Another agreed: “Wonder what she’s worried about. She looks extremely tense.”

Later in the interview, Pauley said: “This is a modest beginning, you know, it’s not an army of parents yet.” At that point Meghan could be seen smiling, but users thought she may have not been pleased with the comment.

“Meghan Markle did not like Jane Pauley’s comment about their parent’s group launch being a modest beginning,” they commented.

Now royal expert Richard Fitzwilliams has shared his insights on the impact of the interview on Meghan and Harry’s public perception. “Their body language seemed serious which was appropriate for the topic under discussion,” he observed.

“This was aimed at an American audience and will have gone down well. […] Her programme about entertaining and cookery for Netflix is reportedly ready and her lifestyle brand American Riviera Orchard is gradually being launched. This CBS interview will be seen as a positive and a boost for Archewell, their charitable foundation.

“Newsweek has reported better polling figures for Meghan earlier in the year and their forthcoming trip to Colombia, linked to the campaign against online bullying, is certain to be handled so it gets the maximum publicity.”
