The sisters-in-law attended the final of the tennis championships in July 2019, and were famously pictured laughing together in the royal box during Serena Williams' showdown with Simona Halep.
Referencing the Wimbledon trip, Oprah asked: “Was it what it looks like? You are two sisters-in-law out there in the world, getting to know each other.
“Was she helping you, embracing you into the family, helping you adjust?"
Appearing to dodge the question, Meghan replied: “My understanding and my experience for the past four years is that it’s nothing like what it looks like.”

It followed Meghan’s revelation that Kate made her cry days before her wedding.
Speaking with Oprah, she said: "I don't think it's fair to her to get into the details of that because she apologised and I've forgiven her.
"What was hard to get over was being blamed for something not only I did not do, but that happened to me."
And she said the wife of Prince William gave her flowers to apologise, adding "she's a good person".

In November 2018, it was reported "Meghan left Kate in tears" over her demands for Princess Charlotte's bridesmaids dress during a "stressful" fitting.
It was then subsequently claimed that the "rift" began when Kate said the bridesmaids should follow royal protocol by wearing tights which Meghan disagreed with.
But this weekend, a source claimed to the The Telegraph that the Duchesses fell out after Princess Charlotte's bridesmaid dress didn't fit - which meant they had to schedule more fittings ahead of the big day.
Prince William and Kate Middleton are said to feel “desperately sad” about estrangement of Meghan and Harry, but still hold out hope of a reconciliation.
The aide spoke of the estrangement of the Sussexes from the royal family as seeming “irreversible”.
