Social media reacts to Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's explosive interview with Oprah
In an exclusive interview with Oprah Winfrey, Megan Markle and Prince Harry raised allegations of racism in the monarchy.
Markle and her husband, Prince Harry, who married in a fairytale wedding in 2018, stepped down from frontline royal duties last year, in part blaming media intrusion for their decision to move to North America.
In an exclusive interview with Oprah Winfrey, Markle explained the couple's dramatic exit from royal life. Markle said she was denied help during her mental health crisis, was targeted by lies, and that there was official concern about the skin colour of her unborn son.

This is how people on social media reacted:
Every woman should dream for a husband like Prince Harry. When he saw the institution he was born into putting the life of his family & wife #MeghanMarkle in danger; he stopped being the prince & became her knight in shining armor. 💜#HarryandMeghanonOprah #OprahMeghanHarry

Harry wants America and the rest of the world to hate his own family, hate the Monarchy and hate his country.

I suggest everyone waits for the victims of his wife’s rampage to have their say on her outlandish claims before they do so.
As a mixed race woman, this hurt my soul.💔

It’s despicable conversations like this are still happening, even at this level, in 2021.
I commend Harry for standing up for his family & Meghan for speaking out.
Ppl have no idea how deeply embedded racism can be. #OprahMeghanHarry https://t.co/QR2bIBBamb
