The trailer featured various black-and-white stills of the couple, but one of the shots was actually taken inside Buckingham Palace. One photo featured Harry and Meghan walking hand in hand inside an oval-shaped room, as they exited the entrance on the north side of the 775-roomed building, which is directly underneath the late Queen's private apartments. A box could be seen in the right-hand corner, bearing the words: "Her Majesty."

Under royal protocol, permission had to be sought from the late Queen for photographs and videos to be taken inside the Palace, and the Telegraph reports that the couple didn't have the necessary permission.

However, it is believed that the pair were not made aware of any complaints and that the photographer was not asked to leave the premises.

The photo was taken during Harry and Meghan's 'farewell tour', which saw them undertake various engagements ahead of their departure from the royal family and move to the United States.

Netflix officially states that Harry & Meghan is "coming soon", however, it's been reported in multiple outlets that the documentary will land on the streaming platform on Thursday 8 December.

The trailer also showed an array of never-before-seen photos including a handful of intimate wedding photos, candid holiday snaps from Botswana, and a smattering of heartwarming pregnancy photos.
