Meghan Markle missed out on a Daytime Emmy Award for her cooking show, With Love, Meghan, prompting royal critics to question whether the Sussexes should continue making TV shows. The Duchess was nominated in the Outstanding Lifestyle Programme category but lost to A Different Breed, a documentary about dogs streaming on Prime Video.
Critics Question Meghan's Production Credentials
Royal commentator Richard Fitzwilliams led the criticism in a post on X, writing: "She really is going to the dogs with what she produces. She did not attend. She was, I gather, fine in Suits but such talent as she has has extremely strict limits."
Outside her lifestyle programmes, documentaries featuring Prince Harry and Meghan have divided opinion between traditional monarchists and progressives, as they break the royal protocol of keeping private life out of the media. Supporters view the projects as shedding light on guarded royal life, while others believe family rifts should be handled privately.
Meghan's Next TV Role
Meghan has landed a role as a judge on Junior MasterChef Australia, which is expected to start filming early next year. She will head to Melbourne for several weeks of filming, though it remains unclear whether Harry, Archie, and Lilibet will join her.
Despite the Emmy loss, securing a nomination is widely considered a milestone among actors. The Netflix series With Love, Meghan, which released two seasons and a festive special last year, has not yet been officially renewed for a third after viewership declined.
Harry's Screen Appearances
Harry featured in the Netflix docuseries Harry and Meghan, covering the couple's early relationship, marriage, conflicts with the British press and royal institution, and their step back as working royals. He also appeared in a two-hour special with Oprah Winfrey, where the couple discussed their royal exit, family dynamics, and mental health.
Readers are invited to vote in the poll on whether Meghan and Harry should continue making TV shows and join the discussion in the comments.
