The new ITV documentary where Prince Harry and Meghan Markle bared their souls is receiving backlash from the royal experts. The couple's attack on the British media even has the Queen concerned. In fact, royal commentator Penny Junor called it a 'big mistake.'

The royal couple talked about their struggles, how being in the spotlight, and the unjust scrutiny they are subjected to is getting difficult for them. The documentary called Meghan and Harry: An African Journey was Meghan's first on-screen interview since giving birth to baby Archie. During the interview, we see the former Suits actress talk about how vulnerable she was during her pregnancy while holding back her tears.

But, Mr Dampier was clearly not impressed. He said, "I'm frankly astonished that Meghan is surprised by scrutiny from the tabloids and that she claims there aren't any tabloids in the US. She has been an actress for many years and must've had all sorts of publicity, good and bad. I can't believe she would be that naive."

He further added, "Also, surely Harry, who is so desperate to protect her, would have warned her right from the start what she was letting herself in for. And they both said as much in their engagement interview. I can honestly say that most tabloid royal reporters and editors I know wanted Meghan to succeed and saw her as a breath of fresh air."

"They have brought the bad press on themselves by lecturing people about climate change while using private jets themselves, telling the public - who paid for their home renovations - that they couldn't see pictures of Archie's christening, or know the names of his godparents, or even their dog! British people don't like hypocrisy."

Also, when the interviewer quizzed Harry about the rift with his brother, he basically confirmed the rumor. In fact, royal commentator, Penny Junor said, "It's beginning to sound like a bit of a whinge. That's not the Harry that we know and love."

Meghan also happened to mention how her friends had warned her against marrying Prince Harry as the tabloid scrutiny would "destroy her life". She even disclosed that not a lot of people have asked her if she is okay. She then admitted that she is struggling with her new role as a public figure.
