Prince Harry has highlighted the “pain and suffering” of women marrying into the British royal family, in a new trailer for the Sussexes’ highly anticipated behind-the-scenes docuseries. Netflix has promised an “unprecedented and in-depth documentary series” over six episodes where the couple “share the other side of their high-profile love story”. Volume one of the series will launch this Thursday – exactly three months after the death of Harry’s grandmother Queen Elizabeth II – with the second volume to be released on 15 December. A new one-minute teaser video opens with a voiceover by Harry saying: “It’s really hard to look back on it now and go: ‘What on earth happened?’” He continues the narration throughout, saying: “There’s a hierarchy of the family, you know, there’s leaking, but there’s also planting of stories. It’s a dirty game.” In a clear nod to his wife and to his late mother, Diana, whose image is seen in the trailer, Harry adds: “The pain and suffering of women marrying into this institution, this feeding frenzy. I was terrified, I didn’t want history to repeat itself. No one knows the full truth. We know the full truth.” Other commentators appear in the trailer, giving a flavour of what to expect, with one saying: “It’s about hatred. It’s about race,” and another adding: “There was a war against Meghan to suit other people’s agendas.” In a trailer released last week, Harry and Meghan shared previously unseen intimate photographs, some showing the duchess apparently crying, with one scene showing Harry with his head tilted back as his wife appears to wipe away tears with both hands. Buckingham Palace is still reeling from the aftermath of the resignation of Lady Susan Hussey, one of the late Queen’s ladies-in-waiting, after she questioned the heritage of a charity founder, Ngozi Fulani, at a palace reception. The palace and William, her godson, described the comments as “deeply regrettable” and “unacceptable”. Harry and Meghan announced a multi-year deal through their production arm Archewell to make TV series, films and children’s shows for Netflix in September 2020. The move came after they decided to “step back” as senior members the royal family and become self-sufficient.
