Harry and Meghan's UK return linked to Diana documentary

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have been settling back into life in the UK after their recent return. Royal observers have questioned why the couple have decided to establish a residence in Britain again, but the real reason may now have surfaced.

Netflix deal speculation

Speaking on Talk TV, Charlotte Griffiths, Mail on Sunday editor-at-large, suggested the pair are returning for a fresh Netflix agreement in which Prince Harry might produce a documentary about his mother, Princess Diana. She remarked: "It does explain, at long last, why they have come over to the UK. We have all been wondering and thinking it - it can't just be the education of their kids, it can't just be the King - there's always with the Sussexes."

She added: "So this would make a lot of sense."

Princess Diana's legacy

Princess Diana died in a car accident in Paris on August 31, 1997. She was travelling with her then-partner, Dodi Fayed. Dodi and the driver were killed instantly, while Diana, who was 36, was declared dead hours afterwards, reports the Express.

The couple have enrolled their children at schools in the UK. Next August, in 2027, will mark the 30-year anniversary of the tragic event.

Earl Spencer's memoir

Prince Harry wishes to celebrate Diana's legacy "in the most meaningful way", it is understood, and has reportedly already contacted numerous friends and family members about participating in a potential programme, including her brother, Earl Spencer. However, Earl Spencer has disclosed in his new memoir, Swan Song: Diana, My Sister, that he intentionally opted to write a book instead of featuring as what he termed a "talking head" in one of the numerous projects being planned about his sister.

The Earl expressed concern that documentaries could be influenced by a "flawed" agenda set by producers.

Potential tensions

The Mirror suggests that Harry's intentions for a personal documentary could potentially heighten tensions within the Royal Family. Speculation surrounds the documentary. People Magazine reports that no documentary project has been finalised or confirmed as yet.
