Meghan Markle wipes away tears and Harry looks to sky as she says 'the stakes are so high'

A first-look trailer has been released for Netflix's new series Harry & Meghan, which is expected to air in the next few weeks. In several parts of the trailer, Meghan appears to be crying, with her head in her hands in one still and wiping her eyes in a brief video clip.

The minute-long trailer includes pictures of the royal couple growing up, and of their relationship. It features a picture of Harry playing guitar for Meghan and several selfies and pictures of the two together in private, including several of them kissing in a photo booth.

In one picture, a pregnant Meghan is shown posing by a lakeside. In the trailer, Prince Harry is asked why he wanted to make the documentary. He answers: "No-one sees what's happening behind closed doors."

Harry is also shown saying he did "everything I could" to protect his family, and Meghan asks: "When the stakes are this high, doesn't it make more sense to hear our story from us?"

Harry and Meghan signed a multi-year deal with Netflix in 2020 but this documentary is the first content they're releasing. Harry has also announced an autobiography called "Spare," which is set to be released on January 10.

According to the Mirror's sources, the series is expected to air on Netflix on December 8, but the official post from Netflix just said "coming soon." Netflix reportedly paid £88m for the series. The Duchess of Sussex's podcast on Spotify, Archetypes Podcast with Meghan, has just finished its initial run and included an interview with Mariah Carey.

It has been reported that Mike Tindall and Zara Phillips could replace Harry and Meghan in the family, according to a celebrity expert. Greg Double told OK! that the King could give Mike a key Royal role after he became hugely popular on I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here!
