse, Meghan and Harry’s decision to shun the traditional royal palaces and instead opt for a more “relaxed” and “casual” approach to their royal duties has not helped the duo’s star power.
“It’s a big blow to the duke and duchess, who had been counting on this show to jump-start their post-royal careers,” an insider said. “But now, it seems like the show is just not cutting it, and they are starting to feel a sense of exhaustion from the whole thing.”
The couple, who stepped back from their senior royal roles in 2020, had high hopes for their Netflix show, which was expected to be a major talking point in the world of equestrian sports. But it seems that despite their efforts, the show is falling flat.
