Harry and Meghan sip tea inside late Queen's playhouse in explosive Netflix trailer

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle can be seen sipping tea in one of the late Queen's most beloved places in the explosive trailer for the second part of their Netflix series.

The promo, which teases the final three episodes of Harry & Meghan that drop on Thursday, features more unseen, private photos of the couple.

And one appears to show them in Harry's grandmother's play cottage, which she received for her sixth birthday, that lies in the grounds of Royal Lodge in Windsor, the now home of Prince Andrew.

The snap shows Harry and Meghan sitting smiling at each other as they hold cups and saucers and sit on some of the mini furniture.

The miniature thatched cottage known as Y Bwthyn Bach, or The Little House, was gifted to the then Princess Elizabeth by the people of Wales in 1932.

The house stands at just 22 feet wide and 15 feet high and was built by architect Edmund Charles Morgan Willmott.

It comprises a living room, a kitchen, a bedroom and a bathroom and also came complete with electric lighting and running water as well as cutlery, utensils and furniture.

In February 1932, an insurance policy for the house was taken out in the name of Princess Elizabeth of York.

It has since been used by many generations of royal children, including King Charles and Princess Anne.

Having grown up at Royal Lodge herself, Princess Beatrice also played in the cottage, and in 2012 she told Andrew Marr how she helped Her late Majesty renovate the miniature property.

Meanwhile, elsewhere in the 90-second teaser, Harry say that people were "happy to lie” to protect his brother Prince William, while Meghan claims she was "fed to the wolves".

Clips of Harry and Meghan’s wedding are also played alongside news footage and newspaper headlines about the pair.

Meghan says: 'It gave us a chance to create that home we always wanted.”

Harry adds: "I’ve always felt as though this was a fight worth fighting for,” as photographs and video footage of him and his family are shown.

In the first three episodes released last Thursday the Duke and Duchess of Sussex railed against their treatment by the Firm.

Harry signified an "unconscious bias” of racism at the heart of the institution while Meghan labelled William and Kate emotionless after she hugged them at their first meeting.

Harry also claimed the royals asked why Meghan should be "protected" from media speculation, alleging he was told it was something all royal women - including Princess Diana and Kate - have to go through.

While Meghan said she was left unprepared for royal life as she didn't know what a walkabout was and wore muted colours to blend in.
