A few days back, it was reported that Netflix has decided to postpone the docuseries featuring Prince Harry and Meghan Markle due to the increased backlash for season five of The Crown. However, the streaming platform is all set for a royal double-whammy this year. They are eager to unveil the controversial show earlier next month. 

The release of the docuseries in December will be a big blow for the royal family as they are already concerned by Harry’s memoir. Prince Harry’s infamous memoir Spare is set to hit the stores on January 10, 2023. It can drop a lot of truth bombs regarding King Charles III and Queen Consort Camilla. However, are Prince Harry and Meghan Markle not happy with the release date of the docuseries?

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle hope to deal with the memoir first

It is revealed that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle do not want the docuseries to release before Christmas. They are hoping for it to hit the screens after the memoir so that they have enough time to do damage control. The docuseries is likely to throw a lot of shady remarks over King, Queen Consort, Prince William, and Kate Middleton. It was majorly filmed before the death of Queen Elizabeth II and was thus not directly questioning the monarch.

However, with Charles as the new monarch, the dynamics of the royal family have gone for a toss. The Sussexes are now concerned about the content of the show and Prince Harry’s team is “frantically asking Netflix to postpone the production“. An inside source revealed as quoted by The Sun, “Harry simply does not want it coming out before Christmas.”

Though the Duke and Duchess are quite persistent about not releasing the docuseries any time soon, things are unlikely to go their way. Meanwhile, they are also at the odds with the streamer due to the edition rights. After Queen’s death, the royal prince and the former American actress wanted to make some changes to the show. 

They wanted to tone down the statements written for the monarch. However, Netflix has denied the re-filming and the show will go ahead without any interruption from the Sussex royals.
