This is the moment that Meghan describes meeting the late Queen Elizabeth for the first time and how she did not understand why she needed to curtsy to Harry‘s grandmother…

There are people out there who will overly scrutinise every second of the Meghan & Harry documentary on Netflix, but this clip that wound up online is actually quite interesting. Meghan describes her first meeting with the Queen, finding it extremely ridiculous that she had to curtsy in front of her royal boyfriend’s grandmother. Which, fair enough, does seem like a silly thing to do at a family brunch. But I’d be lying if I said Harry didn’t look a bit stung by her telling of the story. I mean she’s essentially having a dig at his dead grandma, on a clip that’s going to air to millions of people around the world on Netflix. Acting like it’s no big deal to meet the Queen! Imagine! Naturally, Royal Family Twitter is fuming:
Disrespectful. Seriously. When I think Queen Máxima, CP Mary for example have to learn other languages, religion, history, protocol etc why she couldn’t try to learn and check. Everybody knows about curtsy the Monarchs in general. Smh

How he can just sit there and let her mock his grandmother, his family, his country and our institutions like like this is honestly beyond me

Lol. No doubt there’ll be more of that when the second part of the documentary drops on December 15. People are already calling out the fact that some of the show uses doctored footage from the life of Katie Price .
