Still, why now? Why this format? It was the question that felt most top of mind to me as I watched. As Roya Nikkhah, who is Royal Editor for the Sunday Times, shared on her podcast<\/a>, called The Royals: \u201c[William\u2019s conversation with Eugene] was revelatory. It was extraordinary. And he\u2019s chosen not to do it with the BBC,\u201d she says. <\/p>\n

Apple TV+ is still a strategic choice. It\u2019s got a global audience of a billion, per Nikkhah. William also has a longstanding relationship with the platform, including Alison Kirkham, who\u2019s head of Unscripted at Apple TV. (He participated in Time to Walk<\/a> during the pandemic, an Apple Fitness+ off-shoot, which was well-received.) Bottom line: It appears the Prince of Wales has found himself a space that offers a degree of trust.<\/p>\n

Then, there\u2019s Levy. He\u2019s not a journalist. But he is a dad and a rather disarming person overall. Throughout the episode, his questions come across as thoughtfully curious versus intrusive. Levy himself revealed after the fact that, no, the questions weren\u2019t vetted, but it didn\u2019t feel right to ask about Harry: \u201cI had no interest in asking him about that, because it was, you know, a very delicate issue and certainly not up to me to get into it,\u201d he told ITV News<\/a>. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Still, why now?
