Tracy Grimshaw has made a surprise appearance in Harry & Meghan’s new Netflix documentary.

Clips of the former A Current Affair host, 62,  are used in the third episode of the explosive new docuseries, which has been branded a ‘sly and insidious assault’ on Harry’s family and the institution of the Crown.

Her voice is heard speaking over a montage of tweets and front pages of British and American tabloids.

‘Some of the bride’s family don’t know yet if they’ll be invited to Windsor Castle, including Meghan’s half-sister, Samantha Markle, who’s made plenty of her own headlines in the leadup to the the Royal Wedding,’ she says. 

Following the clip, Meghan claims the media searched for anyone remotely close to her to write ‘salacious’ stories.

The sound bite of Grimshaw was taken from an episode of A Current Affair which aired in February 2018 – three months before Harry and Meghan tied the knot.

Grimshaw sat down for an exclusive interview with Meghan’s half-sister Samantha Markle in it. 

It comes amid claims Buckingham Palace fears that ‘next week (episodes) will be poison’ after the first three of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex‘s Netflix series aired on Thursday.

Royal insiders were left particularly upset by the criticism of the late Queen Elizabeth and her Commonwealth legacy, which was dismissed as ‘Empire 2.0’.

The first three episodes of the programme – dubbed ‘Megflix’ by critics and part of a multi-million-dollar deal with the streaming giant – were released yesterday.

The Duchess of Sussex described them as an account of the couple’s ‘love story’, but critics said they were a ‘sly and insidious assault’ on Harry’s family and the institution of the Crown.

One royal source told The Times that ‘next week will be poison’, after the first three episodes focused on the British press and Meghan’s treatment by the media before their engagement, as well as the ‘unconscious bias’ surrounding race.

There were calls for the Sussexes to give up their titles if they were ‘so ashamed and disappointed’ about their links to the Royal Family, while the royals themselves were said to be ‘in a state of sadness’ following the release. 

Many associated with the Royal Household were also deeply upset at the depth of the couple’s ‘shameful and cowardly’ betrayal of the late Queen.

It emerged that the couple had started filming themselves and giving interviews as far back as March 2020, and continued until August this year, just weeks before the Queen’s death.

A source said: ‘This was all being filmed while both the Duke of Edinburgh and the Queen – Harry’s grandparents – were suffering from serious ill-health and in the last few months of their lives.

‘They even came over to mark Her Majesty’s Jubilee while colluding with the filmmakers, without telling her what they were doing.

‘That’s shameful and cowardly. There are a lot of people who are glad the late Queen is not here to see it.’

Another insider added: ‘It looks as if they want to bring down the monarchy. What else could they hope to achieve by this? It was a sly and insidious attack from start to finish.’

A former royal adviser said that the series is an attack on the Queen’s legacy, as opposed to the late monarch herself.  

A row also broke out between Buckingham Palace and Netflix as to whether the royals were given a right of reply against accusations in the documentary.

The first episode of the six-part series started with a disclaimer which stated that: ‘Members of the Royal Family declined to comment on the content within this series.’ But a senior palace source insisted that no one was contacted.
