Royal news – live: Meghan Markle claims she hasn’t ‘scraped the surface’ of her experience within royal family
Meghan Markle said she wasn’t ‘believed’ when suffering from suicidal thoughts
Meghan Markle has claimed that she has not “scraped the surface” of her negative experiences within the royal family.
The Duchess of Sussex, 43, opened up about struggling with suicidal ideation in a new interview with Prince Harry.
“I’d never want someone else to be making those sort of plans,” she told CBS Sunday Morning.
The couple are supporting a new initiative to help parents of children who have taken their lives after being bullied online.
This comes after Harry and Meghan announced they will visit Colombia for four days following the success of their unofficial tour of Nigeria – after declaring the UK too dangerous to visit.
Harry, 39, said he will not bring Meghan back to his home country without state-funded personal security because he fears a “knife or acid attack”.
The couple were invited to Colombia by Vice President Francia Marquez, but the trip’s exact details are not known.
A representative for the Sussexes told The Independent that they will be provided with “full security detail” for the visit.

Kid Rock didn’t hold back, declaring: “You bring a man in a dress to the Super Bowl? Then don’t call it football, call it a circus.” To him, the Super Bowl stage isn’t just another performance — it’s the moment the whole world is watching, a symbol of strength and American spirit. That’s why he fiercely opposed the idea of Bad Bunny, a man with an eccentric dress-wearing style, headlining the show. He made his stance clear: “I’ll walk away as an NFL fan if they let Bad Bunny take that stage. This isn’t just a bad choice — it’s an insult to American music.” Details 👇
