Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s Bombshell Netflix Docuseries Receives a Prestigious Award Nod, Days After ‘Beckham’ Stole the Spotlight
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s docuseries, Harry & Meghan, sent shockwaves across the world with its bombshell revelations. While it might have made the royal teacups rattle, Netflix won the streaming battle with flying colors. The docuseries garnered 81.55 million viewing hours globally in its first week of release, ranking in the top ten list in 85 countries. However, despite the massive viewership, the show came up empty-handed in the awards department.
