Netflix has reportedly approached Prince Harry and Meghan Markle with a proposal for a new documentary to commemorate the 30th anniversary of Princess Diana’s passing in 2027. The proposed series would delve into the life and tragic death of Princess Diana, with Prince Harry taking on roles as co-executive producer, host, and narrator. This endeavor could potentially lead to a lucrative deal worth millions.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex previously collaborated with Netflix on the documentary “Harry & Meghan,” where they shared insights into their personal lives and challenges. Their initial five-year, $100 million agreement with Netflix, signed in 2020, is set to conclude this year. While no official confirmation has been made regarding the new documentary, responses have been positive. A source mentioned that Prince Harry’s unique perspective on his mother could provide an intimate portrayal, stating, “He is uniquely placed, not only to talk about the woman he knew as his mother, but also to examine her role as an enduring social and cultural icon still beloved by so many.”
However, recent reports indicate that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have denied these claims. A source close to the couple stated that the rumors about the new documentary are “not true.” This clarification comes amid various speculations and discussions in the media.
In the meantime, Meghan’s recent Netflix cooking show, “With Love, Meghan,” has garnered mixed reviews. The eight-part series, which showcases her cooking, gardening, and hosting tips, made it to Netflix’s Top 10 list, ranking sixth in both the US and UK. Despite its popularity, the show faced criticism for its content and presentation.
Maintaining a strong relationship with Netflix remains crucial for the Sussexes. Royal commentator Richard Fitzwilliams noted, “I think they will get something from Netflix in the future… that does imply that something is going to continue with Netflix.” As discussions continue, the possibility of new collaborations between the Duke and Duchess of Sussex and Netflix remains open.
