Meghan Markle’s latest series on Netflix has fallen short of making it to the top 10 list of popular shows on the platform. Despite the success of the first season, the second season of With Love, Meghan failed to attract a significant audience, receiving poor ratings from critics shortly after its release.
Netflix has confirmed that the second season of the show did not perform well in terms of viewership globally, failing to secure a spot in the top 10 rankings in countries like the UK and the USA. The release of eight new episodes on August 26 allowed the show only six days to accumulate viewers before Netflix published its weekly top-viewed list.
The show faced tough competition from other popular programs such as Wednesday’s second season, Untamed, and a documentary on The Biggest Loser, all of which garnered millions of viewers. Notably, With Love, Meghan needed half a million more viewers than its first season to make it to the top 10 list.
In its initial release in March 2025, the show attracted 2.6 million viewers in the first week but saw a decline in viewership leading up to Netflix’s report ranking it at #383 among new releases. The future of the show is now uncertain, with reports suggesting that it may not be renewed for another season due to its underwhelming performance.
Critics have heavily criticized the second season, describing it as “needy” and “narcissistic.” Despite featuring celebrity guests, the show received negative reviews, with publications like The Telegraph and The Guardian giving it low ratings and calling it “boring” and “insufferable.”
The disappointing reception of Meghan’s show has raised concerns about its continuation, with insiders indicating that the network may not pursue another season due to its lackluster performance. Critics have not been kind to the show, pointing out its shortcomings and questioning its appeal to audiences.
