Tyler Perry compared the abuse his mother endured from his father to the treatment Meghan Markle received from the royal family, revealing just how afraid the Duchess of Sussex sounded when she reached out for his help in 2020.
“I could hear the fear [in her voice]. It was palpable. I mean, I could hear it,” Perry revealed in the final episode of the Sussexes’ Netflix docuseries, which aired Thursday.
The 53-year-old “Madea” star added, “This woman was abused. And so was [Prince Harry].”
Perry — who has spoken about his traumatic childhood in the past — explained, “I saw my mother be abused for years; I knew the symptoms. I knew what it was like.”
“[Meghan] was afraid of [the royal family] destroying her, or going crazy, or them making her think she was crazy.”
The comedian compared the royal family’s actions, including taking away the Sussexes’ security detail in 2020, as something a “batterer” would do.
“To use the institution to try and do all the things a batterer would do, like ‘We’re gonna cut off the money. We’re not gonna leave you security. We’re gonna do all those things to make you comply and come back,’” he said.
