In the ITV documentary Meghan and Harry: An African Journey, the Duchess spoke frankly about the impact her public role has taken on her mental health. The comedian and actress praised Meghan for going public and speaking honestly about her difficulties. She said: ”It would have been so easy for the Duchess to brush it aside, pretend she was OK really, but her 'yes' shows the power and courage and strength of vulnerability.”
Ms Hart has had her own battles with bouts of mental illness.
In the past she has bravely talked about her struggles with agoraphobia and crippling anxiety.
She described such fights as “like wading through treacle”.
In an interview with the Guardian in 2010, the actress said: “I thought the world was a bit scary.
In the documentary Meghan admitted that she was “not really okay” after being pressed by ITV presenter Tom Bradby during the documentary.
The Duchess of Sussex said: “Well, I guess, and also thank you for asking, but not many people have asked if I’m okay, but it’s a very real thing to be faint through behind the scenes.”
And, when asked whether it “has really been a struggle”, Meghan simply answered “yes”.
During the emotional interview, Meghan also said: “It's not enough to just survive something, that's not the point of life. You have got to thrive."
However, one royal insider says the Queen and Prince Charles have “gone out of their way” to try to make the Duchess feel welcome.
The insider told the Standard: “I know that the Prince of Wales has several times reached out to Meghan.
"They get on and share a love of music too.
“I know he invited her to a preview of an exhibition at the palace.
"The Queen has been a source of strength too and invited them both to Balmoral where family problems are usually aired.”
