She was 35 or thereabouts, Suits was ending, she needed money and a husband and she wanted to be famous and wealthy.


Who are you people who think you NEED a husband? Meghan had $15,000,000 when she wed Harry. She had her own money and frankly she was better off without him. She had money, her home, her charities and her blog. She was also receiving recognition for her philanthropy pre-Harry. Harry’s world brought unnecessary cruelty and drama, but hey there’s that love word. It has messed up plenty women throughout time.


Quite your source on her net worth or its a blatant lie.

It's only the most interesting thing to people on here discussing it, and who know little else about them. Lots of people love them for lots of reasons, including their philanthropic work. Meghan def has a very close cadre of friends who are very protective of her and love her very much.


What else is there to know? Remove their connection to the BRF and do you think they would stand out in the sea of philanthropy?



Well Meghan was philanthropic prior to knowing and dating Harry. Actually received recognition from the UN on her charity work. Just because she was unknown to you does not mean she was unknown to others.


She wasn't a standout. No one knew her. I've probably spoken at more UN events than she had at that point, I just don't go about trying to curate a brand around it. You need money and/or status to be a standout philanthropist and she had neither.

She is relevant now entirely because of the racist, imperialist institution she is hellbent on destroying.

Even after having the post-royal family platform, their "Live to Lead" doc on Netflix tanked. Nobody cares about them apart from royal family drama and gossip.


Are you a standout ? Better yet, why aren't you a standout ? You could start by exiting thus thread IF you don't care about them .


Clearly you have no response. Be gone.


Thanks for confirming what I knew. The audacity of acting like your life is so interesting ( it clearly isn't) to the point of asking for someone's else achievements .

What is with Tyler Perry, who they barely know, being their daughter’s Godfather? Do they have zero friends or family that they get along with?


Of course he will try to. And Meghan will probably eviscerate him. She's been preparing for this and keeping receipts the whole time, and it's clear he's a dunce.


But without him, nobody is interested in her. She can't stand alone. It's Harry people hire to do the speeches. He's the one with the memoir. When the breakdown comes people will be more interested in his side.


In this context, it is still "him" just from her side. She will be flinging mud at him and people will be interested to know just how much of a disaster he was. Or how awful there were to each other.

This is not some project fully independent of Harry or the BRF, he would still be very much entangled in this bit and thus it would still carry interest.

I'm sure she has enough damaging stuff about him and about his family that the dope probably spilled to her, that she can make this a protracted nightmare that the BRF, and Harry, would rather avoid.

And this is all assuming the BRF even comes to his rescue. Harry is completely useless without the coterie of assistants propping him up. Meghan has at least proven that she can hustle and make things happen on her own.


Maybe, but people are interested in the royal intrigue. Everything that happens from this point on will be just between the tow of them since the BRF will have nothing to do with them going forward. I don't think people will be as interested in their domestic issues in Montecito. People are lapping up what Kate and Will said or did or what the Queen thought, that's what sells the books and documentaries.


That's the thing though. Meghan would make sure it's about more than their domestic issues. She would drag the whole institution into it. You think that isn't royal intrigue?

You think dummy Harry didn't share some juicy tidbits over pillow talk?

What a tragic end for Harry, I can’t see anyone wanting to keep his company.



It's appalling, I simply can't get over how vicious and petty the details are. Daily Mail has excerpts of the Kate vs. Meghan anecdotes, and they are mind-glowingly stupid. Anger about hugs, lip gloss, children's tights and requests not to be too informal prematurely? I mean wtf.



Amazing how this is mostly coming from the Sussexes, and Meghan really does not come across well at all. Arrogant, abrasive, presumptuous, and definitely jealous.

It is mostly incredibly stupid and small, but do we think it's true Meghan paid for the Sussex's Ikea furniture vs. the Wales's lap-of-luxury decor? Very strange!


Meghan had a $1M wardrobe during her 18 months of service so I doubt it. They spent $4M renovating Frogmore and included a personal yoga room and floating floor and she had the designer of SOHO house do the interior decor.


That was not a part of the renovation, and it was 3.2 million, and they repaid it. And maybe that all seems nitpicky but it shows how people change and frame these stories to make her look comically awful.


