Meghan Markle Talks Inspiration Behind Children’s Book ‘The Bench’ In First Interview Since Speaking With Oprah

Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, discusses her new children’s book, The Bench, in a new interview that marks her first since she and husband Prince Harry dropped some revelatory bombshells in their sit-down with Oprah Winfrey earlier this year.

Speaking with NPR, she explained how the idea for the book sprang from the present she gave Harry on his first Father’s Day. “As most of us do, you go, what am I going to get them as a gift?

And I thought I just wanted something sentimental and a place for him to have as a bit of a home base with our son,” she said in the interview, which was conducted before she and Harry welcomed their second child, daughter Lilibet, earlier this month.
