Meghan was just as giddy over the text. “I still can’t believe she knows who I am,” she said, smiling. Harry then urged Meghan to “go and call her” but she demurred. “No, it’s okay,” she said because Beyoncé had already shared a sweet message for her.
“She said she wants me to feel safe and protected. She admires and respects my bravery and vulnerability and thinks I was selected to break generational curses that need to be healed,” Meghan said, to which Harry responded, “Well said.”
