Harry and Meghan brutally roasted for Netflix deal – as TV comic jeers at them for raking in the cash despite having ‘no plan’ whatsoever for their shows

Harry and Meghan brutally roasted for Netflix deal – as TV comic jeers at them for raking in the cash despite having ‘no plan’ whatsoever for their shows

The Duke And Duchess Of SusSєx were mercilessly ridiculed for their US TV and film careers and their Netflix deal – in front of the streaming bosses, who handed them their multimillion dollar venture.

Comic John Mulaney made a savage dig at the former senior Royals for having ‘no specific plan’ when they landed a content deal with American powerhouse Netflix.

The sharp US stand-up comic mocked Harry and Meghan in front of a packed house including Netflix’s most senior bosses as they unveiled their 2025 shows and film line up.

His comment comes amid speculation in media circles of troubles with the $100m TV production deal for the couple, branded by one Spotify executive as ‘grifters’ .

Interestingly in a glossy PR brochure, promoting the biggest 2025 releases, the ex actress’ new cooking show With Love, Meghan did not feature.

Neither the show nor any other SusSєx projects were referenced during Netflix Chief Content Officer Bela Bajaria’s hour-long presentation of their biggest projects this year.

Markle’s new lifestyle and cooking show hits the network in March. 

Mulaney took aim at the California-based Royals during his comedic stage announcement of his new Netflix chat show Everybody’s Live.

He noted of his show: ‘This is a really fun experiment.

‘Not since Harry and Meghan has Netflix given more money to someone without a specific plan.’

His barb had the audience in sтιтches and some members of the ᴀssembled media looking shocked – given how Netflix have stood by The SusSєxes for almost five years.

Recently reports claimed Harry’s autumn-released polo reality series had performed terribly on streaming worldwide.

Mulaney admitted that his own show too would not be judged on ratings.

He said: ‘We will never be relevant. We will never be your source for news. We will always be reckless. Netflix will always provide us with data that we will ignore.’

During the 2025 Next on Netflix Preview Event, held at The Egyptian Theatre in Los Angeles and broadcast around the world, dozens of projects were mentioned and star guests across genres attended Including Ben Affleck and Tina Fey. The SusSєxes did not attend.

Harry and Meghan’s projects were not mentioned once in the upcoming projects announcements.

The glossy PR brochure referencing the biggest productions of 2025 featured games, reality TV, drama series and films.

The section, which would be relevant to With Love, Meghan called ‘You’re Not Ready To Get Real’, promoted other reality shows including an Eddie Murphy doc, behind the scenes at the Dallas Cowboys franchise, Formula 1 Drive To Survive and dating hit Love Is Blind.

To seemingly add to the drama Netflix expressed their ‘excitement’ at a ‘a very posh series coming later this year that will really spice up your life.’

A full 90-second unseen clip was played of Victoria Beckham’s new reality docu-series, as yet formally unтιтled.

The Beckhams, once close allies of The SusSєxes, are understood to have fallen out with them over alleged media matters.

Reports claimed that the couples had disagreed over claims of leaking inside information to media outlets.

While publicly nothing has been said, in recent months Posh and Becks have allied with King Charles and The Duke And Duchess Of Edinburgh publicly.

The pop star and ex England soccer captain have not been seen with Harry and Meghan, whose wedding they attended, for over year.

Mulaney’s quip was a key talking point in the schedule presentation as he confirmed his new chat show whilst Bajaria promised that 2025 would be the streamer’s biggest year.
