Meghan to Oprah: Kate apologised for making me cry. I have forgiven her. Kate is a "good person". I can see now what layers were at play there. They really seem to want a narrative of a hero and a villain. #OprahMeghanHarry
The second part started with Oprah and Meghan feeding chickens that she and Harry had rescued from a battery farm 🐔
💥Meghan: I have always worked. I have always valued independence. I have advocated for so long for women to use their voice. And then I was silent. Oprah: Were you silent or were you silenced? Meghan The latter. #OprahMeghanHarry
Meghan: It was all about how "it looked". I said 'Has anyone talked about how it feels because right now I couldn’t feel lonlier.'
On the Queen, Meghan said: I loved being in her company. She gave me some pearl earring and a matching necklace on the train to Chester. She has a blanket for warmth in the car and said 'Meghan come on – and she put it over my knees'
Meghan on when she was pregnant: We had in tandem the conversations of how he won't be given security And then Meghan says "there were also concerns and conversations about how dark his skin might be when he was born." Oprah says "What?"
On the whole Prince/Princess HRH thing for Archie, Meghan says the convention was actually being changed for their son. "The first baby of colour in this family". And Prince Harry's son would not be entitled to security. #OprahMeghanHarry
This is very strong and the Palace will face serious questions: Meghan: "There were concerns and conversations about how dark [Archie's] skin might be... Oprah: Who is having that conversation? M: That was relayed to me from Harry from conversations that family had with him
Meghan: It was only once we were married and everything started to worsen. Not only was I not being protected but they were willing to lie to protect other members of the family. But they were not willing to tell the truth to protect me and my husband #OprahMeghanHarry
Meghan says she contemplated suicide: "I was ashamed to say it at the time and ashamed to have to admit it to Harry. But I knew that if I didn’t say it – then I would do it. I just didn’t want to be alive anymore. That was clear and real and frightening and constant thought.
"I thought it would solve everything for everyone" said Meghan of her thought of suicide. I went to Human Resources but they said: "There is nothing we can do to help you because you are not a paid member of the institution." Meghan says: "Nothing was ever done."
Meghan says a senior Palace person said she couldn't get treatment because it would look bad: Meghan: "I went to one of the most senior people to get help. I was told I couldn't because it wouldn't be good for the institution."
