Both Harry and Meghan declined to name the person who made the comments and Winfrey has since clarified the Duke of Sussex made it clear it was neither the Queen or Prince Philip.

Meghan also claimed Archie was not eligible for palace security due to his lack of a royal title, saying the decision not to make him a prince or princess was taken out of their hands.

Harry and Meghan's interview with Winfrey aired in the US on Sunday local time and will be broadcast in the UK in the coming hours.
