With Love, Meghan is nowhere to be seen on Netflix’s top ten chart.
The second season of the cooking show from Meghan Markle failed to crack the streamer’s weekly ratings after its launch on August 26.
It comes after the first season squeaked into the top ten with 2.6M views in its first week, placing it at number ten, in March.
The first season also failed to have any long tail appeal; in Netflix’s semi-annual data dump – the What We Watched report, showed that between January and June 2025, With Love, Meghan ranked #383 with 5.3M views, low for a Netflix original with four seasons of Markle’s USA Network scripted series Suits ranking higher than it, despite having been off the air for six years.
The second season also failed to make the Luminate’s Top 50 Streaming Charts for the period between August 22 and 28, which covers U.S. viewing, meaning that fewer than 1.11M people watched the show in its first two days on the streamer.
The ratings will be a disappointment for Netflix, which had hoped its overall deal with the former royal duo, signed in September 2020, would have produced more successful output than it has.
That deal, which has since been downgraded to a first-look arrangement, started off well with their Harry & Meghan documentary becoming Netflix’s biggest doc debut ever in December 2022.
Since then, documentary series Live to Lead, Heart of Invictus and Prince Harry’s Polo series all failed to hit the top ten.
With Love, Meghan was produced by the duo’s Archewell Productions as well as Sony’s IPC, which won the rights in a bake-off with a two-season order handed out from the start.
The second season featured the likes of chefs David Chang, Christina Tosi, Samin Nosrat and José Andrés as well as Chrissy Teigen, Queer Eye star Tan France, podcaster Jay Shetty and cookbook author Radhi Devlukia.
The show will, however, return for a Christmas special with With Love, Meghan: Holiday Celebration launching in December.
Over the weekend, Markle teased some behind the scenes photos of production, including pictures of her children on set, and a musical playlist.
