She is lying through her teeth, Meghan said that she did not know that Diana did not do an interview, she went into it very naively, did not know anything about Royal Family.

I don't buy she did not know anything about them.

Well then I guess this interview puts to rest the argument that they left for their privacy. They don't want privacy, they want attention- just on their own terms.

The part about not knowing if Diana did an interview is pure phooey. She’s a very smart girl and smart girls do their homework. Please!

They want to pick and choose what they want to release. I think it's a girl based on her smile.

Actually she said her mother Doria didn't know about Diana's interview and she told Doria "yes, she gave a very famous one."

But I noticed she referred to Sarah Duchess of York as "Fergie." Wonder why didn't she call her Sarah?

I'm not sure what is more... astonishing - that she would lied about it or actually DIDN'T DO ANY RESEARCH, like what?! Sure, she wouldn't have to go deep or look into the very personal stuff, but the obvious research of the family... well, would not hurt, as we can see now.

Meghan did not say that she did not know anything about the royal family-- let us be fair and balanced for readers who are not watching live.

She said she did not know more than an average American might, who did not grow up surrounded by news about the royals and surrounded by cultural knowledge about them, and that when she started dating Harry she purposely did not "research" them or read about them online.

Yep! She didn’t know much about the family, thought she was just meeting his grandmother, not the Queen. This is unreal.

[Duchess_Watcher]

How did anyone not know Diana did not do an interview? That was covered all across America.

Her role today is that of the 'innocent ingenue" who was blinded by the Royal Family, she did not know that you have to curtsy to the HM, Harry did not tell her? Apparently, he told her in the car during the ride to lunch with HM and not before. She practised her curtsey right in front of the gates to the Palace.- very boring so far.

[Fem]

Wait, they had a weeding before the actual... wedding? Well, that was an interesting information.

[Duchess_Watcher]

Oh! She claimed that Kate made her cry and gave her flowers. It was an issue about flower girl dresses.

For what it's worth, BBC News is doing a live-update for those unable to watch the interview live:

I almost died when she said, that she wouldn't want that in the public and wanted to keep it private, that Catherine apologized and Meghan forgave her... and now she brings this up in this huge interview

[HighGoalHighDreams]

Echoes of Sarah bringing up Diana's shoes in her biography.

[Duchess_Watcher]

That made Kate look horrible by the way she spoke on it.

[Fem]

Let's be honest, if she at any point forgave Catherine for this situation (if that even happened), she would simply not talked about it...
