Queen Camilla to star in new documentary following Prince Harry bombshell
Queen Camilla is set to star in a new documentary following Prince Harry’s recent bombshell.
The Queen’s domestic violence campaign is being highlighted in a new ITV documentary, the news of which comes just one month after the Duke of Sussex was interviewed on the same channel about his legal pursuits.
Camilla, 77, has allowed a camera crew to film her at work for the past year.
Her Majesty The Queen: Behind Closed Doors” will feature conversations between the Queen and the victims of domestic abuse, as well as relatives who have lost loved ones and those working to end violence against women.
The 90-minute documentary will be broadcast later this year.
Queen Camilla is patron of the charity SafeLives and has made many visits, both officially and privately, to women’s refuges.
She recently backed calls for a domestic abuse campaign to be introduced in schools nationwide.
Camilla has also said that young people should be taught “respect” as part of the drive to “obliterate” such violence.
The news of this programme comes as Prince Harry, 39, took part in a bombshell ITV documentary just last month, titled “Tabloids on Trial”.
The father-of-two discussed his privacy lawsuit win against Rupert Murdoch’s News Group Newspapers (NGN) titles The Sun and the now-defunct News of the World, which closed in 2011.
He spoke at length about the ongoing legal battle and why the late Queen Elizabeth II is “very much up there saying, ‘See this through to the end.'”
The duke alleges he was targeted by journalists and private investigators.
NGN has denied any illegal wrongdoing ever took place.
In December, Judge Justice Timothy Fancourt ruled in Harry’s favour in a 386-page decision handed down in the High Court.
He said that phone hacking, which for the duke dated back to 2003, was “widespread and habitual” at Mirror Group Newspapers, and that executives there had covered it up.
Harry, who broke with royal tradition in this fight, became the first in the family to testify in open court in over a century.
