Meghan Markle teases new Netflix show in trailer
Meghan Markle has revealed her Netflix series has been postponed at the last minute as she navigates a heartbreaking tragedy.
The streaming platform announced that With Love, Meghan, which has been produced by the Duchess of Sussex, will be delayed due to the devastation caused by the Los Angeles wildfires.
Many have supported Meghan's decision after she explained in a statement that she will be focusing on "the needs of those impacted by the wildfires in my home state of California".
However, some critics have hit back questioning her motives for the delay, saying the show must go on. But one insider has revealed that Meghan did not have to think twice about pushing back the series from screens for a few weeks - explaining "we're dealth with a catastrophe".
Meghan Markle's Netflix show premiere has been postponedThey told People magazine: "Delaying the release of With Love, Meghan was likely an easy decision for her. I don't think she could imagine putting out a show centered on joy and hosting when so many people in her home state no longer have homes to host people in.
"I think it's sad that critics are saying she's only doing this to avoid the fires overshadowing her show. We're all human, and we're dealing with a catastrophe."
It comes as one PR expert told the Mirror that Meghan would have had no choice but to delay the project if she wanted to avoid being branded "tone deaf". PR and personal branding expert Mayah Riaz explained: "Given the severity of the wildfires, which have resulted in loss of life and property, proceeding with the show's original release date could have been perceived as insensitive.

"In terms of choice, while Meghan could have proceeded with the original release, doing so might have attracted criticism for being tone-deaf to the ongoing crisis. Delaying the show allows her to avoid potential backlash and demonstrates respect for the affected communities. With regards to potential risks associated with postponing the show, it's important to consider the context. The delay is relatively short, moving the premiere from January 15 to March 4."
The delay of the series comes as both Meghan and Prince Harry hugged residents and spoke to emergency crews at a meal distribution site for people affected by the fires on Friday. Harry and Meghan live in Montecito, near Santa Barbara, 90 miles from Los Angeles.
It is believed the couple have donated clothing, children’s items and other essential supplies for people affected by the fires. They also invited friends and loved ones who had been forced to evacuate into their home, it is understood. In a statement on their website last week, they said: "In the last few days, wildfires in southern California have raged through neighbourhoods and devastated families, homes, schools, medical care centres, and so much more – affecting tens of thousands from all walks of life."
They added: "If a friend, loved one, or pet has to evacuate, and you are able to offer them a safe haven in your home, please do. Be sure to check in with any disabled or elderly neighbours to see if they need help evacuating. Some families and people have been left with nothing. Please consider donating clothing, children’s toys and other essentials. The American Red Cross is on the ground helping those in need."
