I just didn't want to be alive anymore: Meghan Markle goes explosive in Oprah Winfrey interview

In the interview, Markle said, "That’s the sad irony of the last four years is I have advocated for so long for women to use their voice, and then I was silent."

"I just didn’t want to be alive anymore," the 39-year old added.

The couple during the interview revealed that they had lacked support from the Royal family.

Markle said concerns were also raised over their son Archie's skin colour.

Following the airing of the interview, social media went buzzing over the issue.

Here are some of the reactions:

"I’ve always thought #MeghanMarkle was stunning and seemed like a great person, but I had no idea she was one of the strongest women out there. Sending all the good vibes to her and Harry."

"Just watched The Meghan Markle interview. I saw everything I needed to know through her eyes. Im weeping. How dare they. I’m ready to fight for her."

"Honestly, #MeghanMarkle that was a hell of a way to kick off #InternationalWomensDay."

Tennis icon Serela Williams said, "I am so proud of you for being so brave. I know it is never easy. You are strong — both you and Harry. I love you. I adore you."

In a different reaction, actor-host Simi Garewal tweeted, "I don't believe a word Meghan says. Not a word. She is lying to make herself a victim. She is using the race card to gain sympathy. Evil."

"I withdraw the word 'evil'. It was excessive. Calculating would have been more appropriate..."
