Six months after Meghan Markle and Prince Harry officially departed from the Royal Family, the pair have signed a multi-year deal with Netflix.

Since leaving the Buckingham Palace and settling in California, Meghan has managed to return to her acting roots by landing a voice-over role in Disney’s Elephant, while Harry appeared in documentary, Rising Phoenix. But alongside all their charity work, the couple have also now decided to launch their own production company, which has landed in the hands of Netflix.

While Meghan has said she doesn’t plan on acting on-screen again, the pair’s production company aims to produce documentaries, docu-series, feature films, scripted shows and children’s programs for Netflix, according to the NY Times. 

“Our focus will be on creating content that informs but also gives hope,” the couple said in a statement. “As new parents, making inspirational family programming is also important to us.”

Despite Meghan Markle and Prince Harry having zero production experience, Deadline reports that the mega deal could be worth up to $150 million as the couple also met with Disney, Apple and NCBUniversal over the rights.

So naturally racist pissbabies are absolutely furious over the news that Meghan Markle has found success after “dismantling” the Royal Family. Even though conservatives demanded that their taxes shouldn’t pay a cent towards Meghan and Harry’s new lifestyle, they’ve now managed to find issue with the pair having financial independence from the Royal family.

Namely, die-hard monarchy fans are threatening to boycott Netflix as they’re upset that the deal goes against what the couple stepped away from the Royal Family for in the first place: More privacy.

Clearly not the brightest bulbs in the box, these conservative sooks fail to understand that privacy and owning a production company have absolutely nothing to do with each other.

When Meghan and Harry sued paparazzi for taking allegedly taking pictures of their son by flying drones over their home, that was an invasion of privacy. When the pair took action against British tabloids for publishing hand-written letters Meghan had written to her estranged father, that was an invasion of privacy.

But Meghan Markle and Prince Harry deciding to create a business where they can create content that they would like to see is not a privacy issue – especially when the pair plan to produce the shows, not star in them.

In reality, the issue here isn’t the Netflix deal. The issue is that racist British pissbabies are upset because they expected and hoped that Meghan and Harry would struggle after leaving the Royal Family — and they didn’t.

In fact, they’re thriving. And we love to see it.
