Meghan Markle is no stranger to the tabloids, but before her separation from Royal engagements in 2021, Markle revealed in a very candid interview while on a trip to South Africa, that she in fact was struggling managing being a new mother in the midst of all the press.
During this quick interview, a journalist asked Markle if she was okay, to which she responded, "Any woman, especially when they're pregnant, you're really vulnerable. So, that was made really challenging, and, then when you have a newborn, and especially as a woman, it's a lot."
She then paused and added, "Also thank you for asking because not many people have asked if I'm okay," she said, "But it's a very real thing to be going through behind the scenes." When the interviewer pressed further and asked if she was indeed struggling, Markle just simply replied, "Yes".
This candid response gave viewers an inside glimpse into the new mother, and it was refreshingly honest. Little did we know that a year and a half later, she would reveal just how much she was struggling.
