Why is she such an unsympathetic character? Honestly asking.

So grateful for this anonymous forum because anyone who says this stuff under their own name would get canceled. Hoping this will be the nail in the coffin for celebrity oversharing. Stop trying to pretend you’re “helping” anyone by sharing - its all about you.

God, you and the other PPs are so narcissistic yourselves, it's unbelievable. I think that's why you all hate her so much, MM's a narcissist who is much better at it than you are, and you can't stand that (like most narcissists, you violently despise other narcissists).

Let us be straight here: No insignificant DCUM poster is getting canceled because they don't like MMs editorial. You aren't important enough to cancel. I realize that will make you absolutely furious, but it is the truth.

But I do have to thank you for your entertainment value here. I knew as soon as I saw the NYT that you folks would be frothing madly, and I was right.

I was using the expression tongue in cheek. Sorry you misunderstood.

No, you weren't. It's pretty obvious from what you wrote. You seriously think that your opinions on MM are somehow important. I'm here for it, but because you and other PPs are entertaining in your rage at a more successful narcissist.

If so, Charles, William, and the family used the type of discretion Meghan failed to embrace. We didn’t hear a peep of omit from the BRF which also has a leak. I suspect Harry did not tell them


Funny. The BRF is saying the exact opposite. Which begs the question - if they knew, why be so callous?

MM’s miscarriage story is making news at the same time Christina Perri lost her daughter—stillborn at 32 weeks.

Every loss is hard. But if MM was very early on, then her emotionally wrought write-up is a bit tone deaf.

I’ve suffered 3 MCs by the way. An early MC isn’t the same as a later loss.

Also: I hate it when people celebrity-splain things we already know and elevate it to something it is not for their own purposes. Miscarriage isn’t shameful, it is rather common, and she isn’t brave for sharing. Rather, she’s vying for sympathy to shift the narrative. She wants to be a celebrity who is adored. Gross.


I had these thoughts when I read the story too. I also assume that if MM was further along she would have included that detail in her writing.


She absolutely would have milked a late term loss. For now she is probably just trying to milk her 7 week loss for all its worth because she wants to be though of as brave for sharing her all too common story. Problem is too many people have been down the same road and think her piece is trash due to the way it's written. She's gross at this point, nothing else to say.


I would honestly be surprised at this take but I saw how people reacted the same way (negatively) to Chrissy Teigen sharing her loss.

Its weird to me. Miscarriage - late-term or early - is not talked about at all. People write about it years later once they have their 'rainbow' babies but the idea that its commonplace for famous or well-known women, or even regular, women to speak up on it is false. Especially if they don't have to. Someone mentioned Christina Perri - I doubt you'd even known she had a miscarriage if she hadn't been so public about posting nude shots of her body in the third trimester. She couldn't very well hide the loss.

I have no idea who Christina Perri is. And in my experience, I know who of all my close friends and family have had miscarriages. Most of them have. It's talked about like most other sensitive topics. Child birth, sex, infertility, breast lumps, etc. It may not be for public consumption but among close circles of women and family it is talked about. I just didn't bring it to work, or with casual acquaintances. I'm speaking for myself only but I have to think other groups of women haven't made it taboo. At least I hope!

Talking about it in 'whispers' among circles of women does nothing to change the public mindset or outlook.

Many young women go into pregnancies with a lot of 'secrets' hovering that they don't even realize could or will be realities until tragedy strikes.

Aside from all that - fostering a whisper network is good but if you ever want to change society or have people change the way its acknowledged - you have to speak up. This is what happened with abortion rights, voting rights, fair pay etc.

I want to add to the above ^^ that you don't know about it until it happens to you. Then you tell someone and the floodgates open and all the stories come out. I just think people don't try to scare newly pregnant women with all the things that can go wrong, until they do. Kind of like how once you've given birth then you trade war stories with other women about how hard/scary/painful/bad labor was and all the things that go along with it that you don't really get into until you've done it. I've sat with countless groups of women and traded birth stories and all the good/bad/ugly parts of it. Miscarriage discussion was similar, for me.

Who. Cares. I shouldn't have to even think about when the BRF knew, or what they didn't do, or if they denied him a wreath, or if they were grieving with their LA photo op.

And, yes, I'm commenting, but I also went to the NYT for actual news and was, once again, shoved into the wealthy dysfunction of the BRF. People are dying, there is a pandemic, I don't GAF. MM and Harry made the choice to leave the BRF, but they cannot quit the media.
