“Meg’s M.O. has always been kindness; goodness runs in her bones,” she wrote. “I know this to be true after 22 years of very close friendship. I have seen firsthand how she treats her friends and their families.”

Roth continued to enumerate the things Markle does, which reveal her good heart, including helping others strive for success and show small gestures to keep others safe.

Roth’s post was accompanied by a throwback photo of them during their graduation and a candid snap of the royal putting lipgloss on her best friend during her wedding day.

The post came shortly after an article regarding Markle bullying a close adviser at Kensington Palace was published. The adviser filed a complaint against the duchess, which the palace looked into.

In a statement the palace released, they noted that a Dignity at Work policy had been implemented for several years as bullying remains unacceptable in the household.

Meanwhile, Markle appeared in an interview on “Oprah with Meghan and Harry: A Primetime Special” on March 4 and revealed that she and her husband would not remain silent against any allegations.

“I don’t know how [the royal family] could expect that after all of this time, we would still just be silent if there is an active role that the Firm is playing in perpetuating falsehoods about us,” Markle said.

Many have expressed their excitement over the full interview, which will touch on Markle’s marriage, work, motherhood, and the controversial life in the royal palace.
