A British journalist has attacked Prince Harry and his wife Megan Markle, calling them “poisonous rats”, after publishing a new clip from Their controversial ‘Netflix’ documentary series.
In response to the clip, prominent British broadcaster Piers Morgan wrote: “King Charles must strip these two poisonous rats of all remaining titles and ties to the royal family…and he must do it quickly before they destroy the monarchy.”

The couple, who wed in 2018, still hold the title of “Duke and Duchess of Sussex,” but are no longer styled HRH and HRH.
In one of the segments of the documentary series, Harry goes on to say that he wondered what would have happened to them if they hadn’t decided to leave when they did. He described the journey out of the UK as a “journey to freedom”.
Harry said they were happy to lie to protect his brother and were never willing to tell the truth to protect him and Meghan.
Meghan said their security has been “removed” and that “everyone in the world knows where we are”. She also confirmed that she “was not thrown to the wolves, but was fed to the wolves.”
Prince Harry has said the British royal family ruled out the race-related press pursuit of his wife, Megan, would change the course of his life, with the couple launching a scathing attack on the media in the series of documentaries.
Harry drew a comparison between the way the press treated Meghan and the intense media interference suffered by her mother, Princess Diana.
And Princess Diana died in a car crash in Paris in 1997 while trying to escape the pursuit of paparazzi.
Harry, who and Meghan stepped down from their royal duties two years ago, said it was his duty to expose “exploitation and corruption” in the media.
In the first three episodes of the highly anticipated series, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex have revealed a slew of revelations, including Meghan’s recollection of her first death threat, Harry’s account of denying ever meeting Meghan and film footage unpublished by their son Archie.
Harry has stated on the series that he and Meghan “sacrificed everything” and that he was afraid the media would alienate his wife.
He also referred to the “pain and suffering of women married to men within this institution (the royal family),” as he said.
However, the first few episodes contained no shocking matters to the royal family, and the main focus was on how the British tabloids treated them, and how this affected their relationship and ultimately led to their departure from official royal life.
“The truth must be told, no matter how hard I try, no matter how good I am, no matter what I do, they will find a way to destroy me,” Megan said.
Buckingham Palace has said it will not comment on the series. Netflix said members of the royal family have declined to comment on the series, but a royal source has indicated no contact has been made with the palace, a representative of Prince William or other members of the royal family.
