Prince William Vows to Hit Back at Royal Family Smears in Harry and Meghan’s Netflix Documentary
The Duke of Cambridge, Prince William, has reportedly vowed to hit back at smears against the royal family in the upcoming Netflix documentary series by Prince Harry and Meghan Markle.
According to sources, the Prince of Wales can no longer sit idly by and allow the Sussexes to deliver transatlantic swipes at the royal firm.
Instead, he has allegedly instructed aides to comb through the six-part series and swiftly respond to any inaccurate claims.
The source stated that the Prince and Princesses team will wait to see what's in the Netflix series before deciding what to do, but it is clear that they will take action.
This alleged change of tack in dealing with the California-based duo will see the future king tear up the never-complain, never-explain royal mantra.
In the past, the royal family has taken their time in responding to explosive claims from Harry and Meghan.
Trending:
Buckingham Palace took two days to issue a rebuttal to the groundbreaking Oprah Winfrey interview where the pair claimed a royal made a racist remark about baby Archie's skin tone.
The allegation was categorically denied by the palace.
The revelation follows the release of a trailer for the series as the Prince and Princes of Wales were on royal visit to Boston, Massachusetts.
Speaking to The Sun, a royal source accused the Sussexes of timing the trailer's release to deliberately spoil William and Kate's US trip.
In the 59-second trailer for the long-awaited £88 million show, Meghan can be seen wiping tears as Harry looks distressed.
A raft of previously unseen photos of the pair are also shown, including romantic selfies, and one of Harry strumming a guitar.
At the start of the clip, the pair are asked, why did you want to make this documentary?
Harry says, nobody sees what's happening behind closed doors.
I had to do everything I could to protect my family.
And, Meghan says, when the stakes are this high doesn't it make more sense to hear our story from us?
The show is said to give an insight into the pair's love story and will be streamed from December 8.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex reportedly requested a delay to the show, putting them at loggerheads with Netflix chiefs.
The couple are understood to have wanted to push the controversial TV series back to 2023 amid backlash over the new series of The Crown.
The release of the series comes as Prince Harry's explosive £35 million memoir spares due out January 10.
With the involvement of Prince William, they will have to remove any photos of Buckingham Palace, because they didn't have permission to film or photograph there.
It is clear that they had already begun negotiations with Netflix, as they brought a photographer and filmographer along to document their goodbye tour.
This revelation contradicts their previous claims that they were not working with the streaming giant.
Harry's studios do it because it costs money to launch a movie, marketing and promo, but also physically rolling out a film onto screens, and if they flop, it's all over the trades and everyone knows.
Netflix has done the trailer already, these two hardly need promotion, they own the distribution platform and they don't ever have to release how many people actually watched it.
Prince Harry may be allowed to slink back with his tail between his legs, but it is unlikely that Charles will allow Meghan anywhere near his coronation.
Harry and Meghan are awful people, without merit.
Even the things that Markle thinks are flattering, people laugh at.
She has no insight at all.
She thought the cut article was awesome until the mockery told her otherwise and she thought the variety photos would stop the internet.
She is obsessed with showing more of herself when she just makes more and more people repulsed.
In conclusion, it is clear that Prince William is taking a different approach in dealing with Harry and Meghan's transatlantic swipes at the royal family.
The upcoming Netflix documentary series has caused a stir, and the royal family is gearing up to respond to any inaccurate claims.
It remains to be seen how the series will be received, but it is clear that the royal family is not taking any chances.
