Earlier this year, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle signed a lucrative production deal with the streaming giant Netflix. Now, however, this is already coming back to bite Harry, as the deal has landed him in “hot water.”

The U.K. Express reported that Harry has found himself being scrutinized for associating with Netflix after the way the streaming service portrayed the relationship between his parents, Prince Charles and Princess Diana, in the latest season of “The Crown.” TalkRADIO host Mike Graham discussed this with his guest, journalist Olivia Utley, on a recent episode of his show.

“Meghan and Harry are in a bit of trouble with this over the fact Harry has said nothing about the way in which his mother and father have been portrayed in this series,” Graham said, to which Utley replied, “He has got himself into some hot water. He has got this deal with Netflix so he can’t really say anything.”

She went on to add that Harry will find himself in similar situations going forwards due to “massive conflicts of interest”.

“Netflix is where their next paycheck is coming from,” Utley explained. “Prince Harry is going to find himself in situations like this surely over and over again. How could he have just run off to Hollywood and not realized there are going to be huge consequences? There are going to be massive conflicts of interest all the time.”

“This whole ‘Crown’ Netflix thing is not going to go away,” Graham said. “I know some people are sick to death about hearing about Harry and Meghan. But there are still people who believe Harry and Meghan are part of the Royal Family, there are still people who believe they are trading on that name. And I am afraid we are not going to stop picking them up on it. It is as simple as that.”

Harry and Meghan shocked the world earlier this year when they stepped down as senior royals and left the United Kingdom. They briefly moved to Canada before relocating to Meghan’s hometown of Los Angeles, California. There, they lived in the $18 million mansion of the Hollywood mogul Tyler Perry until they bought their own $14 million, nine bedroom home in Montecito back in July.
