Harry & Meghan is an in-depth documentary series that sees the Duke and Duchess of Sussex sharing their side of the story.

In the Netflix docuseries from Emmy-winning director Liz Garbus, we'll learn about Harry and Meghan's romance, starting with the early days of their relationship and what led them to step back from their roles as members of the Royal Family. We'll also hear from close friends and family — some of whom have not shared their feelings publicly prior to their appearance in Harry & Meghan — plus historians who discuss the royals' relationship with the media.

Speaking to People about the project, Meghan Markle said: "It's nice to be able to trust someone with our story — a seasoned director whose work I've long admired — even if it means it may not be the way we would have told it. But that's not why we're telling it. We're trusting our story to someone else, and that means it will go through their lens."
