It’s been over 24 hours since Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s docuseries dropped on Netflix, but the royals have been entirely silent on the first three episodes. And apparently, that’s fully intentional!
“I’ve spoken to senior palace aides who said they are reluctant to comment unless there is anything damaging, untrue or defamatory,” royal expert Katie Nicholl told Entertainment Tonight. “In this docuseries, they really don’t want to be drawn into it for the simple fact that they don’t want to give an already much-hyped docuseries even more oxygen or publicity.”
A senior palace aide also confirmed to Nicholl that “it’s a case of keep calm and carry on, and let’s not get too distracted by this.” And when it comes to whether or not the royals are gonna watch, that’d be a hard pass.

“My understanding is that the royals, certainly the King and the Queen Consort will not be watching the docuseries,” Nicholl explained. “And William and Kate, well, my understanding again, was that they were on the school run today—they weren’t at home when the docuseries aired. It was business as usual, family first, and I don’t believe they will be watching it, no.”
All that said, sources at the palace did push back against the docuseries’ disclaimer, which said “This is a first-hand account of Harry & Meghan’s story, told with never before seen person archive. All interviews were completed by August 2022. Members of the Royal family declined to comment on the content within this series.”
Per The Telegraph, “Royal sources insisted that neither Buckingham Palace, Kensington Palace nor any member of the Royal family had been approached for comment or given advance sight of any part of the series.”
