Gogglebox fans say their 'opinions changed' after Harry and Meghan reaction as others praise 'rational' stars

Gogglebox viewers have been left divided after eagerly awaiting the families' reactions to Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's bombshell interview.

Millions of us tuned in on Monday night to watch the Duke and Duchess of Sussex sit down with chat show host Oprah Winfrey.

On Friday night's Gogglebox, fans were shown the Channel 4 stars reaction to the interview.

There were plenty of gasps as they watched Meghan bravely open up about her mental health struggle - leading her to feel suicidal while pregnant with the couple's first child, Archie.

There was even more shock as Meghan claimed an unnamed member of the royal family raised "concerns and conversations about how dark his skin might be when he's born".

But while some praised the Goggleboxers for their opinions on the explosive interviews, others fumed that their 'opinions changed'.

"Disappointed how 1 sided #Gogglebox is tonight with the oprah farce," complained one.

Another asked: "Anyone else's opinions of their favourites being changed tonight or just mine#Gogglebox."

"Just watching Gogglebox! I am just wondering how they managed to get no one who disagrees with the Megan and Harry interview! #Gogglebox," a third said.

A fourth fumed: "First time I’ve ever turned gogglebox off! @Channel4 You shouldn’t of bothered with the interview at all you’ve shot yourself in the foot with that one #Gogglebox."

But others argued: "The #Gogglebox folk having rational reactions to #MeghanandHarrywithOprah is reassuring."

Another said: "#Gogglebox showing how you actually cover these topics knew I could depend on my fave."
