Prince Harry and Meghan Markle made a trip to a low-income school in New York in 2021 for filming their Netflix documentary. This took place just 18 months after the couple stepped down from their royal duties in 2020. Now it has been revealed that they made a lengthy list of bizarre requests to the school so that everything went without a glitch, reported Daily Mail.

Harry and Meghan suggested that the school brings cushions and a new carpet so that it suits “Meghan’s aesthetic”.

Their staff took time to choose which school they would visit and went through multiple edits of the press release to ensure that the visit sounded “more substantial”. Archwell staff also demanded that consent forms were signed to ensure that no negative comments were made publicly, both after the visit and in the future. The teachers and the students of the school were banned from discussing the project at all.

“I agree to not make negative, derogatory, or otherwise unfavorable statements about, or otherwise denigrate or disparage, any of the Released Parties,” the statement read.

DailyMail said it obtained the files via an FOIA request and found out that everything was orchestrated for Harry and Meghan’s public appearances filmed for the documentary.

British tabloids were banned from covering their school visit and only Meghan-friendly publications like Vogue were allowed coverage.

Harry and Meghan’s trip to New York in September 2021 was designed to showcase them as world leaders as it included a stop at the United Nations to talk about vaccine equity. Their itinerary included a speaking appearance at the Global Citizen festival in Central Park, where they were constantly tailed by a camera crew for the six-part Netflix series, Harry & Meghan, which premiered last December.

Meghan appeared at the low-income school wearing a $5,840 Loro Piana cashmere coat and matching $1,680 pants.
