*Meghan Markle is finally speaking out about the pressures of being a new mother and member of the British Royal family.

On Friday, ITV released a new clip from their documentary “Harry & Meghan: An African Journey,” which takes viewers behind-the-scenes of the couple’s recent tour of southern Africa. In it, the Duchess of Sussex speaks to Tom Bradby about the negative press during her pregnancy with son Archie, born May 6.

“Any woman, especially when they’re pregnant, you’re really vulnerable, and so that was made really challenging. And then when you have a newborn, you know. And especially as a woman, it’s a lot,” she said. “So you add this on top of just trying to be a new mom or trying to be a newlywed. It’s um…yeah. I guess, also thank you for asking because not many people have asked if I’m okay, but it’s a very real thing to be going through behind the scenes.”

Bradby asked if it “would be fair” to say that she’s “not really okay, as in it’s really been a struggle?” to which Meghan responds, “Yes.”

Prince Harry also opened up about the pressures of his royal duties in the documentary. In the Twitter video clip above, he talks about how he’s reminded of the death of his mother, Princess Diana, on a daily.

“I think being part of this family — in this role, in this job — every single time I see a camera, every single time I hear a click, every single time I see a flash, it takes me straight back,” he said. “In that respect, it’s the worst reminder of her life as oppose to the best.”

Harry also hopes to carry on his mother’s legacy through his charitable works in Africa, something Diana was also passionate about. 

“Being here now 22 years later trying to finish what she started will be incredibly emotional. But everything that I do reminds me of her,” he said. “But as I said — with the role, with the job and sort of the pressures that come with that — I get reminded of the bad stuff.”

“Harry & Meghan: An African Journey” debuts in the U.K. this Sunday.
