Meghan Markle has opened up on her love for love Prince Harry and says he “Slayed the Dragon, saved the Princess” for Their Marriage adding, “That Man Loves Me So Much”.

Speaking of her happiness in her first ever podcast interview as well as the challenges she has faced since joining the Royal Family, the Duchess of Sussex, 43, said: "That man loves me so much. Look what we've built? We have a beautiful life, we have two healthy children.”

Appeared on The Jamie Kern Lima Show, a podcast hosted by the founder of IT Cosmetics, Meghan gave a tearful summary of her life in the public eye.

The mother of Prince Archie, five, and Princess Lilibet, three, said: “It's not something to be taken for granted when you have a partner, a spouse, who is just so behind you. H, that man loves me so much. Look what we've built? We have a beautiful life, we have two healthy, beautiful children."

She went on to make an analogy of their relationship, adding: "I always think about it like the end of Super Mario Bros. When you get to the final, final level and they go, 'Slay the dragon, save the princess.' I'm like, that's my husband.

"He's constantly going to do whatever he can to make sure that our family is safe and protected, and we're uplifted and still make time for date nights.

“I feel like it’s more of a honeymoon period for us now. He’s also a fox. If you haven’t noticed my husband is very very handsome. His heart is even more beautiful.

Meghan's comparison of their relationship to the Nintendo game comes five years after the couple stepped back from Royal duties in 2020 and moved to Meghan's native California.

She said: “We spend so much of our life trying to prove something, to prove that you’re enough, to prove that you’re pretty enough, to prove that you’re smart enough, to prove that you’re a good wife or a good friend. I was like, I am so done with the prove it game. I know that I’m a great friend, I know the kind of mom I am. I know the kind of human being I am and I know how I show up and I love being that sort of person with the people I love. So, you know, maybe part of worthiness starts when you stop trying to be part of the ‘prove it’ game..“

Since then, Prince Harry has focused on his philanthropic efforts, including meeting with California firefighters fighting the Pacific Palisades and Altadena wildfires in January 2025.

He returned for a second year in a row to the Living Legends of Aviation ceremony, held at the Beverly Hilton Hotel on Friday, April 25, to honour the fire department in California.

“This past January, when fires swept through over 50 square miles of Los Angeles County — threatening homes, businesses, communities — we saw that spirit in action. We saw courage. We saw commitment. And we saw an extraordinary group of men and women take to the skies, also risking their lives to protect people they would never meet," the Duke of Sussex said.

Yesterday, we told how Meghan revealed the facial feature that prevented her from being offered deals from beauty brands. The Duchess of Sussex has admitted beauty brands were reluctant to hire her even after she found fame in the TV show Suits.

She claims one aspect of her complexion was the cause of their decision to avoid offering her deals. Meghan, 43, starred as Rachel Zane for seven years on the legal series Suits, but prior to hitting it big in entertainment, her commercial agent hit major roadblocks.

The As Ever lifestyle brand founder, who went makeup-free to record the chat, discussed challenges in the beauty industry during an episode of The Jamie Kern Lima Show.

She says companies were not keen because of her natural, freckled complexion.

"That would have been when I was an actor auditioning for commercials," Markle said. "And I remember my commercial agent could not submit me for beauty or skincare ads because I had freckles."

She added, "They’re like, ‘No, no, no, no. It’s just never going to work because freckles aren’t a sign of beauty.’"
