Meghan Markle is speaking out about a video of her dancing in a delivery room with husband, Prince Harry; the viral clip drew mixed reactions on social media.
In the video, Markle and Harry were seen grooving in a room with a hospital bed in the background before the Duchess of Sussex gave birth to their daughter Lilibet.
While critics took aim at the Duchess of Sussex and called the moment “cringe” and “attention-seeking,” Markle dubbed the video “authentic.”
“You have to be authentic,” she said in a preview clip for the next episode of the “Aspire” podcast. “Did you see my ‘Baby Momma’ dance? … By the way, that wasn’t yesterday. That was four years ago.”

“It’s a really great reminder that, with all the noise or whatever people do, there’s still a whole life. A real, authentic, fun life that’s happening behind the scenes,” she remarked.
“I’m just grateful that now, being back on social as well, I have a place where I can share it on my own terms,” Markle added.
When asked if she could rewrite her public narrative from scratch and if there was anything she would do differently by host Emma Grede, she replied, “Yes, I would ask people to tell the truth,” according to Vanity Fair.

In 2020, the couple announced they were stepping back as senior royals, citing the unbearable intrusions of the British press and a lack of support from the palace. That year, they moved to California. In 2021, they welcomed their daughter, Lilibet.
