When director Liz Garbus partnered with Meghan Markle and Prince Harry to direct their six-part Netflix docuseries, ‘Harry & Meghan,’ each party had different primary objectives.
“Their interest was very much in telling their love story from their point of view, as opposed to the love story as told by others, and to share their personal archive in order to have that look behind the curtain.”
“For me, what was really important was to connect the dots to these larger historical issues,” says Garbus, referencing the story lines about racism, colonialism, and how important white supremacy has been to the British Empire monarchy. Speaking about Harry and Meghan, Garbus says, “They were, to their credit, very open and willing to journey down some of the paths that they might not have originally considered.
Given the public’s interest in Harry and Meghan, especially after the couple pulled away from official royal duties, Garbus was well aware that the docuseries would be her most anticipated project yet.
