Meghan Markle is facing a fresh wave of criticism after she and Netflix announced on Friday that their partnership on her lifestyle brand As Ever was ending, with some social media users reacting harshly to the Duchess of Sussex's statement about the split.
The separation was presented by both sides as a planned next step rather than a dramatic rupture. Netflix said Meghan's interest in 'elevating everyday moments in beautiful yet simple ways' had helped shape As Ever and added that she would now continue building the brand independently, while a spokesperson for Meghan said the company had seen 'meaningful and rapid growth' and was 'ready to stand on its own.'
