Dan Walker has divided users on Twitter with his advice to people surrounding Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s Netflix series, Harry & Meghan. The Channel 5 presenter urged users who say they “don’t care” about the Duke and Duchess of Sussex not to bother watching the series at all.

His tweet comes after Harry & Meghan was released on UK Netflix on Thursday morning.

He wrote: “Here’s an idea… if you are one of those people telling everyone you ‘don’t care about Harry and Meghan’ then don’t post about them and don’t watch them on Netflix.”

Hundreds of users have since taken to the comments to share their thoughts.

Neil raged: “It’s somewhat akin to rubbernecking and stopping to observe a tragedy, people won’t be able to help themselves. I won’t watch because it lines their pockets and disrespects their family.” 

While Alun added: “When a lot of people in the country are struggling seeing two married millionaires going on about how hard their lives are and how unfairly they have been treated is a bit of a p**s take.”

To which Tracey responded: “Ah, bless. Like the man said, you don’t have to read or watch their stuff, do you? If there’s more important things going on, focus on those things, no one’s forcing you to go on about them, yet here you are.”

Julie wrote: “I know the news and papers are going to be full of it so I’m now watching it to form my own opinion. 10 minutes in and I’m laughing at them. So over the top, dramatic and staged like a Hollywood blockbuster.”

And Craig told Dan: “Here’s another idea…people like you shouldn’t tweet and encourage their activity here and respect their request for privacy.” 

It comes after former BBC Breakfast star Dan defended Harry and Meghan with a cryptic tweet after the trailer was released.

He shared a clip from the teaser in which Prince Harry said: “There’s a hierarchy of the family, you know, there’s leaking, but there’s also planting of stories. It’s a dirty game.

“The pain and suffering of women marrying into this institution, this feeding frenzy. I was terrified, I didn’t want history to repeat itself.

“No one knows the full truth. We know the full truth.” 

Reacting to the clip, Dan wrote: “Both barrels.”

The first three episodes of Harry & Meghan were released today (Thursday), with the following three coming out next week on December 15.

So far, plenty of revelations have already been unveiled, including Harry being late to their first date and Meghan’s “jarring” first meeting with Kate Middleton.

Meghan and Harry had their first date in 2016 at members’ club 76 Dean Street but Harry got stuck in traffic, leaving Meghan waiting for half an hour. 

 

The former actress said that Harry’s lateness almost put her off him because she was “not interested” in “one of those guys who have so much of an ego that any girl would sit waiting for a half hour for you”. 

However, when Harry arrived as a “hot, sweaty, red ball of mess” after “panicking” that he was so late, Meghan realised he was “genuinely embarrassed”.

Once they began their relationship, Meghan had a somewhat awkward first meeting with the Prince and Princess of Wales. 

Meghan recalled: “Even when Will and Kate came over and I had met her for the first time… They came for dinner.

“I remember I was in ripped jeans and I was barefoot. I was a hugger, always being a hugger. I didn’t realize that that is really jarring for a lot of Brits.

“I guess I started to understand very quickly that the formality on the outside, carried through on the inside. That there is a forward-facing way of being. And then you close the door and you are like, ‘Oh, great. Okay, we can relax now’.”

Harry & Meghan is available to watch on Netflix.
