The royal family’s relationship with Prince Harry and Meghan has been strained in recent years
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are set to take part in a new interview with CBS on Sunday, which also coincides with the former actress’ 43rd birthday.
The joint interview marks the first time they sat down for one together since the much-talked-about chat with Oprah Winfrey back in 2021.
The couple raised eyebrows when they spoke about the royal family during the interview – one year before their explosive docuseries, Harry & Meghan, dropped on Netflix.
Months later, more revelations were made in the Duke of Sussex’s memoir Spare. Understandably, relations between them and the royals have become increasingly strained.
Here, we take a look back at everything the Princess of Wales has said about her sister-in-law ahead of their new interview.
The Princess first publicly spoke about Prince Harry’s future wife following the news of their engagement in November 2017. In a joint statement with her husband, Prince William, Kate said: “We are very excited for Harry and Meghan. It has been wonderful getting to know Meghan and to see how happy she and Harry are together.”
Kate later told reporters: “William and I are absolutely thrilled. It’s such exciting news. It’s a really happy time for any couple and we wish them all the best and hope they enjoy this happy moment.”
The following year came the news that Meghan was pregnant with the couple’s first baby. And Kate was quick to gush about the future new arrival during a visit to Leicester in November 2018.
