Lifetime has long planned for a third movie, but it wasn't until recently did they finally could confirm. Since a year ago, news of a second sequel has emerged. The third movie is titled 'Harry & Meghan: Escaping the Palace!' and will focus on the story of Megxit and the drama that revolves around it. Deadline reported this movie would be about "what really happened inside the palace that drove Harry and Meghan to leave everything behind to make a future for themselves and their son Archie."
The movie is a sequel to the previous movie, 'Harry & Meghan: Becoming Royal' that was released in 2019.

The executive producers are Merideth Finn and Michele Weiss, and Menhaj Huda will direct it. Scarlett Lacey returns as the screenwriter after writing for the previous two Lifetime movies.
Speaking about how she wrote her screenplay, Lacey told Vanity Fair they were from "smattering of sources—from real life and reports—for her screenplay." There were close people of the royals, journalists, but essentially Lacey relied a lot on her imagination.
The movie is set to be released later this year.
