Meghan Markle and Prince Harry want an apology from the royal family — preferably in person, according to The Sunday Times.

The report came after the release of the final part of their Netflix docuseries, "Harry & Meghan," on Thursday.

In it, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex described the start of their relationship as well as the rift that opened between them and other royals, including Prince William and King Charles III.

So far, the royal family has not engaged on the record with the criticism the couple makes in the series toward the royals and the royal institution.

Buckingham Palace did not immediately respond to Insider's request for comment, while Kensington Palace, which represents William, declined to comment.

Per the Sunday Times report, Meghan and Harry want their complaints addressed in person, citing a similar meeting along the same lines.

That meeting addressed a separate scandal in which a royal aide was accused of racism after asking a Black British woman where she "really came from."

A royal correspondent, Roya Nikkhah, said the couple saw that as a "double standard" compared to how they had been treated.

She cited an unnamed source close to the couple, who said: "Nothing like that was ever done when Harry and Meghan raised various concerns — no meeting, formal apology or taking responsibility or accountability. That is hard to swallow — 100 percent, yes, they'd like to have a meeting."
