The internet is still reverberating from the bombshell Oprah Winfrey interview of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle in Sunday’s CBS Primetime Special.
The revelation that conversations took place within the royal family about how dark baby-boy Archie’s skin could be before his birth was only one of the night’s stunning moments.
“We have in tandem the conversation of ‘He won’t be given security. He’s not going to be given a title,’” Markle told Winfrey, “and also concerns and conversations about how dark his skin might be when he’s born.”
The media mogul’s facial expression betrayed her shock at the revelation, and she responded only, “What?” When pressed, Markle — then Prince Harry, when he joined them — both declined to state who initiated the conversation. Winfrey later noted that it was not Queen Elizabeth or Prince Philip.
A day after the interview, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex shared a photo of Archie via their friend, photographer Misan Harriman. “What wonderful news to celebrate on International Women’s Day! Congratulations my friends, and welcome to the #girldad club H,” Harriman wrote, adding a heart emoji.
She and Prince Harry announced Sunday night that they are expecting a daughter this summer.
