The awkward way Meghan Markle undermined Prince Harry in Netflix meetings: report
Meghan Markle would allegedly talk over and interrupt her husband, Prince Harry, in meetings with Netflix partners.
The Duchess of Sussex would touch the Duke of Sussex’s arm or thigh before taking over the conversation, insiders told Variety in an interview published Tuesday.
According to sources, the seasoned actress believed Hollywood was her territory.
Michael J. Kump, an attorney for Markle, 44, told the outlet that the source’s remarks “seem[ed] calculated to play into the misogynistic characterization of her bossing her husband around.”
Additionally, Harry, 41, claimed the remarks were “categorically false.”
A rep for the couple, who wed in 2018, wasn’t immediately available to Page Six for comment.
Variety published a series of allegations against Markle and Harry after Page Six reported that Netflix had cut ties with the royals, even after extending their partnership last August.
The outlet also alleged the “Suits” alum would “disappear” when she would get offended during Zoom meetings with Netflix.
“The mood in the building is ‘We’re done,’” an insider for the streaming service claimed, alleging that her behavior “ruffled feathers in meetings.”
The “Remember Me” star’s attorney, however, combated these allegations, stating that she “works from home, is the mother of young children aged 4 and 6, and often encounters children who enter the space unexpectedly during a meeting.”
“Independent of being a parent who works from home, Meghan is also conscious of shielding her team from the distraction of children,” Kump said.
“Nearly all professionals can attest to needing to turn off the audio or camera during a virtual meeting at some point during many hours of virtual business calls.”
Additionally, Netflix was reportedly “blindsided” when Markle and Harry opened up about leaving royal life during their “Harry & Meghan” docuseries with Oprah Winfrey in March 2021.
At the time, the duo had just signed their $100 million deal with Netflix, giving the company the right to share details about their time with the royal family and their 2020 resignation.
While with Netflix, Markle and Harry released several series, including their 2023 documentary, “Harry & Meghan,” their “Polo” documentary and “With Love, Meghan.”
