Prince Harry and Meghan Markle take us behind the headlines in their new documentary

In Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s eye-opening new ITV documentary, which aired in Australia just last night, the royal pair made the most of the opportunity to take viewers behind the headlines by addressing a number of false allegations and inaccuracies recently reported by British tabloid press.

was filmed throughout the course of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s recent African royal tour and hosted by the Duke of Sussex’s friend, journalist and novelist, Tom Bradby. During the documentary, the journalist highlighted the fact that the pair were eager to turn the relentless media attention they’ve garnered into a positive force for change.

“I went intending to make a documentary that was always going to be about their work in Africa and then a little bit about where they are at in life and I knew that everything wasn’t entirely rosy behind the scenes—that’s true,” Bradby revealed on Good Morning America, per E! News.

“But, all the same, I sort of had intended to turn up probably doing a more conventional journalistic job maybe. I told them beforehand I was going to have to put some pretty pointed questions, but I think the reality I’d found was just a couple that just seemed a bit bruised and vulnerable,” he shared. “I think with mental health and all the rest of it, you have to be very careful what words you use, but that was the story I found and it seemed the right journalistic thing to do to try and tell that story as empathetically as I could.”

Bradby also added that while travelling with Prince Harry, the pair had a series of deep discussions. “After those, I said, ‘Well, listen, let’s just go out and tell the truth as you see it and what happens happens’.”

Read on for the documentary’s key learnings and a comprehensive guide to the truth behind recent headlines, as Prince Harry and Markle work to separate fact from fiction in a series of interviews that were no doubt royal protocol-breaking. 

Prince Harry confirmed his relationship with Prince William has changed
In an interview with Prince Harry, Bradby took it upon himself to address rumours of a rift between Prince Harry and his brother, Prince William. When the journalist asked the royal to comment on said reports, Prince Harry shared their relationship has definitely changed. 

“Part of this role and part of this job and this family, being under the pressure that it’s under, inevitably stuff happens,” he told Bradby. “But we’re brothers, we’ll always be brothers. We’re certainly on different paths at the moment, but I will always be there for him, and as I know, he’ll always be there for me. 

“We don’t see each other as much as we used to because we’re so busy, but you know, I love him dearly, and the majority of the stuff is… well the majority of stuff is created out of nothing,” he added. “But, you know, as brothers you have good days, you have bad days.”

Prince Harry addressed whether or not he and his family would move to Africa
A number of recent reports have suggested that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, together with their son, Archie, have plans to move to Africa in the near future. When given the chance, the host of the documentary asked Prince Harry whether or not those rumours were true. 

“Is this a part of a future, do you think?” Bradby quizzed the Duke of Sussex on the possibility of moving to Africa. “Do you intend to spend more time here, even live here perhaps for a while?”

“I don’t know where we could live in Africa at the moment,” Prince Harry responded. “I’ve just come from Cape Town, that would be an amazing place for us to be able to base ourselves, of course it would. But with all the problems that are going on there, I just don’t see how we’d be able to really make as much difference as we’d want to without the issues and the judgement of how we would be with those surrounding,” he added. Before confirming: “The rest of our lives, especially our life’s work, will be predominantly focused on Africa, on conservation.”

Prince Harry spoke passionately about his stance on climate change
During the royal tour of Africa, Prince Harry visited Botswana for the Queen’s Commonwealth Canopy Trust, and touched on the current state of affairs, hot off the heels of the launch of his new travel initiative, Travalyst.

“It’s a race against time, and one which we are losing, everyone knows it, there’s no excuse for not knowing that,” Prince Harry told Bradby, sharing he feels it’s not possible to deny the science behind the escalation of the issue. “I don’t understand how anyone in this world, whoever you are, you, us, children, leaders, whoever it is; no one can deny science. Otherwise we live in a very very troubling world,” he added.

Meghan Markle addressed the truth behind recent scrutiny from British tabloid press
During the documentary, Markle revealed she was warned by friends that the British press would inevitably work to tear her down. 

“When I first met my now-husband, my friends were really happy because I was so happy, but my British friends said to me ‘I’m sure he’s great, but you shouldn’t do it, because the British tabloids will destroy your life’,” she told Bradby.

“I never thought that this would be easy, but I thought it would be fair. And that’s the part that’s really hard to reconcile,” said Markle. “When people are saying things that are just untrue and they are being told they’re untrue but they’re allowed to still say them—I don’t know anybody in the world who would feel like that’s okay.”

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry clarified their reasons for breaking royal protocol and addressing recent rumours
Once the documentary aired, a number of outlets questioned the couple’s motives and raised the point that their comments may only serve to fuel the media’s fire and contribute to the vicious cycle they currently find themselves at the centre of.

However, if you happened to tune into the entire 60-minute documentary, you’d be aware of the fact that Meghan Markle and Prince Harry addressed their reasons for breaking royal protocol and talking openly about their feelings towards recent false reports. 

Confessing she takes “each day as it comes”, Markle admitted: “I have said for a long time to H, that’s what I call him, ‘It’s not enough to just survive something. That’s not the point of life. You have got to thrive. You have got to feel happy.’ 

“I really tried to adopt this British sensibility of a ‘stiff upper lip’. I really tried, but I think that what that does internally is probably really damaging,” she continued, adding she would understand the scrutiny if it were fair. And given that the royal family are quite passionate about mental health, it makes sense for them to speak up about their own.

Prince Harry also addressed his reason for speaking up about his wife’s “ruthless” treatment. “Part of this job and part of any job, like everybody, means putting on a brave face and turning a cheek to a lot of the stuff… [but] for me and for my wife, of course, there’s a lot of stuff that hurts—especially when the majority of it is untrue,” the duke confessed.

“All we need to do is focus on being real, focus on being the people we are and standing up for what we believe in,” he said. Adding: “I will not be bullied into carrying [on] a game that killed my mum.”
