The DailyFail is a piece of obstructionist crap. They posted the announcement of the divorce because they had to - Michael Gove is a U.K. Cabinet Minister - and they LOCKED the comments. After Ms. Vine spent 4 years writing every piece of bullcrap she could about Meghan and not deserving privacy even while giving birth?

The U.K. is nothing but a racist cesspool.

Michael Gove splits with wife Sarah Vine after 20 years of marriage and they are 'in the process of finalising their divorce'

Here we go again - racist island etc etc. Then why, pray tell, does MM have to remind everyone at every opportunity that she is a Duchess of said racist island? If it were truly so racist she'd be quick to divorce herself of any association with the UK to include her title and her children's title. But she doesn't which is telling. Trying to bludgeon people with it on the one hand and play the race card with the other and people see through it.


What does one have to do with the other? I can call the U.K. out for racist practices in their journalistic standards (or lack thereof).

Meghan's not the one calling Britain racist island... I think you're projecting on the wrong person(s).

People with disabilities fly all the time. Plus, there is no reason why with his family's wealth that they could not have arranged for him to fly on a private flight if it were important to them that he be there. THEY somehow managed to take private flights to various places.

While purporting to care about the environment.

Oh. My. God. The witch of the Isles locked her twitter account too. She had so many articles about Meghan's healthy, fruitful, passionate marriage but its been 10 minutes since she announced her own divorce and she can't take the heat.

Wow.

DP. I honestly can think of very few people at that level of wealth, privilege, and fame (through very little of their own merit) who nevertheless frequently publicly complain about how tough their life is and how others have mistreated them. But maybe we can crowdsource it. Can anyone think of anybody? (And please don’t make this political; this is the entertainment forum.)


DP. I'm not huge fans of Harry and Meghan but I've not heard them say how tough their life is. I've heard them talk about how difficult aspects of their lives are but not their whole lives - and that's fair. No matter our privilege or blessings, we are entitled to lament areas could be better. Everyone does it. I've also heard M&H talk about how privileged their lives are as well.

But, you asked for examples: How about Paris Hilton, the Kardashians, Prince Charles (although not lately), Sean Penn, Britney Spears....here are some quotes from celebrities that seem to fit the H&M situation:

Megan Fox
“I don’t think people understand. They all think we should shut the f@ck up and stop complaining because you live in a big house or you drive a Bentley. So your life must be so great. What people don’t realize is that fame, whatever your worst experience in high school, when you were being bullied by those ten kids in high school, fame is that, but on a global scale, where you’re being bullied by millions of people constantly … Not everyone understands that that’s the deal.” – Esquire, February 2013

Jennifer Lawrence
“I teeter on seeming ungrateful when I talk about this, but I’m kind of going through a meltdown about it lately. All of a sudden the entire world feels entitled to know everything about me, including what I’m doing on my weekends when I’m spending time with my nephew. And I don’t have the right to say, ‘I’m with my family.’ … If I were just your average 23-year-old girl, and I called the police to say that there were strange men sleeping on my lawn and following me to Starbucks, they would leap into action. But because I am a famous person, well, sorry, ma’am, there’s nothing we can do. It makes no sense … I am just not OK with it. It’s as simple as that. I am just a normal girl and a human being, and I haven’t been in this long enough to feel like this is my new normal. I’m not going to find peace with it.” – Vogue, September 2013


Unlike those celebs, Harry was born famous. He’s been groomed to navigate fame from the start. And his wife aggressively sought fame. Nonetheless, they continue to whine about privacy when what they actually want is to avoid any criticism. They want the platform and media attention…they just don’t want any critics.


Yep. Megan Fox and Jennifer Lawrence mostly got where they are on their own merits, not riding family coattails. That’s one big way in which they are different from H&M. Spears is mentally ill, so that a significant difference. If I hear Prince Charles publicly complain about how tough his life is, I’ll criticize him for it too.


Wow. Listen to you two. Harry can't dislike the lack of privacy because he was 'groomed to navigate fame from the start' and Meghan can't dislike it because she 'sought fame' without having merit. Just because someone seeks a high profile platform doesn't mean they should give up all expectation of privacy and control of their lives. They are entitled to choices.

