Meghan Markle’s sensational claims on Oprah interview 

Meghan Markle claimed that the Royal Family weren't willing to 'tell the truth' to protect her and Prince Harry, but were willing to ‘lie’ to protect the other members of the family. Later, Oprah was in shock when Meghan told her that there were “concerns and conversations’ on how dark their first child’s skin might be. Meghan-Harry welcomed their first child, Archie Mountbatten-Windsor, on May 6, 2019.

Meghan also stated that being a divorcee and a mixed-race person was not something she was conscious about but started thinking of it as a factor ‘because they made me think about it.” She, however, clarified that the Queen was ‘always wonderful’ to her. 

Meghan Markle had got married to Prince Harry on November 27, 2017. In January 2020, it was announced that they were stepping back from their roles as members of the royal family and then shifted to California. Her pregnancy was announced last month and she also revealed in the interview that they were expecting a girl.
