The “intimate conversation” is expected also to address their new life in America, their stepping down from royal duties in 2020, and their relationship with the media.

A teaser trailer has been released by CBS in which Oprah says, “there is no subject that is off limits”.

In one of the clips, Harry said: “I’m just really relieved and happy to be sitting her talking to you with my wife by my side.

"Because I can’t imagine what it must have been like for her (Diana, his mother), going through this process by herself all those years ago.

“It’s been unbelievably tough for the two of us, but at least we had each other.”