These people will find any excuse to try to justify their objectively vile behavior. History will not remember them kindly, as we're already seeing play out with the Britney Spears saga.

They made their choices. Why are they endlessly whining?

Endlessly whining? The amount of whining that has happened about these two absolutely dwarfs the, what, 3 times they've publicly commented on this stuff. People whining and throwing tantrums about people whining. My God.

Disagree.

Fame comes with a price.

Harry and Meghan could have opted to lead a quiet life anywhere on the planet. Bruce Willis and Demi Moore were legit A list celebs who left Hollywood at the top of their careers to lead a quiet life in Idaho for the benefit of their kids. Harry opted to plop his family next to Oprah and sell his story and future to anyone willing to pay. They don’t want privacy. They want attention, they want to be paid, but they don’t think anyone should be allowed to criticize them.

All celebs realize the press that sustains their careers and paychecks can be brutal. That’s why most people don’t read their press. They ignore it. But these two whine about it. They play victim. They are their own worst enemy.

+1. So much whining about their own victimhood! How long is the list of people or entities who have mistreated them?: The BRF for ignoring their mental health, the news media, Charles specifically as a parent, the unnamed family member who inquired about Archie’s skin, Kate for making Meghan cry, Meghan’s dad for failing her, almost everyone in the world for not asking how Meghan was doing in South Africa. I’m sure there are more. The list goes on and on.

And I know by writing that out I rose the blood pressure of the keyboard warriors who no doubt are furiously typing away as soon as they finish reading this comment, but I think it's true. Obviously very different people and very different situations, but also some undeniable parallels. It'll make for an amazing season of The Crown one day... and I'm only half-joking.


I agree. It is not a surprise Harry was attracted to someone as dramatic and chaotic as his mother. Unfortunately, Meghan is also incapable of loving anyone other than herself.



You know absolutely, positively, nothing about this woman except what you read in the media yet have the audacity to say she is incapable of loving anyone other than herself. What a ridiculous thing to say about someone you don’t know, even someone in the public eye. I wouldn’t even say that about Donald Trump or Derek Chauvin. You guys really need to check yourselves and why you hate this woman so much. What is it about her that would drive you to say such a thing about someone you don’t know and never will? It’s not normal. Even on an anonymous forum.


I don't think it is hatred - it is the realization that everything that M & H do is a microcosm of what rich entitled people do writ large. They do it badly and it is insulting. The foundations that collect 90% for overhead with little going to actual charity, the victim act when you are millionaires, the PR leaks, the flip-flopping lies that the media covers for, flying private jets while preaching about the environment and on and on and on. Nobody likes hypocrites and it's not just Meghan that is annoying, it is Harry too.

The latest example:
https://www.hellomagazine.com/royalty/20210702116640/prince-harry-flies-back-to-us-reunite-meghan/
https://www.hellomagazine.com/royalty/20210701116569/meghan-markle-mourning-death-paternal-uncle-mike-markle/
https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/10296459/meghan-markle-uncle-mike-how-die/

What utter BS. This is the former diplomat uncle who got Meghan her internship whom she did not invite to her wedding and she has not spoken to in years. Her father's brother. He happened to live in a trailer park.


WTF is a diplomat living in a trailer. It's either a lie that he was a diplomat who helped her get an internship. Or he is has such a bad addiction that cost him to lose his money that she was right to stay away from him. Where's his money going? If he was a diplomat or federal employee, he would have the golden parachute CRS federal pension. And how many of your senior aunts and uncles do you communicate and stay in contact with.

The Uncle who publicly talked crap about her for the press? That uncle? In her position, I’d order some nice flowers and forego anything beyond a very simple note. Perhaps she has some happy, earlier memories that she’d like to honor though.


+1

Is this the uncle that pretty much insinuated she is an uppity negro?


Is this the uncle that got her the internship with the State dept in Argentina or is that another uncle? What did this uncle specifically say?


He said she is underclass and trying to rise beyond the reality of her situation.

He also said he would have been happy to stand in for her father to walk her down the aisle had he been invited to the wedding.


The offer was not for her benefit, but for his. After all, he publicly stated Meghan was not highborn to belong in the BRF.

