ROYAL EXPERT SLAMS NETFLIX Ingrid Seward, a royal expert said that Harry may not have realised but Netflix was careless . So, this weakens the Duke's comment on protecting his family.

I don't imagine Harry would have realised, but Netflix have been careless here as it weakens Harry's comment about protecting his family. This fake picture weakens his point, said Seward to The Sun.

It is understood that no royals had attended the premiere. However, it seems it may have been a stock photo as it appears first under the search results for paparazzi on Alamy - a stock image website.

Harry & Meghan is a six-part docuseries which will be released in two parts:

Volume I (episodes 1-3) on 8 December

Volume II (episodes 4-6) on 15 December
