Meghan says ‘didn’t want to be alive anymore’
NEW YORK, March 8, 2021 (BSS/AFP) – Meghan Markle revealed in a no-holds-
barred interview Sunday that a barrage of negative coverage in the British
press had driven her to the point where life no longer seemed worth living.
“I knew that if I didn’t say it, that I would do it. And I… just didn’t
want to be alive anymore. And that was a very clear and real and frightening
constant thought,” she said in the two-hour CBS spot with Oprah Winfrey.
Meghan, who married Prince Harry in 2018, said she told the royal family
she was struggling and needed professional help but was told “that I
couldn’t, that it wouldn’t be good for the institution.”