But because I am a famous person, well, sorry, ma’am, there’s nothing we can do. It makes no sense … I am just not OK with it. It’s as simple as that. I am just a normal girl and a human being, and I haven’t been in this long enough to feel like this is my new normal. I’m not going to find peace with it.” – Vogue, September 2013


Unlike those celebs, Harry was born famous. He’s been groomed to navigate fame from the start. And his wife aggressively sought fame. Nonetheless, they continue to whine about privacy when what they actually want is to avoid any criticism. They want the platform and media attention…they just don’t want any critics.


Yep. Megan Fox and Jennifer Lawrence mostly got where they are on their own merits, not riding family coattails. That’s one big way in which they are different from H&M. Spears is mentally ill, so that a significant difference. If I hear Prince Charles publicly complain about how tough his life is, I’ll criticize him for it too.


Wow. Listen to you two. Harry can't dislike the lack of privacy because he was 'groomed to navigate fame from the start' and Meghan can't dislike it because she 'sought fame' without having merit. Just because someone seeks a high profile platform doesn't mean they should give up all expectation of privacy and control of their lives. They are entitled to choices.


Disagree.

Fame comes with a price.

Harry and Meghan could have opted to lead a quiet life anywhere on the planet. Bruce Willis and Demi Moore were legit A list celebs who left Hollywood at the top of their careers to lead a quiet life in Idaho for the benefit of their kids. Harry opted to plop his family next to Oprah and sell his story and future to anyone willing to pay. They don’t want privacy. They want attention, they want to be paid, but they don’t think anyone should be allowed to criticize them.

All celebs realize the press that sustains their careers and paychecks can be brutal. That’s why most people don’t read their press. They ignore it. But these two whine about it. They play victim. They are their own worst enemy.


+1. So much whining about their own victimhood! How long is the list of people or entities who have mistreated them?: The BRF for ignoring their mental health, the news media, Charles specifically as a parent, the unnamed family member who inquired about Archie’s skin, Kate for making Meghan cry, Meghan’s dad for failing her, almost everyone in the world for not asking how Meghan was doing in South Africa. I’m sure there are more. The list goes on and on.

Yup. All they do is blame, blame, blame everyone and everything else while painting themselves as shining, perfect figures.

And I know by writing that out I rose the blood pressure of the keyboard warriors who no doubt are furiously typing away as soon as they finish reading this comment, but I think it's true. Obviously very different people and very different situations, but also some undeniable parallels. It'll make for an amazing season of The Crown one day... and I'm only half-joking.


I agree. It is not a surprise Harry was attracted to someone as dramatic and chaotic as his mother. Unfortunately, Meghan is also incapable of loving anyone other than herself.



You know absolutely, positively, nothing about this woman except what you read in the media yet have the audacity to say she is incapable of loving anyone other than herself. What a ridiculous thing to say about someone you don’t know, even someone in the public eye. I wouldn’t even say that about Donald Trump or Derek Chauvin. You guys really need to check yourselves and why you hate this woman so much. What is it about her that would drive you to say such a thing about someone you don’t know and never will? It’s not normal. Even on an anonymous forum.


I don't think it is hatred - it is the realization that everything that M & H do is a microcosm of what rich entitled people do writ large. They do it badly and it is insulting. The foundations that collect 90% for overhead with little going to actual charity, the victim act when you are millionaires, the PR leaks, the flip-flopping lies that the media covers for, flying private jets while preaching about the environment and on and on and on. Nobody likes hypocrites and it's not just Meghan that is annoying, it is Harry too.

What utter BS. This is the former diplomat uncle who got Meghan her internship whom she did not invite to her wedding and she has not spoken to in years. Her father's brother. He happened to live in a trailer park.


WTF is a diplomat living in a trailer. It's either a lie that he was a diplomat who helped her get an internship. Or he is has such a bad addiction that cost him to lose his money that she was right to stay away from him. Where's his money going? If he was a diplomat or federal employee, he would have the golden parachute CRS federal pension. And how many of your senior aunts and uncles do you communicate and stay in contact with.

Not everyone has $hitty family values like you to throw away parents and relatives once they’ve outlived their usefulness .
