Meghan Markle: “I Just Want People to Tell the Truth”

 

Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, has once again offered a candid glimpse into her life after stepping back from royal duties, saying she would rewrite her public narrative by simply asking people to “tell the truth.” In a wide-ranging interview on the Aspire podcast with British fashion entrepreneur Emma Grede, Meghan took what many interpreted as a thinly veiled swipe at the Royal family, insisting that “a lie can’t last forever” and reflecting on the years in which she says she was denied the chance to speak for herself.

 

 

“If I could rewrite anything,” she said when asked about how she might reshape her image, “yes, I would ask people to tell the truth.” Recalling advice she received from her friend, tennis legend Serena Williams, Meghan added: “My dear friend Serena, she told me years ago: ‘A lie can’t live forever.’ Eight years is a long time, but not forever.”

 

Meghan, now 43, also addressed how she navigated life as a working royal, saying, “I didn’t feel as though I had as much of an opportunity to speak,” and adding that she turned to fashion as a subtle form of communication. “When I didn’t feel as though I had as much of an opportunity to speak, what can you say with what you’re wearing? You can say a lot,” she explained. “In moments where I found I wasn’t as empowered with my voice, I still wanted to be able to be heard in other ways.”

 

Her remarks echo those made during her bombshell 2021 interview with Oprah Winfrey, in which she claimed “the Firm” had played a role in “perpetuating falsehoods” about her and Prince Harry. During that conversation, Meghan also alleged that Catherine, Princess of Wales, had made her cry in the days before her wedding and that it was crucial people “understand the truth.”

 

In the podcast interview, Grede responded emotionally to Meghan’s frustrations. “You’re very measured about it. I would just get so angry if I felt like everyone was lying about me all the time…” Meghan replied, “Peaks and valleys… It’s true, of course, I’ve gone through those chapters and do a lot of work, you do a lot of self-work and go, what’s the why? It’s happening for a reason.”

 

The Duchess also spoke about her current endeavors, particularly her new lifestyle brand, As Ever. Initially launched with jars of jam, Meghan said the brand is “going global” and expanding into hospitality, hostessing, and possibly fashion and beauty in the future. “I’m not saying there aren’t moments when I don’t feel scared, but my faith is greater than my fear. I believe in myself, I believe in my team and the potential for success,” she said. “I don’t see the possibility of failure, not when you can learn from everything you’ve done.”

 

She described her proudest achievement as investing in herself. “It takes courage to bet on yourself,” she said.

 

The Duchess reflected on a joyful moment shortly before the birth of her daughter, Princess Lilibet, when she and Harry were filmed twerking in a hospital delivery suite. She described the video as a reminder of her “authentic, fun life” and expressed gratitude for being able to share such moments “on her own terms.”

 

She also addressed the purpose of her personal Instagram account, which she has used increasingly to share family photos and glimpses of her private life. “For me it was a great way to get my voice back. It’s my space and my channel for joy… that’s the intention of my handle,” she said, distancing the platform from her business ventures.

 

Even when she didn’t have “skin in the game,” Meghan said she tried to support emerging talent, particularly female-founded and local designers during royal tours. “Being able to support female-founded designers, small local brands ... any territories we would go to on certain tours, I always tried to tap into local designers.”

 

Through all the criticism and controversy, Meghan continues to assert one simple wish: for people to tell the truth.

Megs is 43, true, but I'd show her a good time.

 

It can't be easy when you've lived such a difficult life as Megs has.

 

Praying for you babe 🙏

Here is the truth: I don't care

[Watawattana]

I'm sure she's always told the truth, good or bad, to everyone, 100% of the time... 

[1FinickyOne]

Truth is that she doesn't interest me very much...

Imagine being so oppressed that you had to rely on a wardrobe that could feed several families for a lifetime to speak for you. 

the horror.

No definitive evidence supports the claim that Prince Harry is the son of James Hewitt. This rumor, which has circulated for years, primarily stems from Hewitt’s affair with Princess Diana in the mid-1980s and some noted physical similarities, like red hair. However, key facts debunk this:

Timeline: Harry was born on September 15, 1984. Diana’s affair with Hewitt began around 1986, according to Hewitt’s own statements and Diana’s biographer Andrew Morton. This makes it highly unlikely Hewitt is the father.

Paternity: No DNA test has been publicly conducted to dispute King Charles III’s paternity. The royal family has never acknowledged the rumor, and Hewitt himself denied it in a 2002 interview, stating Harry was born before the affair started.

Physical Traits: Red hair, often cited as “evidence,” is not exclusive to Hewitt. The Spencer family, Diana’s lineage, also has red-haired members, including her brother Charles Spencer.

The rumor persists due to tabloid speculation and public fascination, but it lacks credible substantiation. 

 

in other words a lie.

No DNA test has been publicly conducted to dispute King Charles III’s paternity. The royal family has never acknowledged the rumor.

So no proof against the 'rumour' and no denial.

 

in other words a lie.

Or the participants in an extra-marital affair were lying.

Difficult to take the rumor (or you) seriously given that Harry was born before Diana and Hewitt ever met.

[CatCage]

The latest scandle involving her two children her pregnancy and lack of documentation during the births is gathering momentum so we will see where that one goes.

 

And as for her twerking on video whilst supposidy pregnent, disgraceful!!

Another lie. Taking just the first born since it was in the UK =

 

Archie Harrison Mountbatten-Windsor was born on May 6, 2019, at the Portland Hospital in London, with his birth announced by Buckingham Palace and documented in The Gazette.I suppose the nutcases who propagate the lie will argue that the British Establishment was in on the deception as well.

...and an English aristocrat, Diana Spencer. In other words he is in no way related to the Saxe-Coburg Gothas who led Britain into 2 World wars, and into its' subsequent decline.

No it's Grok actually.A quick way to demolish the more stupid conspiracy theories.These seem to be over represented on the is forum.Not surprising perhaps given its predominant demographic - blue collar, retired, indifferently educated, often right wing.

[JingerBen]

Individuals and demographics who are widely hated usually do a good job of bringing it on themselves.

A case in point here.
