We were ready for double the fun, double the fabulous, and all the royal hijinks, but sadly, Alice in the Palace, the highly anticipated Raven’s Home spin-off starring the one and only Mykal-Michelle Harris, won’t be moving forward at Disney Channel.

The young actress took to Instagram on July 1 to personally break the news and thank fans who’ve been asking about the project. And in true Mykal-Michelle fashion, she did it with grace, gratitude, and nothing but love.

“Everyone has been asking soooo…I want to say thank you so very much to EVERY SINGLE PERSON…who worked on my very own pilot that I not only played the titular character on…but also played opposite myself as another character,” she wrote, referencing her dual roles as Alice and Duchess Clementine. 

“It was for sure a dream come true to make #AliceInThePalace,” she continued. “Ultimately, #disneychannel decided to take the strategy in a different direction that did not include our show. #thatsTheBusiness.”

While fans may be bummed that the spin-off didn’t get picked up, the love and energy poured into the pilot was clearly something special. Raven-Symoné herself directed the pilot and served as executive producer, along with Raven’s Home creators Jed Elinoff and Scott Thomas.

In the show’s original concept, Alice returns to England and meets Duchess Clementine, a young royal who looks exactly like her. What follows is a delightful case of swapped lives with Alice getting a taste of royal glamour and Clementine diving into Alice’s everyday magic. Yes, fans are definitely mourning the missed tiara moments already.

But don’t count Mykal-Michelle out. Her star is still rising. She’s continuing her Disney journey as the voice of Ariel in Disney Junior’s animated series, which just got picked up for a second season.

And that’s not all! Mykal-Michelle will also be starring as Jen in Disney+’s upcoming Oswald The Lucky Rabbit series, a live-action/animated hybrid also featuring Ravi Cabot-Conyers and Ryder Allen. So while Alice in the Palace might be taking its final bow, Mykal-Michelle Harris is just getting started.
