Meghan Markle was savaged by fans over the latest claims that she’s in discussions over a potential role in a Netflix TV series. The Duchess of Sussex has reportedly been in talks to return to acting, which would coincide with her relocation back to the UK, six years after leaving the country and moving to the US.

A number of people criticised the duchess online and said the whole thing was a “PR stunt” to get publicity.
One user said on X: “Hollywood Reporter is also reporting that Meghan’s been dropped from consideration for ‘THE GENTLEMEN’, citing Tina Brown. As a reminder, neither Meghan nor Netflix denied that her casting was a possibility, meaning that both could have been using the news for a publicity stunt.
“But I find the idea rather hilarious that Netflix may have used the news to boost the profile of ‘THE GENTLEMEN’ before its September 3rd premiere, at the expense of Meghan.

Another user opined: “The whole thing is a joke. Meghan never said she was going to act in the UK. That’s crazy.”
A third one added: “This whole episode brought that series to the public attention.”
A fourth user commented: “I suggested it was a PR stunt when I first heard about it. No one in their right mind would hire Meg, as she just devalues all she touches. She is a laughing stock.”
Lastly, another user said: “Meghan is not strategic. She needs that narcissistic fuel in that moment. She enjoyed the speculation about it and never thought thru that she would get backlash and look dumb.”
