The 57-year-old opened up with Jenna Bush Hager about the interview and the reasoning behind the royal couple’s decision to step away from their royal duties and move to California. When talking about racism, she related to her own difficulties of living a life of public service. She said that public service is a “bright, sharp, hot spotlight, and most people don’t understand it, and nor should they.
Michelle also pointed out the concerns on Archie’s skin color as “heartbreaking to hear, that she felt like she was in her own family — her own family thought differently of her.” She added, “As I said before, the race isn’t a new construct in this world for people of color, and so it wasn’t a complete surprise to hear her feelings and to have them articulated.”
