\"Being here now 22 years later, trying to finish what she started will be incredibly emotional but everything that I do reminds me of her,\" Harry told Bradby on the eve of his visit to Angola. \"But as I said, with the role, with the job, and the sort of the pressures that come with that, I get reminded of the bad stuff usually.\"

The documentary was underway at the same time that Harry and Meghan announced legal action against a British tabloid over privacy concerns.

Tune into “Harry & Meghan: An African Journey,\" hosted by \"Good Morning America\" co-anchor Robin Roberts, on Wednesday, Oct. 23, at 10 p.m. ET, on the ABC Television Network.

Harry said recently that his \"deepest fear is history repeating itself\" regarding the press's treatment of Meghan and his experience with his mother.

\"I've seen what happens when someone I love is commoditised to the point that they are no longer treated or seen as a real person,\" Harry said earlier this month. \"I lost my mother and now I watch my wife falling victim to the same powerful forces.\"
