Meghan & Harry: The Oprah interview that plunged the monarchy into crisis

Buckingham Palace is struggling to contain the fallout from a series of bombshell allegations from Harry and Meghan in their much-anticipated interview with Oprah Winfrey. The monarchy has been plunged into crisis as the Duchess of Sussex alleged that a member of the royal family had raised “concerns” when she was pregnant about how dark her son Archie’s skin would be. Meghan also told how life as a working royal had taken her to the brink of suicide.

Evening Standard columnist, and senior editor of the Economist, Anne McElvoy joins the podcast to talk about how damaging the allegations could be, and what Buckingham Palace needs to do next to recover? The interview was shown in the States on Sunday night and will be broadcast in the UK on ITV at 9pm tonight and ITV Hub.
