Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have been setting up their life again in the UK following their recent return. Royal fans have speculated as to why the Sussexes<\/a> have decided to take up a home in Britain once more, but now, the real reason could have been revealed.<\/p>\n

Speaking on Talk TV, Charlotte Griffiths, Mail on Sunday editor-at-large, says the couple are returning for a new Netflix<\/a> deal in which Prince Harry<\/a> could make a documentary about his mother, Princess Diana<\/a>. She says: \u201cIt does explain, at long last, why they have come over to the UK. We have all been wondering and thinking it – it can\u2019t just be the education of their kids, it can\u2019t just be the King – there\u2019s always with the Sussexes.\u201d<\/p>\n

She adds: \u201cSo this would make a lot of sense.\u201d<\/p>\n

On August 31, 1997, Princess Diana died in a car crash in Paris. She was in the vehicle with her then-partner, Dodi Fayed.<\/p>\n

Dodi and the driver died instantly, while Diana<\/a>, who was 36, was pronounced dead hours later.<\/p>\n

Next August, in 2027, will mark the 30-year anniversary of the tragic incident.<\/p>\n

Prince Harry wants to honour Diana\u2019s legacy, \u201cin the most meaningful way\u201d, it is understood, and has reportedly already approached a number of her friends and relatives about taking part in a potential programme, including her brother, Earl Spencer.<\/p>\n

But Earl Spencer<\/a> has revealed in his new memoir, Swan Song: Diana, My Sister, that he deliberately chose to write a book rather than appear as what he described as a \u201ctalking head\u201d in one of the many productions being planned about his sister.<\/p>\n

The Earl said he feared documentaries could be driven by a \u201cflawed\u201d agenda set by producers.<\/p>\n

The Mirror reports that Harry\u2019s plans for a personal documentary are likely to add another layer to tensions within the Royal Family<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The documentary has been the subject of speculation. People Magazine<\/a> reports that no documentary project has yet been finalised or confirmed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have been setting up their life again in the UK following their recent…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":613313,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[302073,189382,8668,113424,156,4866,111,139,69,3578,17823,3164],"class_list":["post-613312","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-entertainment","tag-charles-sp","tag-charles-spencer","tag-diana","tag-earl-spencer","tag-entertainment","tag-meghan-markle","tag-new-zealand","tag-newzealand","tag-nz","tag-prince-harry","tag-princess-of-wales","tag-royal-family"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/613312","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=613312"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/613312\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/613313"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=613312"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=613312"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=613312"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
