Are your wigs still on you or HAVE THEY BEEN SNATCHED? CBS did clue us in on the "pretty shocking" things said, but could anything have prepared us for this jaw-dropper? In what is a legendary interview that will go down history and possibly abolish the Monarchy, Prince Harry and wife Meghan Markle sat down with Oprah Winfrey to discuss life after leaving their senior royal positions.
Concerns over their child's skin colour, not granted a title or royal protection, to Markle's suicidal thoughts partially due to press harassment and comparisons to Kate Middleton (amongst the other things mentioned about the Duchess of Cambridge). It's a lot to take in, and a lot to take seriously. But while we let the heavy topics of enduring racism and double standards sink in, let us commoners have a chance to deal with all the drama the best way we know how—memes.

IT WAS ALL OPRAH'S AMAZING SKILLS
I have missed Oprah’s seamless transitions between curious observer, fun high school guidance counselor, and world’s greatest detective.
