Both Nick and Piers’ co-host Susanna Reid disagreed, claiming Meghan and Harry are entitled to “a level of privacy”.
Susanna commented: “I can completely understand they want to control coverage of their child.”

“On this, there will be a battle over copyright but fundamentally, it’s a battle between Meghan and her father.
