The director of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's Netflix docuseries has issued claims against the royal family and Buckingham Palace. 

Liz Garbus, the director of "Harry & Meghan" docuseries, accused Buckingham Palace of trying to discredit the series.  

She told Vanity Fair that a senior palace aide claimed that members of the royal family had not been given a right to comment on the series, which gave her enlightenment into the alleged palace mind games the Sussexes had complained about.

Garbus noted that Buckingham Palace said they did not reach out for comment even when they did.

The Netflix series director went on to say that the palace did that to discredit them and "by discrediting us, they can discredit the content of the show."

Several British publications described the documentary as a "very Californian exercise in grievance" and a "tedious, narcissistic wallow."

A palace source earlier said members of the royal family, Buckingham Palace, or Prince William's office at Kensington Palace were not approached for comment on the content of the series.

Later, Kensington Palace confirmed that they received an email from a third-party production company unknown to them.

Kensington Palace claimed to have contacted Archewell Productions and Netflix through email to verify the authenticity of the email, but these were unanswered.

Royal Family on Netflix Docuseries

A Buckingham Palace source had disputed the Duke and Duchess of Sussex's claims that the royals were asked to comment.

Another source noted that the lack of verification of the email's authenticity left them unable to respond on the matter, Daily Mail reported.

The source added that the email did not solely address the Netflix docuseries. The Sussexes' Netflix docuseries has become the video streaming platform's biggest documentary debut week.

Netflix said in a statement that the first three episodes of the Netflix docuseries logged 81.55 million viewing hours after its debut. Over 28 million households watched a part of the Sussexes docuseries.

Garbus noted that the docuseries' spine was the love story but that connecting the personal story and larger historical context was always necessary.

Aside from the Netflix docuseries, Prince Harry's memoir also garnered attention in the United Kingdom and the United States.

Royal Family on Prince Harry's Memoir 'Spare'

Prince Harry's memoir "Spare" was released on January 10 and shed light on his life in the royal family.

He talked about his mother, Princess Diana, how her death affected him growing up, and details of his relationship with members of the royal family, including Prince William.

When asked what he hopes his family's takeaway is from his memoir, Harry told PEOPLE that he doesn't "want to tell anyone what to think of it," and that includes his family. 

He said the book is a raw account of his life, and its truths are, in many ways, a continuation of his mental health journey.

Harry admitted that there were details that he omitted as he knew he would cross the line if he published those. Official figures showed that the book sold 467,183 copies in its first week alone.
