Meghan Markle couldn’t help but laugh while talking about her critics.

During her interview with senior editor Ellen McGirt, Markle talked about the reactions she received while supporting the Black Lives Matter movement.

The Duchess of Sussex said that if everyone would just look back on what she said and they would realize that it is their interpretation that makes her statements inflammatory. However, Markle stressed the fact that her statements aren’t controversial.

“Actually, some of it is reactive to things that just haven't happened - in some ways I think you need to have a sense of humor about it even though there is quite a bit of gravity and there can be a lot of danger and misinterpretation of something that was never there to begin with,” she said.

The Duchess of Sussex also talked about the recent coronavirus lockdown and said that it has been amazing due to some personal reasons. After all, the lockdown meant she was able to spend much time with Prince Harry and their son, Archie.

“In addition to, of course, how we can be a part of the change of energy that so many people are craving right now and whatever we can do to help in that capacity,” she said.

Markle ended her interview with a quote from American artist, George O’Keefe.

“I have already settled it for myself so flattery and criticism go down the same drain and I am quite free,” she said.

Meanwhile, Markle also made headlines this today amid reports that she lost her battle against Mail on Sunday. Judge Francesca Kaye gave the Associated Newspapers Ltd permission to amend its defense to add further particulars in relation to Finding Freedom.

Mail on Sunday is questioning why the authors of Finding Freedom were able to use excerpts from Markle’s private letters to her dad, Thomas Markle Sr. and they weren’t sued by the Sussexes.

But when Mail on Sunday published the letters years ago, Markle and Prince Harry claimed that it was an intrusion of privacy.

However, Markle’s defense team, Schillings, said that the publisher’s defense has no merit and is in fact false.

“This latest hearing was, unfortunately, another step in a case that has already been drawn out by a defendant who uses the legal process to exploit the Duchess's privacy and the privacy of those around her for profit-motivated clickbait rather than journalism,” they said.

The court hearing for Markle’s case against Mail on Sunday will commence in January.
