Interviews were filmed both before and after Prince Philip’s death, with Harry’s segments filmed in the U.S., where he relocated last year with wifeMeghan Markle.
The documentary provides an “unrivaled” glimpse into Philip’s life with never-before-seen home movies from Queen Elizabeth’s private collection, as well as interviews from 15 of his children and grandchildren includingPrince William,Princess AnneandPrincess Eugenie(Kate Middleton, her three young children, Meghan and the Queen did not sit for interviews).
