Over the six long hours of this scathing docuseries, viewers have been swept up in a wave of non-stop angst from Harry and Meghan; a sugar rush of turbo-tantrums, building to a moody funk.
However, I felt dizzy instead of enlightened after seeing it all, sickened by the sour sauce on their endless meats. At no time can either of them muster the courage or insight to venture a light touch, appreciate their wondrous good fortune, or admit that maybe, just maybe! — there were also times when they were wrong.
Instead, in these last few episodes, guilt spreads like cheap perfume and multiple scores are settled, while emotions run high. “My whole core was shaken to the core,” Meghan wails in one early scene, sounding like an unwitting apple preparing to crumble.
Strangely, this is exactly how she viewed her actual existence, even if both she and Harry still don’t understand why they gave so many people the pipe. And despite the ruthless nature of her offer for your pity, it’s still not entirely clear why the couple fled the tyranny of royal privilege for the roosts of Montecito.
Meghan Markle received a text from Beyonce saying she “admires and respects her bravery,” which was shown on her Netflix docu-series.
Tragically, it all seems to come down to a lack of positive media coverage.
Then as now, the couple sees the criticism as hate, the fair comment as outright hostility, and somehow convinced themselves that other members of the royal family were jealous of what they perceived as their vastly superior charisma. In fact, they take every opportunity to revel in their specialty.
In her wedding speech, we find out that Meghan even talks about her romance with Harry in the catchy third person. “They would love to garden, travel, laugh and rack up more airline miles than any couple,” she recited attentively for the cameras, because she just happened to have a copy of her speech on her phone. “And when the tides were strong, they got tighter.”

Well, I’m collecting something too, but it’s not the loyalty points that increase, it’s my gorge. Even the Sandringham Summit gets a dusting. Harry said that he was ‘terrified’ when he had a Megxit fight with his father and his brother while his goofy grandmother looked on and said nothing.
However, when he was a young prince, as he reminded us last week, he fought in two wars. Are we really going to believe that in this new Game of Thrones he was actually scared of King Charles, the Fountain Pen Knocker, and ‘We’re Not A Racist Family’ Prince William? This emotional mix of events to fit the Sussexes’ schedule is exhausting; they never fail to glaze the ham.
Meghan even blames tabloids for ‘accidentally’ raising hate because they are bored. ‘Are my babies safe?’ she asked herself in an emotional segment worthy of a Hallmark movie, her eyes filling with tears, tears spilling over and her lips trembling.

A montage of nonsense to support this fear filled the screen: hate tweets from the lurid, unhinged headlines of trashy supermarket magazines published in Australia and the US, robust reporting from the British media.
This is the usual ground that all celebrities must trade in the ugly word of modern communication. But instead of navigating it, the Sussexes became obsessed with it and went insane in the process. They felt they deserved better and decided to do something about it.
In the end, Harry and Meghan left the UK because, they said, they wanted to be themselves and live authentic lives. However, how ironic that there is so little authenticity in this multi-million dollar Netflix series. In fact, there’s hardly a second where they’re not acting or performing for their personal in-house camera crew.
Harry and Meghan have left the UK because they say they wanted to be themselves and live authentic lives.
And as images and photographs from their ‘personal archive’ fill in the gaps, it becomes increasingly clear that they never wanted to escape the spotlight, just to control how they looked in it.
In a meta moment, we see them watching their televised interview with Oprah. Snuggling up on the couch, they kiss at the end, supposedly triumphant.
Another scene finds them filmed in close-up as they cry during a therapy session. What kind of person does that? A person who wants your sympathy. In their ongoing story arc, Meghan and Harry have to present themselves as real victims if they want to succeed in America. Sweating under the biodome of the Hollywood celebrity, their supposed suffering is the only thing that makes them special: they have to hold on to their pain at all costs.
“She says she wants me to feel safe and protected,” Meghan said after Beyoncé offered her support via text message.
No wonder Meghan gets emotional when Beyoncé texts her to offer support. ‘She says that she wants me to feel safe and protected. She admires and respects my bravery and vulnerability and believes that I was selected to break generational curses that need to be healed,” Meghan says and nods. How wonderful that cameras were back on hand to capture this candid celebrity endorsement.
Throughout this six-part memoir of misery, Meghan gobbles up all the dramatic oxygen while Harry is a disheveled bogeyman beside her, his fluffy face suffused with love for his wife and unconcerned by deep thoughts.
The Sussexes are united in this karmic path. There’s no going back now, even if the ongoing drama on Planet Sussex is unlike anything on earth.
