From Good Housekeeping

  • CBS has announced that Oprah Winfrey will interview Prince Harry and Meghan, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, for a CBS primetime special.

  • The special will be broadcast on Sunday, March 7. Here's how to watch and what you can expect from the landmark interview.


It's been just over a year since Prince Harry and Meghan Markle first announced they were going to step back from their royal duties in January of 2020. Since then, they've lived a quiet life in the United States with their 1-year-old son, Archie. Now, they're gearing up to talk about that decision—plus what life out of the public eye has been like in the year since.

On March 7, Oprah will sit down for a CBS primetime special interview with the Duke and Duchess of Sussex. According to a press release from CBS, our O of O will speak with the couple in a wide-ranging interview that will begin with Meghan, The Duchess of Sussex, about marriage, motherhood, and how she handled life under public pressure. The duo will then be joined by Prince Harry as the couple opens up about their move to the United States and their future hopes and dreams.

Those hopes and dreams include expanding their family. On Valentine's Day—the same holiday his mother Princess Diana announced, back in 1984, that she was was pregnant Prince Harry—the couple announced they are expecting.

Oprah has a longstanding relationship with both Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, whom she shared in December also happen to be her neighbors in Santa Barbara, California. In 2019, Oprah announced she was teaming up with Apple and Prince Harry for a multi-part series that will focus on mental health and mental wellness, a project that is still in production.

That same year, she also publicly defended Meghan Markle, telling Gayle King on CBS This Morning that she believed Markle was "being treated unfairly" by the press. She went on to say: “I feel that if people really knew her, they would know that she is not only everything you perceive her as being–graceful and dynamic in holding that position–but that she just has a wonderful warm, giving, funny heart. I see all the crazy press around her, and I think it's really unfair."
