Harry and Meghan suffered a new blow tonight after a German documentary accused the couple of hypocrisy while enjoying an 'elitist' lifestyle in the United States. The programme entitled 'Harry: The Lost Prince' includes damning criticism of the couple's attempts to build a new life for themselves as charity activists and campaigners since leaving the Royal family.
Femail was given a preview of the documentary before it was screened to an audience of millions in Germany tonight. The programme takes a dig at the couple by detailing how their much-publicised visits to poverty-stricken countries such as Nigeria and Colombia sits uneasily with Meghan's love of expensive designer clothes.
One stinging voice in the documentary is former soldier Ben McBean, who lost his left arm and had his right leg amputated above the knee after being seriously injured by a landmine blast in Afghanistan in 2008. McBean who shared a flight home from Afghanistan with Harry did not hold back in criticising the prince over his revelations about his family in his bombshell memoir Spare and in his Netflix show.
The veteran soldier says: 'I just thought, with him kind of whinging about his family and he was saying something about his brother pushing him over or something like that, I was just like, "Mate, just leave it out". 'You and your brother had a little fisticuffs…but family's family, you know.
