Prince Harry and Meghan Markle had their Netflix show Polo taken 'out of their control', an insider has claimed. Receiving two stars or less out of five across the board, reports claimed that Netflix is 'exhausted' with Harry and Meghan, according to the Mail's Alison Boshoff. Read the full mail+ report here.

The Prince, 40, only appears a handful of times throughout the five episodes, with his wife Meghan, 43, appearing even less - despite both being executive producers of the series. But the couple allegedly had little control over the programme, a source told Closer magazine.

'Truth is, it was pretty much out of their control. The bosses wanted the series to appeal to the masses and pushed this reality TV slant so it's not entirely their fault,' the source reportedly said. They added: 'It's pretty ironic because they've always acted so above this sort of thing and now, here they are producing the exact type of content they've always looked down on.'.

It comes as Meghan's favoured magazine The Cut appears to have turned against her, with a new article saying her projects 'keep flopping'. Meghan Markle and Prince Harry arrive at the Grand Champions Polo in Wellington in April this year. The couple received scathing reviews for their latest TV endeavour Polo, the newest installment of their £80million deal with the streaming service.
Meghan's 2022 cover interview with the magazine sparked backlash with its claims against the royal family. The site - which is part of New York Magazine - famously published a cover interview with the Duchess in August 2022, in which she made controversial comments about the royal family.
