She added people have “forgotten humanity” in some parts of the internet and media landscape.

Meghan Markle-Prince Harry quit royal duties

Meghan disclosed that she now purposefully keeps her distance from such disparaging remarks for her own well-being. Since leaving the Royal Family, Harry and Meghan have come under increased scrutiny. As a result, they have made fewer public appearances to concentrate on their charitable work with the Archewell Foundation in California.

Meghan’s appearance comes during a difficult time for the royal family, after Charles was diagnosed with cancer and as Kate, the wife of Harry’s older brother William, recovers from surgery. Harry has said his father’s cancer diagnosis could help bring the family closer together again. Meghan married King Charles’ second son Harry in 2018, and the couple have two children, Archie, 4, and Lilibet, 2.
