Even after ending their official duties of the British royal family and banishing themselves into exile to the United States, Meghan and Harry still hold out much.
The world-famous couple cannot get rid of tabloid coverage wherever they go – whether in the UK or the US – and it’s unclear whether they’re even trying.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have left the UK saying they want to lead a normal life – but their opponents have accused them of continuing to use Harry’s legacy to make money.

They sat down with Oprah Winfrey for a two-hour interview that airs Sunday to tell their side of the story.

British critics have blown the whistle as Prince Harry’s 99-year-old grandfather, Prince Phillip, recovers from heart surgery.
And on this side of the Atlantic, some critics say they simply do not care about the gossip surrounding the royals.
“I am certainly not in love with the British kingdom, but Meghan Markle needed to know what royal life is going to be like before she marries it, unless she is completely empty,” former New York GOP representative Pete King said in ‘ wrote a Facebook post. “And if the two of them weren’t happy, they should have left and not started their self-pity tour.”

“Selfish complaints of perverted bad content deserve only to be ignored,” King wrote. “These two need to get jobs and just disappear for a while!”
Conservative activist Candace Owens reflected the sentiment, calling Meghan a ‘typical Hollywood narcissist’ for the start of the interview with Winfrey.
But Meghan is not without her defenders.
Canadian actor Patrick J. Adams, who co-starred with her in the show ‘Suits’, defends Markle against British criticism, calling it ‘OBSCENE’ for the royal family to ‘reinforce’ allegations that she is a bully and argued that the monarchy “has survived its relevance.”

Teaser clips released before the interview showed Harry expressing fears that the media frenzy surrounding the couple could lead to something tragic, such as when his mother, Princess Diana, died in a car accident while being picked up by paparazzi was pursued.
The interview is expected to raise millions in advertising money, and in response to a Wall Street Journal report that CBS paid $ 7 million for the right to broadcast the interview, said Jason Miller, former Trump 2020 adviser, ” What a waste. “
