First it was the Oprah Winfrey interview with F Prince Harry and Meghan, Duchess of Sussex that shook the royal family to the core, thanks to its numerous bombshell revelations.
Now Meghan has lobbed. several grenades at her in-laws with the first two episodes of her much-anticipated podcast, Archetypes, and an in-depth interview with US magazine The Cut.
Her comments about Britain's first family prompted royal commentator Sarah Vine to describe the article as "an Exocet missile tipped with poison calculated to strike at the heart of the British monarchy”.
In it, among the many claims Meghan, 41, makes, is that she and Harry were happy to leave the UK because “just by existing, we were upsetting the dynamic of the royal hierarchy”.
And in Meghan’s first two podcasts, her “truth bombs” include being made to feel bad for being ambitious and that she only started being treated like a “black woman” after she began dating Harry, 37.
While the first podcast was a rating winner, listened to by millions of people around the world, it was panned by critics as “preposterous” and “pure, narcissistic gibberish”.
Part of the $29 million deal she and Harry have with Spotify, Archetypes is intended to “investigate, dissect and subvert the labels that try to hold women back”.
In the first one, Meghan says, “I know a thing or two about those labels myself. My hope is that my own lived experience will help other women to open up to reveal the layers that thrive within all of us.”
Royal biographer Angela Levin says Meghan’s attitude towards the royal family is shocking.
