SHOCKER! Oprah Winfrey gets slammed following her comment on Queen’s death

Many celebrities and world leaders around the globe have expressed their feelings and tributes towards the late Queen Elizabeth 11 of England.

In a similar vein, world acclaimed top talk show host, actress and entrepreneur Oprah Winfrey has shared feelings as the American television personality expressed her hopes that the death of Queen Elizabeth could serve as a tool to reunite and heal the rift in the Royal Family.

It was understood that Oprah famously sat down with Meghan Markle and Prince Harry for a candid interview which aired last week, with many believing that this widened the rift between the Duke and Duchess of Sussex and the Royal family.

National Daily learned that after the news broke of the Her Majesty’s death on Thursday, at the age of 96, the 68-year-old The Butler actress was questioned on whether she thinks that the issues in the Royal Family can be healed now.

‘I think in all families – my father passed recently, this summer – and when all families come together for a common ceremony, the ritual of burying your dead, there’s an opportunity for peacemaking,’ she replied to Extra.

‘And hopefully, there will be that.’

In another chat, with Gayle King on CBS, Oprah explained that she never ‘set out’ to have a ‘bombshell’ interview, insisting that she stays out of ‘family matters’.

‘I didn’t set out to do a bombshell interview, I set out to do an interview, have a conversation that would allow them to tell their story,’ she vowed.

‘I do not get into people’s family matters. Everybody who has experienced some challenges in their family with in-laws, or brothers or sisters, knows how difficult some of those situations can be.

‘I’m sure that, for the royal family, it’s no different. No one consults me about their family business, so I try and stay out of people’s family business.’

However, her comments have divided people on social media, with many claiming that she is ‘backtracking’ after the monarch’s death

A follower questioned: ‘”I do not get into people’s family matters”  What did you think they were going to talk about in the interview? The weather?’

‘It was a bombshell interview it was hyped up like that for weeks prior,’ one said. ‘Oprah also said, “No topics are off limits”. Stop back peddling.’

However, others were upset with the suggestion that Oprah was the one who ‘started’ the rift, and stood in agreement with her comments hoping for peace within the family.

‘I agree with Oprah, life’s to short, pray there will be peace between them [sic],’ a fan penned.

As one tweeted: ‘And I stand with what @Oprah [said]. I hope coming together to bury the Queen helps them bury some of the issues that broke them and aid in their reconciliation with their living family. No lies told [sic].’

During the controversial interview, which aired on CBS last March, the Duke and Duchess opened up about their time in the Royal Family and alleged that unnamed members had ‘concerns and conversations’ about how ‘dark’ the skin of her son Archie would be.

‘Those were conversations family had with him,’ the former Suits actress claimed. ‘They didn’t want him to be a prince or princess, not knowing what the gender would be, which would be different from protocol, and that he wasn’t going to receive security.’

Meghan also said that she felt suicidal due to the scrutiny placed on her after becoming a member of the Royal Family, alleging she received no support for her mental health issues after she asked a senior member of the institution for help.
