Harry and Meghan to stop making royal-bashing Netflix shows and tell-all books after huge backlash

WHINGEING Harry and Meghan are to stop ­making royal-bashing, fly-on-the-wall Netflix shows.

To huge relief, they are also binning any more moaning memoirs — 1,240 days after their January 2020 Megxit.

Instead the self-pitying Sussexes will only feature behind the Netflix cameras.

The drastic decision to stop their TV and book sniping will spare the Royal Family from further pain.

The couple have lashed out at King Charles, Camilla, William and Kate since quitting The Firm and moving to California.

But, 41 months on, their spectacular change of direction should end any more hurtful attacks and details about the lead up to Megxit.

Sources say it is because they have run out of material — to the relief of audiences around the world fed up of their whining

One insider told The Sun: “That period of their life is over — as there is nothing left to say.”

The couple’s brutal attack on the royals in their March 2021 interview with pal Oprah Winfrey was ­followed by badly-received Netflix series Harry & Meghan.

It also led to them being pilloried on cartoon satire South Park.

Harry gained more enemies with his hard-hitting memoir Spare, published in January.

More recently, the couple have come under fire for claims about a “near catastrophic” car chase with paparazzi in New York — later downplayed by witnesses and police.

Meghan, 41, has recently signed with Hollywood talent agency WME to explore a new career path.

It is likely the vastly-experienced firm advised her not to share every moment of her and Harry’s lives with TV audiences.

A source told us last year how the Netflix and memoir period was their “era of visibility” and that they hoped 2023 would be their “year of reconciliation” with the Royal Family.

They have never publicly attacked the Queen for that reason.

There are also claims the couple are heading in divergent paths, with Harry focusing on the Invictus Games in Germany in four months.

Meghan has been regularly seen out in LA without her husband, according to society journalist ­Petronella Wyatt.

She said: “Friends of mine who live near them are always bumping into Meghan at parties these days. She tends to leave Harry at home.”

Hollywood broadcaster Tim Dillon claimed: “All they want to do is hang out with celebrities.

“I was at a party the other night talking to somebody about these people and it’s just constant with them.

“She (Meghan) was texting the person I was with there. The point is they just won’t stop these two.

“They’re like low-grade reality stars trying to attach to anything.

“I’m literally at the party and they are showing me texts of this woman begging people to like ‘hang out’, she is trying to get places.

“It’s sad. A lot of it isn’t working, and they are rolling their eyes at me, LOL, and we are having a good laugh about this.

“I respect the hustle I get what they are trying to do,

“A lot of people at this party were like we text her back, she’s a duchess, but we’ve had enough.”

Harry is said to be returning to Britain next week to give evidence against Mirror Group Newspapers.
