Oprah Winfrey’s primetime television interview with the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, revealed deep issues within the workings of a historic institution, one we only read about in books or watch on fictional shows like “The Crown.” While the former senior members of the royal family were talking about their feelings and treatment under the backdrop of family dynamics, they were also discussing a monarchy with an institutional framework that can best be compared to a corporate workplace. References to their family as “the firm” and “going to HR” for assistance were phrases used by Harry and Meghan when discussing the institution.
