Part 1 of "Harry & Meghan" is now available on Netflix, and the Royal Family is breathing a "sigh of relief".

So far, so-so" After the dramatic buildup to the release of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex's highly anticipated six-part Netflix documentary Harry & Meghan, the royal family is breathing a huge sigh of relief after the first three parts were released two days ago. So far, the series seems to be more about the media than a hit about the royal family. (But there is still time - we are only halfway through the series.)

Edward Coram-James says that the series' teaser and trailer "seem to have been misleading" and that the show's bark seems worse than its bite (at least so far) for the royal family. Coram-James, an expert on reputation and crisis management, says that while the show's promotional materials seemed to attack the royal family directly, so far, "I am more concerned about the criticism of the media and press highlighted throughout the episode than the overt criticism of the royal family."

"The picture of an enraged Princess of Wales (Diana, Princess of Wales) on a Netflix ad promises viewers a high-level whistle-blowing attack on the royal family by the Duke and Duchess of Sussex," he tells the Express. The intentional smoke-and-mirrors ad was a success, sparking international hype and boosting the streaming platform's numbers in what has been a very bad year for it due to declining subscriber numbers, revenue, and value." In reality, however, the series appears to be more of a hit against the media than against the royal family.

Collum-James also notes that "Harry & Meghan" was designed to "draw a clear distinction" between the "cold and distant" institution of the monarchy and the "light and relatable Harry and Meghan," and according to experts, the series is "a master stroke by the Sussexes" They also reported that.

"Individuals seldom have a say in or direct a biopic of their own lives," he says. In the normal course of events, "journalists and filmmakers try to be as objective as possible, giving a rounded overview, interviewing multiple sources on both sides of the argument, and asking tough questions of their subjects. In this series, however, I take an informative but very two-dimensional view of the world through the eyes of a Sussexite. I would be overjoyed if one of my clients could have a multi-hour Netflix series about their lives that promised to take their words at face value and with zero scrutiny."

Nevertheless, Harry and Meghan will not change public opinion because the opinions many people have about the Sussexes are already solidified, says Coram-James: "The public already knows a lot about Meghan and Harry, and most people already The public already knows a lot about Meghan and Harry, and most people have already formed their opinions. The public already knows a lot about Meghan and Harry, and most people have already formed an opinion. Once an impression has been formed, it is very difficult to change that impression."

The Sussex couple's story has been slowly building over the past five years, he says, and most people's opinions are already set. Harry & Meghan are unlikely to sway anyone to the other side.

"People who love the royal family will find plenty of reasons to dislike the Duke and Duchess of Sussex even more in this documentary."

"Those who are fans of the Duke and Duchess will walk away further entrenched in the view that the royal family is a timeless, formal, colonial relic that needs to go, and that Meghan and Harry are victims of an ongoing harassment campaign.
