There's a pattern here. The most likely problem is Meghan herself.

I mean most of those people, save the ex husband, are all terrible. Her siblings are (1) a woman who is sixteen years older than her and is estranged from her own mother and daughter (who she also physically abused). (2) her brother who also has a DV charge. Her father who is a hot mess and frankly whose behavior is incomprehensible to anyone who is a parent. And that Naniki girl sounded kind of weird and jealous. Her criticism is that Meg didn’t tell her why she wanted to get divorced and subsequently iced her out for meeting up with her ex husband. Meanwhile, she was megan’s Friend from high school and did not have any relationship or friendship with her ex outside of Meghan. Just a really weird and shady thing to do.

I would however love to hear what her ex husband had to say!


Sure, it's never Meghan's fault. Whatever you say super fan.

Because some people are eager to believe any criticism toward Meghan is racially motivated and therefore illegitimate.

Criticism towards her can be legit AND racially motivated. And frankly the continued insistence that no criticism of her could possibly be racist...is itself racist. You don’t know all the people with nasty things to say about her or why they are choosing to do so.

I’m also not sure that there has ever been a person of any meaningful African heritage who has successfully arrived in British high society. I read some article about the first black marchioness and even she, a billionaire heiress who is half British and went to all the “right” schools was treated differently because of her race.


No sorry. That is endorsing racism.

That is what I was thinking
Her father doesn't have a relationship with any of his kids
Her siblings are step siblings and she barely knows them
But I do think she grew up loved and had a happy childhood.

Harry on the other hand, his mother died when he was at a very vulnerable age. Charles comes across as aloof

I’ve always said I feel sorry for the dad- was never introduced to Harry. Made a mistake and posed for pics and that was enough for Meghan to cut out the dad she loved and gushed about right up until then.

Then he had heart surgery right before the wedding... and still no contact from Meghan. He goes on tv pleading for his daughter to contact him... still nothing. It’s sad.

But I guess this airing of dirty laundry is a marker thing because MM did it too with this book and all her “leaks” and sad droopy videos about no one asking if she is “ok”.

Meghan did the right thing. He sold her out for a few hundred dollar bills.

That would hurt.

But as a mother I would be ready to commit murder if he did the same to my child. She's protecting her son (who he has never met) and her husband (who he has also never met).

Thomas can take his fat butt on GMB and talk about the other daughter. Of course, he wouldn't get paid for those secrets, now would he?

Doria, who stood by her daughter and never sold or said a word, is present for every moment of her grandson's life and that's a blessing that I'm sure Meghan appreciates.

No one says he's perfect. And the tabloids certainly did all they could to paint him in an unflattering light.

The idea that Archie and Harry, with all the resources at their disposal, need protection from Thomas Markle is laughable on its face.

Why hasn't he met Harry? That is - why didn't his daughter introduce him to a man she was about to marry?

There is an explanation, but it's not a flattering one.

Meghan wants to be in control of her narrative. What she presents to the world is a story of a strong woman who came from humble beginnings despite all odds and fighting great obstacles with no one to help her. Bringing into this a father (who paid for expensive private schooling and then her university - which she lied and said she paid for herself) who worked with her for years on her acting craft and taught her the ins and outs of moving in front of the camera - I mean don't you wonder why Meghan rarely takes bad pictures? - might endanger this narrative. As would giving credit to her diplomat uncle who arranged for her internship (I mean what was possibly wrong with him?). She simply wanted to reinvent herself according to her own message, and that meant shedding everyone from her old life who could possibly interfere with that narrative.

If her dad is such a monster, why was she praising him on The Tig? He was good enough to put her through school but she was concerned he wasn’t polished enough to blend in with the royals. Can you imagine Thomas M and Prince Charles hanging out?

If this was posted to the family forum, every single reply would be that it is “your husband’s job to communicate with his family!”

Why do people keep acting like she doesn’t have a husband?


I've just assumed that some of these people are very young, and don't know how marriage works. They are young, and their only concept of relationships between females is rivalry, therefore someone has to be the badguy, Meghan can't be the bad guy, so it's Kate.
a
The other thing that's odd is the infantilization of Harry. Why is Kate responsible over Harry? Alternatively, why do some blame Meghan for Harry's poor choices.

As for the racism, yes there has been racism, but in my eye those instances have been rightly called out. What I have largely seen Meghan and Harry criticized for is breaking protocol, and inappropriate dress, things I very clearly remember Kate being admonished for harshly in the press.
People go on about Diana breaking protocol, well she really didn't do that until she had already been with the family for some time, and even then she had her critics and she was the Princess of Wales, and the mother of the heir.
Why do Harry and Meghan seem to think they are above critique?

Which brings me to my final opinion of the, they are both spoiled. Spoiled people, who are near 40 and behaving like teenagers.

Yadda yadda. He lost me when it was established that he was receiving financial support from his daughter while she was on suits. As a parent I would tighten my belt or get a job before I did that.

It's very normal to give money to your parents when they are old and ailing or otherwise in bad luck. Especially when the parent in question did everything they could to help you succeed earlier. And especially if the child has stumbled upon some success. I've been sending money to my parents for years.

It's not normal to not speak to your father for years.

It's also not normal to not introduce your father to the person you are planning to marry.

Did she lose you when she lied that she paid for her own schooling?

It's pretty hard to ignore that Meghan has, one way or another, burned every bridge or turned her back to practically everyone from her pre-Suits world, except her mother.

I'm sure I'm not the only one who noticed how odd it was that there was no, and I repeat no, close family friends or relatives with Doria at the wedding. There were no old childhood best friend, no old neighborhood friends, no school friends, no friends from college, or even her sorority. All the wedding guests from Meghan side were from her Suits days. I can understand and accept an estranged family explaining the absence of the Markles but there was still nobody else from the first 25 or so years of Meghan's life, except her mother.

The pattern is there and it keeps repeating itself. Meghan is very much about herself and when people are no longer needed to help her advance in life, she dumps them and closes them out. She's now doing the same to the rest of the BRF and the Queen. And she'll probably do the same to Harry in due time.

Very few people have to help their parents financially before they even hit 40. When Meghan was on suits Thomas was early 70s so assuming he retired at 65 he apparently didn’t even have 5 years retirement funds saved up Or he retired early and expected her to support him. That is not something a normal person does. And I don’t understand how he’s too old and ailing to provide for himself but healthy enough to regularly do televised interviews about his daughter and stage paparazzi photos.

I agree she shouldn’t have lied about paying for her schooling as it’s not even feasible given northwestern’s tuition. Very weird.

Maybe dear old Dad went broke sending his spoiled brat princess to expensive private schools. She should have been grateful for the opportunities he provided her which catapulted her into her current situation and been glad to help. But, alas, she's a selfish narcissist.

It generally does not reflect well on a person. It's doubtful every single person from her past was a monster.
