Meghan Markle and Prince Harry are coming to a TV near you.
Netflix on Friday confirmed to Fox News Digital that Archewell Productions is working with the streaming service to produce two non-fiction shows as part of their multiyear overall deal.
The first series, which was curated by Markle, focuses on cooking, gardening, entertaining and the joy of friendship. Markle is an executive producer on the series.
The second series was primarily filmed at the U.S. Open Polo Championship in Wellington, Florida, and highlights one of Prince Harry’s favorite pastimes. Both the Duke and Duchess of Sussex are executive producers of the effort.

“Known primarily for its aesthetic and social scene, the series will pull the curtain back on the grit and passion of the sport, capturing players and all it takes to compete at the highest level,” Netflix shared in a press release to Fox News Digital of the second series, noting that it will give “viewers unprecedented access to the world of professional polo.”
Both shows are in the early stage of production. Titles and release dates are expected in the coming months.
Archewell did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital’s request for comment.

The couple’s multiyear deal with Netflix came to fruition after they stepped away from their royal duties and moved to California in 2020. They first released their bombshell docuseries, “Harry & Meghan,” in 2022, and followed that with the “Heart of Invictus” docuseries in 2023.
In February, Netflix’s Chief Content Officer Bela Bajaria said at the Next on Netflix event that the duo have several projects in the works with the streaming service.
“They have a couple of unscripted things they’re working on with Brandon [Reigg, Vice President, Nonfiction Series and Comedy Specials at Netflix],” Bajaria said at the event, per Hello! magazine. “And they actually have like a bunch of development. They have a movie in development, a [scripted] series that they’re working on. So all very early development, with a movie, a TV show and a couple of unscripted shows. But yeah, the movie’s great.”
