‘Grow up’: MP hits back at Harry, Meghan

-

A British MP has called for Prince Harry and Meghan Markle to be stripped of their royal titles over their explosive Netflix docuseries.

Tory MP Bob Seely raged about the couple’s new series in an interview with the Daily Mail, asking of Harry: “Why should we allow him to keep his titles i f he hates this country, the monarchy?

“If I had enough time I’d be bringing in a private member’s bill. . . if you want to hate the monarchy, you’re Mr Windsor. Jog on. Grow up.

“I don’t know what’s gone wrong in their lives. I think they’re this pathetic, narcissist­ic, self- i ndulgent pair. They’re dreadful.”

Seely’s comments come after the first three episodes of Harry and Meghan’s tell-all docuseries dropped on Netflix on Thursday.

The series has been immediatel­y controvers­ial, with everyone from the royal family to a BBC journalist hitting back at claims Harry and Meghan made in the show.

Harry & Meghan i s a six- part Netflix series directed by Oscarnomin­ee Liz Garbus. It is the flagship offering in the couple’s multi-year content deal with the streaming giant.

It’s a project that has been in the works for months, with two trailers being released in the past two weeks, both making headlines around the world. Multiple reports suggest Harry and Meghan have been at odds with Netflix bosses in attempts to delay the show, following a chaotic period for the royal f amily, including the Queen’s death in September.

The couple are understood to have wanted to push the series back to 2023 amid backlash over the new series of The Crown, which chronicles the breakdown of Charles and Diana’s marriage. news.com.au
