Mic drop: Right when you finished setting up a calendar alert for Prince Harry’s royal memoir Spare, which drops on January 10, there’s more major Sussex news. People has confirmed that Harry’s Netflix docuseries, filmed with his wife Meghan Markle, is set to come out even sooner—in December to be exact.
But hold the royal phone: Is there a chance we have a tentative date? In a recent column penned for Yahoo by Finding Freedom author and royal expert Omid Scobie, he revealed that Spare will be “released one month after the Sussexes’ forthcoming Netflix docuseries drops.”
By our calculations—and as Roberta Fiorito and I discuss on a recent episode of the Royally Obsessed podcast—that’s pretty specific. (Ahem, does that mean that December 10 is the exact date of the docuseries’ release?)
Time will tell—either way, we can’t wait to see what director Liz Garbus has in store. As Markle herself shared in her recent interview with Variety, “It’s nice to be able to trust someone with our story—a seasoned director whose work I’ve long admired—even if it means it may not be told the way we would have told it.”
