Harry and Meghan Netflix documentary: King Charles puts on brave face at royal outing as he weathers series fallout

THE first three episodes of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex's highly controversial documentary have aired on Netflix with fans claiming they've uncovered inconsistencies in the story behind how the couple met.

The couple's docuseries, titled Harry and Meghan, dives into the pair's "love story" as well as their feud with the Royal Family.

During one of the episodes Harry details how the couple first hooked up.

Back in 2017 Harry told the BBC: "It was definitely a set-up — it was a blind date. It was a blind date for sure.”

But in one of the episodes released today, Harry claimed that "Meghan and I met over Instagram."

  • 'I don’t know what to say anymore'

    Footage of the couple introducing son Archie to the media then plays with Harry’s voice saying: “My job is to keep my family safe. By the nature of being born into this position and with everything else that comes with it and the level of hate that is being stirred up in the last three years especially against my wife, and my son, I’m generally concerned for the safety of my family.”

    Meghan can then be seen again, towel wrapped around her hair, saying: “I just really want to get to the other side of all of this.”

    There is a pause where she sits silently and then she appears emotional and says: “I don’t know what to say anymore.”

    Meghan said: "I wore a lot of muted tones... I also wore it so I could just blend in."

    And she added: "I'm not trying to stand out here. I don't want to embarrass the family."

    However, there are a number of pictures taken on royal occasions showing that Meghan has routinely worn bright colours including red, green and yellow.

    “His breathing suggests stress, his verbal fillers of ‘Um…’ signal confusion. He rolls his eyes and performs a tongue-poke which all suggest adrenaline caused by stress. 

    “As the piano trills loudly he says ‘What happened?’ like a survivor crawling out of a wreck.” 

  • Prince Harry backtracks
