Meghan Markle has made a heartfelt confession about leaving her two children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, behind to attend events, during a new TV interview. The Duchess of Sussex features on the latest episode of Drew Barrymore show, which is set to air later today.
During the interview, Meghan, who is promoting her brand, As Ever, and Netflix show, With Love, Meghan, makes various comments about her family life, including what her and Prince Harry’s children’s accents are like. In another segment, the duchess delves into their bedtime routine and says that whenever she cannot read them bedtime stories herself, she records herself so Archie and Lili can always see her being with them. She said: “I’ll always make it a point when I’m travelling if I can’t do bedtime stories with my kids—because Archie and Lili are just three and five—I’ll pack a really thin book and I’ll videotape myself reading it, so whoever’s with them, or papa, can say, ‘Here’s mama reading your bedtime story.'”
Meghan added: “You find ways to show up for each other.
“And if that’s the one thing I can convey through the show, or through As Ever as a brand, I want people to know you can show up for each other, because you know how good it feels when someone shows up for you.”
Elsewhere, host and actress Drew Barrymore asks her: “What’s your favourite thing that you see in your kids that you go, ‘Oh, that’s their dad’ ?”
Meghan replies: “Oh, some of the words that they still say with a British accent.
“So they’ll say, ‘Zebra,’ and what else do they say? They have these little moments where it comes out.
“They have very American accents, but they say words that are just like him, and I think it’s adorable. Zebra is a good one.”
It comes as Meghan officially launched her As Ever brand earlier this week just hours after her series With Love, Meghan began on Netflix.
Meghan’s updated website revealed her first products were raspberry jam, and the flower sprinkles she repeatedly promotes throughout the show.
