Netflix's latest installment of "The Bad and the Beautiful" finds the Duke and Duchess of Sussex in exile on a sprawling California estate. It asks a simple question: Can the son of King Charles III and the daughter of a mixed-race couple live in wedded bliss, remain estranged from the Royal Family, and survive an onslaught of mainstream media, internet trolls, and greedy relatives in Florida? The answer will require six episodes. For now, let's say they're working on it. If you come to this series with clean hands and no preconceptions, you will discover a loving couple with children (heard, not seen), who share similar interests in public service, like gender equality, social justice, world hunger, and elephants. They're nice people with good intentions. If they also appear self-involved, well it's because they are, like most celebrities, or anyone who craves attention, which is everyone. In another dimension, or plain of existence, Harry and Meghan would be, simply, the Sussexes of LA, well-off suburbanites, frolicking and shopping and living life. That of course would be too bad for the tabloid paparazzi (the point of this series so far). But as we are stuck in this dimension, the Sussexes will just have to endure the spotlight as Diana did, and with luck avoid catastrophe, as Diana couldn't. You know, what is is, what's done is done, there's nothing new under the sun. Harry and Meghan's story is as old as that. Those who are expecting revelations this time will have to wait for the next installments.
