Throughout the interview, Meghan also spoke about her ‘amazing’ children – Prince Archie, five, and Princess Lilibet, three

Opting for her signature natural look, Meghan wore her hair in loose waves and highlighted her beauty with a light layer of make-up.

The mother-of-two fluffed up her eyebrows with a dark pencil while adding highlighter and a creamy foundation to her skin.

A deep pink creamy lip finished off the look while black eyeliner and mascara highlighted her eyes.

Meghan and Harry spoke about child online safety in the interview, with the prince saying parents have to be ‘first responders’.

The Prince went on to say that ‘terrifyingly’ many parents do not know to ‘tell the signs of possible suicide’.

The segment unveiled the launch of the couple’s new initiative, The Parents Network, which focuses on tackling cyber abuse and child safety online.

Speaking with host Jane Pauley, the couple, who are parents to Archie, five, and Lilibet, three, said they have spoken with parents who have lost their children to suicide, which they said in many cases were linked to social media usage.

In the interview, Meghan said she was ‘just happy to be able to be a part of change for good’

Meghan – who has also been a victim of online trolling –  says she hopes discussing her suicidal thoughts will ‘help others’ feeling the same way.

In the interview, released today, she said: ‘There is a through line, when you’ve been through any level of pain or trauma.

‘Part of your healing journey, certainly part of mine is to be open about it.

‘I haven’t really scraped the surface on my experience. I would never want someone else to feel that way. I would never want someone else to be making these plan. I would never want someone else not to be believed’.

‘So if me voicing what I have overcome, will save someone, or encourage someone in their life to really genuinely check in on them, not assume the appearance is good, not assume everything is okay, then I’ll take that’.

The Duchess of Sussex told Oprah in 2021 she ‘couldn’t be left alone’ and told her husband she ‘didn’t want to be alive anymore’ before claiming the Buckingham Palace HR department ignored her plea for help because she wasn’t a ‘paid employee’.

Describing how she considered ending her life believing it ‘was better for everyone’, Meghan said: ‘I knew that if I didn’t say it, that I would do it. I just didn’t want to be alive anymore. And that was a very clear and real and frightening constant thought. I remember how he just cradled me. I said that I needed to go somewhere to get help. I said that ‘I’ve never felt this way before, and I need to go somewhere’. And I was told that I couldn’t, that it wouldn’t be good for the institution’.

The full interview has been released three years on from their bombshell interview with Oprah Winfrey.

Throughout the interview the couple speak about how parents need to protect children from online harm – reflecting on their own experiences with Prince Archie, five, and Princess Lilibet, three.

The Duchess said: ‘Our kids are young, they’re three and five, they’re amazing, but all you want to do as parents is protect them.

‘And so as we can see what’s happening in the online space, we know that there’s a lot of work to be done there and we’re just happy to be able to be a part of change for good’.

Meghan said that ‘opening up’ is part of the healing process and she hopes her candour will help others

When the broadcaster added: ‘you hope that when your children ask for help, someone is there to give it’ the Duke said only ‘if you know to help.’

‘At this point we’ve got to the stage where almost every parent needs to be a first responder,’ he said. ‘And even the best first responders in the world wouldn’t be able to tell the signs of possible suicide. That is the terrifying piece of this.’

The news comes after it was announced that the Californian-based royals will will visit Colombia for a tour later this year where they will ‘engage with leaders, youth and women’.

They will head to the South American country at some point this year after accepting an initiation from the country’s president Francia Márquez.

The exact date of the tour has not been disclosed at this time.

Throughout this time – in keeping with their latest interview – the couple will ‘engage in several activities’ related to ‘cyberbullying, online exploitation and the mental health impacts of these threats’.

Ms Márquez’s office said the couple would ‘experience the rich heritage of Colombia’ and help ‘illuminate Colombia’s role as a beacon of culture and innovation’.

She added that the visit would precede the first Global Ministerial Conference on Ending Violence Against Children, which will be in Colombia this November.

Ms Márquez said: ‘As the vice president of Colombia and minister of equality and equity, I am pleased to announce that Prince Harry and Meghan, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, have kindly accepted my invitation to visit our beautiful country.’

She added: ‘The Archewell Foundation, founded by the Duke and Duchess, is renowned for its global leadership in fostering a safer online environment.

‘The forthcoming conference will unveil a comprehensive framework for creating safer physical and digital spaces, tackling issues such as cyberbullying, online exploitation, and the mental health impacts of these threats.

 ‘It will offer actionable solutions and commitments for countries around the world. During their visit, The Duke and Duchess, as well as The Archewell Foundation, will engage in several activities related to this important topic.

‘We are confident that their visit will further illuminate Colombia’s role as a beacon of culture and innovation.’

The couple’s interview on CBS Sunday Morning will reflect on the same issues surrounding cyber abuse.

A note about the interview accompanied the clip on social media. It said: The Duke and Duchess of Sussex talk with Jane Pauley this Sunday about a new program supporting parents of children affected by online harm.’
