One such interview with the Duchess was last year’s session by The Cut magazine. Although speaking of her in-laws did not seem to be the primary agenda, Meghan Markle still split quite a lot about them all. One such instance was her narrating the present dynamics of his husband, Prince Harry’s strained relationship with his father, King Charles III.

The host, Allison P. Davis, posed a question about Markle’s relationship with her own estranged father. Answering the same, the Duchess drew in the narration of the Windsors.
