Prince Harry’s mental health documentary series The Me You Can’t See has finally been released.

Executive produced by the Duke of Sussex and Oprah Winfrey, the five-episode series features honest discussions about mental health from celebrities such as Glenn Close and Lady Gaga.

The show has prompted a number of shocking revelations, including the “Born This Way” singer speaking for the first time about being raped by a record producer when she was 19.
