Anderson Cooper interviews Prince Harry on 60 Minutes Sunday, January 8. The prince has a memoir, titled Spare, coming out January 10. Besides the book, Harry will discuss his childhood, the loss of his mother, and his life as the Duke of Sussex, both in the U.K. and now in California.

Harry is the younger son of Charles and the late Princess Diana. He’s the brother of William and his wife is Meghan Markle. Harry and Markle stepped down from the royal family in 2020 and relocated to Southern California.

Prince Harry told Cooper he’s been a victim of leaks amid the royal family. "Every single time I've tried to do it privately there have been briefings and leakings and planting of stories against me and my wife," he said of his conversations within the family. "You know, the family motto is never complain, never explain, but it's just a motto."

Cooper anchors Anderson Cooper 360˚ on CNN. He’s been a 60 Minutes correspondent since 2006.

60 Minutes is on CBS.

Harry and Meghan sat with Oprah Winfrey for a CBS special, Oprah with Meghan and Harry: A Primetime Special, in 2021. The telecast did a very high rating. ■

Netflix has acquired Heart of Invictus, a docuseries from the Duke and Duchess of Sussex about service members who have suffered life-changing injuries or illnesses as they prepare for the Invictus Games. Prince Harry and wife Meghan Markle are behind Archewell Productions. 

The series depicts the Invictus Games The Hague 2020, which shifted to 2022. 

“The multi-episode series will join the competitors as they train, and along the way reveal powerful stories of resilience and hope,” goes the series description. “The series will also follow the organizers as they work to prepare for the Games, postponed until next spring, and as they partner with each nation’s team to support their competitors over the coming year.”

“The Duke and Duchess of Sussex and the Archewell Productions team are building an ambitious slate that reflects the values and causes they hold dear. From the moment I met them, it’s been clear that the Invictus Games hold a very special place in their hearts, and I couldn’t be happier that their first series for Netflix will showcase that for the world in a way never seen before,” said Ted Sarandos, co-CEO and chief content officer, Netflix.

Orlando von Einsiedel directs and Joanna Natasegara produces. 

Archewell was set up “to produce programming that informs, elevates and inspires.” 

“Since the very first Invictus Games back in 2014, we knew that each competitor would contribute in their own exceptional way to a mosaic of resilience, determination and resolve,” said Prince Harry. “This series will give communities around the world a window into the moving and uplifting stories of these competitors on their path to the Netherlands next year. As Archewell Productions’ first series with Netflix, in partnership with the Invictus Games Foundation, I couldn’t be more excited for the journey ahead or prouder of the Invictus community for continuously inspiring global healing, human potential and continued service.”

Prince Harry will appear in the series and is executive producer. 

Lifetime is at work on its third movie in the Prince Harry/Meghan Markle franchise with Harry & Meghan: Escaping the Palace. Production is set to begin this spring and the premiere is lined up for later this year. 

In 2018, Lifetime premiered movie Harry & Meghan, and a year later it was Harry & Meghan: Becoming Royal.

“Harry & Meghan: Escaping the Palace reveals what really happened inside the palace that drove Harry and Meghan to leave everything behind in order to make a future for themselves and their son Archie,” said Lifetime. “The movie will detail Meghan's growing isolation and sadness, their disappointment that ‘The Firm’ was not defending them against the press's attacks and Harry’s fear that history would repeat itself and he would not be able to protect his wife and son from the same forces that caused his mother’s untimely death.”

Lifetime said the movie will also reveal the feuds between Harry and brother Will, Meghan and Will’s wife Kate, and Harry and his father Charles, Prince of Wales.

Harry and Meghan drew a giant crowd when CBS aired their interview with Oprah Winfrey earlier this month. The couple departed the House of Windsor last year, freeing themselves of royal duties, and reside in California with Archie. 

Harry & Meghan: Escaping The Palace is executive produced by Merideth Finn and Michele Weiss. Menhaj Huda will direct from a script by Scarlett Lacey. 

Buckingham Palace issued a statement Tuesday in response to Prince Harry's and Meghan Markle's interview with Oprah Winfrey.

"The whole family is saddened to learn the full extent of how challenging the last few years have been for Harry and Meghan," said the statement, which was released by Buckingham Palace on behalf of the Queen.

The statement comes two days after the interview aired in primetime on CBS. During the interview, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle opened up about why they left the UK and gave up royal life, citing issues over race and safety.

Oprah Winfrey interviews Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, Duchess of Sussex, Sunday, March 7 on CBS. Oprah with Meghan and Harry: A Primetime Special is on 8 to 10 p.m. ET. 

In the interview, Markle said of the royals back in England, “I don't know how they could expect that, after all of this time, we would still just be silent if there is an active role that The Firm is playing in perpetuating falsehoods about us." 

The royal family is nicknamed The Firm. 

Markle is facing allegations from unnamed staffers of “emotional cruelty and manipulation.”

Buckingham Palace said it was “clearly very concerned” about the allegations.

Winfrey’s interview took place in late February. It was previewed on CBS This Morning March 5. 

The couple departed the House of Windsor last year. 

Harry was 12 when his mother, Princess Diana, died in a car crash. He told Winfrey his "biggest concern was history repeating itself," in terms of the way the U.K. treats its royal family. “I'm just really relieved and happy to be sitting here, talking to you, with my wife by my side," he said. "Because I can't begin to imagine what it must have been like for her, going through this process by herself, all those years ago. Because it has been unbelievably tough for the two of us. But at least we had each other." 

Prince Harry and wife Meghan have signed a multi-year deal with Netflix, which will see them make documentaries, docuseries, scripted shows, feature films and children’s programming.

Harry and Meghan may appear on camera in documentary programming, said the New York Times, but Meghan, an actress, does not plan on a return to acting. She starred in Suits when she was Meghan Markle. 

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex, who had a baby over a year ago, said they aim to create programming “that informs but also gives hope.”

Terms of the agreement were not revealed. 

The pair broke from their royal responsibilities in January. 

Harry and Meghan live in the Los Angeles area. 

The former royals had talks with Disney and Apple prior to inking the deal with Netflix, reported the New York Times, and Variety noted that they’d also met with NBCUniversal. 

Subscription video on demand service True Royalty Tv has positioned itself as the definitive source for royals-themed programming. From Princess Diana to Meghan Markle and Prince Harry, the $5.99 service offers more than 250 hours of programming on all things revolving around the British royal family.

True Royalty TV co-founders Gregor Angus and Nick Bullen discuss the True Royalty service in an MCN Original Videos' "OTT Spotlight" video.
