Prince Harry and Meghan Markle may have received a nomination from the Hollywood Critics Awards for their Netflix docuseries in the Best Streaming Nonfiction Series category on July 12, 2023.
The nomination was announced amid the Sussexes struggles in their business deals which began last month, following their fallout with Spotify, cancelling their podcast deal worth in millions.
The nomination must have given the couple a breath of relief as they were showered with praises and congratulation on social media.
As Netflix continues to work with the former royal couple on upcoming projects, per its statement, the nomination irked many royal watchers.
“Please, let anyone win, but I'm sorry, they're going to hate me but I have to be honest,” tweeted one user. “Please don't let Harry and Megan earn it, this series is bad, they're just whiners pretending they're attacking her privacy and contradicting themselves. That's all.And now what???”
Many were of the opinion that the docuseries was based on lies and it was more a work of fiction than non-fiction.
One user on Twitter quipped, “But it appears that the Harry & Meghan show was actually more fiction than nonfiction.”
Another commentator claimed that the couple used their PR to gain the nomination, “Do you notice under this the other Categories voted have not pushed their propaganda PR to comment saying they should win, yet it seems Harry and Meghan have, they show little respect for the other categories.
They can’t even see that’s why they are considered Toxic.”
Resonating a similar sentiment, a user on Twitter said that Harry & Meghan was full of fiction, adding, “Even if you disregard their lies about the Royal Family, one can not say the footage they used of paps hounding other people including Michael Cohen, as if they were the ones being hounded is NON FICTION.”
Another chimed in, “Harry & Meghan was made based on fabrications and lies. Why is it nominated [for] nonfiction? Most of all, how on earth the badly rated show can be nominated for any award?”
Back in December, the couple detailed their experience of living with the royal family, and the reason that culminated to their exit from their senior royal roles in 2020.
