Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s much anticipated interview with Oprah aired last night. Viewers were shocked by the bombshells that were dropped during the sit-down, and the sincerity with which the Sussexes spoke candidly about their experiences in the monarchy.
Oprah gave the expectant couple (Harry revealed they’re expecting a baby girl this summer) the space to discuss some of their most pressing experiences, delving into topics such as Meghan’s racist treatment and her deteriorating mental health that left her contemplating suicide.
The interview held everyone’s attention, illustrating more of the story that royal followers already suspected. Social media was entranced throughout, showcasing reactions that ranged from creative jokes and outrage, to a mashup of Royals and WandaVision memes. Here are some of the best reactions that were posted online:
