How to watch Harry & Meghan online from anywhere, stream all episodes on Netflix now
The bombshell doc that will definitely put this royal saga to bed
Harry and Meghan, the culture war du jour, has gone nuclear. First teased in 2020, Harry & Meghan is a six-part documentary chronicling one couple’s transition from infinite wealth and influence to mere mega wealth and influence. Of course, there’s a touch more to it than upper-class people with too much time on their hands having a family feud. Press intrusion, race and The Institution are just some of the ingredients that have hyper-charged this long-running saga. Here's how to watch all six episodes of Harry & Meghan online from anywhere.
When: Thursday, December 8 (6 episodes split into volume 1 and volume 2)
Stream: Netflix
Director: Liz Garbus
Only the most blinkered observer, of which there are apparently many, would deny that large swathes of the mainstream British media’s portrayals of the Duchess of Sussex have been remarkably hostile, and one can’t help but wonder if it was about more than just her fondness for the avocado.
You hardly need to have watched The Crown, however, to understand that the one potential downside of being a royal was always going to be the 24/7 press coverage that comes wrapped up inside the otherwise handsomely gilded package.
Since stepping back as senior members of the royal family in January 2020, Harry and Meghan have consistently expressed a desire to tell their side of the story. This Netflix documentary is part of what they were referring to, but something tells us this chapter won't end anytime soon, and not simply because security isn’t going to pay for itself anymore.
Even the trailer caused an uproar, when it transpired that not everything was as it seemed. Pick a side at your peril. The furore has somewhat died down now, but guess what, Harry & Megan season 2 is said to be on the way. Gulp. In the meantime, you can watch all six episode of the first season now.
Here's how and when to watch Harry & Meghan on Netflix wherever you are.

If, for any reason, you can't access your Netflix account where you are, you can use a VPN to get around any geo-blocks that are in your way.
What's more, Netflix libraries aren't the same in all regions, and when travelling abroad you may find that your favorite show disappears because the service will only show what's on offer in your current location rather than what you normally get a home. Again, you can get around this by using a good VPN.
A VPN is a handy piece of software that changes your IP address to match any location you choose and make streaming services like Netflix provide you with whatever TV shows and films you need.
