Harry and Meghan promise to tell it all in a new documentary series 1:11
London (CNN) — The new six-part documentary series about the Duke and Duchess of Sussex will launch on Netflix on Thursday.
The show everyone seems to be talking about will be released in two parts, each consisting of three episodes. The first three arrive Thursday at 3 a.m. ET (8 a.m. GMT), with the others arriving a week later on December 15.
It's unclear at this stage whether it will be as controversial as Oprah's interview with the couple, but it will inevitably cause some anxiety within the walls of Buckingham Palace, given that the British royal family will only find out what they contains only when the rest of the world finds out.
Netflix strategically dropped its promotional material last week during the Liz Garbus-led show, promising an unrestrained deep dive into the lives of the royal family in explosive detail.
In the latest trailer, Prince Harry reflects on how life has changed since the couple decided to step back from royal duties in 2020, saying: "It's really hard to look back now and to say, "What happened? « »
The trailer then flashes back through the years to remind viewers that Meghan was first heralded as "a real rock star" before "everything changed".
“There is a family hierarchy. You know, there are leaks, but stories are also planted,' the Duke said over archival footage of the Windsor clan gathered on Buckingham Palace's famous balcony as eerie music plays in the background. . “It's a dirty game. »
The trailer also sees Harry connect his wife's experience with the media to the experience of his mother, Princess Diana, and sister-in-law, Catherine, which he describes as "heavy media coverage".
Earlier, a one-minute preview - which was released during the new Prince and Princess of Wales' trip to Boston - whetted the appetite for the series. In it, a sequence of photos of the Sussexes in public and private moments suggested a more intimate view of the couple.

"No one sees what goes on behind closed doors," said Harry. “I had to do everything possible to protect my family. »
Meghan later adds: "When the stakes are so high, doesn't it make more sense to hear our story from us? »
Buckingham Palace have yet to comment on the series, but there are sure to be internal discussions about what might be revealed.
In their two-hour primetime Oprah special which aired last year, the Sussexes accused the Royal Family of racism and deception. The encounter has been compared to Princess Diana's explosive 1995 interview with the BBC, and the couple's latest offer is likely to be just as controversial.
In the past, the late Queen Elizabeth II has acknowledged in several statements the pressure Harry and Meghan faced, but avoided getting involved in any sort of public spat with her grandson.
However, it remains to be seen whether the new monarch, King Carlos III, will choose to respond to the accusations of his son and his daughter-in-law.
The decision to include still photographs of a steel-faced Princess of Wales in both trailers has drawn comment online. How his likeness is actually used in the series will be closely examined inside the palace. Prince William is known to be fiercely protective of his wife, and if he feels he's been unfairly criticized on the show, he's more likely to call the Sussexes.
Harry and Meghan went quiet on the Netflix series on Tuesday night when they appeared in New York to accept an award for their work on racial justice and mental health. The couple briefly stopped on the event's blue carpet to pose for photographers before heading inside.
