Meghan Markle opens up on private struggles she faces 'every day' since romance with Harry

Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, meets advocates during a visit to Batyr, a mental health engagement programme, at Swinburne University of Technology on April 16, 2026.

Prince Harry and Meghan's romance first became public in 2016 and since then, the Duchess of Sussex said she has faced an onslaught of online abuse every single day. She opened up about her private struggles with trolling during a visit to Batyr, a mental health engagement programme at Swinburne University of Technology in Melbourne.

Prince Harry joined his wife for this visit, where Meghan discussed the realisation she came to after being the "most trolled person" in the world. In a conversation with young advocates she declared, "Every day for ten years, I've been bullied and attacked, and I was the most trolled person in the entire world. Man or woman. But I'm still here."
