These included their therapy session, a segment titled “Pursued by Paps Only They Can See,” and a moment when they learned about North's evidence.

Social media has erupted with reactions from royal fans who feel deceived.

Sharon Osbourne didn't hold back during her appearance on Piers Morgan's show.

She slammed the series as a “whine fest,” criticizing Meghan's comments about her experiences with the royal family.

Osbourne urged Harry and Meghan to acknowledge their privilege and move on, suggesting that they should focus on their happiness rather than dwelling on past grievances.

Piers Morgan, a long-time critic of , also weighed in, tweeting about the series with disdain.
