Harry-Meghan’s love-story doc trailer premieres a day after Palace race-related controversy

Los Angeles, Dec 1 : Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, are about to pull back the curtain on their love story and subsequent retreat from life as working royals, reports Variety.

After months of mystery, Netflix released a first-look trailer for the highly anticipated documentary series on Thursday.

The project, directed by What Happened, Miss Simone? helmer Liz Garbus, promises an intimate account of the couples courtship -- and unprecedented access to their tumultuous years as senior royals.(What Happened, Miss Simone?, incidentally, is a 2015 documentary on the life and music of legendary singer and activist Nina Simone.)In the trailer, which shares an array of romantic photos of the couple but none with their two kids, Garbus is heard asking, "Why did you want to make this documentary?" to which Harry responds -- in voiceover -- "No one knows whats happening behind closed doors," Variety reports."I had to do everything I could to protect my family," Harry says.

Markle, a former The Suits star, in an interview to camera, adds: "When the stakes are this high, doesnt it make more sense to hear our story from us?"The 50-second trailer, according to Variety, which is set to dramatic music and features a flash of Markle and Harry looking at one point visibly emotional during an interview, doesnt provide a release date for the series, which is merely described as "coming soon".Royal watchers and the couples supporters will no doubt take note of the timing of the trailer release, which comes just one day after a member of Britains royal household, now identified as Lady Susan Hussey, resigned after making offensive remarks to a Black guest at Buckingham Palace during a private event hosted by Queen Consort Camilla.

According to Variety, Ngozi Fulani, a British-born charity head, detailed on Twitter an uncomfortable exchange between herself and a "Lady SH", revealing that the latter had repeatedly asked her where she "really came from", to which Fulani kept repeating she was born in Britain.Hussey was Queen Elizabeth IIs lady-in-waiting.
