Meghan Markle Calls Royal Family ‘The Firm’ And Accuses Them Of ‘Perpetuating Falsehoods ’In Oprah Winfrey Interview Promo
CBS has released a new clip of Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s highly anticipated sit-down with Oprah Winfrey, where she accuses the royal family of “perpetuating falsehoods” about her and Prince Harry.
In the teaser, the Duchess of Sussex was asked how she felt Buckingham Palace would respond to hearing her “speak her truth today.” She replied, “I don’t know how they could expect that, after all of this time, we would still just be silent if there is an active role that The Firm is playing in perpetuating falsehoods about us.” Markle says, using a nickname for the royals purportedly originated by King George VI, Page Six notes.
“And if that comes with risk of losing things,” she adds, “there’s a lot that’s been lost already.” The 30-second promo clip was released after Buckingham Palace announced on Wednesday that it will launch an investigation into allegations of bullying made against Meghan by former members of staff.
Meghan’s spokesperson responded to the claims, calling it a “smear campaign” that has upset the Duchess in particular because she has been “the target of bullying herself and is deeply committed to supporting those who have experienced pain and trauma.”
