Meghan Markle and Prince Harry recently appeared in their first joint interview since 2021, speaking in support of their latest initiative.

The Duchess of Sussex opened up about her decision to share her personal struggle with suicidal ideations, a topic that remains deeply personal and vital to her advocacy work.

On Sunday, Meghan and Harry sat down with CBS Sunday Morning‘s host Jane Pauley to discuss their new initiative aimed at raising awareness about the dangers social media poses to children.

During the interview, the couple emphasized their work with parents whose children have tragically lost their lives due to the negative impact of online bullying.

Reflecting on her 2021 interview with Oprah Winfrey, where she first publicly discussed her mental health struggles, Meghan shared the importance of being open about such experiences.

“There is a through-line, I think, when you’ve been through any level of pain or trauma,” Meghan said. “I believe part of our healing journey, certainly part of mine, is being able to be really open about it. And I haven’t really scraped the surface on my experience, but I do think that I would never want someone else to feel that way and I would never want someone else to be making those sort of plans and I would never want someone else to not be believed.”

During her interview with Oprah, Meghan, who was pregnant with Princess Lilibet at the time, recalled a particularly distressing moment when she sought help from the institution. “I went to the institution, and I said that I needed to go somewhere to get help. I said that ‘I’ve never felt this way before, and I need to go somewhere,’” she recalled. “And I was told that I couldn’t, that it wouldn’t be good for the institution.”
