Harry and Meghan savaged by Vanity Fair - 10 things we learned

Prince Harry and Meghan’s life in the US has been blasted with 10 revelations by Vanity Fair. The magazine has delved into the past five years since they took the step to walk away from the Royal Family and start a new life abroad. Since then Harry has been critical of his life as a royal and been keen to open up about his experiences for interviews and documentaries.
The Sussexes signed major deals with Netflix and Spotify but many have been left asking what they will do to make money once their tales about the Royal Family run out. Especially contentious was Harry’s memoir Spare where he told of William attacking him physically and Meghan left crying after a run-in with the Princess of Wales. The Spotify deal only led to one podcast, called Meghan’s Archetypes where she discussed female stereotypes, before it was cancelled by mutual consent. And here are 10 key moments where the Sussexes were blasted for their behaviour and decision making.
Allegations of bullying by Meghan towards staff, which she strenuously has denied, were brought up again by the magazine. It referred to two unnamed sources and said that a colleague took a leave of absence after working on Archetypes - before leaving altogether from Gimlet.
Others were said to have taken “extended breaks from work to escape scrutiny, exiting their job, or undergoing long-term therapy after working with Meghan”. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex bought their mansion in Montecito in Santa Barbara County back in 2020, after announcing they would step down from official royal duties. But it doesn’t appear as though they have won over all the residents with one local saying that they are known as "the prince and the starlet".
