Things don’t seem to be looking up for Meghan Markle, as the grapevines are heavy with speculations of another loss. Over a month after she and her husband, Prince Harry, made the industry’s losers list, the Duchess faces a new trial. Hollywood insiders claim her relationship with the talent agency WME is over, thanks to her unbearable attitude.
Although the claim is yet to be confirmed, it hasn’t stopped the entertainment scene from buzzing with the speculation. An industry insider alleged WME dropped Meghan because she was “too demanding” and “difficult to work with.” Other sources noted the former actress has not had any meetings with the agency’s renowned powerbroker, Ari Emanuel, since last January.
The reason for the agency’s allegedly strained relationship with Meghan reportedly began after her January 2024 outburst. The incident occurred right after the holidays, with the Duchess making various demands. Her list included a meeting “and expected decks and plans.” However, it is unclear if this was for herself or the Archewell Foundation she runs with her husband.
Meghan’s allegedly demanding stance led to a dispute, with the insider noting, “Ari was done with her.” Another source confirmed the incident; however, Page Six shared that WME insists it has a working relationship with Meghan. Other informants echoed similar sentiments, stating the agency had ongoing projects with the Duchess, but one Hollywood source added:
“I don’t know what those projects are, but WME is definitely not working on Meghan’s personal business.”
Fans Celebrate the Alleged End of Meghan Markle’s Relationship With WME
Although the verdict on Meghan’s relationship with WME remains unclear, the possibility of a terminated contract pleased fans. These critics celebrated the news on X, with many noting it was about time the agency kicked Meghan out. “Great to see the entitled elite getting a dose of reality. Meghan Markle thinking she’s above everyone else is just typical Hollywood nonsense,” someone penned.
Another echoed similar sentiments, noting the alleged termination wasn’t surprising given Meghan’s failed projects. A third agreed, writing, “Markle in 2025 is flopping so bad, and I am here for it.” The criticism continued, with someone applauding WME for realizing the Duchess does not have “an iota of talent or charisma.” Others added that they were saving their celebrations until the agency’s official statement, while some mocked Meghan and Harry.
As stated, Meghan’s speculated exit from WME comes over a month after she made The Hollywood Reporter’s “Biggest Losers” list. We covered the drama, sharing royal expert Kinsey Schofield’s take on the Sussexes making the list. He believed the news would be a difficult pill for the couple to swallow, given their desire to be elites.
In his words, “The Hollywood Reporter is basically the bible in this city. This has got to hurt Harry and Meghan personally, and it’s got to have William Morris Endeavor (WME), her current talent agency, scrambling to figure out their next steps.” THR cited multiple reasons for naming Harry and Meghan Hollywood losers, including failed TV projects like Netflix’s Polo.
Could WME be reconsidering its ties to Meghan Markle, as sources claim?
