Meghan Markle opens up about her experience being bullied, admits to past suicidal thoughts in emotional CBS interview
Meghan Markle said she hasn’t “scraped the surface” of her experience of being bullied while opening up about her past suicidal thoughts.
On Sunday, the Duchess of Sussex and her husband, Prince Harry, launched The Parents’ Network to support parents who lost children directly or indirectly to social media.
While speaking about online bullying and its effects on young kids, Markle spoke about how her own experience connected her to these families.
“When you’ve been through any level of pain or trauma, I believe part of our healing journey — certainly part of mine — is being able to be really open about it,” she told Jane Pauley on “CBS Sunday Morning.”
“And you know, 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,” she added.
“So, if me voicing what I have overcome will save someone, or encourage someone in their life to really genuinely check in on them and not assume that the appearance is good, so everything’s okay, then that’s worth it. I’ll take a hit for that.”
In a 2021 interview with Oprah Winfrey, Markle, 43, revealed she had suicidal ideation while pregnant with son Archie due to the pressure of dealing with life as a royal and her treatment at the hands of the British media.
