This is the Entertainment and Pop Culture thread. No one is "living" in my head - we are just discussing pop culture. If you don't want to read about it then choose another thread.

Her husband gave up everything for her, he protects her and their kids, he is a family man, and he supports her independent projects. She is beautiful, educated, well spoken, has her own career and money and ALL of that was before she met Harry. Together they've most made each other better.

If you look at the women who loudly and proudly talk shit about Meghan... you can see why they are mad. Jealousy makes you ugly on the inside and outside... and the outside of these women is NOT pretty.

Giving up everything (your friends and family) is a red flag. This Hollywood drama isn't what makes a healthy happy marriage.

That said, I am sure plenty of people are jealous of her, and I agree she is stunning.

Babe going no contact because your family is toxic towards you and toxic towards your spouse and kids IS NOT a red flag it's actually the healthiest response. If my family turned the toxic British press on my husband to cover their shenanigans, I would absolutely take him, my kid and leave. Period.

Harry and Meghan did the right thing and certain people will never be over it. So sad for those who cannot live in reality and waste their time spewing hate towards a woman they'll never know and who doesn't know they exist.

Some of these women would've done more for their own lives if they had focused on the elections at home (presidential in the US and Brexit in the UK) and voted their interests. Instead they stay stalking a woman who is minding her own business. Sad.

It is NOT normal to cut your whole family and social circle off. Cutting off 1 person (looking at you, Prince Andrew) or going low contact, sure. But losing your entire social circle and family wouldn't be something most therapists would recommend.

Remember Catherine's black sheep uncle who eventually went on a reality show? Even he hasn't been cut off. It is very extreme to cut multiple family members and friends off, and any good therapist will tell you this. Unfortunately today people act like that is "normal."

Also what's with the "Babe" thing?

DP here.

It's healthy to cut off people who refuse to try and understand or communicate with you as an equal. It's healthy to cut people off when they don't respect your spouse or children. I don't think it's "normal" but the dysfunction in both Harry's family and in Meghan's dad's family is also not "normal" and if they feel they need distance in order to protect themselves and their kids, that's healthy.

I'll also note that Harry actually has not cut off his family. He still sees and is friendly with his cousins and multiple of his friends from pre-Meghan. He has also spoken to his dad. It's a very strained relationship. But it's not like Harry has totally cut these people out of his life forever. He's set boundaries. That's all.

DP and that's a question I keep wondering. What sort of mental illness has posters here and on MailonLine spending all their waking hours trashing a woman who left the royal family 5 years ago and hasn't talked about them in 2-3 years?

It's the Entertainment forum. Lighten up.

I don't know. What kind of mental illness keeps you on here telling people that their opinions of Meghan are wrong.

Some people like Meghan, Hilaria and BL are just very big topics because of their ventures, lawsuits, scandals, their high profile...You could start threads about 95% of actors and actresses here and they would not have traction the way these few do. How many times can you say Nicole Kidman is a great actress who did too much botox, Halle Berry looks stunning, Scarjo was great on the today show? There needs to be "something" to gossip about, and that requires some degree of great exposure + controversy + negative opinions and disagreement.

Where's Jessica Mulroney?

This seems right. Like, I think Nicole Kidman probably is a little heavy-handed with Botox at times, but she is a superb actress who has had a long career, and she weathered her divorce with weirdo Tom Cruise with grace. There is nothing to dissect.

Meghan and Harry went on OPRAH, various people from her past and from her family have gossiped to the press, and she had a falling out with her supposed bestie Jessica Mulrooney, as well as her childhood friend who was her Maid of Honor in her first wedding to Trevor Engelson. She just has a sloppy public profile and maybe she can finally overcome it, but it makes her interesting to speculate about.

In Meghan's case it goes beyond idle gossip, though. It's a level of hatred that borders on insanity. I mean, why get so worked up about a woman who married into another country's royal family? The OTT hatred is actually consistent with people knowing deep down that she really was treated horribly by the British royal family and press, but the haters just can't live with that cognitive dissonance so instead they go apesh!t on her. At least that's a psychologically coherent explanation, as opposed to the haters just being losers with too much pent-up rage and too much time on their hands....

Well, they claim it's because she "disrespected" that royal family but that doesn't make sense to me either because guess what! They aren't our royal family! I could give two shits if some C-list actress makes fun of curtsying to a dusty old crone who believed she was ordained by God to be better than other people.

And even that curtsy criticism is a lie, because if you actually watch the video Meghan is mocking herself not the queen. The level of hatred is insane.

You can have your opinion, but the Queen was a deeply religious person who spent her life in service of her country. She could have walked away and just been a private citizen who was free to enjoy her immense wealth. I think it's important to recognize that.

It's really not. Other than military service, the royals' "service to their country" consists of going to pony shows and cutting ribbons. Even the "hard working" royals like Anne cut one ribbon a day, as opposed to William and Kate who use their kids to get out of shit. (and they were doing that before Kate had cancer.)

Meghan has made some missteps over the years and is far from perfect but the weird loyalty to the royals from (presumably, on a DC-based forum) Americans is so odd.

It could be one engagement a day, but these things aren't all in London. The Queen was commuting hours each way even in her 90s. Have a little respect.

Nobody is talking about the other royals, btw.

People don’t like that she trashed her husband’s family on TV. I liked her before that, but as someone who is struggling with in law problems (both my brothers wife and my husband’s side) and working hard to preserve the peace, I can’t respect someone who acts like she did (he’s even worse but Harry is such a fool that he’s pathetic and not worth talking about).
