The shocking information of the interview was quickly published by international newspapers, especially in the UK. Camilla Tominey wrote in the Telegraph about the former Hollywood star’s explosive interview: “Make no mistake, this is a pregnant woman who is blaming the royal family and its members for not helping her during the most difficult period.” “Whatever the family expects from this interview, it’s worse than that,” Valentine Low wrote in an article in The Times. Meanwhile, some British newspapers criticized Harry and his wife for participating in the interview, especially when Prince Philip was in hospital.

In particular, the fact that the Duchess of Sussex said that before Archie was born, some people in the royal family expressed concern about how dark the baby prince’s skin would be after birth, which shocked viewers. Many people have voiced support for Meghan, claiming that the royal family has acted racist. According to NBC News, after the conversation, the hashtag #AbolishTheMonarchy is trending on Twitter in the United Kingdom.

Many celebrities have also publicly expressed their support for Meghan. Tennis star Serena Williams claimed on her personal page: “I myself have known about the sexism and racism that the royal family and the media have used to insult women and people of colour in order to demean us, make us fall and turn our image into demons in everyone’s eyes.” She continued: “Meghan Markle, my altruistic friend, has set an example for everyone and lived her life with empathy and compassion… Her words have revealed the pain as well as the cruelty that she has suffered.”

Along with that, many British commentators and celebrities expressed concern about the inevitable damage to the British royal family after the interview. Even Meghan Markle and her husband were criticized for disrespecting the royal family, turning the rifts in the family into a topic of public scrutiny and discussion like scandals in showbiz.

“They have thrown away everything that the queen has worked hard to build and we have to believe that they are moved by compassion?” said British journalist Piers Morgan. Journalist and royal biographer Angela Levin said Harry and Meghan’s allegations were “truly incredible”. She commented: “Meghan spoke as if she was imprisoned. That’s her account. She said there was no one next to her but Harry was always there. One of the queen’s most trusted assistants is also entrusted to her. It’s hard to say that there is no one.” Acclaimed author Robert Jobson criticized the Sussexes’ interview for disrespecting the queen, attacking the monarchy and severely insulting the British people. He added: “They accused the royal family of racism but did not specify who it was. That is cowardice. They say the British press is racist, so where is the evidence?”
