“I don’t want to miss those moments,” Meghan shared. “I don’t want to miss pickup if I don’t have to. I don’t want to miss drop-off.”
Reflecting on the balance between work and parenting, she said, “And I think what I do love the most about having young kids in this chapter while I’m building is the perspective that it brings because you’re building something while your child is going through potty-training, and both are just as important.”
She continued, “It’s like, ‘Great, okay, where’s the Cheerios? Well done.’ And then you’re championing your team ten minutes later about something that is really high value for the world. In your own world, that’s super high value. And in [Lili’s] world, that’s super high value,” before concluding.

Meghan Markle announced her new podcast Confessions of a Female Founder on March 13, 2025. In the post, she shared that the podcast features inspiring women who turned small ideas into successful businesses. The first episode airs on April 8th.
This isn’t her first time sharing personal stories, as she opened up about a past loss in a November 2020 New York Times op-ed.
“In the pain of our loss, my husband and I discovered that in a room of 100 women, 10 to 20 of them will have suffered from miscarriage,” Meghan shared. “Yet despite the staggering commonality of this pain, the conversation remains taboo, riddled with (unwarranted) shame, and perpetuating a cycle of solitary mourning.”
She described feeling a sharp cramp while holding Archie, who was one year old at the time. “Hours later, I lay in a hospital bed, holding my husband’s hand,” she said. “I felt the clamminess of his palm and kissed his knuckles, wet from both our tears. Staring at the cold white walls, my eyes glazed over. I tried to imagine how we’d heal.”
Later, Prince Harry reflected on that difficult time in his 2023 memoir Spare. He remembered that Meghan began showing signs of pregnancy loss on their very first morning in their new home in Montecito.
After they rushed to the hospital, he recalled observing the doctor’s body language to understand what was happening. “The doctor walked into the room, I didn’t hear one word she said, I just watched her face, her body language. I already knew. We both did,” he wrote.
The miscarriage happened in July 2020. Harry shared that the couple “both wept” and that he felt “totally hopeless” as they left the hospital with their “unborn child.”
“A tiny package,” he added. “We went to a place, a secret place only we knew. Under a spreading banyan tree, while Meg wept, I dug a hole with my hands and set the tiny package softly in the ground,” he wrote.
Meghan Markle’s openness about her postpartum struggles, motherhood, and personal loss offers a rare look into challenges often dealt with in silence.
From dealing with a life-threatening health issue to grieving a miscarriage with her husband, Prince Harry, her experiences shed light on the private struggles behind their public lives.
