John Oliver was bold with Meghan Markle’s controversial interview on Monday. (Watch the video below.)
Talking to Jimmy Fallon on “The Tonight Show,” Oliver offered his comically distorted view of the Duchess’s claim that the palace expressed concern about the color of her son Archie’s skin before he was born. She also accused the royal family of failing to defend her from false tabloid stories and of denying her therapy when she felt suicidal.
“The only person I think was very happy about this is Prince Andrew,” said Oliver. “I imagine he is nudging the royal family: ‘Can you believe what Meghan did, huh? Do you believe that? Dragging the name of this family into disrepute. Shaming us, right? ‘”
The “Last Week Tonight” host, of course, was mocking the prince, who is involved in his own scandal involving allegations of sexual abuse and reports of his friendship with the late child sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein.
