Offensive language

While Meghan and Harry are quite well-spoken there is a strong focus on calling out racism. A lot of the headlines and news reports used include racist language.

In one isolated scene Meghan explains her first experience hearing someone call her mother the n-word and how that impacted her.

Mental health

Although not directly spoken about throughout these first episodes it is clear that both Harry and Meghan have past and current experiences that have affected their mental health. While their life stories are not so relatable it is easy to connect with their feelings sadness, loneliness and disappointment.
