Meghan made the surprising statement in a lengthy interview New York periodically The cut which was published on Monday. Asked by interviewer Alison P. Davis about her relationship with her own estranged father, Meghan tells Davis: “Harry said to me, ‘I lost my dad in the process.’ It doesn’t have to be the same for them as it was for me, but that’s his decision.” Journalist Omid Scobie, who is often seen as the Sussexes’ mouthpiece, later suggested that Meghan’s comment was actually about estrangement from her father. Meghan also said that she and Harry had to leave the British royal family because, “just by existing, we were upsetting the dynamics of the hierarchy”, while Harry claimed that his family members are unable to live and to work together. However, the part of the interview most likely to irritate the royals is when Davis explains their thinking behind their initial push to stay in the royal family but earn their own money. Davies writes that the couple thought they could soften criticism by not taking public money and leaving the UK Meghan was quoted as saying: “So what… because just by existing, we were disrupting the hierarchy dynamic. So we go, “Okay, okay, let’s get out of here. Fortunately.” Meghan told Davis that the deal they wanted was not “reinventing the wheel” and apparently named “a handful of princes and princesses and dukes” who have just that deal. But Megan says: “That, for whatever reason, is not something we’ve been allowed to do, even though a lot of other family members do exactly that.” In the interview, Meghan also criticized the racism of the British media, saying: “Why would I give people who call my children the N-word a picture of my child before I can share it with the world that you love my child?. .. Tell me how it makes sense and then I’ll play this game.” She also said that at a premiere of The Lion King, a South African cast member told her: “I just want you to know: When you married into this family, we cheered in the streets the same way we did when Mandela was released from prison.” In the track, which Meghan gave to promote her new podcast Archetypes, the Duchess also reveals that she plans to return to social media, saying: “I’m coming back… to Instagram.” Much of the interview took place at the royals’ home in Montecito, California, which Meghan says they initially decided against considering because they couldn’t afford it. That changed when they signed a reported $25 million deal with Spotify and a reported $100 million deal with Netflix. She says one of the things that drew her home were two giant palm trees on the front lawn, saying, “One of the first things my husband saw when we walked in the house were these two palm trees… See how it’s connected at the bottom? He goes, “Honey, it’s us.” And now every day, when Archie walks past us, he says, “Hi, Mom. Hi, papa.’ “ Harry makes a few appearances in the interview, at one stage talking about needing to fix the plumbing in the house. Elsewhere, Davies visits their “shared home office” and Harry says, “Most people I know, and a lot of my family, can’t work and live together.” Davies writes that Harry “reports family with a vocal eye.” He adds that the couple deny they’re doing a ‘reality show’, but then quotes Meghan as saying: ‘The part of my life that I haven’t been able to share, that people haven’t been able to see, is our love story. .” Asked if what they’re “shooting right now is a documentary about their love story,” Megan says, “What’s so funny is that I’m not trying to be snarky… I’m not reading any type. So I don’t know what’s been confirmed… When the media has shaped the story around you, it’s really nice to be able to tell your own story.” Asked if Harry “feels isolated” being away from his family, Meghan replied: “Well, look, we’re both building a community… I didn’t have any friends up here.” She adds of herself and Harry: “We’re like salt and pepper. We always move together.” The interview also teases future contributors to the Archetypes podcast saying that “tags” to be explored include: Old Maid, Dragon Lady, Bimbo, Crazy, Angry Black Woman and Bitch. Guests will be Constance Wu, Issa Rae, Lisa Ling, Margaret Cho and Ziwe. Meghan also discussed returning to her former home, Frogmore Cottage in Windsor, earlier this summer during the Queen’s Jubilee celebrations, saying: “You go back and open drawers and you’re like Oh my God. Was that what I was writing in my diary there? And here are all my socks from this season?“ She says of her time as king: “I was an actress. My whole job was “Tell me where to stand. Tell me what to say. Tell me how to say it. Tell me what to wear and I will.’ And I’ll show up early and probably bake something for the crew.” The interview reads: “In her own analysis, her problems stemmed from being an American, not necessarily a black American, she explains. Her desire to ask a lot of questions and never get involved with anything she couldn’t completely control seemed to violate an unspoken social norm.” In one segment of the interview, Davis goes to school with Megan. She writes: “At a traffic light, she reaches into the trunk and pulls out a brand new black backpack and hands it to her security detail to give to a stray man on the corner. They teach Archie that some people live in big houses, some live in small ones, and that some people are in between houses. They were making pass out kits with water and peanut butter crackers and granola bars. “I ate one!” Archie contributes.” Asked if “there’s room for forgiveness between her and her in-laws and her family,” Megan says, “I think forgiveness is really important. It takes a lot more energy not to forgive. But it takes a lot of effort to forgive. I have really made an active effort, especially knowing that I can say anything… I have a lot to say until I don’t. Do you like this? Sometimes, as they say, the mute part is still part of the song.”
