Prince Harry feared “history would repeat itself” when Meghan Markle married into the royal family.
In a new trailer for Harry and Meghan Markle’s Netflix docuseries, “Harry & Meghan,” the Duke of Sussex explains the history of bad treatment against women who enter The Firm.
“The pain and suffering of women marrying into this institution, this feeding frenzy,” Harry says as footage of his late mother, as well as tabloid covers, display on screen.
“I realized they’re never going to protect you,” Markle adds.
“I was terrified,” Harry responds. “I didn’t want history to repeat itself.”
The highly anticipated project confirmed it will release the first three episodes on Dec. 8, which Page Six already had revealed, and the second three on Dec. 15.
Christopher Bouzy, who appears in the trailer, also can be seen saying “it’s about hatred, it’s about race,” and tweeted after the new clip’s release, “Since filming this, numerous bombshells were published confirming what I said. It was always about race and hatred.”
The trailer also includes narration from Piers Morgan describing Markle, 41, as a “royal rockstar,” though his attitude would later change and he would begin to call her Princess Pinocchio.
Morgan resigned from “Good Morning Britain” after stormed off the set after incessantly criticizing her and Prince Harry’s interview with Oprah Winfrey — and accused her of lying about her severe mental health issues.

Since the first trailer’s release, which dropped during the Prince and Princess of Wales’ trip to Boston, a source told Page Six that the ex-royal couple wanted to “disrupt” their trip.
Royal watcher Hugo Vickers, a friend of the royal family, also told Page Six of the timing: “Surprise, surprise, how very boring of Harry and Meghan. But this sort of thing is inevitable. It does sound a bit pretentious what they have produced.”
