The pair relocated to the United States at the beginning of 2020, since settling in Santa Barbara, California. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are already parents to almost-two-year-old son Archie Mountbatten Windsor, who was born back in May 2019. The trio have been living in their Montecito home amid the COVID-19 pandemic.
During their interview with Winfrey, Meghan discussed her experience during her first pregnancy, revealing that there were several racist conversations within the monarchy discussing Archie's skin color.
"In those months when I was pregnant all around this same time, we had in tandem the conversation of he wont be given security, he wont be given a title...and also concerns and conversations about how dark his skin will be when he's born," said Meghan. "That was relayed to me from Harry, that was from conversations that family had with him. It was really hard to see those as compartmentalized conversations."
