Beyoncé texting Meghan Markle that she was “selected to break generational curses that need to be healed”.
In volume two of Harry & Meghan, which hit Netflix Thursday, the Duchess of Sussex, 41, was touched when the music superstar, 41, reached out to her the day after her and Prince Harry’s interview with Oprah Winfrey aired in March 2021.
In episode six, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex worked side by side in their sunny home office in Montecito, California, when Meghan said, “Beyoncé just texted” as Prince Harry, 38, theatrically gasped.
“Just checking in,” Meghan said with a smile of the message. “I still can’t believe she knows who I am!”
“Go and call her,” Harry suggested. “No, it’s okay,” his wife replied. “She said she wants me to feel safe and protected. She admires and respects my bravery and vulnerability and thinks I was selected to break generational curses that need to be healed.”
During the wide-ranging conversation with Oprah, which aired on CBS, the California couple talked about losing police protection, escalating strain with the rest of the royal family, and the sex of their baby on the way (daughter Lilibet would be born that June). In perhaps the most shocking moments of the interview, Meghan revealed that she experienced suicidal thoughts and that within the royal family, there were “concerns and conversations about how dark [their child’s] skin might be when he’s born.”
Almost immediately after Oprah with Meghan and Harry: A CBS Primetime Special aired, the 28-time Grammy winner posted a tribute to the Duchess of Sussex on her website.
Following the interview, Prince Harry received a text from Prince William, but the couple does not read it out loud.
The duo shocked the world when they sat down with the former talk show host and dropped royal bombshells, one of which involved claims that senior members of the palace were worried about Archie’s skin color.
“They didn’t want him to be a prince . . . which would be different from protocol, and that he wasn’t going to receive security,” claimed Markle.
Markle said there was “the conversation of, ‘He won’t be given security. He’s not going to be given a title.’ And also concerns and conversations about how dark his skin might be when he’s born.”
Both Prince Harry and Markle declined to name who made the alleged comments.
Over the course of the interview with Winfrey, Markle revealed that Harry had conversations with a member of the royal family about “how dark” the skin of their then-unborn son Archie would be.
She also discussed her depression after becoming a member of the royal family and how palace officials dissuaded her from seeking treatment for her mental health issues.
Prince Harry and Markle first met Beyoncé at the London premiere of The Lion King in 2019.
