Not all is well between Prince Harry, Meghan Markle and the royal family

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's latest ITV documentary "Harry & Meghan: An African Journey" has stirred up mixed reactions from the viewers as well as the royal family. In addition, it has got rumour mills churning with reports about tension within the royal family and the Duke and the Duchess of Sussex are struggling with feelings of isolation.
