When Prince Harry makes an urgent call to Oprah Winfrey on a holiday weekend, one might assume it’s for another bombshell interview. But a recent “crisis” at the Duke of Sussex’s Montecito estate required a different kind of intervention from the media mogul, sparking a frantic chase across her property.
Since their alliance was solidified in their explosive 2021 television special, Harry and Oprah have become more than just interviewer and subject; they are neighbors in the ultra-exclusive Southern California enclave they both call home. It was this neighborly bond that prompted Harry to send an S.O.S. to Winfrey over Easter. During a recent appearance on Kelly Ripa’s podcast, Let's Talk Off Camera, Oprah revealed the hilarious story behind the prince's panicked plea.
"I get a call from Harry, Prince Harry, on Easter Saturday, and he says, 'Sorry to bother you, O, but we have a duck problem here,'" Winfrey recounted, adopting a cheeky British accent to impersonate the royal.
The high-stakes issue wasn’t a security breach or another royal family spat. It was, quite literally, a flock of wayward waterfowl. "A duck had come into their yard and laid their eggs and had these chicks," Oprah continued in her best Harry voice. "And he said, 'Our pond is a stream, we don’t have a pond, so can we bring the ducks over to your pond?'"
Winfrey, whose BFF Gayle King's grandchildren were set to visit, happily agreed to welcome the new feathered residents to her estate. But the transfer didn't go as smoothly as planned. Despite Oprah's request to wait for the kids, Harry was insistent. "He goes, ‘No, we’re coming right away, we’re coming over!'" she said.

What followed was a scene of pure, unadulterated chaos. "As he opens the door, the mama duck flies out. And he’s got all the baby ducks in a box," Winfrey described. The escape set off a mad dash. "We’re chasing the mama duck who is in the front yard and has flown to the other side. We’ve got her ducks. Harry’s running after, Meghan gets out, she’s running after, chasing the mom and trying to get her to come back to her ducks."
The spectacle of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex chasing a frantic bird left Oprah in stitches. "And for like half an hour, we’re running around with the ducks in a box. We have video. It’s the funniest thing I’ve ever seen," she concluded with a laugh.
Host Kelly Ripa summed up the situation perfectly. "The ducks also hit the jackpot," Ripa joked. "They’re like, ‘Wait a minute, we show up at Prince Harry’s house and now we’re at Oprah’s!’ Excuse me. That duck knew what it was doing when it laid its eggs."
Meghan later shared a clip of the ducks on her Instagram, giving the public a small peek into the great Easter duck chase.
