Harry and Meghan just released their Netflix documentary, Harry & Meghan. It’s all about them whining again. But now they’re doing so in dramatic fashion.
Harry and Meghan release Netflix documentary
Their documentary features Meghan asking, ‘Doesn’t it make more sense to hear our story from us?’ It does, of course. But they’ve been peddling their story over and over again. So we have.
They told their story in that Oprah interview. They told it again in her podcast. They are telling it again in their docuseries. They’re going to tell it again in his memoir. And they’re going to tell it yet again in hers.
That’s why they seem more interested in making money than sense.
Why keep telling their story?
They love the sound of Ka-Ching! And that sound answers Meghan’s incredulous question. Because it’s drowning out everything they say.
But Harry and Meghan’s grifting knows no bounds. Only this explains why they plagiarized Nelson Mandela to tell their story. Indeed, a family member accused them of stealing his words to make money for themselves.
Yet, people buy their story every time Harry and Meghan reformat and retell it. That might be the most interesting thing afoot. Because theirs might end up being the greatest story ever sold.
Harry’s memoir: teaser bombshells
His publisher plans to release Harry’s memoir on January 10. But they are dropping teaser bombshells to whet appetites. And it would appear too high-minded of me to completely ignore them. So here’s my take on two:
- Harry claims William and Kate told him to wear that infamous Nazi costume. Yes, pussywhipped Harry is now outing himself as a hapless dupe too. He abandoned royal duties in England to live like a celebrity grifter in America. That was bad enough. Now, he’s destroying his reputation as a war hero. Because Harry brags about the number of people he killed in combat. But no bonafide war hero brags about that. There’s also the irony inherent in Harry doing so. After all, Harry presents himself as a zealous protector of his family. Yet vanity has him inviting jihad against them. That is, by dismissing the 25 Taliban he claims he killed as nothing more than pieces on a chess board. He implies he had a duty to knock them off.
This is not how we behave in the Army; it’s not how we think. He has badly let the side down. We don’t do notches on the rifle butt. … I see only disappointment and misery in his pursuit of riches he does not need and his rejection of family and comradely love that he badly needs.

- Harry claims William knocked him down during an argument about Meghan. Reportedly, William called her “difficult,” “rude,” and “abrasive.” But this makes William look heroic and sympathetic. After all, he was attempting to knock sense into lovesick and delusional Harry. Of course, now everyone knows William was right about Meghan. Harry also claims William screamed at him during Megxit negotiations. But he’s lucky that’s all William did.
They told us their story the first time
As Maya Angelou might say, Harry and Meghan told their story in that first Oprah interview. And it was all about spilling family secrets and airing dirty laundry.
Since then, they’ve only embellished it with petty gossip and prodigious lies. And all that to monetize their rift with the British royal family.
That has them projecting and gaslighting in ways that would make even Donald Trump blush. For example, Harry is promoting the memoir, in which he betrays his family, by pleading that:
I would like to get my father back; I would like to have my brother back.
(The Independent, January 2, 2023)
Sure, and Trump incited the January 6 insurrection because he wanted to get his presidency back. This prodigal son even mocks Charles for pleading, in the wake of his father Philip’s death, “Please boys, don’t make my final years a misery.”
That Harry revealed this is stunning in its wantonness and hypocrisy. After all, Harry’s behavior makes clear he’s hell-bent on giving his father’s plea the middle finger.
Harry and Meghan are grifters doing what grifters do
They tried to manipulate the late queen during their Megxit negotiations. Harry and Meghan’s Oprah interview betrayed this fact. But it also presaged how bashing the royal family would fuel their grift overseas.
They insist they wanted to “remain in” the royal family. But they conditioned that on being able to trade on their royal ties – while living in America.
In other words, they wanted to have their royal cake and eat it too. That forced the queen to ban them from trademarking the lucrative “Sussex Royal” brand. Reports are that they planned to merchandise all kinds of things on a commercial website. They had already spent “tens of thousands” to build it and were just lying in wait to launch it.
That is why financial resentment and personal jealousy consumed Harry and Meghan. And it became untenable for them to live as third or fourth-tier royals in England. So they cooked up a scheme to live like royals in America.
The grift’s the thing that would fund their scheme. The motive, however, was their impudent wish to escape the constraints of royal protocols.
They wanted no part of genuflecting to Charles and Camilla, William and Kate, and even baby George. And they wanted no part of depending on The Firm for their daily bread.
Contempt and jealousy
Their docuseries shows Meghan mocking how she curtsied to the queen when they first met. And we see Harry looking on haplessly as she does.
But that scene betrays far more than they realize. Because it also shows Meghan’s contempt for royal protocol. And that she harbored it even before she married into Harry’s family. This contempt made her feel she could “modernize” the British monarchy. And she tried in vain to do so to suit her Instagram image.
Of course, Harry was already simmering with Cainian jealousy. That made him see William as his “archnemesis.” (Imagine that!) It also made him feel like nothing more than a “spare.” So he was all too happy to champion Meghan’s iconoclastic machinations.
But their rift had nothing to do with Buckingham Palace failing to protect them from the media. Yes, the very media they’ve been courting since their rift to promote their grift.
Harry and Meghan claim they chose self-exile to be part of a family, not an institution. But this is as oxymoronic as it is disingenuous. After all, even schoolchildren know the royal family itself is the institution.
Yet Harry is “shocked, shocked” that Charles and William won’t reconcile.
But I presaged his alienation and looming regret in the blog post, “Megxit Deal Gets Queen’s Seal,” on January 10, 2020. I also previewed and preempted everything in Spare in another post on October 27, 2022.
So spare yourself the outrage and cost. Don’t buy their royal grift. No one should pay attention to anything Meghan and Harry say, let alone buy anything they sell. People who do are no better than the suckers who still listen to Trump and bankroll his MAGA grift.
I hope they’ve already banked enough money to keep them in the style they now enjoy. Because Harry and Meghan are alienating everyone with the release of this Netflix documentary, including military veterans and Black people (especially in Africa).
Given that, it’s only a matter of time before they become international pariahs. Then, Harry and Meghan won’t be able to stand each other, let alone appeal to millions to bankroll their Megxit grift.
