Directed by two-time Oscar-nominated filmmaker Liz Garbus, "Harry and Meghan" broke documentary ratings records for Netflix when the series' first three episodes were released on Dec. 8. Royal expert and host of the "To Di For Daily" podcast Kinsey Schofield told Fox News Digital that she was not surprised by the docuseries' HCA award recognition.
"'Harry and Meghan' scored Netflix their biggest documentary debut ever," Schofield said. "We have to give credit where credit is due. Analytically, it is likely considered a success by all parties involved. Even if it was morbid curiosity that attracted the audience. They were still watching."
