Meghan Markle Headed for Humiliation as Netflix Dreams Collapse and Acting Rumors Resurface
Meghan Markle is once again at the center of harsh scrutiny as her ambitious Netflix lifestyle show With Love, Meghan faces disappointing reviews and underwhelming ratings. What was meant to cement her status as a global lifestyle figure has instead left her battling whispers of failure and looming humiliation.
According to a well-placed insider who spoke with RadarOnline, Meghan “put her heart into this show,” but the results are not living up to her expectations. Viewership has reportedly fallen short, leaving the Duchess of Sussex at what the source described as a “crossroads” in her career.
The show was supposed to be the next chapter in Meghan’s carefully crafted post-royal identity. Instead, Hollywood insiders argue that she is still widely seen as “an actress first and foremost, not a lifestyle guru.” That perception has thrown cold water on Meghan’s efforts to reinvent herself as a media powerhouse beyond her royal ties.
The source even claimed Meghan is being quietly urged to return to acting. But such a move, they warn, would be nothing short of humiliating for the former Suits star. “Going back to acting is going to be a humiliating journey,” the insider alleged.
In a brutally harsh assessment, the source added, “The truth is, she was a terrible actress. No one in Hollywood is going to want to cast her in big projects, as she is also seen as toxic.” These biting remarks reflect the unforgiving climate Meghan faces as she attempts to rebuild her reputation in an industry that thrives on both hype and skepticism.
The insider further suggested that Meghan is “doomed to chase something that will not succeed, like everything else she touches.” Such criticism echoes a recurring narrative that the Duchess struggles to establish a long-term, successful identity outside the royal family.
Money, according to reports, is also a pressing concern. The insider noted, “Everyone knows money is a real factor here. Meghan has been determined to carve her own identity beyond the royals, but if the lifestyle projects stall, acting remains a strong option.” For Meghan and Prince Harry, financial independence has always been a central part of their post-royal brand, but setbacks like this could test the strength of their empire.
The timing of these revelations is particularly striking, given Meghan’s recent comments on her past acting career. During an appearance on the Aspire podcast with host Emma Grede, Meghan admitted that she sometimes looks back fondly on her days on set.
“Sometimes [I miss acting],” she confessed. She added that working with a large production crew on With Love, Meghan reminded her how much she enjoyed being on set. “I love being around a crew,” she said, reflecting on the camaraderie that defined her earlier career.

While those comments may have sounded innocent, critics are now seizing on them as proof that Meghan is preparing the ground for a potential Hollywood comeback. But whether the industry would welcome her back with open arms remains a matter of fierce debate.
Observers note that Meghan’s Hollywood reputation is complicated. Though she gained recognition as Rachel Zane on Suits, her departure from acting and entry into the royal family marked a dramatic career shift. Returning now, after years of controversy and media battles, could be viewed as a step backward rather than forward.
At the same time, Meghan has staked her post-royal future on ventures like Archetypes and her Netflix projects. If With Love, Meghan fails to gain traction, it raises broader questions about how sustainable her and Harry’s global brand really is.
The Sussexes have always argued that their exit from the royal family was about freedom and the ability to build meaningful projects on their own terms. Yet, each setback adds to the narrative that they are struggling to live up to those lofty goals.
For Meghan, the humiliation of being pushed back toward acting might be especially bitter. After all, her story has long been framed as one of evolution, from actress to duchess to global changemaker. Returning to Hollywood in search of relevance could undo much of that carefully curated narrative.
Still, Meghan remains determined. Those close to her insist she is focused on making her lifestyle brand a success and isn’t ready to give up. Whether Hollywood, or the public, will give her the second chance she may soon seek is another matter entirely.
