The first three episodes of the highly anticipated Harry and Meghan docuseries were released today on the Netflix platform
, with statements and revelations from the Sussexes in great prominence in the British media, all concentrated in waiting for a possible reaction from Buckingham Palace.
But, as the BBC points out,
for now the royal family has chosen a low profile to avoid controversy
.
In the first three episodes, the Duke of Sussex claims that he "sacrificed everything" for his wife Meghan, referring to the breakup with the Windsors and the move to the US, and the same, he underlines, did his wife for him.
Harry and Meghan talk without filters about their conflicted relationship with the royals, the war with the media and racism.
Precisely with respect to this very delicate issue in the relations between the Sussexes and the Windsors, Harry expresses himself as follows:
"There is an enormous level of unconscious prejudice" in the royal family.
And then he adds, "It's really nobody's fault. But once it's been pointed out or identified within you, you have to fix it."
Meghan instead talks about her experience with royalty, in particular the formality that "remains" even when you are not in public.
There are not only criticisms and accusations
but also some mea culpas, such as the one made by Harry for wearing a Nazi costume in his youth:
"one of the biggest mistakes of my life", said the prince.
