“No one knows the full truth. We know the full truth,” says Prince Harry in a new trailer for “Harry & Meghan.” From Oscar-nominated filmmaker Liz Garbus, the Netflix docuseries revisits what exactly went down when Harry married “Suits” actress Meghan Markle.
As Harry explains, “There’s a hierarchy of the family, you know. There’s leaking, but there’s also planting of stories.” Meghan recalls, “I realized, they’re never going to protect you.”
Instead, “there was a war against Meghan to suit other people’s agendas,” we’re told. “It’s about hatred. It’s about race.” In Harry’s words, “It’s a dirty game.”
The spot also touches on “the pain and suffering of women marrying into this institution” and alludes to the death of Princess Diana, Harry’s mother. “I was terrified. I didn’t want history to repeat itself,” he says.
Garbus received Oscar nods for “What Happened, Miss Simone?” and “The Farm: Angola, USA” and won an Emmy for the former. She also took home an Emmy for “Ghosts of Abu Ghraib.”
Volume I of “Harry & Meghan” launches December 8 and Volume II arrives December 15.
