When Whoopi, 68, asked the panel what their responses were to watching the royal video, Alyssa, 34, responded: “I’m guilty of having fun with ‘where’s Kate?’ and thinking it’s funny.” and share the memes and play with it.

“I forgot something fundamental, that we all know, which is that every person, whether it’s a princess, someone in a very privileged position, or just the person next to you, is dealing with personal struggles that we don’t know about.”

Alyssa continued: ‘Sending you my love and strength because, sure, the palace totally mishandled the PR of this, but the public handled it badly.

“We didn’t give her an ounce… we didn’t, you did, a lot of other people did, but I didn’t think, ‘There’s something more serious here that she’s dealing with,’ and I feel really bad about that.

“And it’s just a reminder because all of us, being to a lesser degree but in the public eye, see casual cruelty and meanness and, as a society, we’re quick to jump on that and join the bandwagon and think it’s have fun and forget it.” that these are real human beings who are going through something.

Sara, 46, chimed in and added: ‘That diagnosis is just heartbreaking. I was sitting with my best friend, who had breast cancer when she was 30 and has a young daughter, and watching her relive her own moment was tragic.

“When the conspiracy theories started, I thought, ‘We shouldn’t bother.’ The part that got me was the way the palace handled it because when they published that photo and then they had to issue a murder because it wasn’t reliable, and then another source, that made me think, “OMG, what the hell is wrong here?

Then he turned to Alyssa and continued, ‘But I think you talk about the most important part, which is that you never know what someone is going through. I’ve always questioned the way the royal family handles women because whether it’s Princess Diana or Fergie or Meghan Markle…’

At times, the future queen became very emotional as she talked about her illness and her family and told her children that “it will be okay.”

‘I wasn’t blaming Kate for what was happening. I was really upset with the way it was handled, you could debate whether it should have been my business or not, but now I just hope for a quick recovery, and she assured everyone that she is getting the best care and I know that is very important. Let her children know that she is in good hands.”

‘I think I could have led like that, sorry guys!’ Alyssa laughed as Sunny continued, ‘I deeply regret that Alyssa also took me down the rabbit hole because I generally don’t care much about royals.

“I was very interested in how Meghan Markle says she was treated and that it almost drove her to suicide, so that’s a part of the family dynamic that interested me a lot and I read about it and watched the interview that Prince Harry “And Meghan had with Oprah, but other than that, I never cared much.”

When her co-host Ana Navarro chimed in and reminded Sunny that she had even had her husband, Emmanuel, study recent photos of Kate Middleton, the lawyer responded, “Because I went down this crazy rabbit hole, thanks to my co-hosts and myself.” “. … I have to take the blame for that because I also didn’t listen to Whoopi Goldberg, who told me to “stop” and I didn’t, and here I am.’

Ana, 52, said then: “For me, it was a learning moment, a learning moment, and the lesson I learned was: when Whoopi Gold tells me to mind my damn business, from now on I’m going to mind my own damn business.” of my own damn business.” !

“I almost never know what’s going on in pop culture, so it was very strange for me to fall down this rabbit hole, but it was everywhere, right? There was an international frenzy, it couldn’t be helped, it was everywhere .

“We had a family chat about it, but I think part of the reason why that happened too is because I think she is very loved, respected, valued and treasured in England.

Mother-of-two Sunny also admitted she “never cared much” about the royal family.

“But I think we all like him because he’s like a bright spot in what has been a very dysfunctional royal family for decades and decades.

Ana added: ‘Several of us on this panel have had a cancer diagnosis in our family and we know it shakes you to your core, it’s terrifying and it takes a long time to process, digest and be able to do so. Imagine how much harder it is to have to explain it to young children.

When Sunny asked Whoopi if she meant, “I told you so,” the Sister Act star confirmed she didn’t, but went on to explain why she had defended Kate and the royal family on the show last week.

‘Like I said, once you’ve had this experience, it can mark you. “It can be scary because once those things start happening, everyone joins in and there’s no stopping it,” the Oscar winner said.

‘People don’t want to hear the truth. They know they are doing their thing and that’s why I always think about the children, because the children… hear it from the outside, they hear it at school, even their children.’

‘If I think there is an advantage, I will always say: “listen, please think about this”, because what you don’t know is what we say here, it doesn’t stay here. Cross the pond, get to the Internet and people, as you know, manipulate things, manipulate what you say.
