Stressing that she isn’t not familiar with the royal family, she said, “I’m just a human, watching from across the pond, but I couldn’t believe it… My dad doesn’t want Meghan to pay him back. But you want love from them because there is a pain in your heart if it isn’t there.”

Targetting Meghan and Harry, she said, “I almost left it too late. They could both learn from me.”
