6. Forgiveness is hard,but important.

The question on everyone’s mind as they approached the conclusion of the article was undoubtedly:‘where does she stand with the royal family now?’. After exposing instances of racism against their unborn child,complicated dynamics between Meghan and the Duchess of Cambridge,and suggesting Prince Charles dodged his son’s calls,the possibility of family unity seemed to be out the window.

But Meghan arguably left a small,yet visible,opening,suggesting the possibility of forgiveness. She said she believed forgiveness to be of vital importance,and a far easier feat than holding resentment.

“But it takes a lot of effort to forgive,” Meghan said.

She ended the interview on a note similar to that which she maintained throughout:saying a bit,but not too much. If one thing is now clear,Meghan is enjoying her slightly more private life,free from pressures of royalty. She’s built protective walls around herself,and she isn’t quite ready to dismantle them.

“I have a lot to say until I don’t. Do you like that?” Meghan said. “Sometimes,as they say,the silent part is still part of the song.”
