Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are looking ahead to what's next.

As the credits rolled at the end of the third episode of Harry & Meghan, which hit Netflix Thursday, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex addressed what audiences can expect in volume two of their docuseries, which premieres next week.

"This is when a family and a family business are in direct conflict," Meghan, 41, said, referencing the royal family.

"Everything that's happened to us was always gonna happen to us," Harry, 38, added of the decisions that drove them to step back as senior working royals in March 2020.

Meghan added, "Suddenly, what clicked in my head was, 'It's never gonna stop.' "

"There was no other option at this point. We need to get outta here," Harry said.

Harry also called wearing a Nazi Halloween costume in 2005 "one of the biggest mistakes of my life," revealed that he "blocked out" many early memories of his late mother Princess Diana and said he stepped back from his senior royal role to best protect his family.

"I accept that there will be people around the world who fundamentally disagree with what I've done and how I've done it," Harry said in a sit-down interview in episode two. "But I knew that I had to do everything I could to protect my family, especially after what happened to my mum. I didn't want history to repeat itself."
