Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are determined to move on from their “disastrous” Spotify deal and their extremely controversial Netflix Harry & Meghan docuseries by embarking on two new projects with Netflix.
We know that Prince Harry, 39, is spending a lot of time focusing on the Invictus Games, and Meghan, 42, is very dedicated to her new lifestyle website American Riviera Orchard; but they seemingly want to take on even more work with the streaming platform, as they have announced not one but two new Netflix projects.

Everything We Know About Prince Harry And Meghan Markle's New Netflix Projects
According to reports, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex's Netflix deal will include two new nonfiction series, both of which are in the "early stages" of production. These will be in addition to their film adaptation of Carley Fortune's novel Meet Me at the Lake, which has some parallels to their own lives.
According to Deadline, Archewell Productions notes that one series is curated and executive produced by Meghan, and will "celebrate the joys of cooking and gardening, entertaining and friendship." Page Six previously reported that her lifestyle brand will focus "on home, garden, food and general lifestyle wares," so it sounds like there is some overlap between the two projects.
The series will reportedly be directed by Michael Steed, and the showrunner is Leah Harison, who was a producer on Selena Gomez's highly-addictive Selena + Chef show.
Prince Harry seems to have more involvement in the second series, as Deadline noted that it will be about professional polo.
Deadline previously wrote: "Shot primarily at the U.S. Open Polo Championship in Wellington, Florida, at The USPA National Polo Center, the series will explore the world of the sport, which is known primarily for its aesthetic and social scene. It will pull the curtain back on the grit and passion of the sport, capturing players and all it takes to compete at the highest level."
