XML header gets deleted when loading in XDocument

Question

I have an XML document which I load in visual studio like this:

using (MemoryStream stream = new MemoryStream(xmlFile.Content))
{
    using (System.Xml.XmlReader xmlReader = System.Xml.XmlReader.Create(stream))
    {
        var xmlDocument = XDocument.Load(xmlReader, LoadOptions.None);
    }
}

My only issue is that from the XML file the header gets deleted as soon as it gets loaded.

The header:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

I tried all the load options but it didn't work. Is there a fix for this problem?
