"Rude and racist are NOT the same." Well said.

Remember people ... just because your rich doesn’t mean your happy

Harry said after fight with William he immediately calls his therapist. But Megs was suicidal there was no one to help her!

With Harry's denial of racism...... this did not age well

He protected his wife the way his father NEVER DID for Diana! And Prince Harry did what he needed to protect his son - AGAIN, that Charles lacked the courage to do! Brave Prince Harry & bravo Meghan for fighting for yourself & your family.

Harry was done when his mother died.

You're trapped in a palace? Billions are trapped in houses they have paid X3 over and don't even own them! Most people today can't even afford a running car. Intrusion is the price you pay for a life of luxury. If you don't like intrusion, go live in a 30 sq. meter house, but you won't. That's what happens when you equate money with happiness. You can live more than comfortably but somehow you feel more empty than ever. "All looks and little substance" is all you are about, even to this day.

"Harry is adjusting great to America" "I keep driving on the wrong side of the road"

Who came here only to read the comments?

Their child would have been raised in this culture. They made an extremely hard but necessary decision.

Hold on a minute... "cut off?" no you left your job... you dont get paid if you arent working for the crown. Do you people not get how it works?

As a African American I'm so tired hearing about race 😥

"Rude and Racist are not the same!" Exactly

they are choosing their words extremely carefully

If Megan is crying out for help no matter if she's right or wrong, I think it speaks volumes that her husband has done whatever he's had to do to protect his wife and mother of his children, including turning his back on HIS ROYAL FAMILY. Whatever anyone thinks, that's brave to me. Kuddos for protecting your family.

Harry says his brother is trapped too...also he says he cannot speak for his brother...What?

Most people in a toxic environment don’t know or even acknowledge they are in one. That’s the danger and the problem

Money is not everything; I’m glad they clarified the question about “privacy.” I thought people would understand that everyone needs and deserves privacy and how that’s different from intrusion

Harry, in my opinion, did what he had to do to be healthy. He saw what happened to his mother, and that experience has informed him in a very potent way. At the same time he understands the bubble that his family is in and the resistance they have to seeing anything outside the bubble. It’s heartbreaking for all of them.

How was he trapped? He had the money his mother left him, and his career in the military. He had options in the UK not to be a working royal if he was consistent. Running away to US, never stopped the UK media and social media globally from bombarding them. What did an interview with Oprah solve? What is talked about *across the world* is the inconsistencies in their character, family relationships and personal values of the couple. It is not what Harry says in this interview is being talked about.

He look just like his mom i can see her coming out he did what his mom should have did a looooooog time ago she would have been alive to enjoy her grand babies rip Princess Diana and be strong Harry

Diana was treated the same way when she wanted, needed a divorce.

Harry said they didn’t use racist the press did, but Meg says racism and rude in interview.

It seemed that he was forced to by Megan to say what he was saying she didn’t even let him talked

On another note: Some of you act like you never married or got into a relationship that you thought would be one thing and turned into another GTFOH.

"rude and racist are not the same." Aint that the truth...

the amount of people condoning and excusing racism in the comment section is baffling. i know meghan and harry have so many other stories that expose that family's racism but are holding it in.

Harry looks so uncomfortable listening to her ridiculous remarks. She is doing the wrong thing by being on this show.

“Rude and racist are not the same”. Meghan Markle 2021. 💯

So sad. They're just a young couple wanting to raise their children in the kind of home and with the values they want to. I can't imagine calling my family the "institution".

I have 2 children from over 2 decades ago, my wife has pretty pure white skin (except when she has spent a few week’s in a fast tan salon). I myself have a natural tan even though I’m born & bred in the UK. My wife’s family & my own family conjectured whether or not my children would be born with a little tan or not. There was absolutely NO RACISM, it was a genuine question because most people born & bred in the UK have pink/white skin. I have no relatives abroad which could account for my slight tan that I’m aware of, II’m naturally tanned & I cannot explain this in a more simpler way. It is totally innocent for both sides of a family to wonder what skin tone a new born child may have when the mother is pure white & the father is white but naturally tanned. Why on earth would anyone at all call it racism. My children we’re both born with my tan👍 8 year’s apart & never once been on the end of racism. Both side’s of our families love them anyway, they are both healthy & strong & intelligent, what more could a loving parent ask for???

It surprised me when he said history is repeating itself. He meant that the system was too controlling and it also reminded me of Diana's situation

Harry has always been different like not apart of the “machine” always free spirited. I think he never wanted that Iife like .

Harry is the husband that charles NEVER was to Diana

I think when Harry hooked up with Megan that was the biggest mistake of his life she has ripped his family apart ripped him from his family and has lied and lied and lied and lied to no end Harry needs to get a grip he needs to get his children and make things right with his family

To whine in public about your family is disgraceful….

