Prince Harry just accused the royals of 'planting' stories

After stepping down from their roles as senior working royals, Prince Harry and Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, haven't held back in airing some of their grievances with the way that the Royal Family and Buckingham Palace operates – especially when it comes to their relationship with the press. See: that Oprah interview for details.

Now, it looks as though the couple's new Netflix docu-series, Harry & Meghan, (a six-parter which will begin airing on 8 December), which they initially said would be about their 'love story', will further explore that, with a new trailer showing Prince Harry discussing the hierarchy within his family.

"There's a hierarchy in the family, you know, there's leaking... but there's also planting of stories," he says, before another voice says "There was a war against Meghan to suit other people's agendas".

Harry then adds, "It's a dirty game."

Later on in the newly released clip, the prince's mother, Princess Diana, is also shown (along with various newspaper headlines about her), as he comments on "the pain and suffering of women marrying into this institution, this media frenzy".

A photo of the current Princess of Wales (Catherine Middleton), Camilla (Queen Consort) and Sophie, Countess of Wessex, then also appears on screen.

Buckingham Palace have not commented publicly on the series.
