She explained to Oprah Winfrey in her explosive interview with the American chat show legend.
Meghan, who admitted that she married Prince Harry “naively”, opened the lid on her royal life and says the scrutiny was “almost insurmountable”.

She said: “In those months when she was pregnant, we had conversations that she was not given security or a title, and also concerns about how dark her skin might be when she was born.
“They didn’t want him to be a prince or a princess, not knowing what the gender would be, which would be different from
protocol, and that he was not going to receive security “,
The host of the chat show then asked, “Who is having that conversation with you?”
However, she refused to give details about who within the family left her with those concerns.
When asked who the conversation was with: “I think that would be very detrimental to them.”
Several of Meghan’s friends have come out to defend the Duchess following allegations of intimidation.
They have described her as “enthusiastic, kind, cooperative, generous, cheerful”.
Patrick Adams, who starred in Suits alongside her, said: “She has always been a powerful woman with a deep sense of morality and a fierce work ethic and has never been afraid to speak up, be heard and stand up for herself and her loved ones. . “
She later adds: “IT IS OBSCENE that the Royal Family, whose newest member is GROWING WITHIN IT, is promoting and amplifying accusations of ‘intimidation’ against a woman who was basically forced to leave the UK to protect her family and own mental health. “
Another friend, Lindsay Jill Roth, said that “goodwill runs through her bones.”
She said, “If you ever have the pleasure of meeting Meg, and I hope more of you do, you will see the selfless and magnanimous friend that I am fortunate to have in my corner.”
But she said before: “The Queen has always been wonderful to me. I loved being in her company.”
She later talked about how she “didn’t want to stay alive.”
Meghan says that “you have no idea what happens behind closed doors.”
