It looks like Oprah Winfrey's tell-all interview with Prince Harry and Meghan Markle is sparking a lot of conversations within the royal family.
On CBS This Morning, Gayle King, who happens to be good friends with Markle, just revealed that Prince Harry has already spoken with Prince William and Prince Charles following his sit-down with Oprah on March 7.
King revealed, "Well, I'm not trying to break news, but I did actually call them to see how they were feeling, and it's true, Harry has talked to his brother and he has talked to his father too. The word I was given was that those conversations were not productive. But they are glad that they have at least started a conversation."
King also said that Markle has yet to be included in the process. She continued, "No one in the royal family has talked to Meghan yet, at this particular time."
For those who missed the original interview, Harry and his wife got candid about their experiences with the royal family. For instance, Meghan discussed the lack of royal protection, as well as their son, Archie Harrison Mountbatten-Windsor, being denied a royal title. Markle also revealed that racist questions were raised about Archie's appearance, including "concerns and conversations about how dark his skin might be when he's born."
Queen Elizabeth has responded to the couple's interview by saying, "The whole family is saddened to learn the full extent of how challenging the last few years have been for Harry and Meghan. The issues raised, particularly that of race, are concerning." Prince William also offered a brief statement, assuring everyone of his intent to speak with his brother about the issues raised.
Good to know that the royal lines of communication are at least open once again.
