Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's team has issued a statement in defense of their new Netflix series, stating that their decision to step back from royal duties, known as Megxit, was not about privacy.
The statement comes after their explosive series was released on Netflix, featuring many intimate photos and videos of the couple, including never-before-seen images of their children, Archie and Lilibet.
Some have questioned why the couple would share such personal photos and footage in the show, given their decision to quit their roles as working royals.
The couple's global press secretary, Ashley Hansen, has pushed back, stating that their move from the UK to the US did not mean they wanted to lead a more private life. She emphasized that the couple's statement announcing their decision to step back mentions nothing of privacy and reiterates their desire to continue their roles and public duties.
The statement comes ahead of the release of parts four, five, and six of the series on Thursday.
