Prince Harry attributes his wife Meghan Markle's miscarriage to the relentless pressure from the press, shedding light on the profound impact of media intrusion on their lives.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex recently unveiled the final three episodes of their Netflix documentary, where they openly discuss personal struggles, including Meghan's miscarriage.
Despite the couple's legal victory against tabloid intrusion, Prince Harry chose to candidly address the direct consequences of the violation of their privacy.
Meghan, the former actress, experienced a miscarriage shortly after their move to the United States in 2020, and Prince Harry believes the intense scrutiny and invasion of their privacy played a role in this tragic event.
Prince Harry expressed his perspective before the cameras, stating, "I think my wife suffered a miscarriage, which is why she did the 'Mail.' I saw it all from the front row. Now, do we absolutely know that the miscarriage was provoked, caused by that? Of course not. But taking into account the stress it caused her, the lack of sleep and the stage of pregnancy she was in, how many weeks she was... I can say, from what I saw, that the abortion was caused by what they were trying to do to her."
In another episode of the documentary, Meghan reveals a poignant detail about her husband's late grandmother, Queen Elizabeth II. The Queen had suggested that Meghan write to her father and explain the challenging situation they were facing, emphasizing the complex family dynamics at play.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex's decision to share such personal struggles in their documentary highlights their commitment to addressing mental health issues and the impact of media intrusion on their lives. The couple's openness contributes to a broader conversation about the toll of constant public scrutiny on individuals and families in the public eye.
