The second released trailer for the upcoming “Harry & Meghan” documentary on Netflix has dropped – and the former senior royals are not holding back when discussing the suffering they experienced at the hands of their extended family and the greater monarchy.
In one scene, Prince Harry can be heard saying over a montage of video, “There’s a hierarchy of the family. You know, there’s leaking, but also there also planting of stories.”
His wife of four years, Meghan Markle boldly claims, “I realized, ‘They’re never gonna protect you.'”
Prince Harry and Markle famously stepped away from their duties as senior royals in 2020, moving to California to raise their son Archie and later, daughter Lilibet.
In March 2021, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex opened up about their relationship with the Royal family in an explosive interview with Oprah Winfrey. The couple alleged that there was talk about their son Archie’s skin color among the inner family circle. After that interview, Oprah shared that Harry had made it clear neither his grandmother nor grandfather was the source of said comments.
Throughout the trailer of the new documentary, disparaging headlines and paparazzi coverage of Markle is played, while one commentator adds, “It’s about hatred, it’s about race.”
At one point, the prince simply states “It’s a dirty game.”
He later alludes to an eerie similarity in the treatment of his wife and his late mother, Princess Diana.
“The pain and suffering of women marrying into this institution, this feeding frenzy” Harry says ominously, is compounded by a statement later in the trailer, where he says, “I was terrified. I didn’t want history to repeat itself.”
Volume I of the program will be released on Dec. 8 while Volume II will come out Dec. 15.
