Meghan Markle and Prince Harry are ready to tackle it all when their new Netflix docuseries, titled Harry & Meghan, premieres on Thursday, December 8.
In the new trailer, the 38-year-old already didn't have the nicest things to say about is family.
"There's a hierarchy of the family," he said of the royals. "You know, there's leaking, but there's also planting of stories."
"There was a war against Meghan to suit other people's agendas," he continued. "It's a dirty game."
In a voiceover, Harry said, "The pain and suffering of women marrying into this institution — this feeding frenzy."
Meghan, 41, also bluntly shared her opinion of Harry's brood, saying, "I realized, they're never going to protect you."
Harry, who shares daughter Lilibet and son Archie with Meghan, also makes it clear how protective he is of his wife.
"I was terrified, I didn't want history to repeat itself," Prince Harry said, referring to when his mother, Princess Diana, was constantly chased by paparazzi in the '90s.
"No one knows the full truth. We know the full truth," the Duke of Sussex said in the video.
The new reality show will "explore the clandestine days of their early courtship and the challenges that led to them feeling forced to step back from their full-time roles in the institution."
"With commentary from friends and family, most of whom have never spoken publicly before about what they witnessed, and historians who discuss the state of the British Commonwealth today and the royal family's relationship with the press, the series does more than illuminate one couple's love story, it paints a picture of our world and how we treat each other," the description added.
Naturally, the royal family is nervous for what's to come. “Certainly I think [that] the questions he’s been asking have been raising a number of eyebrows,” expert Nick Bullen stated. “And then those that are sort of closer to [King Charles III] and the queen and the Prince and Princess of Wales — who are part of the palace infrastructure — are absolutely bracing themselves for what’s about to come because nobody knows. History has shown us that when the Sussexes speak, they can throw out some pretty big accusations.”
Volume one of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex's six-episode docuseries, will hit Netflix on Thursday, December 8, while volume two will premiere on Thursday, December 15.
