Meghan spoke about that moment, and I believe it was the moment she believed they were truly married in their hearts.
However, Harry didn’t ‘blurt out’ anything about the blessing in the garden. He also wasn’t there when Meghan talked about Archie and the skin colour conversation(s) with Harry during her pregnancy, though I do happen to believe that there were remarks about the coming baby from a member of the family, and a certain former senior royal might well be the one.
It seems to me that far too often here things that Meghan confided to Oprah are imputed to Harry as if he also said them.
Harry came in towards the end of the interview, imparted what the relationship was like with his family (father and brother) the financial cut off and the Netflix/Spotify ‘streaming’ solutions, the system at the Palace when he wasn’t allowed to see his grandmother for urgent talks, stated that he had a conversation with a member of his family about the possible skin colour of future children which took him aback, and that was about it for anything earth shattering.
These are very fair points Curryong, the only thing I would add is that Oprah made a comment that Harry had been watching the first part of the interview.
The comment re the marriage , for me, put a question mark over the whole interview, it was 'their truth.' Their version of events, an element of truth then embroidered to suit their narrative.
The AOC met them, and for whatever reason, they or him possibly suggested a small private moment/blessing. Lovely.
If Meghan had presented it like that , no problem, but no she said they phoned him up , and they were married in the garden just the 3 of them and nobody else knew. So that was her version of events that could not be true, so firstly that puts in question anything else she said, also puts in to doubt how much she respected her vows in the church that day. So what was the point of the baptism etc.
Secondly they put in the website that they were going to be financially independent, so why the shock that Charles removed finances, also Harry knows the public pay for security so why should the British taxpayer cover the expenses for security for them to live an independent financial life.
British royal protection officers cannot turn up in the USA carrying guns.
Once again it is 'their truth' , the opinion in the UK generally is that the financial independence they meant was no sovereign grant which was 5% of the income, they still intended that Charles should pay them.
The more I think about it the more I think that Oprah and Gayle have set the couple up, once or twice there were the false gasps from Oprah other times it was ' really'. She did not question anything took everything as their truth , even the marriage she did not question. Why not say was that legal, giving them the opportunity to clarify marriage /blessing.
