Anybody going to watch this? As really would love what they have to say since leaving the UK.
Heard the tabloids there can be very brutal then in the USA. Really heard Buckingham Palace can be controling there. And one of themany reasons they had to leave. It is two hours BTW!

Probably going to wait for the highlights. Some are saying the Queen needs to apologize publicly. What is that about?

I’m definitely going to watch. I even bought snacks for the occasion. I’ve been following the British Royal Family since I was a kid. And have shelves full of books to prove it, lol.

I understand Oprah with Meghan and Harry: A CBS Primetime Special starts at 7 p.m. Arizona time.

It's a tough call with NBA All-Star game starting at 6 p.m. :D

I don't even have any treats.

Never understood people's obsession with the royal family.

If that's your thing - enjoy !! I'll be doing anything else. ;)

My interest is how Prince Harry & Dutchess Meghan took a step away from the royal family.

I'd like to find out more what prompted this move.

It was said during the show that Prince Henry and Dutchess Meghan were not paid for the interview.


I watched some highlights this morning.

There was concern within the Royal family about what the color of Archie's skin was going to be. Yikes. They weren't going to give him any title or any protection.

Plus they treated Meghan horribly, like they did with Princess Diana. Making life unbearable for Meghan.

So Henry said, he are out.

That's the basics from someone who didn't actually watch it.

Those are some basics I took away as well.

Also I don't think Harry and Meghan wanted out per se, only a lesser role like many others in the royal family.

Now they are stripped of security and royal duties. Even their child Archie cannot become a prince.

One can't help but wonder if race played a role especially with the tabloids and their influence on the royal family.

It sounds like Harry and Meghan are on the outside looking in and not by choice... as portrayed by the media.

Read they were paid $7M for this. Stupid.


CBS paid between $7 million (£5m) and $9m (£6.5m) for the rights to air the interview, according to The Wall Street Journal which cited those familiar with negotiations. But the Duke and Duchess of Sussex will not make any money from the broadcast, with Oprah’s production company, Harpo, one of the parties reportedly set to benefit instead. At the beginning of the interview, Oprah made clear Prince Harry and Meghan would not make money from the program. She said: ‘Before we get into it, I just want to make it clear to everybody that even though we’re neighbours… that there has not been an agreement. ‘You don’t know what I’m going to ask, there is no subject that’s off-limits and you are not getting paid for this interview.’ The Duchess responded: ‘All of that is correct.’
