Meghan said:

“I’ve spoken before about the miscarriage we went through, and I think in a parallel way, you have to learn how to detach from something you had so much hope and promise for. At some point, you have to find a way to be okay with letting go of something you had planned to love for a very long time.”

Saujani responded emotionally, saying that Meghan’s words felt deeply personal and insightful, almost as if she were reading from her own diary.

Prince Harry also wrote about the miscarriage in his memoir Spare. He described how he and Meghan both cried and how powerless he felt as they left the hospital with their unborn child.

He wrote about taking the small remains to a private place known only to them. There, beneath a banyan tree, while Meghan wept, he dug a small hole with his hands and gently laid the remains in the ground.

Meghan’s latest comments come after the first episode of her podcast, where she also revealed that she experienced a serious medical scare after giving birth.

In that earlier episode, Meghan and her guest, Bumble founder Whitney Wolfe Herd, discussed their similar experiences with postpartum preeclampsia.

According to Mayo Clinic, postpartum preeclampsia is a rare condition that can happen after childbirth and involves high blood pressure and excess protein in the urine. It requires quick medical treatment because, if left untreated, it can lead to seizures and other serious complications.
