Sarcastic Ellen poked fun at “Meghan, the Duchess of Sussex” during the sneak peak clip of the interview – set to air tomorrow.

Meghan stifles a giggle before launching into a discussion about the kids’ book.

Meghan and Harry can still be known as the Duke and Duchess of Sussex after being given the titles as a wedding gift at their 2018 nuptials at Windsor Castle.

But they stepped down from royal life in a desperate bid for privacy – with Meghan revealing in her Oprah interview the damaging impact royal life had had on her mental health.

Meghan goes onto discuss her children’s book The Bench in the 80-second sneak-peak clip of the highly anticipated chat.

Meghan states: “I wrote this originally just as a poem for my husband on Fathers’ Day and it was about my observation of him and him being a dad, which was the most beautiful thing to watch.

“And that was really the intention of it.

“Once it was shared with a couple of friends and people that we were close with they said: ‘This resonates with me too because it feels really inclusive and there’s representation and it’s just a sweet love story between a family.’

“And I said, well ok lets turn it into a children’s book and make sure that all those pieces of it – especially the softer side of masculinity, the softer side of fatherhood – are all in there and make sure that people can see themselves in these pages.

“Because I can remember as a little girl, you didn’t always see someone who looked like you.

“And I thought that was really important to have everyone’s story feel like it was unfolding on those pages for them.”
