The Duke
and Duchess of Sussex have been told that the "clock is ticking" over
their lack of Netflix content.
Prince
Harry and Meghan Markle signed a lucrative contract with the streaming giant
back in September 2020, but have yet to provide it any real, major content.
One royal
commentator has alleged that the company may not be able to afford the royal
pair after a series of layoffs, as well as introducing advertising to the
website.
That same
commentator believes a "newly humbled" Netflix won't have much time
for the Sussexes, who have yet to finish up any major projects for the
platform.
Royal
commentator Daniella Elser questioned whether the deal would still be fruitful
for Netflix, and also mentioned the similarities to that of the Spotify deal.
Elser said:
"Since that earnings call in April, Netflix has laid off hundreds of staff
and made the drastic decision to finally introduce advertising to the platform.
"Can
the company still afford to carry big name stars who don’t deliver on their
books? Just how much patience and faith will this newly humbled Netflix have
for their yet-to-perform big-name hires?

She
continued: "In April, Meghan’s first outing for the audio giant called
Archetypes was announced, promising a 'groundbreaking' series would launch
during the northern summer.
"With
only weeks to go before autumn begins, again, the clock is ticking."
A lucrative
Spotify contract as well as a Netflix deal have yet to prove fruitful for the
Duke and Duchess of Sussex, who so far have yet to release more than a handful
of projects, news.com.au.
