Meghan Markle has decided to call time on her Netflix show after a two-season run, according to multiple reports.
Page Six reported the Duchess of Sussex, 44, found her show With Love, Meghan to be “a lot of work” and wanted to redirect her energy into her lifestyle brand, AsEver.
“It’s not returning as a series,” one source told the outlet.
“There have been conversations about holiday specials, but there’s nothing in the works yet.”
Other sources said Markle would continue to produce similar lifestyle-based content for As Ever, including cooking and crafting, but more “bite-sized”.
With Love, Meghan debuted on Netflix in March last year and ran for two eight-episode seasons.
Markle described the concept for the show as “reimagining the genre of lifestyle programming, blending practical how-tos and candid conversation with friends, new and old”.
The show, shot in a rented house in Montecito, California, featured a slew of special guests including The Office actress Mindy Kaling, TV personality Chrissy Teigan, and US celebrity chef Tom Colicchio.
An early episode received mass ridicule online after Markle was seen repackaging store-bought snacks, such as nuts and berries, into her own labelled bags for a kitchen segment.
“I’m so glad Meghan Markle has a new show on Netflix where I can watch her take pretzels out of a labelled bag and put them into a new bag … then label it," one X (formerly Twitter) user wrote.
“This is the IDIOT who thought she could modernise the monarchy. The jokes write themselves,” said another.
The Suits actor was also mocked online after correcting Mindy Kaling after the comedian called her Meghan Markle.
“It’s so funny, too, that you keep saying Meghan Markle. You know I’m Sussex now,” she said.

Markle opened up about her love story with Prince Harry in an early episode of season two, which premiered last August.
She told viewers it was the Prince, who she calls “H”, who first admitted he was in love during the couple’s courting stage.
Critics derided the show, saying it was boring and one calling it “ultimately uncompelling”.
Netflix subscribers did not take to it either, with the first season failing to crack Netflix’s Top 10 list.
Page Six did report that a special Christmas episode titled Holiday Celebration did crack the Global Top 10 list, although the official ratings won’t be confirmed until next month.
“2026 is looking like another big year for her. There will be more wine and definitely more homeware too, but she will ease off selling her biscuit and crepe kits,” their source said.