I still believe there is Waaaay more going on here, even with this interview.

One of the comments I saw from another video : “prince Harry is becoming the husband and father princess Diana needed but never got “

The lack of support towards the Sussexes by the RF is horrendous. They would not even acknowledge privately that something is wrong with the way Meghan is being treated. Saying the victim should remain silent citing privacy issues is crap. Silencing the victim is the biggest advantage of the abuser, be it a system, organization or person. RACISM is an uncomfortable conversation to have especially with people who benefit from white privilege for generations, but if no one steps out of their comfort zone and have the tough talk nothing will change. What I get from the RF response to Harry is tough luck, deal with it, we told you not to fall in love and marry a black woman. That's EVIL ON EVERY LEVEL. Their actions tells me the RF never accepted Meghan in the first place their PRESENTATION (not SUPPORT) on H & M wedding day is their usual facade, acting to look good infront of the camera, inside they are cold and indifferent. After that they went right back to work harder TO BREAK UP THE MARRIAGE.

“Harry is adjusting great to America” “Why does everyone have more guns than the British Army”

Harry, like a man, father and good husband, is protecting his family. Something his father refused to do. I think they are an amazing couple.

Be not of this world nor the things in it for the world is passing away.

I also wonder what harry thought about that statement. his own mother went through a lot of pain and it certainly was not because of her color!

This is only an Americans perspective the UK is not the same as the United States. Tradition for the monarchy in the UK is part of their government and cannot be changed. The United States and our presidents are chosen by the people. Painting a whole nation as racist is not a wise move. The US is painted as having gun control problems as well as racism. It’s not difficult for Americans to understand that a monarchy does not conform they adapt to change. As an American born and raised, Meghan knew the protocol in place of the Royal Family and she did not want to follow the protocol. Yes British press was harsh towards her and it’s unfortunate she went through this, but it’s obvious that life as a Royal born or married into is not a fairytale. It’s a job that requires duty not wearing a tiara.

Harry was looked so worried here when Megan was talking lol

They have permission for this interview, that’s the difference e in terms of privacy. And they deserve to be heard. For the palace to have conversations about their son’s skin tone! My jaw dropped. That’s just disgusting behavior. I hope they are happy and at peace now and can move forward with their new family in America.

She didn't even stay for five minutes before crying about how bad she had been treated how suicidal she was ... This woman is a piece of work🤔🤔🥺 she is almost trying to make Harry believe she is his mom. At first I thought no nobody would do that but .......🤔🤔🤔🤔after reading what she has said and done you can't help but compare it to Princess Diana.. considering Markle didn't know anything about the royal family 🤣🤣 then who the flip does she think she is copying. Shes even tried to say the press has targeted her well yes she mimicked an interview to Oprah which Diana did do but the truth has come out about that.. I'm sorry but this woman needs teaching a lesson. She can turn her back on her family but you DO NOT TURN YOUR BACK ON A COUNTRY unless you don't really care😟🙂🙄

Just admit that you could not handle it! My goodness!!😑

Rest in peace Diana please protect your Son and grandchildren

I’d like to see Oprah interview his uncle prince Andrew - now that would be a lot more interesting

Rachel and Henry have made it about race.

These two complained about wanting privacy--even moved to America to supposedly get it--yet they've constantly given interviews, photo ops, and more. Their constant attempt to stay relevant is absolutely cringe-worthy.

The institution is a damn cult.

Prince Harry’s security was removed...... meanwhile, Andrew’s security is fully operational.

See how cold she became towards Harry when he spoke.

Charles didn't experience bad press? Really. He still suffers in the press about the break-up of his relationship with Princess Diana.

The Royal family need to get their heads out of the sand.. And realize we are not living in the 50's anymore and step up and protect all of your family members not just the likes of Andrew and Camilla BADALACK that hurt Diana so much..

He knew history repeats and he took necessary decision to safeguard his family. Palace never expected though.

no matter what someone's family does or says, separating from them is a very painful thing. I understand that Harry is speaking his truth but he is going to regret doing it on such a large scale. Especially if this marriage doesn't endure.

Harry is adjusting just great to America. Harry : People here touch football with hands

Oprah looking like a villain from the hunger games with those glasses

"The father and brother being trapped" That said a lot right there.

My niece had a mixed race baby recently. BOTH sides of the family talked about the babies skin. We were simply speculating about what she would look like, what her personality would be, etc... But it's interesting that one side of the family would be called racist for doing the same thing the other side of the family was doing. Both sides would joke and tease each other about if her hair would be red like our side, if she would have green eyes, etc.

