The friendship between Oprah Winfrey and the Dukes of Sussex goes back a long way and the presenter was even one of the guests at Meghan and Harry’s wedding in 2019. However, the interview that meghan It is harry gave CBS, in March 2021, and which generated a strong crisis between the Dukes of Sussex and the British royal family, brought them even closer together, as well as the fact that they were practically neighbors, in Montecito, California.
For this very reason, it is not surprising that Oprah feels entitled to give her opinion on the presence of Meghan and Harry at the coronation of Charles III, on the 6th of May, at Westminster Abbey, in London. When questioned by Gayle King in the program ‘Mornings’, from the CBSif the Dukes should go to the historic ceremony, the presenter said: “I think they should do what they think is best for them and their family. That’s what I think. This is the starting point: what do you feel is best for you?”. However, Oprah also stressed that the couple “did not ask her opinion”.
It should be remembered that, although the Dukes of Sussex have already been officially invited to the most important ceremony for the British royal family in the new era without Elizabeth II, they have not yet confirmed their presence, so everything is open.
