Howard Stern is sick of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle after their new Netflix documentary series “Harry & Meghan” came out. On Dec. 8, the streamer showed the first three episodes of the show. On Dec. 15, the next three episodes came out.
It’s been painful,
Stern said of watching the series.
I don’t — I wouldn’t stay with it, but my wife wants to watch it, so, you know, we have shows we watch, but they come off like such whiny bitches. I gotta tell you man, I just don’t get it.
I get Prince Harry being pissed off at the monarchy for his mother,
he continued.
They treated her like shit…I feel bad for Prince Harry losing his mother and all that. So you got my empathy there. But Jesus Christ, when those two start whining about ‘wah wah wah, and they don’t like me’ and she wants to be beloved in this country…it’s just very weird to watch two people who keep screaming, ‘We wanted our privacy, we wanted the press to leave us alone.’ And then what is their special that they put out on Netflix — showing you them and their kids and their life. It’s like the Kardashians except boring. You know what I mean?
Stern didn’t understand what Harry and Meghan wanted from their six-part Netflix show, so he asked,
Where do you go with this? Is this your career…talking about how humiliated you were being part of, I don’t know, living in a castle — and it’s hard to relate to. It’s like, it looks pretty terrific to me. If it was me, I never had to worry about money and never had to worry about work.
Howard Stern told his listeners that he thought Harry would leave Meghan one day.
I think he’s eventually not gonna dig her. I’m telling you.
Since its first episode on Netflix, “Harry & Meghan” has been talked about all over the world. BBC journalists have been actively arguing against things the couple says in the series, like their claim that an interview they did with the BBC about their engagement in 2017 was “orchestrated” and “rehearsed” by the network. People in the British media have also pushed back on the couple’s claim that they wanted to “destroy” Meghan.
A critic said in his review of “Harry & Meghan” that the show is mostly about the couple going over old news. He added,
There’s an air of duty about the entire enterprise of ‘Harry & Meghan,’ as if they’re honor-bound to keep reciting their personal story until we eventually lose interest.
