Tyler Perry has remained tight-lipped about his support for Meghan Markle and Prince Harry after their exit from the UK, especially regarding reports that he offered his California home to the couple when they first arrived in the United States.
When asked directly how he helped the couple, the film producer chose to keep details under wraps, offering a brief response. “I didn’t. Meghan is from California. She knows California well. So there was nothing to prepare them for,” Perry explained when asked about his involvement.
The Madea creator further clarified why he avoids discussing the couple, explaining the media frenzy surrounding them. “What I learned about mentioning them — because there’s this insatiable appetite to know all about them — is that any question that is asked becomes the headline of anything I say,” he noted.
When pressed about why there is so much interest in Meghan and Harry, Perry turned the question back to the interviewer. “You’re from the UK, you tell me,” he said, adding, “You would know better than I would because I’m not paying attention to that world.”
The conversation appeared to wrap up quickly as Perry remarked, “It’s clearly time to cut. Next scene.” This comment further emphasized his desire to move on from the topic, leaving the question of his role in helping the Sussexes unresolved. Perry’s decision to stay out of the spotlight regarding his assistance to Meghan and Harry reflects his preference for privacy amidst the intense media scrutiny surrounding the couple.
