Meghan Markle, the Duchess of Sussex, is making headlines again as she accuses Buckingham Palace of "perpetuating falsehoods" about her and Prince Harry.
In a sneak peek of the upcoming Oprah Winfrey interview, Meghan expressed her disbelief at the palace's expectation for them to remain silent while actively engaging in spreading misinformation.
The Duchess stated, "I don't know how they could expect us, after all this time, to remain silent when there has been an active role that 'the firm' (the Palace) is playing in perpetuating falsehoods about us." Despite the potential consequences, Meghan emphasized that much has already been lost.
Simultaneously, Buckingham Palace announced an investigation into allegations that Meghan harassed staff during her time at Kensington Palace in London. The complaint, filed in October 2018, surfaced through a leaked email accusing Meghan of mistreating personal assistants and undermining the trust of another employee.
Expressing deep concern, Buckingham Palace affirmed its commitment to investigating the allegations thoroughly. The Royal Household stated, "The Royal Household has had a Dignity at Work policy for a number of years and does not and will not tolerate bullying or harassment in the workplace."
The accusations of bullying against Meghan emerged after the Oprah interview was recorded. The full interview, set to air in the US on Sunday and in the UK on Monday, is expected to delve into Harry and Meghan's time as working members of the royal family before their relocation to North America.
In response to the investigation, Meghan's spokesperson issued a statement expressing her sadness and determination. The Duchess, denying the allegations, remains committed to supporting those who have experienced pain and trauma. Prince Harry, who previously spoke about stepping back to protect his family from the media, will likely address the ongoing narrative in the interview.
As the anticipation builds, it's evident that Meghan and Harry are not holding back in presenting their version of events, challenging the palace's stance and shedding light on their experiences within the royal family. The gloves are off, and family ties do not seem to deter them from speaking their truth.
