Harry and Meghan: How much did Duke and Duchess of Sussex get from Netflix for series

Netflix is set to release the highly anticipated documentary series on Prince Harry and his wife, Meghan Markle.

Volume 1 of Meghan & Harry will land on the streaming platform tomorrow. The six part series promises to document the couple's story in their own words.

The synopsis for the series promises to "explore the clandestine days of their early courtship and the challenges that led to them feeling forced to step back from their full-time roles in the institution." The Duke and Duchess of Sussex announced they had signed the deal with Netflix in September 2020, just six months after they moved to California.

A statement at the time said: "Our lives, both independent of each other, and as a couple have allowed us to understand the power of the human spirit: of courage, resilience, and the need for connection. Through our work with diverse communities and their environments, to shining a light on people and causes around the world, our focus will be on creating content that informs but also gives hope."

According to Mirror Online, it has been reported their deal is worth up to $100million. Royal fans are eagerly awaiting the documentary, which has been billed as a "Netflix Global Event".

The final three episodes of the series will arrive next week on Thursday, December 15.

The couple set up a production firm named Archewell Productions after the deal to create a series of films and documentaries. The production company has also announced Heart of Invictus, which follows competitors preparing for the Invictus Games.
