According to royal biographer Angela Levin, Harry will “stop” any coverage of his relationship with Meghan being broadcast on the show, which dramatises the lives of the royal family.

Speaking to BBC Breakfast Angela said: “Harry, when I went to interview him at the Palace, the first thing he said to me when I shook his hand was, ‘Are you watching The Crown?’

“I hadn’t been at the time, I felt very embarrassed and I got it and he said, ‘I’m going to make sure I stop it before they get to me.'”
