Meghan Markle No Longer Being Considered For Netflix’s ‘The Gentlemen,’ Report Says
Tina Brown said the role was pulled after intense U.K. backlash, ending what would have been Meghan Markle’s first major acting return since 2017.
- On Saturday, royal author Tina Brown reported that the offer for Meghan Markle to appear in Season 3 of Guy Ritchie's drama 'The Gentlemen' has been withdrawn due to casting backlash.
- Deadline reported Friday that Markle was in 'early talks' for the crime drama, but Brown noted the backlash in the UK was 'so intense, it became untenable to go forward.'
- Sources told British entertainment writer Rob Shuter that the couple's 'marriage is in serious trouble' and moving to the United Kingdom is a last attempt to save it.
- If the role is withdrawn, Tom Sykes reported that Prince Harry and their children, Archie and Lilibet, will likely move to the U.K. while Meghan will 'come and go' depending on work.
- Observers remain skeptical, as Ritchie's series has not yet aired its second season and Sykes noted the 'level of general hostility' toward Meghan is 'off the charts' in the U.K.
