Sooz Kempner’s hilarious spoof Royal correspondent went full Daily Mail on Harry & Meghan
A six-part Netflix docuseries made by and about the Duke and Duchess of Sussex – Harry & Meghan – has caused a right royal furore in both #TeamSussex and #TeamAnyoneButSussex.
The UK media, which came in for heavy criticism in the series, reacted by behaving exactly as they were accused of behaving.
The Daily Mail published 65 articles about Harry and Meghan in the last 24H.
For a rag that constantly accuses them of being attention-seeking, it's giving them an unbelievable amount of attention.
By coincidence, it published 0 articles about Michelle Mone during that time.

MP Bob Seely – you can probably guess which party he represents – is trying to bring forward legislation to have the couple stripped of their royal titles.
Bob Seely, MP for the Isle of Wight (Cons) speaking on LBC about his bill to strip Harry and Meghan of their titles:
“I don’t know if Prince Andrew should be stripped of his title because he hasn’t been convicted of anything.”
Neither have Harry and Meghan you utter imbecile.

Singer, actor and comedian, Sooz Kempner, was inspired by the commentary around the show to channel her inner Royal correspondent, Nicola Witchell. Sounds vaguely familar.
It’s a real treat.

“A former prince, raised in extreme privilege, who served several terms in Afghanistan as an army captain, 38 years old, is controlled by Meghan the Sussex, an actress who grew up in small town America.”
Here are a few things tweeters had to say about it.
