Prince Harry and Meghan Markle revealed some shocking details in an sensational interview, their first-ever since stepping down from official royal duties last year. In the interview, Meghan accused the British Royal family of obsessing over how dark her son Archie's skin would be. She revealed that the family members had conversations with Prince Harry before Archie's birth and had concerns about the baby's skin colour. She claimed the Royal Family did not want him to be a Prince or offer him security because they were concerned about how "dark his skin might be when he's born".
During the interview, Meghan said, "In those months when I was pregnant... we have in tandem the conversation of 'he won't be given security, he's not going to be given a title' and also concerns and conversations about how dark his skin might be when he's born. Those were conversations the family had with him." The couple during the interview announced that they are set to welcome their second child – a girl. They added that their daughter is due in “summertime.”
During the interview, Meghan talked about battling suicidal thoughts and Pince Harry's painful rift with his father. While discussing the negative media coverage she faced as part of being a member of the royal family, she claims that the British press pushed her to a point where she felt her life unworthy. She said, "I knew that if I didn't say it, that I would do it. And I... just didn't want to be alive anymore. And that was a very clear and real and frightening constant thought."
Meghan even said that the palace didn't support her when she approached them for help during a mental health crisis. She said, "I went to one of the most senior people just to -- to get help," and added, "I was told that I couldn't, that it wouldn't be nice for the institution."
