When asked by The Telegraph newspaper about the interview, Prince Edward said, "Oprah, who?" and Sophie quipped "What interview?"
The Countess also pointed out how nice it was to have a "lengthy chat" with Prince Harry after the Prince Philip's funeral, insisting the couple are "still family no matter what".

Sophie also defended Justin Welby, the Archbishop of Canterbury, who famously asked Oprah what she did for a living at Harry and Meghan's wedding.
"You know, if you're not into chat shows, there's no reason why you should know who she is. Certainly not in this country, anyway," she said.
In response to the interview, the Royal Family previously said in a statement: "The whole family is saddened to learn the full extent of how challenging the last few years have been for Harry and Meghan. The issues raised, particularly that of race, are concerning. While some recollections may vary, they are taken very seriously and will be addressed by the family privately. Harry, Meghan and Archie will always be much loved family members."
