New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern says she found out she would be appearing in the Duke and Duchess of Sussex's new series the day the trailer was released.
Ardern appeared in Live to Lead, a new documentary project which will feature "committed leaders who are making a difference in the world."
Ardern said on Wednesday that she had had no contact with the Sussexes about the project and the footage they were using was linked to a November 2019 interview with the Nelson Mandela Foundation. She said she has nothing against the foundation's right to use the footage as they see fit.
"Live to Lead" is part of the deal the Duke and Duchess of Sussex have with Netflix. Harry and Meghan have said that: "Our lives, both independently of each other, but also as a couple, have enabled us to understand the power of the human spirit, courage, resilience and hope. Through our work with different communities in their premises, to enlighten people.”
The series is inspired by the legacy of Nelson Mandela. Harry and Meghan will come with exclusive interviews with Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Greta Thunberg, Bryan Stevenson, Jacinda Ardern, Siya Kolisi, Gloria Steinem and Albie Sachs.
