The unabridged Harry & Meg

- Lee Brown

Previously unseen sections of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s interview with Oprah Winfrey might soon be aired in the UK, according to a report.

Winfrey revealed that her interview was initially 3 hours and 20 minutes, trimmed down to 85 minutes when it was finally aired around the world.

While a few extra clips were revealed on “CBS This Morning,” at least 90 minutes of the interview have been neither seen nor heard — alarming royal aides, according to The Sunday People.

Now ITV — the company that reportedly paid almost $1.4 million to air the interview in the UK — is keen on broadcasti­ng the rest of it, after more than 12 million Britons watched the initial TV special, sources told the UK paper.

“There is a lot of interest in showing the interview in full,” an industry source told the paper. “The original program was the biggest show of the year so far in the UK . . . Showing more of it would be a guaranteed ratings winner.

“Oprah’s production company know they’re sitting on a gold mine, so it’s possible a deal could be done,” the source also said.

Since the interview, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex have spoken to Oprah’s best friend, “CBS This Morning” co-host Gayle King, who dished about their “not productive” private chats with Harry’s father and brother.

“The fallout from the interview is far from over and it feels like Harry and Meghan still have more to say publicly,” The Sunday People source said.
