LONDON (Reuters) - What did we learn from the interview between Queen Elizabeth’s grandson Prince Harry and Meghan - the Duke and Duchess of Sussex - and U.S. chat show host Oprah Winfrey?

For quotes from the interview:
1) DARK SKIN
Meghan said an unidentified member of the British royal family made comments about how dark Archie, their son, would be. She refused to say who made the remarks. Harry said he would never disclose who said it.
Meghan said the royal family refused to make Archie a prince. Harry said no member of the family spoke out against racist articles about Meghan.
2) SUICIDE
Meghan said she was so miserable as a royal that she considered suicide and self harm. She wiped away tears.
She said she pleaded for help from the family but none was given. “I just didn’t want to be alive any more,” she said.
3) PRINCE CHARLES REFUSED TO TAKE SON’S CALLS
Prince Harry said his father Prince Charles, heir to the British throne, refused to take his calls at one point during the split.
“I feel really let down because he’s been through something similar. He knows what the pain feels like,” Harry said of his father. “I will always love him, but there’s a lot of hurt that’s happened.”
4) KATE MADE ME CRY
Meghan denied newspaper reports that she had made Kate, the wife of Prince William, cry. Meghan said it was Kate who made her cry before the 2018 wedding over the dresses for the flower girls.
5) PALACE LIES
Meghan said unidentified people in the Palace “were willing to lie to protect other members of the family. But they weren’t willing to tell the truth to protect me and my husband.”
6) HISTORY REPEATS ITSELF?
Harry said his biggest concern was that history would repeat itself - a reference to the death of his mother Diana who was killed in a 1997 crash as her car sped away from chasing photographers.
7) ROYALS CUT US OFF
Harry said his family had cut him off financially and that he had used money left to him by Diana. He said he was particularly hurt that security had been denied to him and his family.
“I think she (Diana) would feel very angry with how this has panned out and very sad. But ultimately, all she’s ever wanted is for us to be happy,” Harry said.
8) QUEEN ELIZABETH II
Harry said he had not blindsided Queen Elizabeth, his grandmother, with news of his split with the family.
Meghan said the queen “has always been wonderful to me.”
9) CHARLES AND WILLIAM ARE ‘TRAPPED’
Harry said Prince Charles and Prince William were trapped in the monarchy.
“I was trapped but I didn’t know I was trapped,” Harry said. “Like the rest of my family are, my father and my brother, they are trapped. They don’t get to leave.” 10) MARRIED THREE DAYS BEFORE
Meghan said the pair were married in a secret private ceremony three days before the official ceremony on May 19, 2018, in Windsor Castle.
11) BABY GIRL
The couple revealed that their second child, with whom Meghan is pregnant, is a girl.

The Royal Family does sit at the autocratic head of a country profoundly guilty of racism and acts reeking of white supremacy.
Piers Morgan is an arrogant, conservative dick
Companies That Get ‘Woke’ Aren’t Going Broke — They’re More Profitable Than Ever Sorry, Kid Rock, Bud Light's gonna be just fine April 8, 2023 [...] Always hostile to corporate initiatives that have a whiff of affirmative action, conservatives were predictably incensed to learn in 2021 that United Airlines planned for half of its incoming pilot trainees to be women and/or people of color. Piers Morgan sneered that they’d try to recruit blind pilots next, “to tick another pathetic virtue-signaling box.” Tucker Carlson whined that United execs were “ideologues, suffering from an incurable brain disease called ‘wokeness,'” arguing that they no longer prioritized pilot ability or passenger safety. https://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/read_msg.aspx?message_id=171688464
[...]Why Rupert Murdoch Is Finally Done with Donald Trump A politician on the wane is of little value to the media mogul. [...]“The 2024 field is rich. You have Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, former UN ambassador Nikki Haley … the list goes on. All candidates who embrace conservative policies without the preoccupations of the Don.” P - Ten days later, Murdoch retainer Piers Morgan wrote a New York Post column explicitly urging Republicans to junk Donald for Ronald. Fox News has tilted ever so slightly against the Trump line in recent weeks, with news anchor Bret Baier acknowledging that the hearings made Trump “look horrific” and that Trump’s inaction was “very telling.” https://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/read_msg.aspx?message_id=169494881
It sorta was Coni, .. would have liked to hear more and less talking over - issues seem clear to me. Piers makes a few good points but mostly a dick not listening or appreciating nuance.
Check out this shot across the bow of the Liberal Left 2:38 to 3:10 takes a shot at left leaning people from the late 60s - do we know any here? ;).
Brand early on says he disagrees with most everything "cultural" with Tucker but..
