He further added that it is not strictly accurate but it gives the viewers a rough idea about what the royal lifestyle is and what the pressure of putting duty and service above family brings ahead. Harry continued, "I am way more comfortable with The Crown than I am seeing the stories written about my family or my wife or myself. Because it's the difference between, that is obviously fiction, take it how you will, but this is being reported on as fact because you're supposedly news. I have a real issue with that."
