Netflix reportedly wants to show the series after the fifth season of The Crown, which is hugely popular in the US.

There is also some concern over its content.

We revealed last month that Harry was trying to make late edits to his £35million book in the wake of the Queen’s death, fearing parts were “insensitive” and needed “refining”.

It emerged yesterday that makers of their Netflix show say some of Harry’s comments in the book are at odds with those he has made on camera.

A source told the New York Post: “A lot in the show contradicted what Harry has written (in his book), so that was an issue.

“Then Harry and Meghan made significant requests to walk back content they themselves have provided for their own project.”

Harry and Meghan are said to discuss other royals — including King Charles, Camilla and Prince William — on the programme, directed by top US documentary maker Liz Garbus.

Sources said late edits are unwelcome as it needs translating into other languages.

One explained: “Netflix needs a couple of months to do all of the formatting and dubbing, subtitling and audio — the stuff that enables it to launch.”

The California-based couple have previously levelled racism accusations at the royals.

But The Sun told last week how they hoped for a reconciliation after the book and series come out.

They avoided criticising the Queen but it is feared they could have aimed barbs at Charles and Camilla before he became King.

Royal author Angela Levin said: “I am not surprised that they have found contradictions because you cannot trust what Harry and Meghan say.

“Meghan has ‘her truth’ and Harry is too weak to contradict her, even going along with the claim they had their wedding three days before the real thing in their Oprah interview.

“I think they may be worried about criticism of Charles and Camilla because they’ve seen how popular they are, with thousands lining the streets around the Queen’s funeral.”
