The Crown: Meghan and Harry have given Netflix ‘gold’ says Phillips

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are losing out in the battle with their rivals the Beckhams.

The Sussexes were once the King and Queen of Netflix, having signed a multi-million-dollar contract which expires in 2025.

However, their popularity fell off a cliff on the streaming giant’s platform in 2023, according to new figures.

Harry & Meghan’s Limited Series Volumes I and II had just 1.9million views and 12.6million total views across the second half of the year.

And to make matters worse, their former pals turned enemies, David and Victoria Beckham, achieved the top spot for global vioewing with a staggering 43.9million views for their documentary betwene July and December.

According to The Mail, ‘Beckham’ is number one with 3.5 times the viewing figures and 208.5million hours viewed in the first two months alone.

While the Sussex’s doc was an instant hit, it seems viewers have now lost interest.

The reason for the Harry and Meghan’s waning popularity one Netflix could be down to one factor.

Speaking to The Mirror, royal commentator Richard Fitzwilliams shed light on the Sussexes’ Netflix deal, which is due for renewal next year.

He pointed out: “It runs out next year and Netflix are no longer producing the series of The Crown, as they previously were. They might therefore have less interest in the Sussexes.”

“If they lost this contract, with Archewell, their business and charitable foundation, having so few donors, they might well be in financial trouble. Since their exposes of royal life has made megabucks, but little else has made money, the Royal Family better hope that this unpredictable and ruthlessly ambitious couple stays with Netflix.”
