Now they just have to deal with the disciplined and scrupulous North American paparazzi. |
Nothing wrong with wanting to be happy. The secret is to ignore the haters. Don’t read the tabloids. Harry is known to read the tabloids. His anger is self-inflicted. If he’s reading it, I’m sure Meghan is as well. And that’s just bizarre. Most A listers publicly state they don’t read the tabloids. I’m sure their agents do, but they personally don’t. Ignorance is bliss. |
Everything you see in the "non-British" press has been picked up second hand from the British press. The British press is the filter through which you receive all your information about them. |
Of course that is not the only reason for their decision. |
The statements from Buckingham Palace are not filtered. Neither are pics showing Meghan or Kate wearing a cute dress, which is the level of my interest in them. Neither are their current physical locations. |
How is the truth trashing? And if you know her personally why are you wasting time here. |
DUH. Angelina was the one being trashed. She was compared to doing what Meghan did to Harry. Jen was the innocent victim. |
She is not desperate to take Brad back. |
It's is M Obama's mantra: "When they go low, you go high." She would never give them the pleasure of addressing their mean and untrue comments. Nothing pisses ppl off than to see they aren't getting under your skin. |
| I hope Meghan does something new with her hair now that she doesn’t have to work for the BRF. |
Oh yeah I’m sure if MM had accused the Rota of “going low” and said everything else Michelle has about her critics everyone would be chill about it. |

And angers a lot of black women. |
Whatever happened to the keep calm and carry on the British are supposed to be famous for? I do think that if Meghan had just kept calm, ignored the presses and just carried on, all the intense attention in her would have eventually calmed down. As a very high profile person in a high profile role she was always going to attract the nasty people and comments. Just don't read the papers and ignore the online abuse from the wackos. And she did make mistakes early on in how to present herself publicly, as the British have a narrow range of tolerance for what royals can do while remaining strictly neutral and not giving off too much an impression of privilege, but that would have been allowed if she'd learned from it and moved on. For some reason she and Harry aren't able to do that. And because of it, they can't apparently function well in their expected roles. But I also suspect this is only half the story. I do think Meghan saw a lifetime of boring duty ahead of her and realized she didn't want to be opening hospitals and sitting on charity boards forever, and always playing second fiddle to Kate. It's a gilded cage for sure. For a self-made and successful actress, it must have felt very limiting. She had no interest being the POC version of the Countess of Wessex. But the big problem is that you can't be royal and also be actively pursuing your own way or career. It's one or the other. Even leaving the royal family in this manner, (badly done IMHO) doesn't guarantee a successful separation. It will always be very hard for Harry and Meghan to not have the stigma of royalty or the titles overriding anything else they do, because what they do will be because of their royal status. That's why I think they will divorce. Meghan and Harry will finally understand this but approach it differently, Harry will want to retreat away from a commercial life and back into a private world that, in its own way, can only really happen if he remains loyal to the royal status even if he doesn't resume duties (effectively going underground, living discreetly and privately, made easier that the older he is the less interest the press will have in him). But Meghan won't want that. She wants the starlight, the hollywood glamor, the red carpets, the celebrity friends and glitz and glamour, which she was already part of before meeting Harry and sees as part of her identity and future. And she can work within that world. She's likely good at it. Maybe never the true A list level like Julia Roberts but I don't doubt she'd had a pretty successful career and life as a b-list actress. They will grow apart and finally divorce. |