I will give Harry & Meghan the benefit of the doubt that they genuinely do not understand or comprehend why they are not portrayed in a good light. First, H &M promote a mission and vision dedicated to charitable causes, helping others, making a positive impact as well as making a difference within the community. Yet, the family of four live in an enormous mansion. It doesn’t look so good to be overly extravagant and lavish while promoting your charity’s organization. They are living in a state the houses the infamous skid row. Sadly, they have many empty rooms available while at the same time there are so many people that do not have a roof over their head and are succumbed to the daily elements? Philanthropists views and ideas do not coincide with your over-the- top lifestyle. How much money is wasted every single day maintaining an over abundant and extravagant lifestyle? Is it really necessary to live in such an enormous mansion when homelessness continues to be a major problem and struggle for so many. Does it make sense to maintain a pool, brook, and sprawling green landscape in a drought ridden state that is susceptible to wildfires? Isn’t it hypocritical to utilize private jets to attend engagements & speak on topics regarding climate control? We each are entitled to live out the lifestyle we want. However, in the case of H & M, their actions speak louder than words - making the public become skeptical and question motives. Announcing in a Press Release the intent to become ‘financially independent’ sends a message that money is your motive and driving force. I believe the reason people are so critical now is because H & M have chosen the spotlight to promote their brand and charitable causes. With any career in the public eye you can expect some backlash. It is part of the package. Unfortunately, in H & M’s case it is beyond what is typical. It is understandable why their brand is tarnished and why so many people have turned against them. I truly believe they set out with good intentions, but they got caught up in the hustle & bustle along the way and sadly..their brand is ‘chaos’.

As a British resident for 25 years I remember watching in amazement as Meghan Markle was welcomed into the royal family. The welcome tours she and Harry did in England, Wales, Ireland and Scotland where thousands came to greet and welcome her. A first for any royal bride to be. Her invitations to Christmas and other royal activities pre-marriage, a first for any royal bride to be. I remember the wedding which broke with royal traditions with significant nods to her black heritage and who can forget Prince Charles walking her down the aisle and the compassion he showed to her mother. I remember the newspaper reports that the queen had assigned her most trusted aides to her to help her transition to royal life. I remember the British tabloids heralding Markle Sparkle and modernization of the British Monarchy. The formation of the fabulous four working on Mental Health ( albeit with no doubt that William and Kate were rightfully top bill). This all happened with the backdrop of Meghans family providing negative interviews about her in the press and details of her life and treatment of others being made public for the first time. Then once married, I watched as Meghan did things her way: her constant holding of hands and Harry, while they were at work representing the queen (for anyone about to object, this is not likely to happen with a married couple who share a business when dealing with clients). I saw her and Harry move away from the Fabulous Four, as they felt they were not getting enough coverage, create their own social media and causes. I saw them hire their own PR teams, and with as many as 7 articles about them on yahoo per day it was clear that this team was clearly put to work. I remember their discussions on climate change while travelling mainly on private planes. I remember her holding her bump constantly in a way that detracted from anything else being said or done at an event. I remember them being booed on the night in question at the Royal Albert Hall (probably why she was crying when the lights were off). I remember their break with tradition of Lindo wing (ps photographers were waiting for that photoop no one had to ask you to ask for that picture). I remember them controlling the birth announcement of Archie which contradicted with timing with the Palaces announcement. I remember that no official picture, interview or display to the press was given when Archie was born (until much later). The public was left to speculate about whether he had red hair, what shade he was (yes even black people were keen to know). Then I remember their exit and their wish to pursue financial independence and the RF insistence that you are either in our out All of this shows that these two people have done it their way from start to finish and were allowed to make many of their own decisions. The fact the many of these decisions were faulty and diminished their poularity is on them. In the desire of wanting and having their own privacy, they have called in camera crews to watch them lay wreaths on soldiers graves, they have collaborated on a book , they have announced their miscarriage, they have announced pregnancy. In fact their one goal is to create a brand that would eclipse William and Kate. When all else failed they double down on explosive claims of racism and mental health. All press is good press to stay relevant. While there may be elements of unconscious bias in the royal family, as there are in all organisations, I do not believe it rises to the level of racism. While insensitive comments can be made, they were made within a family and which one of us has not had that happen in our family. I truly hope this is their last word on this matter. They would do well to find a real cause and message. Bashing your family is not a sustainable option. I forgot to mention I am BLACK.

I worked as a chauffeur for a number of years. I can confirm that many „regular“ folk can’t seem to understand that „VIPs“ are human beings, too. Just because someone is extremely rich and/or a „celebrity“ does NOT mean people should be disregarding their human dignity, not giving them privacy, pretending as if they can’t have needs, vulnerabilities etc..

Seriously - we should NOT be surprised at anything the couple speaks. We all know & knew all along.

