Meghan Markle Reveals Exactly What Beyoncé Texted Her After Her Oprah Interview

While much of volume II of Netflix’s docuseries Harry & Meghan explores what led Meghan Markle and Prince Harry to step back as senior working royal family members and the royal family’s negative reaction to it, one celebrity moment made the final episode—and speaks volumes about those who supported Meghan and Harry in their early days as post-royals.

In the final episode, Meghan was filmed receiving a text from Beyoncé(!) after the couple’s tell-all Oprah interview aired in March 2021. Yes, they have each other’s numbers.

Meghan and Harry were being filmed in their Montecito, California, home’s joint office. Meghan received the message and said aloud, “Beyonce just texted,” per Variety.

Harry mock-gasped and quipped, “Shut up!”

“[She’s] just checking in. I still can’t believe she knows who I am,” Meghan continued before paraphrasing Bey’s text to her: “She said she wants me to feel safe and protected. She admits and respects my bravery and vulnerability and thinks I was selected to break generational curses that need to be healed.”

“That’s well said,” Harry said.
