Interview Meghan and Harry: why the attitude of Oprah Winfrey annoyed Internet users?
The interview with Meghan Markle and Prince Harry left internet users mixed. Some criticize the host for not having learned enough about the British royal family and its extremely precise protocol, deeming her questions and reactions "embarrassing" ...
This is the interview the British have been waiting for, or dreading. Meghan Markle and Prince Harry have just flayed royalty with their interview with Oprah Winfrey, broadcast Monday night March 7 to Tuesday March 8 on CBS. To acquire the broadcasting rights for these exclusive confidences, the American channel would have spent between 7 and 9 million dollars, or more than 6 million euros, according to the Wall Street Journal.
An astronomical sum for revelations that risk shaking the corridors of Buckingham Palace. During this interview, Meghan Markle returned to the tensions with Kate Middleton, her suicidal thoughts but also the racism she would have suffered as Archie's birth approached. The former Suits actress shocked Oprah Winfrey, explaining that some members of royalty were concerned about her baby's skin color. His reaction, marked by a huge “WHAT ?! "(" WHAT ?! "), has already been around social media.
Lack of knowledge on Oprah Winfrey's part?
Several netizens recalled that the host remains the queen in the interview exercise, considering this interview to be a "masterclass". “Oprah Winfrey is incredible,” “Oprah is the best,” we also read on Twitter. But for others, the host had "not done her homework."
"It was complicated watching a billionaire quiz two millionaires about how difficult it was to leave billions to become mere millionaires," quipped one user of the social network. "No interview", "How to silence Oprah? That's enough ! "Her show just isn't interesting", "Oprah isn't knowledgeable enough about the Royal Family", "No questions about Meghan's family", "Oprah seemed to ignore both history and protocol of the royal family; many of his reactions and questions were embarrassing, "" Why didn't you ask Harry why he didn't prepare his wife for living with the royal family? », We could also read through the crowd of reproaches. If critics abound on the lack of questions about the royal family, as well as that of Meghan Markle, this meeting has in any case had its small effect ...
This interview is WOW. A masterclass by Oprah. And I’m just in awe of Meghan Markle. She is making an incredible global impact with her words and truth.

We already knew this but tonight was a reminder that Oprah is truly a master of interviewing. Her expressions, pacing, open-ended questions, ability to circle back...this is mastery at the highest levels. I am inspired

One thing is for sure... @Oprah is the 🐐. Nobody better. Not even close. Great interview.

So, Buckingham Palace felt Archie wouldn't be white enough to receive a title and appropriate security, despite being 7th in line to the throne. Holy hell.

As a biracial woman, who had a grandmother that would not hold her because her father was brown, my sympathy for #MeghanMarkle struggles being a rich princess are approximately ZERO! PS LAME INTERVIEW!

It was very hard to watch a billionaire question 2 millionaires on how hard it's been leaving billions, to become mere millionaires. Thoughts & prayers to Harry &Meghan during this difficult time, as they adapt to new staff AND a new mansion. Poor things. #MeghanMarkle #oprah

#OprahMeghanHarry several big bombshells: attacks on ‘The Firm’ but no direct criticism of the Queen: Duchess says one family member asked about the colour of their baby’s skin: says she felt suicidal during first pregnancy pic.twitter.com/WI6HXUB14A

@Oprah Why didn’t you ask Harry why he didn’t prepare his wife for life with the Royal Family? After what his mother went through you’d think he would want to prepare her as much as possible so she could make an informed decision about what she was getting into. #OprahMeghanHarry
