From Meghan claiming that Kate Middleton made her cry, to Harry attesting that his brother and father were unknowingly trapped within the institution, to Meghan alleging that there had been concerns over the colour of her first son Archie’s skin, the 90-minute event certainly grabbed the attention of people all over the globe.

And now, who knows, it may just grab an Emmy.
