I wonder, too, if Meghan might have a bit of postpartum depression. I had it after my second child and it warps your view of the world, and I didn't realize I had it until I started coming out of it.
This wouldn't surprise me at all, especially given that she's in a new country and away from her friends, family and familiar surroundings. It has nothing to do with not loving and embracing a new life, just the disorientation and isolation of adjusting to it, which are shown to increase the risk for PPD.
When I watched that interview with her, she reminded me so much of how I felt with PPD. I recognized it in her expressions. I remember feeling emotionally like the least little breeze would knock me right over. Money and privilege don't insulate anyone from that.
The cynicism and attendant lack of compassion on this thread is really disheartening. Truly, DCUM at its ugliest.
