Harry and Meghan's '£88m fly-on-the-wall Netflix series is delayed a year' as producers are 'spooked' by furious backlash over The Crown's 'hurtful' smears against King Charles

The controversial fly-on-the-wall documentary series featuring the Duke and Duchess of Sussex for Netflix has been postponed until next year, following the widespread backlash over The Crown.

Harry and Meghan had been working on the series as part of their rumoured $100 million (£88million) deal with the streaming giant. But with The Crown accused of fabricating a ‘hurtful’ smear against King Charles by depicting him secretly plotting to oust the Queen, Netflix has now pushed it back.

The documentary had been expected in December, following the fifth season of The Crown. A source told Hollywood news website Deadline: ‘They’re rattled at Netflix, and they blinked first and decided to postpone the documentary.’

The decision to halt the documentary series comes just weeks after the Sussexes were reportedly ‘at odds’ with the production staff about making ‘extensive edits’.

They “didn’t want to be Royal” so remove all their titles and take them out of Line of Succession. Problem solved.

Harkle update.

His alleged memoir now has a street date...

Interesting thing: Release date will the same on both sides of The Pond.

So while we had to wait for Bower’s book in the US, and are still waiting for Valentine Low’s book over here, Harry’s gets the same street date. Which is also before Low’s book is released over here.

Wonder if Harry will tell us just how that pap in France knew right where and when to be to get those topless pics of Kate a decade ago...
