The couple spoke about racism, mental health, and their decision to leave the royal family. The interview was watched by millions of people around the world and ignited a conversation about the monarchy.
Later that month, Prince Philip, Queen Elizabeth’s husband, passed away at the age of 99. Harry and Meghan paid tribute to him on their website, stating, “He has been a rock for Her Majesty The Queen with unparalleled devotion, by her side for 73 years of marriage, and while I could go on, I know that right now he would say to all of us, beer in hand, ‘Oh do get on with it!'” The couple also made the decision to not attend the funeral due to Meghan’s pregnancy and travel restrictions.
