I bet you thought that no one ever says no to Oprah Winfrey, but Meghan Markle did. You see, before the actress became a Duchess, Winfrey asked her for a sitdown interview, but Buckingham Palace would not let her do it. In fact, Markle says that there were people listening to their telephone conversation to make sure that she turned down the offer.
Why did she say yes now? “Well, so many things. That we’re on the other side of a lot of…a lot of life experience that’s happened,” Markle told Oprah. “And also that we have the ability to make our own choices in a way that I couldn’t have said yes to you then. That wasn’t my choice to make. So, as an adult who lived a really independent life to then go into this construct that is…different than I think what people imagine it to be, it’s really liberating to be able to have the right and the privilege in some ways to be able to say yes.”
The rest of their unrestricted, 2-hour chat will air Sunday at 8p on CBS.
Be prepared for Markle to claim to be the victim. She isn’t. I bet you she wears the pants in their marriage, and Harry has to do whatever she says. I feel for him. I am sure he wanted a change, but I don’t think he wanted all of this. Hopefully, his family will take him back with open arms after he gets divorced. We all know they are going to get one eventually.
It would be nice if they could live happily ever after, but that only happens in fairy tales.
James Corden is close enough to Prince Harry that he went to his wedding to Meghan Markle. Therefore, when the Royal wanted a tour of LA, he called The Late Late Show host.
Corden picked up his buddy in a double-decker tour bus and went for a ride. On their outing, TAFKAP Harry revealed that why he left Britain. The press was too much for him and his wife. He felt that it wasn’t safe for them and their son, Archie, so he felt there was no other choice but to leave.
Even though he is no longer a working Royal, he will never stop living the life of public service. He made a lifelong commitment to that, and he never plans to quit that.
That makes him a Fresh Prince. What is even better, he knows the theme song to Fresh Prince and sang it when they visited the house.
They also visited a boot camp and got a workout. Although, Harry had no problem completing the course.
This was the perfect way for Harry to be introduced to America. We got to see what a laidback, warm person he really is. He is far from an uptight Royal. That is why we love Has so much. Oh yeah, that is Meghan’s name for him.
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have finally made a decision about their futures with the Royal Family. They have decided that they no longer want to work as British Royals.
Buckingham Palace released the below statement:
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have confirmed to Her Majesty The Queen that they will not be returning as working members of The Royal Family.
Following conversations with The Duke, The Queen has written confirming that in stepping away from the work of The Royal Family it is not possible to continue with the responsibilities and duties that come with a life of public service. The honorary military appointments and Royal patronages held by The Duke and Duchess will therefore be returned to Her Majesty, before being redistributed among working members of The Royal Family.
While all are saddened by their decision, The Duke and Duchess remain much loved members of the family.
While the former Royals had this to say:
As evidenced by their work over the past year, The Duke and Duchess of Sussex remain committed to their duty and service to the U.K. and around the world, and have offered their continued support to the organisations they have represented regardless of official role. We can all live a life of service. Service is universal.
The news was expected. It will be interesting how long they can actually afford to live this way. For Markle it is no different than what her life used to be like. However, it is a much different story for her husband. Freedom is fun at first, but then you want to go back to what you know. Will he be able to do that? Only time will tell.
Yesterday, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle announced that they are expecting their second child together. Today, CBS announced that Oprah Winfrey will be talking to the couple about that and so much more.
“Winfrey will speak with Meghan, The Duchess of Sussex, in a wide-ranging interview, covering everything from stepping into life as a Royal, marriage, motherhood, philanthropic work to how she is handling life under intense public pressure,” CBS wrote in a press released. “Later, the two are joined by Prince Harry as they speak about their move to the United States and their future hopes and dreams for their expanding family.”
The exclusive 90-minute special will air on March 7th.
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are celebrating their love together by announcing that they are expecting their second child together on Valentine’s Day.
Photographer Misan Harriman broke the happy news with “Meg, I was there at your wedding to witness this love story begin, and my friend, I am honoured to capture it grow. Congratulations to The Duke and Duchess of Sussex on this joyous news!”
He did not say how far along she is, but it looks like she is well into her second trimester.
The former Royals are already parents to Archie, 21 months.
