Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s Netflix Docuseries
Back in 2020, the Duke and the Duchess of Sussex signed a multi-year deal with Netflix. And after Netflix’s The Crown, new content related to the royal family is coming up on the platform. This time it is a docuseries on Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s first year of marriage up to the birth of their first child Archie. The docuseries is directed by Oscar-nominated director Liz Garbus and it will feature mostly the homelife of the couple.
In an interview with Variety, Markle shared that the director was free to show their story in her way. Markle admitted being a fan of Garbus’ work and therefore trusted her with their series. Markle said,
“But that’s not why we’re telling it. We’re trusting our story to someone else, and that means it will go through their lens.”
In a different interview with The Cut, Markle shared that she had very little idea as to what content was going to be included in the series. When asked if her love story with Prince Harry would also be covered, the mother of Archie and Lilibet responded,
“What’s so funny is I’m not trying to be cagey,” she said at the time. “I don’t read any press. So I don’t know what’s confirmed. I will tell you Liz Garbus is incredible.”
As for now, the release date has not been confirmed. But the series is set to be released on Netflix by the end of the year.
Royal Commentator criticizes upcoming Meghan Markle and Prince Harry Docuseries
Following the reports of the upcoming release of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle docuseries royal commentator Kinsey Schofield criticized the series comparing it with The Crown. In a UK Express interview, Schofield claimed that Meghan Markle and Prince Harry were indebted to Netflix.
Compared with The Crown where Princess Diana’s death was considered vulgar, Schofield said that the docuseries would also bring in some issues in the same way. But according to her, The duke and the duchess of Sussex had already cashed in a huge amount from Netflix. She went on to say that the couple had “sold their souls to Netflix”.
Further on Schofield suggested that Netflix would always choose The Crown Series over the docuseries. And therefore Markle and Prince Harry would be still not on par with the late Princess Diana’s series.
