So after Tom Bradby’s documentary on Harry and Meghan: An African Journey last night, what are people talking about?
The mines issue, 22 years after Diana walked through a minefield in Angola? Violence against women and girls in South Africa, as evident in the training that girls get to help them fend off attacks, which the couple saw in Cape Town? Conservation of elephants, Harry’s big thing? The couple – first together, then Harry singly – went to an astonishing succession of African states one after another – was it really necessary to pack them all into a single visit? – and visited a worthy project in each of them. They seemed friendly and accessible in dealing with people; they got a warm reception wherever they went, as you’d have expected.
Nope. The morning after the documentary, what’s actually leading the headlines is the personal, explosive stuff. A couple on the edge of losing it.
