Prince Harry confessed he watches Netflix’s The Crown with his wife Meghan Markle.
And it seems the hit show is more accurate than people think.
The Duke of Sussex, 36, said it gives British viewers an idea about the lifestyle of the Royal Family and the pressures they’re under to put duty and service above their family.
However, Prince Harry explained “it’s loosely based on the truth” as James Corden grilled him on the US TV show The Late Late Show.
He added: “They don’t pretend to be news, it’s fictional but it’s loosely based on the truth.
“Of course it’s not strictly accurate, but loosely, it gives you a rough idea about what that lifestyle, what the pressures of putting duty and service above family and everything else, what can come from that.
“I am way more comfortable with The Crown than I am seeing the stories written about my family, or my wife or myself,” he confessed.
The latest series of The Crown mainly puts the marriage of Prince Charles (Josh O’Connor) and Lady Diana (Emma Corrin), Harry’s parents, under the microscope.
Also, the births of Princes William and Harry feature in the series as well as the royal couple’s marriage woes.
Elsewhere in the interview, Harry set the record straight when he said he never walked away from the Royal Family and he insisted he was only ever “stepping back”.
He explained: “It was never walking away, it was stepping back rather than stepping down. A really difficult environment.. It was destroying my mental health. This is toxic.
“I did anything any husband or father would do. I need to get my family out of here. But we never walked away.
“Whatever decisions are made on that side, I will never walk away. I will always be contributing. But my life is public service. Wherever I am in the world, it’s the same thing.”
