Of Harry and Meghan involvement in the docuseries, the spokesperson added, “They are choosing to share their story, on their terms, and yet the tabloid media has created an entirely untrue narrative that permeates press coverage and public opinion. The facts are right in front of them.”
Harry and Meghan—who are parents to son Archie Harrison, 3, and daughter Lilibet “Lili” Diana, 18 months—announced plans to reduce their duties as senior royals in January 2020, explaining that they hoped to “become financially independent” while continuing to fully support then-monarch Queen Elizabeth II.
“It is with your encouragement, particularly over the last few years, that we feel prepared to make this adjustment,” the shared. “We now plan to balance our time between the United Kingdom and North America, continuing to honour our duty to The Queen, the Commonwealth, and our patronages. This geographic balance will enable us to raise our son with an appreciation for the royal tradition into which he was born, while also providing our family with the space to focus on the next chapter, including the launch of our new charitable entity.”
