CJ: Hello there, I’m Dr Cobalt Jackson. After a little legal snag in our otherwise blossoming friendship, Meghan and Harry Meghan Markle Windsor have returned to discuss issues as diverse as upcoming book releases, further media criticism and Meghan's recent reaching of a birthday milestone. Meghan, Harry, welcome.
Meg: Hello, lovely to see you again.
Harry. Yeah, sorry about the litigation.
CJ: No problem at all; nothing like a nice refreshing trial to clear the foggy misunderstanding from the air.
(Meghan nods)
Har: Well said.
CJ: In the spirit of such de-smogification, I want to ask you Harry about the upcoming release of your book, or series of books we are led to believe, is that correct?
Harr: There might be more than one.
(harry looks smug)
CJ: The book has been described by yourself as a : 'wholly truthful first-hand account' of you life.
Meg: Harry hasn’t had the ability, ya know, right, until this point in his life: he can now open up and really tell the truth about his experiences.
CJ: Is that something you’ve encouraged Meghan?
Har: Oh yeah, she’s been a backbone support; before meeting her I used to spend too much time being happy to properly concentrate on my mental health.
Meg: Harry (concerned)
Har: Encourage? Not just encourage! That’s not going far enough! She’s been on about me revealing my side of the story since we first met!
Meg: Errr, that’s not true, actually, I’ve never encouraged Harry to speak about his past, I’ve only ever supported his need to explain, right?
Har: No she’s never encouraged me, actually, just supported me in my desire to show that everything has been so unfair!
CJ: It’s clearly a very personal affair, would you share some details of the writing process? Har: It’s all about diet. Diet and stamina. I awake at 6:30, turn my alarm off, then sleep until 9. I stretch, eat some porridge oats with apricots and some jasmine tea.
CJ: Hmmm. Do you like earl grey?
Har. Love it. Anyway, stretches after breakfast: bit of yoga, Meghan says my downward facing dog looks like a poorly erected yurt, in such a sweet way.
(megahn smiles)
Har: Muffin for elevensies and then I’m at the writing desk; thinking cap on and focused eyes.
Meg: We’ve hired someone to write the book.
Har: Yeah, I haven’t been on active writing duties, but I do make an effort to sit next to him, whilst he’s writing, and juggle, or something.
CJ. How droll. Penguin the publisher have billed the release an : "an intimate and heartfelt memoir from one of the most fascinating and influential global figures of our time."
(Harry throws his hand as if to say, get away)
CJ: And you yourself have said about the book, and I quote: "I've worn many hats over the years, both literally and figuratively, and my hope is that in telling my story—the highs and lows, the mistakes, the lessons learned—I can help show that no matter where we come from, we have more in common than we think.”
(Meghan smirks in acknowledgement)
CJ: But what about those who point out that you reside in an opulence out of the grasp of those you otherwise have so much in common with?
Har: They're ignorant. Don’t they know that I’m giving the proceeds to charity?
CJ: Which is very noble of you Harry; but there have been no declarations about where the 15 million dollar plus advance is going?
Har: For chrissake, do you know how hard juggling is?
