She was looking for a missing sock? Picking up a single crayon? Put her hair in a ponytail and then went to the crib? Sang a lullaby in the morning? It just rings ... off. That is part of what makes it off-putting, separate from trying to make “are you ok” happen. It’s not going to happen. I am sorry for their loss, though.

This.

Or how about how she wishes she could go back it time to help the woman in NYC who was crying? Give me a break. She thinks she is relating to the general public and that 'SHE CARES if we're ok'. Uh huh. Not buying it.

No, very doubtful.

He's so unintelligent, I don't think he has realized what he married yet.

Read this quickly as "don't think he has realized that he's married yet"

I read on another thread that OP is rubbing her hands together over having locked that the queen scolded MM by saying, "In this family we don't talk like that." I don't know if that's true or not, but if it is, I'd have a hard time accepting that kind of rebuke, too.

She said that because MM chewed out the assistants like the diva she is. She totally deserved it, and even moreso in a Royal family where protocol and decorum mean something. She behaved like a prole who is not used to status or power lording it over the "help".

The anecdote was as folllows:

A royal author has revealed the Queen spoke to Meghan about her treatment of staff during one incident in the lead-up to the royal wedding last May.

“Meghan had gone to Windsor Castle to taste some of the food that was going to be served at the reception,” Katie Nicholl told Yahoo UK’s ‘The Royal Box’.

“Now she had insisted on there being a macrobiotic alternative, I suppose with there being that many Hollywood stars, you would expect that to be the case”

The author explained that a disagreement over a key ingredient prompted the Queen to pull the now-expecting Duchess aside..

“She got very upset when she felt she could taste egg in a dish and she was told there was no egg and she said ’No I can taste it, I can taste there’s egg in this dish.’

“And I think there was a bit of an upset when suddenly the Queen walked in, because of course this is Windsor Castle, this is her home. And she just quietly took Meghan to the side and said ‘Meghan, in this family, we don’t speak to people like that.’”

She was also apparently rude to Kate during a dress fitting pre wedding. She’s a B rated actress with no real class - she’s a climber. The anecdote above proves it.

+1 An early miscarriage is sad but not the same. I know very few women with kids who haven't had one, and I don't believe there is a stigma about it. Some wanted to discuss it and some didn't, but that had to do with temperament not stigma. That said, after the first trimester is very tough, and Chrissy Teigen lost a child not a fetus.

I agree. I had a miscarriage at 10 weeks and yes, it was very sad, but I'm irritated by everyone comparing her loss to Chrissy Tiegen, who had a stillbirth, and held her baby in her arms.

And Chrissy Tiegen has defended her bc while you posters want to compare levels of miscarriages, other people just want to be sympathetic.

One can be sympathetic to her loss AND still believe penning a PR stunt essay in the NYT is crass given the obvious motive here is to sway public opinion about herself.

She never announced a pregnancy, yet she felt compelled to announce a MC. Why?

You and your tribe of posters aren’t actually sympathetic to her loss. That is pretty clear.

And according to posters on DCUM and the world, miscarriages should be announced in order to take stigma away and to help others going through similar losses. However, it also seems on DCUM, that only certain miscarriages matter and only certain people can announce they’ve suffered one. Oh and now let’s throw in, if you haven’t announced your pregnancy, you cannot announce a miscarriage.

I think you are making some rather misinformed leaps, pp.

I am sympathetic to her loss. I’ve had 3 miscarriages (including one at 11.5 weeks which was the hardest).

I don’t believe there is any stigma related to MC. Stigma would mean women don’t share the loss with anyone out of fear of being judged negatively for what, exactly? Failure to carry full term? I mean, I know there was a stigma for that when queens failed to produce an heir (at least as portrayed on The Tudors and The Spanish Princess), but in the real world nobody judges women for suffering a MC.

Women don’t discuss this casually because it is personal and doesn’t come up in casual conversation—like most health issues. But, women do share this info if they’ve already announced a pregnancy or when it comes up (when a friend shares a MC, women share their own MC stories).

Most women share this info in person. I’ve never seen anyone share it on FB (I didn’t).

Again, women sympathize with MM for her loss. Most of us suffered at least 1 MC ourselves. We get it.

But, this thread isn’t judging the MC or her loss. Rather, it’s a group-cringe about how she penned an essay seemingly under the auspices of swaying public opinion about her.

She would have been better served by simply posting a very short statement on social media.

“Harry and I are saddened to share that our family suffered a miscarriage this summer. Our grief over the loss that so many others have experienced remind us that we are not alone.”

Had she said that—and only that—I think nobody would question her motive, and she would have received nothing but sympathy. For whatever reason, she goes too far and opens herself up to criticism.

Why would you think miscarriages are stigmatized......and by whom exactly? And yes, one would assume that a miscarriage is a painful, personal matter and not something that should warrant a press release.

Well if this thread is anything, sharing your miscarriage doesn’t get you much sympathy.

Yeah you’re in denial and trying awfully hard to perfume the cringe inducing comments on this thread. People have posted about her ability to carry a child. Claiming you have sympathy and then in the same breath attacking someone doesn’t exactly show you in the best light. But you’re in good company with a lot of other vicious posters trying unsuccessfully to cover up their glee at her loss.

You don’t get to tell ppl how they should announce a loss. Oh and while you haven’t seen people post on social media about their MC I certainly have.

Oh please

No matter what she wrote or posted, you and similar posters would’ve made snide and ugly comments. You’re as insufferable and long winded as you claim Meghan is.
