i want to get some reaction to all of this from ana stewart in windsor england. you've certainly covered the royal wedding and other events with the duke and duchess of sussex. out of everything they've said what are making headlines in the u.k.? >> reporter: well, we were all prepared to have some bombshells dropped. i don't think everyone was prepared to feel so concerned by some of the revelations that came out of this interview. and i think some of the big headlines is certainly meghan felt suicidal at times when she was in the u.k. as a working member of the royal family. she asked for help from the palace, from the royal family and she says she didn't receive any. and then there was the shocking claim not only was there sort of racist undertones to the media's reporting of meghan but also within the royal family. meghan says prince harry had a conversation with a member of his family about what the color of their child's skin would be. and this was in the early stages of meghan's pregnancy. take a listen. >> and also concerns and conversations about how dar

windsor where she's based, frog more cottage, the sussexes as base as well. going to have to sit around a table, a virtual table, of course, and try to work out how to deal, unpick all of the many elements here that are challenging to the monarchy. on top of the list you have them there, the race issue. the neglect issue. they are subjects they have to address somehow. the british public want answers on that, but they're very sensitive issues. is everyone too emotional to deal with them rationally? there will be lots of aides weighing in. i don't know if the prime minister has as well. very complex matters. that's why it's taking longer for this to come out. i have to say, don, in the last couple of hours, reports coming out of the u.k. papers the queen was presented with a statement but she wasn't comfortable with it, didn't want to sign it off. does that mean was it too aggressive for her, written by charles or william. we just don't know. waiting for details will come tomorrow. >> max foster, thank you very much. appreciate your reporting. if you or someon
