The Duke and Duchess of Sussex make headlines every day, but it’s very rarely that they were able to directly respond to them and create their own narrative.
During their recent 10-day tour of South Africa, Malawi, Angola and Botswana Prince Harry and Meghan Markle were followed by the prince’s friend and ITV reporter Tom Bradby for documentary, Harry & Meghan: An African Journey.
Harry & Meghan: An African Journey will air in Australia on Tuesday night. Post continues below video.
The biggest headline to come from the documentary, which aired in the UK on Sunday night, was Prince Harry’s acknowledgement of the persistent rumours that he and older brother Prince William had fallen out.
Asked how much of the speculation was true, Harry laughed before saying: “Part of this role, part of this job and this family being under the pressure it is under, inevitably stuff happens.
“But look, we are brothers, we will always be brothers. We are certainly on different paths at the moment but I will always be there for him and, as I know, he will always be there for me.”

To be fair, if Harry & Meghan didn’t push away their royal responsibilities and traditions so much, they’d likely have a better time.
I would have thought the documentary would have focused on their charitable works in Africa, but, instead, it became a whingefest on how hard they are done by. They had received very favourable press during their visit, but decided to squander that goodwill and attack the press.
The suffering and disadvantage witnessed first-hand in Africa clearly wasn't seen as a priority over the suffering and disadvantage perceived by two very privileged people.
...And drag their family members into their drama. I'm sure William and the rest of the family is thrilled to have Harry airing their business to the world in an attempt to make himself seem more sympathetic to an increasingly critical public.
