behind the drapes and doors.
While Meghan dished on what she'd faced,
Prince Harry claimed he'd been disgraced.

It was a royal shaft.
As Oprah quizzed the royal pair,
A royal tension filled the air.
The Sussex twosome spoke quite frank
of Windsor woes and more.
They spilled the beans ‘bout racial hate
that hides behind the Palace gate.

can weather such a storm?
