In total, the duke and duchess’s fly-on-the-wall show will offer 360 minutes of “unprecedented truths” about life in the Royal family.
This means Harry and Meghan are making a whopping £244k per minute on the show – which has so far seen jibes against Princess Catherine, Prince William and the King.
Palace insiders blasted the show today, claiming the Royal Family were not asked to comment prior to its release.
This is despite the series opening with the words: “Members of the Royal Family declined to comment on the content within this series”.
It is understood Kensington Palace received an email from a third-party production company via a different, unknown organisation’s email address.
Insiders claim the palace attempted to verify the source of the email with Archewell Productions and Netflix but no one replied – meaning the palace could not respond.
In the show, Meghan claimed she was left reeling by her first meeting with the Princess of Wales.
She said: “Even when Will and Kate came over and I met her for the first time.
“I was in ripped jeans and I was barefoot.
“I’m a hugger I’ve always been a hugger. I didn’t know that could be jarring for a lot of Brits.

The Netflix documentary revealed…
- Meghan Markle’s first meeting with Princess Kate – with the duchess describing it as ‘jarring’
- Meghan and Harry’s first meeting – but fans spotted they had changed their story
- Sweet new photos of Archie and Lilibet with proud dad Harry seen kissing his daughter
- The couple shared their proposal story – which appears to have changed
- Meanwhile, Piers Morgan has blasted Meghan and Harry’s Netflix doc as ‘worse than the Kardashians’
“I guess I started to understand very quickly that the formality out on the outside, carried through on the inside.
“That there is a forward facing way of being then you close the door and you go phew, great we can relax now.
“But that formality continues on both sides and that was surprising to me.”
Meanwhile, in an apparent dig at his dad King Charles’ parenting, Harry claimed he was “brought up” by friends in Africa.
He said: “I’ve got a second family out there. A group of friends that literally brought me up.”
The first three episodes of the six-part show were released today at 8am. The remaining three will be available to watch on December 15.
In the show, Harry said he “sacrificed everything he had” for Meghan when they left royal life behind.
And Harry claimed Meghan “doesn’t have a father” as they dove into the lead up to their royal wedding.
Thomas Markle famously posed in staged paparazzi pictures during the lead up to the wedding. He and his daughter Meghan are now estranged.
The couple – who are rumoured to be making an appearance on a US talk show next week – also revealed never-before-seen clips of Archie riding his bike while his Harry pushed baby Lilibet in a pushchair.
Addressing alleged abuse Meghan faced after joining the Royal family, Harry appeared to take a dig at his brother William.
He said: “So it was almost like a rite of passage, and some of the members of the family were like ‘my wife had to go through that, so why should your girlfriend be treated any differently?
“‘Why should you get special treatment? Why should she be protected?'”
Harry went on to claim men in his family marry women who “fit the mould”.
He said: “I think for so many people in the family, especially the men, there could be a temptation or an urge to marry someone who would fit the mould as opposed to someone you are destined to be with.
“The difference between making a decision with your head or your heart.
“And my mum certainly made most of her decisions, if not all of them, from her heart.
“And I am my mother’s son.”
