Do you think there is an inside royal leaking bad press about Duchess Meghan?

Ah, that makes sense. But Diana was a child when she married Charles. Meghan is a grown woman who knows how to stand up for herself. I think Harry picked her for good reason.

PP here. Even a grown woman is going to have trouble coming up against the Royal machine. They have experts and staff who have done this for decades. Keeping people in line is very important to the royal family and they do it well. Look at this thread and the many other threads on Meghan Markle. You have people here buying all of the leaks and tabloid rumors hook line and sinker, as if they are personally privy to all the goings on.

This is so reminiscent of what they did to Diana. I remember being a teenager in the 80s and reading week after week after week about how crazy, difficult, and controlling Diana was. People have forgotten how Diana was bashed for not being able to get along with Tiggy and the boys’ many nannies. They are using the exact same smear campaign against Meghan, complete with allegations she can’t get along with the help.


Spot on, and exactly right. But even worse here, because it's being directed by Harry's own brother and sister-in-law. What awful people.



You conspiracy theorists are nuts.

PP who wrote about Diana here. It is verified fact that leaks about her came from the royal family. Reporters have confirmed this. Likewise, reporters confirmed that, by the 90s, Diana was leaking stories as well in retaliation. It all came out during the divorce and then more later in the year after she died. You’re clearly new to coverage of the royal family, or maybe just very young.



I was referring to those who think MM's PR woes are due to some conspiracy against her like Diana. Sorry folks, MM brought this all on herself. I secretly think it is her own PR team manufacturing these stories to get sympathy/keep her in the news. There is some blind out there that MM's PR team has a contract with People magazine that they must run 10 stories/reference her 10 times per month. Clothing references would count.


How do you know that MM is not being targeted by the royals? You’re speculating as much as anyone else. At least those who point out the types of leaks, timing, and the BRF’s track record here have some sense behind their posts. You’re just going by tabloid rumors.

For anyone trying to defend MM’s outrageous wardrobe costs and clothing choices—it’s been clearly documented that she’s already outspent Kate by 20 times in less than a year as a royal. Kate is well known for wearing budget street brands frequently and being frugal in her wardrobe budget. Perhaps MM could take a hint from her SIL, but it’s doubtful that she will considering MM seems to think she knows better than everyone else and that the entire royal family should conform to her.

+1

I think given the history of the BRF here (which is, as PP pointed out, confirmed), the far more reasonable assumption is that the negativity is exaggerated and coming from the BRF rather than naively and blindly believing the negative coverage.

It would make sense that the BRF would want to get Meghan reined in before the baby is born. They don't need her questioning that the baby have a proper Royal upbringing.

Do you agree? Whom do you think is behind this? William? Kate? the Queen?

I have always wondered if the queen actually likes Meghan. Maybe SHE was the one leaking bad press this whole time?


It's Russia, they have infiltrated a mole..

Putin has found a way to make both Americans and British look foolish.

Meghan visits her new patronage, SmartWorks, an organization to help unemployed women with interview clothing and skills. Tone-deaf MM shows up wearing an Oscar de la Renta coat and accessories costing nearly $4000.



so obnoxious



And if she hadn't dressed nicely you and Will's proxy whisperers in the press would be complaining about how insulting it was that she didn't dress nicely.


MM could rewear an outfit, especially a coat, every now and then, you know. High street fashion (mass market brands from a store like Macy's) don't cost a fortune and would have been more appropriate in this instance. It doesn't take a lot of money to dress well, look nice and know your audience.

I repeat, she is tone-deaf. Especially since the British public is critical of her extravagant clothing choices.


There is literally nothing she could wear that you would not criticize her for.


Did you even read my post? Re-wearing a coat for this occasion would have been appropriate. Wearing a store brand/mass market brand would have worked. No, she wants to always promote some new brand. So obnoxious, as some other PP wrote.



I read your post, but let's be honest. You would have criticized her if she'd reworn a coat as well. Don't pretend she could ever do anything you would be positive about.


She did rewear that brown / tan coat! Sheesh

NP. She comes across as arrogant. Does it matter? Not really, but it's not the best look.

The Duchess of Cambridge quickly became known for her thrifty ways, championing high street brands such as Zara, Reiss and L.K Bennett, not to mention her knack of recycling outfits. In contrast, Meghan has delved straight into the haute couture designs of Givenchy, Dior and Oscar de la Renta.

And in Kate's first year as a royal: Although royal finances are notoriously hard to come by, it was revealed in 2012 that Middleton had spent a eye-watering $70,000 on clothing that financial year.

You women are so nutty.

No one claims to know her. She comes across as arrogant based on the articles we have read about her. Her supposed actions inform our opinion.

Yes, I don't know her. Probably will never meet her. All I can base my opinion of her on is what I hear about her.
