Royal staffers accuse Meghan of bullying
Staffers allege the duchess occasionally reduced them to tears.
In clips released earlier this week by CBS, the couple opens up to Winfrey about royal life before stepping down last year.
In one of the clips, Winfrey says there was \"no subject that was off limits\" and asks Meghan if she was \"silent or silenced.\"
Meghan remains silent as Winfrey interjects, \"Almost unsurvivable -- sounds like there was a breaking point.\"
Harry shared a similar sentiment in an interview that aired last week with \"The Late Late Show\" host James Corden, saying he and Meghan left a \"toxic\" media environment in the U.K.
\"There was a really difficult environment, as I think a lot of people saw. We all know what the British press can be like, and it was destroying my mental health,\" said Harry, who has recently waged legal battles with some British tabloids. \"I was like, 'This is toxic,' so I did what any husband and any father would do, which is like, I need to get my family out of here.\"
