　１分間の予告編では、夫妻の親密な写真が次々と映され、「閉ざされた扉の向こうで起きていることは誰にも見えない」と語るヘンリー王子や、目を拭うメーガン妃の映像が流れる。
　夫妻の親友で伝記作家のオミド・スコビー氏はツイッターに、同作品の配信開始は８日だとし、「二人の愛の物語の裏側や、彼らが直面した挑戦」が描かれていると投稿した。
　予告編は、ヘンリー王子の兄ウィリアム皇太子が皇太子として初の米国訪問を行う中で公開された。また英王室内では、新たな人種差別問題が浮上したばかりだ。
　先月２９日に英バッキンガム宮殿で開かれたレセプションで、王族の側近を長く務めてきた貴族女性が黒人女性に対して差別的な発言をし、辞任に追い込まれた。この貴族女性はウィリアム皇太子の代母（洗礼式の証人）でもあった。

Netflix on Thursday unveiled a long-awaited trailer for a six-part docuseries in which Prince Harry and wife Meghan lift the lid on their lives in the royal family.
Omid Scobie, a close friend and biographer of the couple, tweeted that the series would be aired on December 8, adding it will share the other side of their love story and the challenges they faced.
The announcement coincides with Harry's elder brother William's first trip to the United States as Prince of Wales and another race row within the family back home.
William -- the heir to the throne -- has been forced to part ways with one of his godmothers after she used racially charged language to a black British woman at a palace reception on Tuesday.
Harry and Meghan, a mixed-race former television actress, cited racism in the royal household as one of the reasons for their acrimonious departure almost three years ago.
Royal insiders described William's visit to Boston to present his annual climate change awards to innovators on Friday as his Superbowl moment.
But Scobie tweeted that if tomorrow is Prince William's Super Bowl, then here's your Halftime Show as he shared the trailer.
With commentary from friends, family, and historians discussing the state of the British Commonwealth today (and the Royal Family's relationship with the press), the Netflix series aims to 'paint a picture of our world and how we treat each other', he added.
The family will be braced for more revelations from the docuseries and Harry's autobiography Spare, which is due out in January.
The minute-long trailer, posted on Twitter, features intimate photographs of the couple, interspersed with a clip of Harry saying: No one sees what's going on behind closed doors and images of Meghan wiping her eyes.
