A letter and a reported police meeting are the focus of Kevin O'Sullivan's discussion with royal commentator Kinsey Schofield, joining him from Los Angeles. Their question is how the dates fit Meghan's account of when she learned about allegations of abuse.
The TalkTV segment drew about 65,000 views in seven hours, already well beyond the channel's usual full-day audience for regular videos. Its comment count also passed the usual first-day total several times over.
O'Sullivan questions the account of advice Meghan says she received from a Metropolitan Police detective. He says the force could not identify the officer involved. Those points are presented through the host's commentary, rather than an interview with Meghan or a police representative.
Around six minutes in, Schofield attributes the timeline question to fellow commentator Charlotte Griffiths, comparing the reported timing of the letter with the police dates. "Was that an honest mistake, is what I'd like to know," Schofield asks. That distinction between a mistaken date and the wider interpretation of Meghan's statement is the central question of the exchange.
