Former first lady Michelle Obama says she hopes their friends Meghan Markle and Prince Harry can reconcile with the British royal family after the couple’s bomb TV interview last week.
“My hope is that when I think about what they are going through, I think about the importance of family, and I just pray that there is forgiveness, and that there is clarity and love and determination at some point,” Obama said. said in a report to “Access Hollywood” on Monday.
“Because there is nothing more important than family,” Obama said.
Markle and the prince shook the palace when they told interviewer Oprah Winfrey that a royal ‘concern’ had been expressed about how dark their son Archie’s skin would be, as the duchess is bisexual.
The couple also addressed everyone from sister-in-law Kate Middleton – who Markle said she made her cry once – to Harry’s father, Prince Charles.
Obama has been a longtime supporter of Markle and called her a ‘thoughtful leader’ in an Instagram post in 2019.
