There’s a new report that suggests Meghan Markle might not have told the truth and nothing but the truth during her tell-all interview with Oprah Winfrey last month.
While the Duchess of Sussex claims that she lived a very restricted life behind doors at Buckingham Palace, one royal biographer says that she was “out and about” and that she was given more freedom than what she alluded to in her interview with Oprah. Here’s what you need to know.
While Meghan might have said that she couldn’t leave the palace without permission, Princess Diana’s biographer Andrew Morton says that she did go out and that she lived a “normal life” during her time as a working royal. The 39-year-old also alleged she needed to ask permission just to do everyday things.
What Else Did Meghan Markle Lie About In Her Interview With Oprah?
Andrew Morton, who wrote ‘Diana: Her True Story – In Her Own Words’ in 1992, doesn’t think Meghan Markle lived a life similar to Princess Diana’s. Or at least not in the way Meghan described it.
“It was and it wasn’t,” the author replied. “When I was watching the interview, I was ticking off ‘yes, sense of isolation,’ ‘yes, sense of desperation’… exactly what Diana was saying to me.”
“But then again, well, friends of mine have seen Meghan walking from Whole Foods supermarket on Kensington High Street with bags of food back to Kensington Palace,” Morton claimed.
“It didn’t seem too much like a prison,” he alleged to the outlet. “Other friends have seen her out and about with friends at restaurants, so she seems, to me, to have led a normal life.”
Morton also pointed out that Meghan flew to New York in February of 2019 for her star-studded baby shower.
“So there’s some inconsistency but also a similarity with Diana as well,” he said. “It was a complex interview and it has left many unresolved questions.”
Yet, Meghan told Oprah that she had left the house twice in four months at one time while she and Harry were still in the UK.
“I am everywhere but I am nowhere,” Markle shared. “I continued to say to people, ‘I know there is an obsession with how things look but has anyone talked about how it feels? Because right now I could not feel lonelier.’”
