...is this for the Oprah interview..?...there is no donation being made to any of their charities, as well as no fee being given...it was posted earlier in the thread...
"A spokeswoman for the Oprah Winfrey Network confirmed that the couple won’t be collecting a paycheck and said that no donations are being made to their charity."
While there were news outlets that would probably have paid millions for this exclusive insight into Meghan and Harry's lives and minds, it seems that's not what it's about. And if that is the case, it's not particularly surprising.
Meghan Markle has long been the target of unwarranted invasion into her life. She faced regular harsh and unnecessary criticism after joining the royal family, and ultimately ended up suing a newspaper (and winning) after they published parts of a private letter written to her father following her May 2018 wedding.
Naysayers might argue that giving an interview goes against Meghan's desire for privacy, but I think it does the exact opposite. It allows her to tell her story in her own words; something she was unable to do in her position as a working member of the British royal family.
For the Sussexes, setting the record straight is clearly important to them, and without sounding too much like the Mastercard advert... that's priceless.
