Bethenny Frankel said that “Harry & Meghan” docuseries practically put her to sleep.
The “Real Housewives of New York City” alum shared in a TikTok video on Monday that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s Netflix docuseries is boring, saying, “I found it a little bit boring. It didn’t hold my attention. It seemed like they really wanted to be humanized. They wanted us to know that they are real human beings.”

She continued, “We believe that you are really in love and we believe that you’re really human beings.”
The 52-year-old also suggested that Markle, 41, “wanted” to “hang out with major celebrities” and at the same time gain notoriety by becoming a member of the royal family.
She said, “It felt like this entire documentary was about how famous we are … it’s relentless.”
“If you are being trolled by the media, the royal family gave you the advice to say nothing because that’s the advice that most very famous people are given. If you add gasoline to a fire, the fire blows up even bigger. It feels like they — and Meghan in particular — just keep wanting to tell us more.”
Moreover, the reality star suggested that the docuseries was “a smash and grab job for money” after the famous couple stepped down from their royal duties in 2020 and started living in Montecito, California.
“It feels like, ‘Grab the bag because we’re leaving this thing and we gotta take everything we can,’” the “ReWives” podcast host added.
After her post, many of Frankel’s fans shared their own thought in the comments section. One of them joked, “It was great background noise for the best 3 hour nap I wasn’t planning on taking,” while another claimed, “100 million reasons why they did this,” referencing the couple’s payout from Netflix.
Another fan added, “I’m pleased you said that in a calm and effective manner. I get it more now when someone doesn’t attack them as people but explains it rationally!!”
On the other hand, there are those who don’t agree with the reality star’s opinions.
A follower commented, “No. They wanted to tell their story. End. Did not want to have the same life his mom did. Give them a chance. I gave you a chance.”
