The couple are reportedly set to produce a new film for Netflix as part of their $112million (£88,000) deal with the streaming giant. The movie is based on the bestselling novel Meet Me at the Lake, by author Carley Fortune. The story focuses on a couple who fall in love in their 30s and deals with themes of childhood trauma and post-natal depression. It's proven to be a hit with readers, selling 37,000 copies in its first week alone. Meghan and Harry are said to have spent $3.8million (£3million) to secure the rights to the film. PR guru Mark Borkowski thinks the project could pay off for the Duke and Duchess of Sussex. However, he questioned why the couple had been chosen to produce the film as oppose to those with more experience. Mark said: "The rights for this could have cost up to £3million. Although if it's a best-seller, you wouldn't be handing it to Harry and Meghan." Speaking to The Sun, he added: "There's some amazing drama producers out there. Why would you give away a prize asset?" Meet Me at the Lake was published by Penguin Random House, the same company who published Harry's bombshell memoir Spare. According to the publication, Meghan also has a personal connection to the novel's author. For Meghan and Harry fans, one of the most standout plot points in Meet Me at the Lake is the death of a parent in a car crash. Harry was 12-years-old when his mother Princess Diana died in the same circumstances at the age of 36 in 1997. A source said the themes of the book "gripped the couple". The film is said to be the next stage of the couple's deal with Netflix. There had been speculation that the exclusive partnership was un){kind=link}
