- 3 years ago
Buckingham Palace has issued a statement in response to Prince Harry and Meghan’s interview with Oprah Winfrey.
The statement on behalf of the Queen reads: "The whole family is saddened to learn the full extent of how challenging the last few years have been for Harry and Meghan.
"The issues raised, particularly that of race, are concerning. While some recollections may vary, they are taken very seriously and will be addressed by the family privately.
"Harry, Meghan and Archie will always be much loved family members."
Earlier today Prince Charles, in his first public appearance since the interview with Oprah Winfrey was aired, declined to comment.
The interview was watched by over 11 million people in the UK.
The British public is split on whether the Duke and Duchess of Sussex were treated fairly or unfairly by the royal family.
A snap YouGov poll found 32% believed they were treated unfairly, while an equal proportion - 32% - did not, and 36% did not know. Report by Avagninag. Like us on Facebook at http://www.facebook.com/itn and follow us on Twitter at http://twitter.com/itn
