Experts are shocked that the Duchess delved into one topic during her New York Magazine interview. 

On Monday Meghan Markle's explosive interview with New York Magazine's The Cut went live. As part of the up-close-and-personal profile, Meghan invited a journalist into the home she shares with Prince Harry and their two children, Archie and Lillibet, and openly discussed several topics, including the alleged racism she faced at the expense of the British media and the Royal family and why she and Harry decided to leave their roles as working Royals, her intentions of getting back onto social media, and even her husband's estranged relationship with his own father, the future King of England, Prince Charles. Many of the details revealed in the interview left the world shocked, but one, in particular, sparked a major storm.

"The thing I think is most shocking is she says that Harry told her he thinks he has lost his father too, the way that she has lost hers," journalist Andrew Pierce said on GB News. "If he did tell her that, why is she revealing that to a New York magazine? Isn't that incredibly private?"
