Lack of touch and sensitivity. Oprah Winfrey’s words, cold and interested, have come at the wrong time, at the worst moment of pain and national mourning. The family and the entire country mourn the death of Elizabeth II. The presenter has slipped that she hopes that the death of the monarch will help Harry and Meghan to make peace with The Firm (the Windsors) and to launch this opinion she has used the words “bury the dead”. The reactions have not been long in coming, according to the Daily Mail.
Oprah Winfrey was the architect of the interview with Harry and Meghan, which fell like a cluster bomb in Buckingham. The racism that the actress said she had suffered in the palace (and not only her, but also her baby Archie, alluding to her skin color) caused a stir and provoked an official statement from the Royal House. Now, a year after the interview of her life, the presenter returns to pour opinions about the Windsors and her complicated relationship with the Dukes of Sussex after Megxit.
Winfrey has commented that ‘burying the dead’ can help Prince Harry and Meghan make ‘peace’ with the British royals. The statements, to Extra, have raised a wave of criticism, which disfigures the presenter and neighbor of the dukes’ house in Montecito (Los Angeles) with her insensitive words: “When all the families come together for a common ceremony, the ritual of bury your dead… There’s a chance to make amends.” The networks do not forgive this lack of tact and demand an apology: “She forgets that she started this,” says a user, referring to the explosive interview.
