Where was the Harry and Meghan interview filmed?

The interview was reportedly filmed at a house close to Harry and Meghan's home in Santa Barbara, California.

In the interview clips, Harry, Meghan and Oprah are seen in a tree-filled garden sat on wooden chairs with cream cushions.

According to the Mirror, they are in the garden of CBS journalist and Winfrey’s close friend, Gayle King.

Oprah and Gayle have been friends for a number of years, and her beautiful garden makes for an ideal setting for the interview.

Gayle previously hinted about the location of the interview during an appearance on CBS This Morning, saying: "They taped at a friend's home. People said it was at Oprah's house or Harry and Meghan's, [but] it was at a friend's home."

She also said that Oprah believes the interview is the 'best' thing she's ever done, adding: "She said it wasn’t just her though, it was because the conversation apparently was so candid with all three of them.

"They all look comfortable sitting talking to one another."
