Harry And Meghan's Netflix Docuseries: New episodes To Air Today As Palace Braces For More Claims

Three new episodes of Harry and Meghan's Netflix docuseries are being released today, with Buckingham Palace bracing for more claims from the couple. 

The streaming giant will publish the second half of the couple's six-part series at 8am this morning, after releasing the first three episodes earlier this month.

The latest instalments are expected to look at Harry and Meghan's relocation from the UK to the US, and their decision to step back from frontline royal duties in January 2020.

In trailers teasing the final three episodes, Meghan's friend Lucy Fraser, and the Sussexes' lawyer, Jenny Afia, accuse the palace of "feeding" stories about the duchess to the press to avoid other "less favourable" stories from being published.

Ms Afia, a partner at the media law firm Schillings, is first to be featured, speaking as footage of Buckingham Palace is shown.

"There was a real kind of war against Meghan and I've certainly seen evidence that there was negative briefing from the palace against Harry and Meghan to suit other people's agendas," she says.

The trailer moves on to Ms Fraser, who says:

"Meg became this scapegoat for the palace, and so they would feed stories on her whether they were true or not, to avoid other less favourable stories being printed."

"You would just see it play out," Meghan then says herself. "Like, a story about someone in the family would pop up for a minute and they go, 'gotta make that go away'.

"But there is real estate on a website home page, there is real estate there on a newspaper front cover, and something has to be filled in there about someone royal."

A previous teaser released at the beginning of the week featured Harry saying "they were happy to lie to protect my brother", referring to Prince William, against images of Buckingham Palace and newspaper headlines including one which read: "Queen orders a hard Megxit".

The final three episodes will air a week after the first three were made available to stream across the world.

In these first episodes, viewers heard from Harry and Meghan talking about the pressure they felt from media interest in their lives, and how they did not feel supported by the Royal Family.

The couple signed lucrative deals, thought to be worth more than £100m, with Netflix and Spotify after quitting as senior working royals in 2020.

Neither Kensington Palace, which represents the Prince and Princess of Wales, nor Buckingham Palace have commented on the series or the most recent trailer, despite the allegations.

Sky News understands palace officials are currently focused on the Princess of Wales's carol service, which is due to be filmed at Westminster Abbey on Thursday.

The event will aim to shine a light on a congregation of almost 2,000 people who have been helping their communities across the UK, as well as remembering the Queen's legacy.
