Keeping up with the Sussexes: Harry and Meghan ‘filming fly-on-the-wall Netflix series’

THE Duke and Duchess of Sussex have invited Netflix cameras into their Californian home for a fly-on-the wall documentary series, it has been claimed.

The couple have reportedly given permission for the streaming giant to make an “at home with the Duke and

Duchess-style” series and have been filmed behind the scenes for several months.

A Hollywood insider told New York website Page Six: “I think it’s fair to say that Netflix is getting its pound of flesh.”

The Sussexes signed a multi-million dollar contract with Netflix in 2020, just months after leaving the UK, but have yet to produce any content. The only project in the pipeline that has so far been announced is the Duke’s behindthe-scenes documentary about the Invictus Games called Heart of Invictus.

A crew has been following the Sussexes for months, and were seen filming their visit to New York last September, and their vehicle was spotted in Windsor

in April, when the couple visited the Queen ahead of her 96th birthday.

In November, the Duke and Duchess returned to New York with a crew in tow to mark US Veterans Day, with cameras bundled out of their hotel under coats in an apparent attempt at secrecy.

Revelations about the latest project will likely prompt more sighs at Buckingham Palace, which has become accustomed to dealing with the stream of allegations and accusations proffered by the Sussexes in various interviews since they left the royal fold.

The Royal family is already braced for yet further recriminations when the Duke’s memoir is published towards the end of the year. Netflix is said to want to release the docu-series in the autumn to coincide with the book release, but the Sussexes reportedly want to hold it until next year.

A spokesman for the Sussexes declined to comment on the latest claim, although one source noted that the couple had “several projects in various stages of development at Netflix”.
