Netflix Approached Prince Harry To Do This Princess Diana Documentary, What We Know

Prince Harry is reportedly in talks with Netflix on the topic of making a documentary that honors his mother, the late Princess, in time for the 30th anniversary of her death.

Of course this move is sure to get some eyeballs rolling, and not without any cause. In recent times, fans have called out Prince Harry for exploiting his mother’s image for sympathy and monetary gains.

Should I add comparing his wife to his mother Princess Diana? I know, eyeball wagging stuff.

Prince Harry Is “Uniquely Placed” To Tell His Mother’s Story, Source Says

Prince Harry may have admitted that his memory of Princess Diana is fuzzy and that he needed outside sources to learn more about her as he got older, but that didn’t stop Netflix from proclaiming him the perfect person to tell her story. They probably wouldn’t be able to get William – the close confidante – to tell the story.

So, as part of the multi-million dollar deal Netflix signed with the Sussexes a few years ago, they’ve invited Harry to narrate Princess Diana’s story.

“The idea is that it would be a solo project for Harry, who would be a co-executive producer as well as hosting and narrating the series,” the Los Angeles source said.

The production executive added: “It’s felt that this is something he would handle with passion and sensitivity, offering fresh insights into not only her life, but also her lasting legacy.”

According to the source, the idea is to have it out in time for the 30th anniversary of Princess Diana’s death – if you recall, she died in a tragic car accident in France in 1997. At the time, William was 15 and Harry was 12.

“Nothing has been agreed yet but this is being talked about in an extremely positive way,” the source said, adding, “Harry might even see it as a stepping stone to building bridges with William and the rest of his family.”

Even though it’s been speculated and rumored for a long time that Netflix has no interest in renewing their contract with the couple once it expires this year, it’s said that Netflix is looking to enter a commercial contract with Prince Harry and Meghan Markle.

Nothing’s been confirmed yet, but the streaming giant has been heavily involved in promoting Meghan Markle’s lifestyle brand, As Ever.
