Meghan Markle and Prince Harry sat down for an explosive interview with Oprah Winfrey in 2021, where they made several accusations about the Royal Family and their treatment of the couple

Meghan Markle pulled no punches in recalling the lack of support she and Prince Harry felt from King Charles and Queen Camilla during their bombshell chat with Oprah Winfrey back in 2021.

After rumours swirled that Meghan had left Kate Middleton in tears over a dispute about Princess Charlotte’s bridesmaid gown, Meghan revealed to Oprah she was “silenced” and not “protected” by The Firm.

To Oprah, Meghan confessed: “That was hard to reconcile because it was only once we were married and everything started to really worsen that I came to understand that not only was I not being protected, but that they were willing to lie to protect other members of the family.”

In response to these allegations, Meghan tersely stated in just 13 words: “They weren’t willing to tell the truth to protect me and my husband.”

During her pregnancy with their daughter, Meghan also aired grievances about a family member who raised “concerns and conversations” regarding how dark their son Archie’s skin might be before his arrival in 2019. .

The Duchess of Sussex hinted that the relentless Brit press scrutiny was not only unmerciful but drove her to entertain suicidal thoughts. Meanwhile, on Meghan’s behalf, a pained Prince Harry said: “no one from my family ever said anything” about the press’s racist treatment towards Meghan—a silence he found deeply hurtful, reports the Express.

In terms of making peace with the royals, Harry disclosed during the 2021 conversation that there had been no moves from any family members to repair the rift.

The couple, who had withdrawn from Royal duties a year before their explosive interview with Oprah, now live in California. Meghan and Harry, still largely distanced from the Royal family, share their home with their five year old son Archie and three year old daughter Lilibet.
