Harry and Meghan Markle, the film: first photos and harsh criticism of Fuga da Palazzo on social networks
The economic question is at the center of the controversy between Harry and the Royal Family in recent times. Inexplicable tensions were it not that the Prince and Meghan Markle are on the verge of a financial crisis. Indeed, experts raise doubts on the duration of the millionaire contract that the Sussexes have entered into with Netflix.
As known, Harry had accused his father Carlo of leaving him without a salary after the Megxit. But a Clarece House spokesperson showed, documents in hand, that the Prince of Wales paid a large sum to his son and Meghan until summer 2020. The Sussexes then ran for cover, explaining that “The Duke of Sussex’s comments they refer to the first quarter of fiscal 2020 which begins in April and on the same date the Sandringham agreement commenced and this is in line with Clarence House’s accounts ”.
This is the background. Now, according to the Express, financial experts raise the issue of the continuity of the contract that the Sussexes have signed with Netflix for 100 million dollars. In practice, it is doubtful whether this is a permanent agreement, or rather that it can become the permanent income of Harry and Meghan.
The contract allowed the couple to pay the hefty costs for their safety and to reimburse the £ 2.4 million they owed UK taxpayers for the 2019 refurbishment of Frogmore Cottage. Public relations expert Mark Borkowski said: “It’s a fantastic deal for Netflix and a phenomenal deal for the former royal couple.” So, all happy and satisfied, but it seems that the clouds are on the horizon.
How long does the millionaire deal remain in effect? Could Meghan and Harry lose their main source of income soon? Not only did Borkowski stress how difficult it is to produce content. Lady Markle knows something about it, her children’s book has not been a great success and once the Court background is exhausted, what will the Sussexes have to tell?
In reality, as experts analyze, the Sussexes have signed an agreement to make an indefinite number of productions. Currently they have only presented one program, Heart of Invictus, the proceeds of which will be donated entirely to the Invictus Games Foundation. Since the couple just announced that will take a break until November to spend time with daughter Lilibet Diana, it is unlikely that they will prepare to make other productions soon.
Royal biographer Penny Junor then expressed her doubts about the deal with Netflix: “I find it difficult see how this can be a permanent income stream for Harry and Meghan ”.
