Alongside a tearful clip of the couple talking about the safety of their children in the 2022 Netflix docu-series, they wrote: “As Harry awaits the outcome of his security case against the Home Office, Meghan Markle has taken to splattering their names on candles for a fee from looking after the safety of her ‘babies’.”

The criticism comes after the pair confirmed they would help produce a new polo-themed drama for Netflix.
Set in the town of Wellington, Florida, the new untitled project will follow two rival teams and the families that lead them.
The scripted series is its latest offering under a first-look Netflix deal that gives the streaming giant first option on projects from Sussex’s Archewell Productions.
A spokesperson for the Sussexes suggested further announcements would be made soon on the production front with Netflix and other streamers.
According to US outlet Deadline, the series will be written by Francisca X Hu, known for Dynasty, who will also serve as executive producer alongside the Duke and Duchess of Sussex.
