It's no secret that the relationship between Meghan, Harry and the royal family is strained. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex, who are currently living in California, recently gave a bombshell interview with Oprah Winfrey where Meghan revealed the reason she believes Archie does not have the title of prince.

Meghan, who is biracial, described that when she was first pregnant with son Archie, there were "concerns and conversations about how dark his skin might be when he’s born." The statement led Winfrey to incredulously ask "What?"
While Winfrey sat in silence, Meghan said she struggled to understand why there were concerns within the royal family about her son’s skin color. She said it was hard for her to "compartmentalize" those conversations.
Meghan, the actress who starred in the TV drama "Suits," said she grew concerned about her son not having a royal title because it meant he wouldn’t be provided security.

Meghan said processing everything during her pregnancy was "very hard." More than the "prince" title, she felt the most troubled over her son’s safety and protection.
Harry later confirmed the statements were not made by his grandparents – Queen Elizabeth II and the late Prince Philip.