She treats him like he is a puppet and he acts like a puppet she tells him what to do what to do what to say and how to say it just in to ensure that she tries to embarrass the real family and she has done a pretty good job at it thus far I think that she is jealous of the Royal Family I think she is jealous of Williams wife knowing she could never be anything like them and definitely not in the same class so she is going way out of her way to downgrade his family and try to embarrass them and accuse them of things that she is making up and Harry is sitting back like a puppet and allowing her to do this his mother would turn over in her grave that is not how she raced them

With the amount of money they have you'd think they would go away somwhere else more private, not moving to LA. If I had that much money I'd be GONE, not on Oprah.

She's not a Dark skinned woman, so I'm not sure why the family would think that the baby would be born Dark or Darker skin.. makes no sense 🤔

MM had her daggers out for the royal family a long time ago! I hope the whole monarchy will just ignore these 2 people from now on. Let them live their lifes in America and do not give them any further attention, especially on social media.

And they came to America to escape racism! 😂

Always remember racism is taught. It was taught from generation to generation. Not just through families but through the media, education etc..

When is Oprah going to interview her friend Harvey Weinstein?

she waited seven years for trevor? who is she kidding. and waitlist probably helped and is a good reason they have a strong relationship.

My teachers taught me that truth always hurt. Some of these teachers are no longer around.

Such hard lives these rich elite people lead...

Omg how long are cbs going to drag this on for, don’t they have any real news? just show us the interview, we can decide all on our own

As black British man everything they say about the royals family is true,they are head of my island but yet not many blacks work in the royal household.

This was a really low moment for Oprah

I cant believe it, we were just talking about his mom. Now this, if any of the Dukes die, it will be war....

think harry is doing the right thing

It’s all about money! Just say it.

I’m sure princess Diana would be so proud of her boy 🙏 Brave and fought for himself and his family. He definitely got his mother’s personality ! 🥺

Agreed. “Rude & racism” definitely not the same!

What happens if she splits from him? Hes basically fkd

Few years from now, Oprah and Harpo productions will be issuing an apology declaring that the interview with H&M was a mistake

looks strange, when you feel hurt but you still expect the title & protection from the royal family. You just came, but you want everything the way you want it. no good drama

Oprah's comment "I'm surprised they were telling me about it" in other words she is not surprised about the racism she knows goes on every day in the world, especially and mostly in white countries against blacks. She didn't expect the racism story to actually come out and it was a surprised her. That's just my opinion though.

anyone who's a person of color - still want to raise your daughters to be princesses? look at the harsh realities. meghan is lucky harry is such a supportive husband and concerns about his family. imagine if he lacks the spine and stayed in the role...

I bet even Oprah won't answer the door to them now though!😂😂😂

As a Brit the overall reaction to Meghan was so positive. The British public have not done this...I saw no racism in the British portrayal of Meghan.Everyone is so fond of Harry and wanted him to be happy and even wanted him to be free to do what he wants. I'm not saying she never came across any racism but it wasnt in the newspapers, I didnt see it online or in the magazines so the British public feel like what have we done wrong?? I'm not saying there wasnt racism there but what I'm saying is we struggling as the public to find it..... The tables started to turn on Meghan when it came out she was a bit of a prima Donna at the tennis and that didnt go down well then the way it all went down with her dad.....even the fact she had nobody but celebs on her side at the wedding and her poor mum who seemd to be all by herself didnt turn the public until it came apparent they wanted all the perks of senior payed for royals but not the actual work that goes with it. And at the same time preach about the environment and our footprint when people have lost a lot this year and feel that being told to cut down on our carbon footprints when its them taking private jets. Thats when it turned sour for the public. The interview I felt bad for them at times and everybody should be able to.speak their truth but a lot doesnt add up and the timing was just awful. Why not wait a bit after all she said that they are now happier than any fairytale so what's the rush? Oh and we all.know how televised royal interviews go....fergie...diana.....Andrew....did they not see the backlash coming? And while pregnant? It's all a bit weird.

I think harry is doing the right thing/ he wants not to be destroyed like his mom was.

Somehow he was raised well! Proud of him as a human being period.

I am confused why Meghan continues to use that horrible racist title on her books, web etc,,,,Duchess of Sussex

From the start, I knew because of race, there was a rocky road a head. They truly love each other. This is not a prank or game. They really love each other, you can see it in the way that they look at each other, the way that they touch each other, even the most simple way. I wish them the very best.

Being straight up, it's always the people who arent black/brown and Don't have to deal with racism who rush to silence anyone who tries to talk about their experience. "Racism isnt real, shut up." I've been told, to my face, that actual racist situations and events are "just someone's opinion" and "bound to happen, racism will never disappear." The bystanders who allow it to happen are responsible for the perpetuation of racism at this point.

I hope they never "crash their car" "accidentally". Or getting " Epsteined"

I find this whole story extremely sketchy.

There is a reason their "favorability" rating has sunken to a new all-time low.
