Together, the friends make potsticker dumplings and get into a poignant conversation about how “perfect isn’t beautiful”. Vicky explained how she had spent a lot of time in when she was building her business, and Meghan said: “You gave me this idea that is so meaningful that if you break something that is precious and valuable, it’s not broken. You taught me that this fracture makes it more beautiful. I just think that it felt symbolic to anyone if you’ve been through something that you’re not broken. It can be fixed, it can be sealed and healed at the same time.”

Vicky said that these “fractures” should be “celebrated because they are what make you beautiful” and “perfect isn’t beautiful.”
The comment clearly struck a chord with Meghan, who took a deep breath and slowly nodded her head while saying: “Yep.”
Her eyes appeared to be filling with tears as Vicky continued: “Things that have lived and been dropped and put back together again are more beautiful.”
Meghan opened up about her mental health struggles during her bombshell interview with Oprah Winfrey in 2021. She said that she had suicidal thoughts while living in the UK as a working member of the Royal Family, including when she was pregnant with Prince Archie.
She told Oprah: “Look, I was really ashamed to say it at the time and ashamed to have to admit it, to Harry especially, because I know how much loss he’s suffered. But I knew that if I didn’t say it that I would do it – and I just didn’t want to be alive anymore. And that was a very clear and real and frightening constant thought.”
Meghan also claimed that she went to the Royal Family and “said that I needed to go somewhere to get help, said that I’ve never felt this way before and I need to go somewhere, and they said I couldn’t, that it wouldn’t be good for the institution”.
She continued: “This was emails, begging for help, saying very specifically I am concerned for my mental welfare…Nothing was ever done. So we had to find a solution.” Meghan and Harry stepped down from their roles as working royals and moved to the US in 2020.
