Netflix Wants Prince Harry and Meghan Markle Documentary To Air With The Crown, Couple Disagree

British royal family news divulges that Netflix would like Harry and Meghan to get on the ball and do some work to earn the millions they were given to produce “uplifting” content. Instead of a win they have failed, with Meghan’s cartoon life bio already cancelled.

They also don’t want to have to compete for eyeballs with Harry’s MIA memoir due this fall. According to sources who spilled to Page Six, the streaming service doesn’t want to be “scooped.”

Royal Family News: Harry’s Bio Is Due This Fall

Harry’s book was to be released this fall but major reservations have been voiced about it coming out on time, if at all. Nonetheless, according to the Daily Mail, “Netflix will be keen to capitalize on the huge buzz that the tell-all tome will likely generate.”

The Sussexes so-called, untitled documentary would ideally air after the fifth series of The Crown which comes this November. This time around the period piece will dish on Harry’s late mother Diana and her separation from her Prince Charles.

Princess Diana will be played by Australian actress Elizabeth Debicki and Dominic West stars as Charles. The drama will be set in the 1990s, but it is not clear if Diana’s tragic car accident death in a 1997 will be shown.

At least there is footage in the can as Netflix film crews shadowed the pair at the Invictus Games in April, hijacking the glory and headlines from the deserving athletes. But, the royal couple were accused of “’cashing in” on the Games by allowing Netflix to film private meetings so the entertainment value is already questionable.
