Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have finally released all six parts of their Netflix docuseries Harry & Meghan. While the couple has received a lot of sympathy and love, there has been a lot of criticism as well, especially from the crown servants and royal experts. The royal family supporters have questioned the legitimacy of the allegations levied by the Sussexes. Meanwhile, the couple is also receiving hate for mudslinging the royal family.

In the docuseries, the Duke and Duchess have projected themselves as the victims of the atrocities by the UK press and the senior royal members. They have mainly painted Prince William and Kate Middleton as evils. Prince Harry and Meghan Markle claimed that Wales were jealous of their popularity and success as working royals. Amidst all the royal chaos, the royal expert Kinsey Schofield has reflected on the Sussexes’ disappointment with the series.

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle were not provided with permission to edit the docuseries

In the podcast, To Di for Daily, Kinsey Schofield revealed that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are unhappy with the way things have been projected in the Netflix docuseries. She claimed that the Sussex royals were keen on coming across as inspirational personalities who can bring a change in the world. Schofield further added that the former American actress is aware of the fact that the people want to move ahead from the royal drama and the series of accusations and blames. 

“Sussexes are a bit disappointed with the final product. They feel like the docuseries lean too much into drama and victimhood. Today, Meghan wants to be seen as a thought leader and a changemaker, and they want to put the past behind them,” the royal expert said in the podcast.

Further, Kinsey Schofield mentioned that the Duke and Duchess did not have much say in the docuseries. They were not given any creative liberty over the project. Netflix was eager to showcase the series through director Liz Garbus’ lens. Before the release of the show, various reports suggested a tiff between the royal couple and Netflix bosses. Prince Harry and Meghan Markle wanted to edit certain scenes after Queen Elizabeth II’s death, but the streaming giant denied the permission.
