Sitting down one-on-one with Oprah, the new Santa Barbara resident reminisced about a moment back in 2018 when she nearly gave her first interview to the daytime TV legend.
Winfrey recalled the time period, referencing a phone conversation they’d had before Meghan’s wedding to Harry. The former Suits actress was right there with her, offering a glimpse into how tightly-controlled life was as a member of the royal family:
“I remember that conversation very well. I wasn’t even allowed to have this conversation with you personally, right? There had to be people from the — sitting there, there were other people in the room when I was having that conversation.”
And when Oprah pushed back on that, asking Meghan what was so different from then to today, the 39-year-old responded immediately:
“Well, so many things. That we’re on the other side of a lot of — a lot of life experience that’s happened, and also that we have the ability to make our own choices in a way that I couldn’t have said yes to you then. That wasn’t my choice to make. As an adult who lived a really independent life to then go into this construct that is different than I think what people expect it to be, it’s really liberating to be able to have the right and the privilege in some ways to be able to say yes, I’m ready to talk.”
Interesting!
Obviously, it’s kind of a no duh moment to learn that the royal family is strict about media attention! But it’s definitely interesting to watch Meghan wriggle her way out of that drama and now start to come into her own, too.
Here’s the full teaser clip (below):
