Harry and Meghan's Netflix show 'Polo' received negative reviews and speculation surrounds the future of their TV aspirations. The Duchess's reported absence from Oprah Winfrey's party and alleged distancing from A-listers fuels doubts about their career trajectory.
Netflix show Bethenny Frankel gave her NJ drones theory, claiming an apparent connection to the 'Pentagon'. On Tuesday, it was reported that the Duchess of Sussex’s cooking show may never come to fruition, while others claimed it could happen. The source told the outlet it would be “make or break” for Markle and Harry , who have ambitions of building a TV empire. However, following “ Polo ,” the insider revealed: “There won’t be another deal. There may be one offs but that’s it.
” After Markle was reportedly absent from the surprise 70th birthday party that Oprah Winfrey threw for their mutual friend Gayle King over the weekend, the source alleged that her absence was on purpose. “A-listers are now actively keeping away from them and events they are apparently going to attend,” the source continued. “One told me ‘it’s not a good look to be around them.'” The Duke of Sussex and Markle served as executive producers on the series, with Harry having a special connection to the game since he’s been playing since he was a child. “Polo” was hit with an average of two out of five stars across the board from multiple outlets, who labeled it “‘Polo’ is a mostly boring look at a sport that very few people outside of elite circles have any particular interest in,” one review read. “The first episode was tough to connect with, because it presents a world that not only isn’t very relatable to most people, but is boring to boot,” critic Joel Keller noted. The review did, however, note that the series is a good watch for those wanting to familiarize themselves with the sport. Harry is only seen a couple of times in the series, including a brief appearance in the opening credits and then again during the fourth episode — also gave “Polo” two stars, calling the pastime was “the stupidest, most obnoxious sport known to humanity” and a “playground of the rich.” “‘Polo’ looks destined to fall through the submenus into obscurity at the speed of light. And rightly so,” critic Stuart Heritage wrote.
