Watch: Harry and Meghan’s latest cringe-fest

Quick, nurse, pass the sick bag! The wokest couple in all the West is at it again. Harry and Meghan have today released another trailer ahead of their Netflix series, before its release on Thursday. The streaming giant is keen to recuperate the many millions it spent on hiring the dilettante duo back in the heady days of the pandemic, with the Sussexes now required to sing for their proverbial supper in the upcoming tell-all documentary.

The trailer for this ‘global event’ bears all the hallmarks of Harry and Meghan’s ‘brand’: slick shots, moody music, tear-stained cheeks and Hollywood jargon more hackneyed than a Hallmark movie. In one glorious snippet, Harry – that embodiment of English aristocracy – bemoans how ‘there’s a hierarchy of the family’. In the royals? Who knew!

In another, a talking head says with a straight face that ‘there was a war against Meghan’ as another intones ‘it’s about hatred, it’s about race’, played over footage of cheering British crowds applauding the couple on their wedding day.
