The Duke and Duchess of Sussex made statements that seemed to ‘contradict’ each other and left filmmakers baffled, it has been claimed.
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have started filming their Netflix docu-series which is set to air in December.
But according to Page Six, producers filming the show were left ‘confused’ by the couple’s statements as they are different from what Harry wrote in his memoir.
“A lot in the show contradicted what Harry has written, so that was an issue,” a Netflix source said to the publication.
“Then Harry and Meghan made significant requests to walk back content they themselves have provided, for their own project.”
Page Six previously reported that Harry and Meghan wanted to delay the release of their show until next year to make significant changes to the production.
But the publication has revealed that the streaming giant “stuck to its guns” to air the docu-series after the new season of The Crown has been released.
This comes after royal biographer Tom Bower said that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex were ‘stuck with the devil’ over their deals with Penguin Publishing and Netflix for Harry’s memoir and the docu-series.
“They need the money and they need it now more than ever because they’ve got no other source of income. So I think they’re just stuck with the devil now,” he said when he appeared on GB News.
Mr. Bower continued: “’They’re tied to Netflix, they’re tied to their book. And all the criticism they’re going to take means nothing because that’s the only way they can earn their money.”
He also said that he couldn’t see how the couple could give up both the book and Netflix deal.