But the comical awfulness is just from the semantics of the exact cost or the silly reno features. Are they not embarrassed to now be publicly complaining about how small their newlywed home was or how nice William and Catherine's furniture was when they ended up removating their dream home and now live in a mansion.

They were married for 2 minutes and were already comparing and complaining. What an awful way to start a marriage and join a family.






It's also quite bizarre for what amounts to a new employee feeling entitled to anything, much less parity with well-established senior royals.


It isn't Meghan but HARRY who felt entitled to parity, and he should! Andrew gets whatever he wants!



I doubt comparatively Andrew gets a fraction of what his brother gets, and what he does have was "earned" over time precisely because he stayed in the fold and fulfilled his duties, such as they were.




Harry's main gripe seems fundamentally to be that Charles cut him off. So once again there are inconsistencies here.


I feel like only people from functional families can read this that way. CLEARLY money is used as a coercive weapon in the family. ALL of them use it against one another. Which is why the financial independence that M/H have sought and acquired is so INCREDIBLY threatening.


Exactly. Money was used as a weapon to wield obedience and compliance. What’s love got to do with anything.

Let's call a spade, a spade (or Spare!).
Harry is also using his family to make money which allows him to continue to live like a Royal.
Also, if he wasn't a Royal, you think Meghan would have married that misshapen carrot-top?

I am from a military family (spouse, brother in law, father, grandfather). All have been on combat operations, as have their comrades and therefore people who I have mixed with all my life. Not once has any of them even hinted at their “scorecard”. It is not something that is ever ever mentioned in the military community.


Chris Kyle had over 150 kills, wrote a book and they made a movie about it. Black Hawk Down was based on the book of a former Marine. Others have written about their war time actions, most have not. It is not a rule that it cannot be spoken about.

Chris Kyle is dead now.

I think a bit part of Megan’s problem is that she thought she could portray this warm open persona and then close that door for privacy. It doesn’t work that way there. It reminds me of the queens advice to someone — never hold hands in public because the first time you aren’t holding hands, they will make it headline news. They will use whatever you give them so give them nothing to work with except bland propriety.


But she and Harry have been calculating and taking notes and seeking to take down and destroy these people over petty grievances. That doesn't sound like a genuine open warm person.


Making videos, taking notes etc sounds like this union was a pre planned business project.


You do know that’s what people are doing these days. They are journaling their relationships. Some to eventually show at the wedding reception. Others to have a history to share with potential children. While others just put everything on Facebook and Instagram. It’s not unusual in this day snd age. I would say it’s been a thing for the last ten-years. Give or take a few.

Only the wannabe influencers.

Your comprehension is lacking. Speaking at some random UN event is fairly mundane and people with pretty boring lives do it regularly.

You seem impressed though lol.

Chelsy and Cressida are rich heiresses, they had better options. It was not the Royal life, it was Harrold, he was an ass to both women.


IDK. Will also was keen to marry a blonde aristochick and dumped Kate multiple times to try to get with them, but they didn't want a Royal life and yes, had other options. Both boys were basically going to have to marry commoners who viewed the marriage as a big step up. I don't see Harrold as being an ass unless you apply the same to William who was roundly rejected.

He finally "did the right thing" after being told to shit or get off the pot.


There is zero comparison between a relationship over a decade between two same aged people who met at 20 and a quick let’s get mawwied relationship between a no-college-cheat halfwit and frigging late 30s divorcee. Try again.


Why are you and others bent on the non-college degree talking point. Is this the same DCUM crowd who constantly post in the college Dorothy’s every person should not attend college, and Trade schools pay better than non-stem college attendees. Now you guys are using it as an insult. His trade was the royal institution. Now his trade is invictus and writing memoirs. Obviously he did not need to go to college to make money doing either. And BTW, if you are thirty-five and older and you need more than a year to decide that you want to marry or walk away, something is wrong with you. You should know yourself by that age. You’re no spring chicken.

I think the BRF will continue to take the high road.

I think they will invite Harry and his family to the coronation, but they will be careful to prevent any potential for quiet moments that H&M can capitalize on or misconstrue.
