Meghan Markle's TV show failed to break into Netflix's top 1,000 most-watched programmes, the streaming giant's own official viewing figures have revealed. With Love Meghan's second season, which was released last August with heavy promotion, was just 1,217 in the most-watched shows in the last six months of 2025. The eight-part series featured celebrity guests including Chrissy Teigen and Tan France. Meghan shared intimate details of her family life including Archie and Lilibet's favourite foods and colours - as well as how Prince Harry said 'I love you' first on a safari trip to Botswana. But Netflix viewers preferred more than 1,000 other shows more.

Meghan's Netflix 'Holiday Celebration' special, which featured her famous friends and husband visiting a rented house for Christmas food and fun including tips on how to wrap presents, charted slightly better than season two at 1,015. And her flurry of new shows last year did not spark a boom of those consuming the first season of the show, which was at 3,196 in the latest Netflix 'What We Watched' report, released by the streamer yesterday. Netflix's top shows between July and December 2025 were Wednesday, Stranger Things, Untamed and Squid Game, which were streamed between 56million and 123million times in six months.

With Love Meghan's various iterations had between 600,000 and 2.3million views. It came as multiple sources claimed that Meghan's heavily promoted show will not be returning for a third series on Netflix - after the Duchess called it 'a lot of work'. Another source told the Daily Mail that all eyes were on the viewing figures for her Christmas special, as it would also influence how much interest they would have in supporting her As Ever product range at their pop-up and bricks-and-mortar stores. However, Meghan is said to be still hopeful she could make July 4 and Valentine's Day specials of her show.

The Sussexes have a 'first look' deal with Netflix, which gives the streamer the first chance to accept or reject the idea. If the streamer declines, the couple are free to find another potential buyer elsewhere in the media. News that there would be no season three of With Love, Meghan emerged in the US earlier this week. 'It's not returning as a series. There have been conversations about holiday specials, but there's nothing in the works yet,' one insider told Page Six. Her large Instagram following is the likely audience for her lifestyle content and hosting tips. 'People will see similar cooking and crafting on Meghan's socials for the brand, but more bite-sized,' another source said.

The Daily Mail revealed earlier this month that she could release a cookbook. Her Netflix Christmas special also bombed with the critics. It was given multiple zero and one star reviews for its 'numbing content'. The Duchess of Sussex used her Christmas episode of With Love, Meghan to share tips with celebrity friends on how to make crackers, as well as wrapping different types of gifts and decorating a tree. But reviewers in the Daily Mail, Times, Guardian, Telegraph and Independent were left stunned by the 56-minute show - and not in a good way.

Giving 'With Love, Meghan: Holiday Celebration' zero stars out of five, the Daily Mail's reviewer Annabel Fenwick Elliott said: 'It's the syrupy hypocrisy and our hostess's deep lack of self-awareness that continue to make her and this show so unlikeable'. Times columnist Hilary Rose wrote that guests 'queue up to say implausible things, running the gamut from moronic to trite and then emote joy'. In the Telegraph's one-star review from arts and entertainment editor Anita Singh, the episode was labelled 'quite mad and a little bit sad'. On the review-aggregation website Rotten Tomatoes, it received an overall 23 per cent approval rating.
