Good Morning Britain hosts landed themselves in hot water with viewers due to their 'extensive coverage' of Prince Harry and Meghan's new Netflix series, which came out today (Dec 8). During the show, people watching from home took to social media to complain at 'how much' hosts Susanna Reid and Ben Shephard were 'going on about it'.
Although the highly-anticipated docuseries did not go live on Netflix until 8am this morning, it was mentioned on the ITV breakfast programme throughout - including before and after the episodes launched. Susanna and Ben regularly checked in with their correspondent Noel Phillips in the US bout the six-part series, while ITV's royal editor Chris Ship was among those with them in the studio.
When the documentary finally aired on the popular streaming platform, Susanna and Ben were quick to give viewers a look at the opening episode. Highlighting a statement given at the very start of the first instalment, Susanna read out: "The opening frames of the Harry and Meghan documentary are some quotes and information saying it is a first hand account, including never before seen personal archives and all interviews were completed by August 2022."
