Prince Harry's Polo failure labeled as 'Laughingstock'

 

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's latest Netflix collaboration has sparked outrage, with opponents considering it a vanity effort.

As part of their £80 million arrangement with Netflix, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex executive-produced Polo, a behind-the-scenes look at the elite sport near to Harry's heart.

However, the series has not exactly been a success with viewers.

Royal experts have quickly weighed in, with one stating Harry is being "laughed at" for what they see as an obvious attempt to soothe his and Meghan's egos.

Rupert Bell, a Royal journalist, did not mince words, calling the series as more of a "polo reality show" than a serious examination of the sport.

Speaking with Talk TV, he revealed insiders' disdainful reactions: "It's almost being laughed at by members of the elite polo community." It seems like a vanity enterprise, centered on ego rather than the sport itself."

Bell also noted that the series included players who, while good, are not considered top-tier in the polo world.

"It's a tough sport, but the content doesn't live up to the standard of elite polo," he told me.
