After being deeply affected by the death of his grandmother, Queen Elizabeth II, Prince Harry is reportedly eager to make sure that his next Netflix series is edited to represent those emotions. Since Meghan Markle's remarks against the Windsors in an interview with Oprah Winfrey, Harry and his wife haven't had the finest relationship with the Royal Family.In order to capitalize on the Duke's planned biography, which is scheduled to be released at the end of 2022, it is claimed that the streaming service is reportedly hoping to time the documentary's release with that of the series in November. Fans and experts had already predicted that the program may portray the royal institution in a more negative light. But what could be the real reason why the couple wants to edit their Netflix show?
Why Do Prince Harry And Meghan Markle Want To Edit Their Netflix Show?
Prior to the Queen’s death, the royal couple had plenty of projects at near completion, Meghan Markle’s podcast on Spotify, Archetypes, Harry’s tell-all memoir, and the filming for their docuseries with Netflix, which was well underway. However, it appears that the Netflix show might be “shelved indefinitely.”
According to Page Six, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are "panicked" and trying to "tone down" their upcoming Netflix show, but they are receiving the cold shoulder from the streaming giant's executives, who think big adjustments may lead to the production being canceled altogether.
Citing the source, the couple is “having second thoughts on their own story” but they are at differences with Netflix and even their own production crew as they backtrack on what they intend to reveal to the public in their upcoming docuseries.
The pair purportedly wants to remove parts of the documentary, which they have been recording for more than a year, but Netflix executives are allegedly supporting the filmmakers who want to keep the content.
Another source of the publication also noted, “Harry and Meghan panicked about trying to tone down even the most basic language. But it’s their story, from their own mouths.”
Previous reports revealed that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex wanted to edit the docuseries in the wake of the Queen’s death, as it is believed to contain a number of bombshells about Prince William, Kate Middleton, King Charles III, and Queen Consort Camilla.
The couple reportedly started rethinking the show, which is produced by their own company, Archewell. The Netflix source divulged, “They’ve made significant requests to walk back content they themselves have provided – to the extent that some Netflix staff believe, if granted, it will effectively shelve the project indefinitely. Netflix is standing by the filmmakers.”
While Prince Harry and Meghan Markle – who has landed a deal that is said to be worth a whopping $100 million — want the Netflix show to launch next year, the streaming platform has long desired to release it immediately following the fifth season of The Crown.
Are Prince Harry And Meghan Markle Trying To Win Royal Trust?
People questioned if Prince Harry and Meghan Markle would appear in public with them because the Duke and Duchess of Sussex were not on the greatest of terms with the other members of the Royal Family at the time of Queen Elizabeth II's passing.
While Harry didn’t get to see his beloved grandmother during Her Majesty’s final moments, he and his wife participated in the funeral ceremonies.
With the couple wanting some changes in their Netflix show, rumor has it that Harry and Meghan are plotting a year-long reconciliation with their estranged royal family.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex had wanted to make amends with Queen Elizabeth during the course of the following year, but the Queen's passing prevented them from doing so.
The two will also be the subject of a Netflix documentary that will either make or kill their TV careers. Aside from the edits of the docuseries, it is also reported that Prince Harry had pleaded with his publisher to do some last-minute edits on a series of bombshell claims about the royal family in the upcoming memoir.
Now, it would depend on what transpires in the upcoming months, particularly as the Royal family readies itself for the publication of Harry's tell-all book and the release of their Netflix show.
