I guess I have a different take on this. The media has hounded the Royal family to the point of death in the past. Harry's mother Diana, for example. Harry & Meghan knew their story would be told by the press no matter what they did.... whether they stayed silent (as many think they should) or whether they spoke out. Harry did not choose to be a Royal, but he grew up under the eyes of the media for every little thing he did and saw what happened to his mother as a young boy. That would be a difficult life to live in my book. Very little privacy. Harry & Meghan chose to tell their story themselves to have some control over the information that would have been told by strangers if they didn't. I can't fault them for that. If you don't want to watch them or read their stories, then simply don't do it. It costs you nothing to choose to watch something else. I think it was a pretty gutsy thing for them to do knowing the criticism they were going to get regardless.
