In a two-hour soul-baring interview with Oprah Winfrey, the couple painted a deeply unflattering picture of life inside the royal household, depicting a cold, uncaring institution that they had to flee to save their lives.
The pair, known as the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, announced they were quitting royal duties last year, citing what they said were the unbearable intrusions and racist attitudes of the British media. That split became official earlier this year, and the interview was widely seen as their first opportunity to explain their decision.
"Whether for the sake of Britain or for the sake of the younger royals this rotten institution needs to go," Graham Smith of the campaign group said. "Some people will say `well you would say that,' but this interview has only served to highlight what a lot of people have known for years: The monarchy is rotten to the core and does not reflect British values.?
The couple had faced severe criticism in the United Kingdom during the run-up to the interview. Prince Philip, Harry's 99-year-old grandfather, is in a London hospital after recovering from a heart procedure, and critics saw the decision to go forward as being a burden on the queen -- even though, CBS, rather that Harry and Meghan, dictated the timing of the broadcast.
Meghan -- then known as Meghan Markle, who had starred on the American TV legal drama "Suits" -- married Harry, a grandson of Queen Elizabeth II, at Windsor Castle in May 2018. Their son, Archie, was born the following year.
So were these bombshells in the latest book? Does anyone know / read the book
For the many fragile damaged psyches in the world every word, text, grievance, ask, question, criticism, slight, look, picture, book, statue, movie/TV, video is seen as racism. This interview by Prince Harry & Meghan is nothing but an exercise in whine without any cheese served.
CTVAtlantic It’s nice that we are at a spot now that this stupid stuff that doesn’t matter is what’s considered disrespectful instead of Trump making a racist comment about minorities every second day that everyone just got numb to. It’s like we got transported back to 2008 again.
Sometimes it is hard to hear the truth..
This is not a good look for the monarchy & the British society that supports it. M&H's interview shines a light on the 'vulturism' of British tabloids & readership alike, cruelty served with a stiff-upper lip, victim-shaming, classism & class jealousy, racism, & America-hating.
Hypocrites Did not want Media attention yet Harry no balls and Megan house wrecker sold themselves for Just that for 8 million $ shameful
I've deliberately avoided watching. Disagreements happen in all families, even royal ones, and some people are on the right side, others on the wrong side. But that doesn't allow one side to do a 2-hour trash-a-thon in public. Families should wash their dirty linen in private.
Hi your Girl Victoria Arbiter over here losing credibility by the minute.
I thought the Royals hadn’t said or commented at all on this interview.
I don’t care about them or about Royal family news Why should we waste our time knowing how they live! Holly Shishkabab 🤷♀️😁
They should do a counter interview if they care about their reputation? And if they don't, why is that? 🤔
Sad anyone would not preserve precious family relationship. Meghan has challenges in her own ..now spreading. Harry supports his family..regardless of being set up..Meghan trying to recreate Diana story in herself..wanted the Royal spotlight. Didn't get it-call shameful Oprah.
Royalty is an arm of the tabloid business - they funnel taxpayer money to the tabloids.
Really easy to attack a target that won’t sling their horseshit back at them. The Queen has more class in her pinky that these two combined.
Rich liberal elites 🤮🤮🤮🤮
Whoop-dee-doo...
So the Royal Family only eats white babies , big deal
They’re all a bunch of spoiled brats. It’s the 21st century. Time to come out of the Stone Age and get rid of the Monarchy. Work like everyone else!!
Unfortunately their side of the story will never be revealed since they don't air their dirty laundry...as it should be.
“But Harry revealed he currently has a poor relationship with William and said things got so bad with his father that at one point Prince Charles stopped taking his calls.” If he was my son or brother I think our relationship would be poor also.
Drama queen looking to make some money.
Charles not taking Harrys calls .... after all Charles alleges he went through for his happiness with Camilla ... being Royal is a dog eat dog world - I got mine you get your own
No one will ever know the truth. We believe what we want to believe.
Megan deserves an Oscar
The revenge of the gold digger!!!! She really is a good actress!
Hmm.. so, Operah is still hosting a tv show. I guess MeToo was just a sensational temporary sexist movement.
