Prince Harry may be looking to “turn his back” on Meghan Markle’s star-studded Hollywood lifestyle, according to a report.
The Duke of Sussex has made his quest for privacy known ever since he and Markle officially stepped away from royal life in 2020.
And according to the Daily Mail, the exiled royal may now be looking to resume a subdued role following the axing of his wife’s Spotify podcast, “Archetypes.”
“The big question is how long before Harry turns his back on the showbusiness life, for which he is obviously ill-suited and seems entirely uncomfortable with?” Alison Boshoff wrote for the outlet.
“In truth, Harry never really wanted to be a podcaster or a TV executive. He didn’t want to be the pepper to Meghan’s salt.”
The Duchess of Sussex’s $20 million deal with the streaming platform was nixed last month, with a joint statement from both parties being released to confirm the news.
The statement said they were all “proud of the series we made together.”
There were just 12 episodes of “Archetypes,” which featured guests like Serena Williams, Mariah Carey, Mindy Kaling and Paris Hilton.
The move has since forced Netflix to speak out on its partnership with the Sussexes, saying the streamer has no plans to put an end to its working relationship with the couple.
A spokesperson for Netflix said Tuesday that Archewell Productions is working on several projects with them.
“We value our partnership with Archewell Productions,” the rep said. “‘Harry & Meghan’ was Netflix’s biggest documentary debut ever, and we’ll continue to work together on a number of projects, including the upcoming documentary series ‘Heart of Invictus.’”
Harry and Markle signed an estimated $100 million contract with Netflix in 2021.
And while Markle, 41, is said to already be plotting her next move, it is thought that Harry, 38, is taking a step away from the limelight.
Markle has been “immersed” in meetings since she signed with WME CEO Ari Emanuel and his team in April, according to Variety.
It’s recently been reported that she might be in the process of penning a deal with Dior in a bid from her talent agency, William Morris Endeavor, to “re-invent” the duchess.
The Post has reached out to reps for the Sussexes for comment.
