Prince Harry And Oprah Partner On Mental Health Series For Apple
Apple has roped in some pretty big names as it looks to grow its slate of original content for its Apple+ streaming service. Oprah is one of them and she can rightly be considered TV royalty. Apple has now gone ahead and got actual royalty in the form of the Duke of Sussex, better known as Prince Harry, who will be teaming up with Oprah for a mental health docu-series.
Prince Harry and Oprah are partners, co-creators, and executive producers on this as-yet-unnamed mental health series which is going to launch on Apple’s platform in 2020. The two have been working on this series for months.
It will be a multi-part documentary series that focuses on both mental illness and mental wellness. The idea is to inspire viewers to have an honest conversation about the challenges that most of us face and how we can equip ourselves with the tools that help us “not simply survive, but to thrive.”
“Our hope is that this series will be positive, enlightening and inclusive – sharing global stories of unparalleled human spirit fighting back from the darkest places, and the opportunity for us to understand ourselves and those around us better. I am incredibly proud to be working alongside Oprah on this vital series,” said Prince Harry.

We are excited to announce that The Duke of Sussex and Oprah Winfrey are partners, co-creators and executive producers on their forthcoming mental health series launching on Apple in 2020. The pair have been developing the series for several months and are looking forward to sharing such an important project on this global platform. The dynamic multi-part documentary series will focus on both mental illness and mental wellness, inspiring viewers to have an honest conversation about the challenges each of us faces, and how to equip ourselves with the tools to not simply survive, but to thrive. This commitment builds on The Duke of Sussex’s long-standing work on issues and initiatives regarding mental health, where he has candidly shared personal experience and advocated for those who silently suffer, empowering them to get the help and support they deserve. His Royal Highness has spent many years working with communities throughout the UK and young people across the Commonwealth to break the stigma surrounding mental illness and broaden the conversation of mental wellness to accelerate change for a more compassionate, connected and positive society. Quote from HRH: “I truly believe that good mental health – mental fitness – is the key to powerful leadership, productive communities and a purpose-driven self. It is a huge responsibility to get this right as we bring you the facts, the science and the awareness of a subject that is so relevant during these times. Our hope is that this series will be positive, enlightening and inclusive – sharing global stories of unparalleled human spirit fighting back from the darkest places, and the opportunity for us to understand ourselves and those around us better. I am incredibly proud to be working alongside Oprah on this vital series.”
