Prince Harry ‘erased’ brother William from Polo doc: Could it be the ‘nail in the coffin’ for Sussexes
As part of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s lucrative Netflix deal, the new documentary POLO hit Netflix on December 8.
Despite the royal family’s long history with the sport, the OTT title takes a new direction by featuring the Duke of Sussex exclusively lead the “behind-the-scenes look at the fast-paced and glamorous world of Polo.” Those familiar with Prince Harry and Prince William’s olden polo connect would especially feel the the Prince of Wales-shaped void. Royal experts are not mincing their words sharing their two cents on the matter.
Andrew Pierce on GB News was vehemently against William’s erasure from the docuseries. “There’s a big gap in this because of course, polo is the favourite sport of Prince William and he isn’t appearing in the documentary because he’s not speaking to his brother,” he said. Delving deeper into the British royalty’s history with the sport, he added, “ mean, you can’t do a polo documentary, frankly about Prince Harry if you don’t include the British royal family in it because.
Similarly, Sarah Louise Robertson underlined that the future king’s absence in the Netflix title almost felt like “Harry’s just erased how he got into the game in this.”
