The Ophra Royal Interview

Members of the Royal Family in Prince Harry and Meghan Markle could also play a part in the Emmys as their controversial and revealing interview with TV legend Oprah Winfrey is up for a prestigious Emmy award.

The award is for The Best Hosted Non-Fiction Special and Oprah is up against

  • My Guest Needs No Introduction
  • Vice
  • United Shades of America
  • Stanley Tucci – Searching for Italy

Oprah, who has one previous Emmy award would be the winner rather than the royals, but it would surely reignite acrimony and support for the couple who have cut many of their official ties with the British Royal family.
