British Royal News says that Meghan Markle realized back in 2019 during her trip to Africa that her mental health was declining as a royal. The former actress made the revelation during Netflix’s Harry and Meghan docuseries. Here’s what you need to know.
Meghan admitted in the doc that she just wasn’t feeling royal life six months after she had given birth to her son, Archie. And while their time spent in South Africa was successful and generated a lot of good publicity for the royal family, it was short-lived when the UK media negatively reported on Meghan’s interview with Tom Bradby for Harry and Meghan: An African Journey.
Meghan Markle Admits 2019 Africa Trip Was A Turning Point – Duchess Realized Her Mental Health Was Deteriorating As A Royal
Bradby had asked Meghan how her mental health was, and she responded that the months of bullying had taken a toll. Public reaction was supportive, with #WeLoveYouMeghan trending on Twitter; however, the response in the UK and the rest of the royal family was not.
“It was a huge turning point. It’s when we started having harder conversations about what needs to happen for us to be able to continue to make this work,” Meghan says before the episode ends.
In the docuseries, much focus in Harry and Meghan is also placed on media intrusion, with Prince Harry once again saying that his greatest fear was “history repeating itself” as he talks about the death of his mother, Princess Diana. Harry’s concern at comments made relating to Meghan Markle’s mixed-race heritage was a major element of the interview with Oprah Winfrey.
As many royal fans can recall, during the Oprah interview Harry and Meghan basically threw the entire royal family under the bus when they suggested that there was a royal racist behind the scenes. If that weren’t enough, Meghan corrected a rumor that suggested she had made Kate Middleton cry a few days before her royal wedding to Harry back in 2018. Meghan said that the opposite had actually happened and that it was Kate who made her cry instead.
