A tweet from the streamer featured the one-minute-39-second clip along with the words: “Their voices give us hope. Their actions shape our world. Their leadership inspires our future.”
The release of the trailer comes just days after the second batch of three episodes of the royal couple Harry & Meghan series aired on the streaming service.
The programs contained further damaging allegations against the royal family as the Sussexes also criticized their treatment at the hands of the press.
Harry and Meghan’s second volume went much further than the first, with Harry accusing William of yelling and screaming at him at a summit meeting about “Megxit” and saying he believes he and his wife lost their baby on 2020 due to coverage by the Post Office.
Other revelations included Harry saying a joint statement was made without his permission on behalf of himself and his brother, denying a story that William had “bullied” him outside the royal family.
He also accused William’s office of trading stories, something they “promised” they would never do when they were younger.
Buckingham Palace has not responded to the latest allegations or the claims a week earlier.
