Read MoreAmong the many facts Meghan Markle revealed in a recent interview with Variety magazine, one stood out. [Page Six reports that Netflix stated that "there has never been a confirmed documentary about the Duke and Duchess of Sussex," and not only did Meghan acknowledge the documentary's existence, but she also implied that the documentary's director, Liz Garbus, had taken a different approach
"I'm not sure I'd have been able to do it if I had.
"It's nice to have our story told by a seasoned director whom we've admired for so long," she said. But that's not why we are telling this story. We are entrusting our story to someone else, and that means through their lens."
This is a documentary that was originally reported to be scheduled by December, but has reportedly been heavily edited and revised since the Queen's death in September, with reports circulating that it may be delayed to 2023 or may not happen at all This is a call to arms to the controversy that may swirl around the However, interviews with Princess Meghan make it appear as if the documentary is underway. As reported by Page Six, there appear to be enough parts of the documentary that contradict what Harry has said in his memoir, which is said to be due by the end of the year. These inconsistencies confused Netflix executives and the documentary's creators, "There were a lot of inconsistencies with what Harry wrote in the show, and that was a problem," a senior Netflix source told Page Six.
"And Harry and Meghan pretty much demanded [the filmmakers] to withdraw the content they themselves had provided for their project."
The outlet reports that "the Sussexes are believed to have spoken on camera about the royal family, including Prince William and Kate Middleton and Prince Charles and Queen Camilla, and reportedly wanted parts of it edited out."
The documentary's release date was originally slated for December, about a month after the controversial fifth season of "The Crown" was released on November 9. The show's release date remains ambiguous. A source told Deadline, "They were so rattled by Netflix that they decided to blink first and postpone the documentary."
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex signed a multi-year, multi-million dollar deal with the streaming giant in 2020. Nothing has been announced from the partnership so far, but another documentary about Harry's Invictus Games, Heart of Invictus, is in the works. A project supported by Princess Meghan, an animated children's series called Pearl, was cancelled last year.
