Prince Harry's dedication to the Invictus Games and his reflections on family dynamics take center stage in a newly unveiled documentary now streaming on Hulu.
This unexpected feature, titled "Prince Harry's Mission: Life, Family, and the Invictus Games," draws from recent interviews Harry granted to ABC News in Canada. Notably, it includes his appearance on Good Morning America on February 16th, where he expressed gratitude for being able to fly to the UK to support King Charles after the Monarch's cancer diagnosis.
While the documentary's release on Hulu caught some by surprise, a senior source at Netflix confirmed that Harry and his wife Meghan are still bound by their contract with the streaming giant. However, the news of the documentary's release seemed to have caught them off guard, suggesting a potential strain in their relationship with Netflix. Despite this, Harry would have been aware of the interview's usage and likely signed a release form allowing ABC to transform it into a documentary for Hulu.
Speculation swirls around Harry and Meghan's ties with Netflix, especially as their business and charitable endeavors are now relaunched under the new sussex.edu domain, absent from the Archewell Productions section. Some speculate trouble with Netflix, while others hint at a possible separation. Fans note that the Invictus Games logo prominently features in the documentary's promotional materials, emphasizing Harry's dedication to the cause he founded in 2014.
The documentary delves into Harry's passion for the Invictus Games, highlighting its success in raising funds and global participation. Commentators, including royal expert Robert Jobson, note how Harry's commitment to the event has garnered attention and, perhaps, sparked jealousy in his older brother, Prince William. Jobson suggests that William may have been surprised by the extent of the games' success and the level of international support it has garnered.
Additionally, the documentary touches on the complexities within the royal family, including the alleged feud between Harry and William and the dynamics with their spouses. Robert Jobson's commentary suggests that William may have felt some jealousy towards Harry's accomplishments, particularly with the Invictus Games, despite his own involvement in charitable initiatives.
The documentary also raises questions about familial relationships within the royal family, with suggestions that King Charles should have made more effort to connect with Harry and Meghan's children, Archie and Lilibet. However, some critics view the documentary as another installment in a supposed "hate campaign" against the Waleses, particularly while Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge, is recovering from recent health issues.
Contrary to insinuations of jealousy, Prince William's involvement in the Invictus Games is highlighted, including his significant contribution of £1 million to the organization. Questions about Harry's financial support for Invictus arise, with suggestions that William already has numerous responsibilities to manage, leaving little room for envy.
