The pressure of being under the microscope drove Meghan, the Duchess of Sussex, to thoughts of suicide, Prince Harry’s wife said Sunday in an explosive interview with Oprah Winfrey.
She said she had been the victim of “character assassination” and that the pressure drove her to the point of self-harm.
“Look, I was really ashamed to have to say it at the time and ashamed to have to admit it to Harry especially, but I knew that if I didn’t say that, I would do it,” an emotional Meghan said. “I just didn’t want to be alive anymore.”
