Meghan (41), the wife of Prince Harry (38), is very grateful that she got to know Queen Elizabeth and spent time with her.
So says the Duchess of Sussex in an interview with ‘Variety’. Meghan also discusses working with her husband and a possible return to the silver screen.
“Now she is reunited with her husband”
In the conversation it is about how Harry and Meghan experienced the time after Elizabeth’s death. “I am very grateful that I could be with my husband to support him, especially during that time,” Meghan said. She further calls it a ‘complicated period’. Harry was somewhat optimistic. “Now she is reunited with her husband,” he is said to have told Meghan.
According to Meghan, Elizabeth was “the most shining example of female leadership.” After her death, Meghan recalled her first official engagement with the Queen. “About how special that felt. I feel happy. And I’m still proud that I had that warmth with the matriarch of the family.”
Meghan and Harry are currently working with Netflix on a documentary about their lives, although its release has been slightly delayed due to the criticism that the streaming service is receiving for their hit series The Crown . Meghan feels safe with the director on duty. “We’re entrusting our story to someone else, and that means it’s going to go through a different lens. It’s interesting. My husband has never worked in this industry before. For me, it’s so amazing to have so much creative energy around me.” to have.”
Meghan and her husband are also developing series and documentaries. They’re all about love. “People love love.” For example, the Duchess of Sussex envisions a rom-com. “You won’t see a horror film from us.”
Meghan has become known as an actress in the Suits series , but she now rules out a return to ‘that world’. “I’m done with that. I never say never, but I have no intention of doing that again.”
Given The Crown and other popular series today, it is possible that someone else will step into Meghan’s shoes one day and thus end up a bit on the silver screen. Yet Meghan hasn’t really thought about that yet. “Anyone who plays me then will be a caricature of me made for a company that makes people a lot of money. If you remember that, it’s much easier to think: That has nothing to do with me.”
And what if Meghan’s children, Archie and Lilibet, later decide that they want to act or present? Then Meghan would encourage that, she says. “As a parent, of course you want your child to do what he or she wants, something that gives him or her joy. They are part of a legacy and tradition of a large family that may have different expectations, but I want them to follow their own path. can walk.”
