Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are reportedly in discussions with Netflix for a high-profile documentary centered on Princess Diana’s life and tragic death—just as the 30th anniversary of her passing approaches.
A Los Angeles-based insider revealed that Prince Harry is expected to take a leading role in the project, serving as both host and co-executive producer. The source claimed that Harry is “uniquely placed” to explore his mother’s legacy, offering personal insights into the woman adored by millions around the world.
Although no formal deal has been signed, Netflix executives are said to be highly interested in the concept. Industry insiders speculate that the documentary could even serve as a bridge between Harry and Prince William, potentially helping them reconnect by honoring their late mother together.
This potential new project arrives as Harry and Meghan’s $100 million Netflix deal, signed in 2020, nears its expiration later this year. According to The Express, the Diana-focused documentary could become a key factor in securing an extension of their partnership with the streaming giant.
However, a source close to the Sussexes told The Independent that reports of the proposed Diana series are “not true,” casting doubt on the rumors. Despite this, the speculation alone has reignited global interest in Princess Diana’s enduring influence.
Meanwhile, Meghan’s latest Netflix project, With Love, Meghan, has made waves on the platform. The lifestyle and cookery series debuted this spring and quickly entered the top 10 rankings in both the USA and UK.
While the show received mixed reviews from critics, it has attracted a dedicated viewer base, underscoring Meghan’s growing influence in the lifestyle entertainment space.

Netflix co-CEO Ted Sarandos, who has previously called the Sussexes “the jewels in our crown,” recently defended Meghan’s series, noting that the company’s involvement with her production ventures remains in a “discovery” phase.
His statement suggests that Netflix still sees potential in its partnership with the Duke and Duchess of Sussex.
If the Diana documentary moves forward, it could mark Prince Harry’s most personal and ambitious project to date, allowing him to share an intimate perspective on his mother’s life and legacy.
Given the ongoing fascination with Princess Diana, such a series would likely draw significant attention and viewership.
Yet, questions remain about how the British royal family would react to the documentary. Prince William, who has fiercely guarded his mother’s memory, may not support such a deeply personal retelling—especially one produced by his estranged brother.
For now, the rumors surrounding Harry’s latest Netflix venture have fueled speculation about his evolving media career.
As the 30th anniversary of Princess Diana’s passing approaches, the possibility of a major documentary in her honor keeps her legacy alive in the public eye—and once again places Prince Harry at the center of the conversation.
