CBS News has confirmed the allegations that the London Times first reported on Wednesday that later Meghan married Harry in 2018 and moved to the royal house, unnamed staff members accused her of “emotional cruelty and manipulation,” forcing her to leave two aides.
In an infrequent move, Buckingham Palace issued a public response, saying Wednesday it was “clearly very concerned about The Times’ allegations” and that its human resources team “will examine the circumstances mentioned in the article.”
“You could probably only describe this relationship now, between the two sides, as a total war,” Sunday Times correspondent Roya Nikkhah told CBS News. The couple’s interview with Oprah was recorded two weeks ago, before the allegations were made public.
In another preview of the interview, Harry said his “biggest concern was the recurring story,” an apparent reference to his late mother, Diana, Princess of Wales. Her parents divorced in 1996 after a long and very public breakup. She died a year later in a car accident after being chased by the paparazzi. Harry was 12 when he died.
“You know, for me, I’m very relieved and happy to be sitting here, talking to you, to my wife by my side,” Harry said. “Because I can’t begin to imagine what life must have been like for her, going through this process on her own, all those years ago. Because it’s been incredibly hard for both of us, but at least we had each other.”
Harry said James Corden in February, he believes the British press is “toxic”.
“We all know how the British press can be and it was destroying my mental health … I was saying,‘ This is toxic, ’” the prince told Corden in an interview he aired on CBS’s “The Late Late Show. “So I did what any husband and any father would do: it was like ‘I need to get my family out of here.'”
Harry and Meghan’s interview comes when their grandfather, Prince Philip, 99, has been hospitalized for more than two weeks. On Thursday, Buckingham Palace said yes has been operated successfully for a pre-existing heart condition.
