The Duchess revealed that “stress and isolation” drove her to contemplate taking her own life while she was pregnant.

“I just didn’t want to be alive anymore,” adding that she “thought it would solve everything for everyone.”

Meghan also said she had suicidal thoughts and struggled with her mental health after joining the Royal family.

She went further to reveal that she told a senior Palace official that she wanted to get treatment for her depression, but was denied because it would “look bad.”
