Because it is now abundantly clear that unless they are trashing the Windsors, the Sussexes have no currency, no access to Netflix\u2019s or anyone else\u2019s millions. Especially now they\u2019ve had their former $100million deal reduced to an arrangement which simply leaves Netflix with the option of \u2018first refusal\u2019 on any shows the Sussexes create.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">Meghan the domestic goddess is hardly cutting the mustard. Harry\u2019s Polo docu-series was a flop, just like his worthy but unremarkable documentary on the Invictus Games, which he co-founded<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">But there is one thing this former distinguished soldier has left in his armoury: a Netflix series about Diana.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">This would surely net the couple squillions, enough to pay for Harry and Megs\u2019s self-indulgent lifestyle for decades to come.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">Indeed Harry is even reported to be in serious talks with Netflix to produce such a series for broadcast around the 30th anniversary of Diana\u2019s death in 2027. Which should sound serious alarm bells for both King Charles and Prince William &#8211; as well as Queen Camilla and Princess Catherine, both of whom were vilified in his memoir Spare.<\/p>\n<p>   <img decoding=\"async\" id=\"i-ba49a149c22de0e2\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/101666701-15047175-image-m-50_1756483701909.jpg\" height=\"919\" width=\"634\" alt=\"Prince Harry is rumoured to be in discussions with streaming giant Netflix for a documentary marking 30 years since Princess Diana's death\" class=\"blkBorder img-share\" style=\"max-width:100%\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>   <\/p>\n<p class=\"imageCaption\">Prince Harry is rumoured to be in discussions with streaming giant Netflix for a documentary marking 30 years since Princess Diana&#8217;s death<\/p>\n<p>   <img decoding=\"async\" id=\"i-c45c195d43a32a9b\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/101666691-15047175-image-a-47_1756483687054.jpg\" height=\"431\" width=\"634\" alt=\"A series about his mother is one thing\u00a0is one thing that Harry does have left in his armoury\" class=\"blkBorder img-share\" style=\"max-width:100%\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>   <\/p>\n<p class=\"imageCaption\">A series about his mother is one thing\u00a0is one thing that Harry does have left in his armoury<\/p>\n<p>   <img decoding=\"async\" id=\"i-955bea939955e9ab\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/101666707-15047175-image-a-48_1756483693419.jpg\" height=\"371\" width=\"634\" alt=\"The Sussexes impact has greatly dwindled since the first episode of\u00a0Harry &amp; Meghan\" class=\"blkBorder img-share\" style=\"max-width:100%\" loading=\"lazy\" \/>   <\/p>\n<p class=\"imageCaption\">The Sussexes impact has greatly dwindled since the first episode of\u00a0Harry &amp; Meghan<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">Imagine the proposed script. Me and my mother joyfully sliding down the water slope at Thorpe Park. Me, just 12 years old, tearful and distraught, being forced by the cruel Royal Family to walk behind my mother\u2019s coffin.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">No mention of William\u2019s pain &#8211; he has of course been relegated to the role of Harry\u2019s nemesis, the ultimate villain.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">Me sitting through the funeral service listening to my uncle Charles Spencer\u2019s euology: \u2018My sister Diana was the very essence of compassion, of duty, of style, of beauty\u2019 and the \u2018most hunted woman of the modern age&#8230;\u2019<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">Then more attacks on the beastly royals and the media &#8211; not mentioning of course that Diana calculatingly used the very same media throughout her life to promote herself and demean Charles and Camilla, even going as far as to say in that famous Panorama interview that Charles was unfit, unwilling and unlikely to ever become King.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">And that\u2019s just the beginning. Crikey, Harry will have the whole world crying over his suffering in his My Mum Netflix documentary.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">Yet quite where Meghan fits into this narrative is unclear, though she will no doubt insert herself into the pitiful story of Harry\u2019s woes, to be revealed as his saviour from the cruel, dysfunctional royals who she claims drove her to contemplate suicide.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">Of course Harry suffered unimaginable torment with the loss of his mother. But he should not rake it up all over again, for everyone\u2019s sakes, not least his.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mol-para-with-font\">The sad truth, however, is that he\u2019s likely to squeeze out every last drop of his victimhood to carry on making the Netflix millions. And the Royal Family should be quivering with apprehension<\/p>\n<p>                    Share or comment on this article:<br \/>\n                        AMANDA PLATELL: I know Meghan and Harry&#8217;s next move after their latest massive failure&#8230; and this is why Kate, William and the rest of the royals should quiver in fear<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"By AMANDA PLATELL, DAILY MAIL COLUMNIST Published: 13:01 EDT, 29 August 2025 | Updated: 13:02 EDT, 29 August&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":383724,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[7708],"tags":[7709,7714,7713,92,6405,533,451,2832,532,1412,2831,7710,519,7711,7712],"class_list":{"0":"post-383723","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-royals","8":"tag-british-royal-family","9":"tag-catherine","10":"tag-catherine-middleton","11":"tag-dailymail","12":"tag-debate","13":"tag-kate-middleton","14":"tag-netflix","15":"tag-prince-of-wales","16":"tag-prince-william","17":"tag-princess-diana","18":"tag-princess-of-wales","19":"tag-royal-families","20":"tag-royal-family","21":"tag-uk-royal-family","22":"tag-william"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/115114763016010445","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/383723","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=383723"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/383723\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/383724"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=383723"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=383723"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=383723"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
