Will Prince Harry and Meghan Markle Share Their Love Story in a Documentary? Markle Hints Yes

Could we be getting a royal documentary about the love story between Prince Harry and Meghan Markle? While chatting with Allison P. Davis for a cover story in The Cut, the Duchess of Sussex seemed to be subtly hinting at “yes.”

During this interview, Markle talked about everything from her new podcast, Archetypes, to her canceled children's series, Pearl. But, while the royal's animated children's series may have been nixed during cutbacks by the streaming service, she and Prince Harry still have a major deal inked with Netflix, and so that leaves a lot of mystery surrounding what could be next.

Although the couple firmly denied that they will be doing a reality show, Markle told Davis there is still a part of their lives that she would love to share. “The piece of my life I haven’t been able to share, that people haven’t been able to see, is our love story,” she said, adding that she finds comfort in knowing “above all, love wins.”

After stating this “love wins” mantra, the duchess also emphasized, “I hope that is the sentiment that people feel when they see any of the content or the projects that we are working on.”

However, this was about as detailed as Markle got when it came to her Netflix projects. When Davis pushed on whether she and Prince Harry would be releasing a love story documentary, Markle teasingly said, “What’s so funny is I’m not trying to be cagey. I don’t read any press. So I don’t know what’s confirmed. I will tell you Liz Garbus is incredible. Liz Garbus also worked on Pearl.”

She also ended by saying, “When the media has shaped the story around you, it’s really nice to be able to tell your own story.”

While we may have to wait a while to see this romantic doc, we know that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex also have other plans up their sleeve.

It was reported last year that Prince Harry would star in a docuseries about his Invictus Games—a Paralympics-style competition that he founded in 2014 for wounded service personnel and veterans. Meanwhile, although Markle's Pearl series got canceled, we have a feeling that won't be her last effort to make a children's show (especially since she just published a successful children's book last year).
