Meghan Markle will, reportedly, get $1 million if she does an exclusive tell-all interview with no less than Oprah Winfrey. She won't keep the money for her own though and will likely donate this to the nurses and doctors battling coronavirus at the NHS in the U.K.
According to Page Six, sources close to Meghan dished that Oprah is going to interview the Duchess of Sussex about her royal exit with Prince Harry. The Duchess of Sussex is, reportedly, giving it some "serious thoughts" since the million-dollar payoff may be donated to the frontline workers. The money may also be used to kick off the Archewell foundation that Prince Harry and Meghan have registered and establish to replace Sussex Royal.
The planned interview will follow in the vein of Princess Diana's explosive tell-all with Martin Bashir in the 1990s. The Princess of Wales opened up in that chat to tell the whole world that her marriage to Prince Charles broke down because he was having an affair with Camilla, now the Duchess of Cornwall.
However, if Meghan actually does the interview with Winfrey, viewers will have to wait to watch until the pandemic is over. Apparently, the Sussexes are concerned and careful not to draw any backlash again. They were heavily criticized for revealing the name of their new foundation while a public health crisis has been ongoing.
Royal biographer Phil Dampier called out the Duke and Duchess of Sussex for revealing Archewell at an appalling timing since everyone is anxious about the coronavirus. Dampier said that the Sussexes should have waited a while to share details of their latest foundation, no matter if it's for a good cause.
However, Prince Harry and Meghan were prompted to announce Archewell's name after The Telegraph got hold of its public documents. Since it's already out there, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex confirmed that they are indeed setting up Archewell but emphasized that it will be launched when the crisis is over.
Meanwhile, aside from fielding interviews to earn their private income, Prince Harry will, reportedly, continue to work with Travalyst. Daily Mail uncovered records that the Duke of Sussex registered the sustainable tourism non-profit under his royal name, minus the His Royal Highness (HRH) title. In February, Prince Harry launched Travalyst in Edinburgh and told those around him that they can just simply refer to him as Harry since he is no longer a working royal.
