Why Oprah Fans Are Upset With Sophie Wessex And Prince Edward

Prince Edward and wife Sophie, Countess of Wessex, have Oprah Winfrey fans fuming after making their opinion of the infamous Oprah interview with Prince Harry and Meghan Markle known. When asked by The Telegraph if they had watched the special, Prince Edward replied, "Oprah who?" before Sophie added, "Yes, what interview?" But it seems the two were only joking. 

Changing their tune and indicating that there are no hard feelings, the Countess of Wessex said that the entire royal family is "still a family no matter what happens, we always will be." However, it's hard to know whether or not they are telling the whole story. As a family friend told Vanity Fair in April, "William and other members of the family have some very strong feelings about some of the things Harry and Meghan said on Oprah and things need to be talked through." And though the family was reunited with Prince Harry at Prince Philip's funeral, "It's going to take more than a wake to sort things out, but this is hopefully a start."

Another step in the right direction to reuniting the royal family and mending any feuds are the rumors that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, along with their children, will be in attendance at the Queen's Platinum Jubilee in 2022 (via The Sun). However, some believe this will only make matters worse. 

"Harry wants to be there. It is already causing a headache and is going to be very awkward," an insider told The Sun. "Where will they be positioned if they turn up? What events can they attend? Will we put them on the Buckingham Palace balcony for the flypast?" they continued, before adding, "This is a celebration for the Queen's 70 years of service to the nation and should not be overshadowed. There are now so many questions about what to do with Harry and Meghan."
