It’s been over a year since the Duke and Duchess of Sussex took a “step back” as senior members of the royal family, shocking the world as they seemingly left duty (and Harry’s family) behind in hopes for a new life. While the British tabloids were ruthless in their coverage of Meghan, the Duke and Duchess, aside from a few small appearances, were relatively silent in their transition. Now, as their status becomes official, Markle finally got to own her truth and story, setting the record straight with her husband by her side. Here are 5 shocking revelations from the Oprah with Meghan and Harry: A Primetime Special.
In a truly heartbreaking moment, Markle revealed to Oprah that she, “just didn’t want to be alive anymore,” while dealing with her isolation and unsupportive treatment inside the royal family. The story only got more upsetting when Markle revealed that she asked for help and was essentially turned away, saying, “I went to the institution, and I said that I needed to go somewhere to get help. I said, ‘I’ve never felt this way before,’ and that I needed to go somewhere, and I was told that I couldn’t. That it wouldn’t be good for the institution.”
According to the New York Times, Oprah, Meghan, and Harry earned 17.1 million viewers on CBS. 16.9 million viewers tuned in within the first hour and 17.3 in the second. The news outlet reported that the “audience was about twice the size of the viewership for the prime-time ratings winner in a given week.”
Although the viewership was high, the Times found the numbers did quite reach other exclusive interviews of the recent past. In 2018, 22 million people tuned into 60 Minutes with Anderson Cooper to watch Stormy Daniels dish on her alleged past affair with former President Donald Trump.
