I’d be interested to hear thoughts on this. He seems like such a stooge. It’s so tough being royalty and having the whole world’s lips adhered to your backside. I’m glad they can finally “walk in their truth” or whatever pretentious nonsense. 😂 Sorry to all you H & M fans, but I just don’t know what to make of them.

No thank you. I mean how many timed do we need to hear "everyone is mean to us?" They've already BTDT. For nearly 3 years.
I have deepest sympathies for everything they went through once they became a couple. But sheesh, I know Netflix is their cash cow, but couldn't they come up with something else? ANYthing else?
ETA: I am not a royals person. The sum of what I know about them is what I see on threads here, and occasionally in a headline.

I probably will, just because I'll be looking for random entertainment over the holidays. I've not watched any of their other interviews, etc. but I am a bit nosy. I won't be upset if I don't get around to watching it, though. I kind of want to ignore it just because they get on my nerves, but we'll see.

No one has seen the context of the scenes in the trailer, so how are they determined to be "false"? The BRF do know what could be in it and have their PR teams churning a negative narrative hard and fast while they hold their breath hoping it won't be as bad as it could be. IMHO, if they weren't worried, they would be completely ignoring the documentary. The palace dismissed accepted the resignation of Lady Susan Hussey last week over racist behavior to someone outside the royal household. She was the person assigned to teach Meghan the ropes. FWIW, I'm not team H&M or W&K and not sure if I'll watch. I'm a wait for the reviews kind of person on most things and know plenty of the best clips will be dissected online.

No. For a couple who left the RF because they wanted their privacy, why are they doing a tell all and exposing all of the stuff that they had wanted to stay private? Attention whores.

I haven't decided yet. Right now, no, bc I feel like there is no new information really presented - they are rehashing the same ol' shit, maybe throw in a new picture here and there, some footage they collected to seem like new info was collected and now released, but this, on top of Harry's book to be released in Jan, it just seems like one last (sad) attempt to get "their say" which they've been saying for 2-3 years now. Is there anything new? I know they are hoping more people will tune in but honestly, I think they have very few more chances left to pull this crap off, as they really have NO new material, IMO.

I find this kind of fascinating TBH. No one has seen the context of the scenes in the trailer, so how are they determined to be "false" Apparently a couple scenes of papparazi that they are claiming were following Meghan were from other events that did not involve her.

I also agree, this is fascinating bc this whole thing was done in the very recent past. ANY discrepancy will be fact-checked immediately, so I honestly think H&M are setting themselves up big time for major backlash/bad light bc ANYTHING that comes out as untrue, they will be roasted. The Lady Susan Hussey story shocked me - not that I thought Meghan was lying about racist comments, but bc she was so close to the Queen, I wonder if SHE is the one who made the nasty comment about baby skin color, although I would have thought the palace would have kicked her ass to the curb ASAP instead of leaving people guessing who it could have been.

I saw a comparison of some of the events on IG, and one was supposedly from a Harry Potter premier?!?!?! ETA: I will also say H&M are getting heat for the release of this trailer (or maybe release of the Invictus Games commercial) that happened right as the Wales were here in Boston for the Earthshot Award.

That is the assumption based on the trailer. No one has actually seen the documentary to have full context. And for it to be false, wouldn't that mean no paparazzi followed Meghan?

Yeah I read a clip about it and apparently some of the photos they are using in the promos are from when Harry was with Chelsea, and they just cropped her out of it. I also saw an article, written by an English reporter that's name I can't recall, that called out Meghan and Harry for not telling the truth about Paps chasing them when they were on their tour. I guess this reporter was among the 3 (handpicked and approved. by them) reporters that was assigned to cover their trip and he was with them throughout. Anyway, he claims he was there where a certain photo was shot that is used in the promos and calls BS on that it was pap chasing them. (Edited to add link to article I saw: pagesix.com/2022/12/05/prince-harry-meghan-markle-accused-of-faking-press-hounding/ ) No, I dont plan on watching it and short of a huge snowstorm coning to my house and making to where I can't leave and run out of other things to watch, I wont watch it. I will read about it / watch in the press though.

I wasn't shocked by the story, just to find out this was the person tasked to show Meghan the ways of the firm.

I'll probably watch just because everyone will be talking about it and I want to see it for myself.
As others have said, I can't imagine that they are going to have many more stories to tell, and I think even the people who really like them are going to get bored w/ them eventually.
I tend to think they will do anything to stay in the spotlight. I can just see them on Dancing With the Stars someday.

What a mess - I will own that I am both anti-royal and acknowledge the over the top racism Meghan experienced. I don't believe in a monarchy - the entire notion one is supposed to control vast amounts of wealth based on their birth is the antithesis of my beliefs. I was pro Meghan for a long time as I truly saw the overt racism. But they have so embraced the pseudo "reporting" which is really just editing to pretend something is true when everyone knows it's not. I get it - they need the money and I hope that at the end of the day Harry can live with his decisions. They'll never find peace and happiness on this path.

I will as I do like a train wreck every once in awhile. lol I'm not a royals fan and only get what tidbits are aired on national news from time to time, so I could be naive to a lot. I visted several museums when in England and the curators were not impressed that most Americans were not in awe over their crowns, gems, diamonds and gold. That was a put off to me when they huffed away when we just said, they are nice and not oh my gosh expressions. I'm on the side that believe Megan has totally brainwashed Harry.

Yesterday and up until I read this thread I was thinking "Hell No!" but after reading this thread I think I might. One reason is that everyone will be talking about it online and if I haven't watched it it's harder to join in on that conversation if I decide I want to.
I was neutral on the opinion on Harry and Megan until the Oprah interview. Up until then I couldn't tell who was telling the truth. After watching that interview and reading all of the opinion pieces afterwards (about all of the lies Megan told) I turned against them-especially against Megan. Here's my theory. I think Megan is a controlling narcissist. I think less and less of them as time has gone by since their exit from the royal family based on their actions.

I don’t know if I’ll watch or not. I’m sure that a lot of clips will be shown and talked about so it will be easy to get information without actually watching.
I’m not pro or anti royals. It’s not a lifestyle I could live, or would want to. I had a great deal of sympathy for Harry and for Meghan for a while; I could see the racism and absolutely abhor that. Now it seems they want to use their positions even though they’ve also walked away from what that involves.

Here is some of what I saw on IG comparing what Netflix used vs where the image came from: Yep, it's happening again. Only this time it isn't Oprah and Megan. It's Netflix and Megan (and maybe Harry?). That's 4 lies already and it's just starting.

I'll watch it. I think Harry & Meghan should speak their truth and if they want to make money off that, more power to them. The monarchy is outdated and irrelevant so if it gets burned to the ground in the process so be it.

Honestly, what were they supposed to do? If they kept her on, they are *obviously* racists and that proves (in some peoples mind) that everything Meghan said was true. But since they let her go, it must prove she was racist to Meghan since she was the one to show her the ropes. They are in a no-win situation.

I’m a bit tired of the two of them moaning and groaning about all the injustice showered upon them and how tough being a royal is. Pretty sure they are people worse off than them who do a lot less bitching.

I was pretty neutral about them both until the Oprah interview. Some things really pinged my radar, especially about her. For two people who say they just want to be left alone, they sure do seek out the attention! I can't see how this documentary is going to make them look any better, especially because it's already proving to not be 100% authentic.
