Prince William's documentary to drop on rival platform to Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's series

The two-part documentary will give an exclusive, behind-the-scenes look at the first year of Prince William and The Royal Foundation’s Homewards programme.

This comes four years after the Duke and Duchess of Sussex signed lucrative deals with Netflix and Spotify, shortly after stepping down as working royals.

The Sussexes' deal with Spotify later came to an end in the summer of 2023, after Meghan's podcast Archetypes only produced 12 episodes.

Meghan, 43, and Harry, 40, are in the process of producing two upcoming series for Netflix.

The duke is focusing on his love of polo, while the duchess will be releasing a lifestyle series to accompany her new brand, American Riviera Orchard.

Harry's older brother Prince William, 42, is now releasing a documentary on Disney+, a rival platform to Netflix.

This programme is set to aim to change perceptions and demonstrate that it is possible to end homelessness.

The documentary is executive produced by Mindhouse and Arron Fellows and directed by BAFTA award-winning Director Leo Burley.

Before launching on Disney+, “Prince William: We Can End Homelessness,” will debut exclusively in the UK on ITV.

"We Can End Homelessness" follows the first year of Homewards, Prince William’s ambitious five-year program that aims to show it is possible to end homelessness, by working with six locations across the UK.

This series goes behind-the-scenes as Prince William launches his new initiative, and grants unique access as he sets to work to combat the crisis.

Viewers will see him draw on the guidance of people who have experienced homelessness across a series of moving encounters.

In candid interviews, the Prince of Wales shares the inspiration he has taken from the example of his mother, Diana, Princess of Wales.

After recruiting his dedicated Homewards team to investigate the issue across the UK, the prince takes action as he plans to build supported housing on his own land.
