The Duke and Duchess of Sussex‘s new docu-series episodes were released today and the pair can be seen cuddling on the couch with their dog Pula.

Meghan revealed they saw the interview at the same time as the rest of the world but she was surprised by the public reaction. 

She said: ‘We didn’t see it until the world saw it. It was interesting. 

‘I thought me being very open about the depression I experienced and just how extreme that became, I thought that would be the biggest take away. But it was entirely eclipsed by the conversation surrounding race.’

The first three episodes of Harry & Meghan – part of the Sussexes’ multi-million-dollar deal with Netflix – were streamed last week, with the final three hour-long episodes streaming from today.

The Sussexes’ six-part show – which forms part of their multimillion-pound deal with Netflix – has become the streaming giant’s most-watched documentary in a premier week, debuting with 81.55 million hours viewed. 

The initial tranche covered the couple’s courtship and romance, but many were left unhappy about the programme’s depiction of the late Queen’s Commonwealth with some saying it seemed as if the couple want to ‘bring down the monarchy’.

The duke also said members of his family questioned why Meghan needed more protection from the media than their wives had been given, but that they failed to grasp the ‘race element’. 

In one clip, Meghan’s British privacy lawyer Jenny Afia insisted she had seen evidence of the conspiracy against the Duchess before Lucy Fraser – real name Lucy Meadmore – a former PR manager who was a mystery figure until a week ago, says ‘Meg became this scapegoat for the Palace’. 

The Duchess herself also suggested she was made a scapegoat, adding: ‘You would see it play out. A story about someone in the family would pop up for a minute, and they’d go: ‘We’ve got to make that go away’.
