Most actresses are washed up by 40 anyway, so she doesn't have too many more years. Maybe she'll get a big movie after this. Good for her! And good for Harry! I think they are a cute couple.

If she marries Harry and stays in England and takes acting lessons, she will not be washed up at 40. England employs many older actors and she can act into her 80, like Dame Eikern Atkins, if she wishes

Pathetic!

He claimed her and defended her back in November 2016.

Not the same as a VF article. I'll wait.

You're right, it's not the same as a VF article. It hold much more weight than a VF article because it's on freaking Kensington Palace letterhead.

Unless it is written on goatskin like a proper declaration, it is meh

Did you not read the actual press release in the Elle article that was issued by Kensington Palace, with Harry's royal "H" featured prominently at the top? Here's a link from the official royal UK site:

https://www.royal.uk/statement-communications-secretary-prince-harry

Yes honey. I did read that. I'm waiting for the I love her article. You got that?

Hi my cynical sister. We will have the last laugh come Boxing Day 2017 when Harry is at Sandringham and Meghan is at a spa in Bratislava

I'm certain this was approved by the palace. Otherwise she would be dumped already

Looking more and more like they are leading up to an engagement announcement, as all the insiders are saying

This was definitely approved by the palace. In fact, it may have been pushed/encouraged by the palace.

Meghan isn't promoting anything in this interview- her show, any side business, not even any philanthropy. There's not even much meat to the interview section of the article, other than the quotes about Harry. This seems to be a preapproved first stage in the media rollout of their engagement.

She is dating the spare not the heir. The palace is not concerned about her. The Queen and the family will be polite but they won't interfere. She really doesn't matter as much as Kate who bore the current heir and spare.

When was the last time yuh read anything about Princess Anne or the Prines Andrew or Edward? Harry is in their situation.

The palace is concerned about her, as they actually released a press release about her protecting her, which is practically unheard of from them.

Prince Harry is a major star in GB, much more desired than his brother. You are as clueless as you are confident

"The Palace" refers to a statement by Queen Elizabeth II. The communications secretary to Prince Harry issued a statement about Meghan Markel, not a press release.

And it was approved by the palace. And they'll be engaged soon. Doesn't that kill you?

Right? I love Kates style and she seems very warm but lets face it her face is NOT attractive.

Oh, I disagree. I think Kate is beautiful. Her face is so pretty and I'd die for her hair and legs.

Good point. Kate still trips over her words when she gives speeches. Meghan seems much more assured and confident even though she's not even officially engaged yet.

Meghan is an actress - she's used to speaking in public and speaking confidently and clearly. Kate was a private citizen before marrying William. Honestly, I think people are way too hard on Kate (at least here in DCUM-land). I've heard her speak and she has a quiet self-assuredness and a lovely speaking voice.

Well, 40 is hardly "old," but she is 36.

She looks way older than 36. I think Kate is much more beautiful than Meghan. I actually think Meghan is homely. But good luck to them...

omg no way. only a racist would say something like that.

Meghan Markle is an objectively beautiful woman.

Kate Middleton was a pretty college student.

Huuuuge difference between the two.

Ummm... what?? Are you calling anyone who thinks Kate is more beautiful than Meghan a RACIST?? Wow. And we wonder what's wrong with this country.

Another in the "Kate is not that cute" camp. But she seems relentlessly loyal and basically clung to Will like a barnacle until she got her man... so... there's that, if you find that inspiring.

She looks like a tan white girl.

Minirities who pass for white have always had the easiest time assimilating.

I don't think she herself purposely passed for white at all. I believe her when she says she is proud of being biracial.

http://www.elleuk.com/life-and-culture/news/a26855/more-than-an-other/

Even her Suits character is presented as biracial with Wendell Pierce playing her father. Her other roles were so minor that ambiguity was less about "passing" than blink and you miss her.

It's not the character she plays that makes her white identified.
She keeps her hair straight reducing the chances she'll be instantly seen as biracial and/or part black.
She largely surrounds herself by white people.
She has not spoken out about black issues.
Considering she is biracial this makes sense.
People acting like this is a "win" for minorities or black people are wrong.

Are you the same poster claiming "racism" at all times? You've got some serious issues. You're the one making a huge deal out of her ethnicity/race. Why can't you just see her as a person - who cares what race she is or how she identifies?? It's your identity politics that's keeping this country divided.

Yes. I know minorities like her. They are treated as, and think of themselves as "tan white girls." The historical issues people of color face do not apply to them because they do not look very different than white people. They wear their hair straight, only hangout with white people, dress like whites people, make white people cultural references.

When you ask them about race they say race isn't really a thing.

So then, in your view, a person of mixed (black/white) race can ONLY identify as black? What if that person chooses to identify as white? And why the hell do you care??

You guys do know that many biracial people have naturally straight hair right? As an actress, I'm sure she straightens her hair to get roles. Remember, white people are scared of AA/biracial natural hair. How do you guys know who she surrounds herself with? She states Serena Williams is one her closest friends. Serena maybe be having a baby with a white dude, but she stands for blackness all day long.

Also to prove you're black you have to speak out about black issues?

Do you guys speak out about "white" issues?

What else must one do to pass the black test?

Aw are your feelings hurt that somebody spoke the truth about your idol? FYI Serena is white identified too.

I would say you and people like you are the biggest racists around. All you obsess over are people's race. Get a grip - and a life.

You know cause I got some free time, I'm going to play with you. In what world is Serena Williams "white identified"?

Is it her big butt?

Her CRIPT walking when winning Wimbledon?

Her donating over 3 million dollars to AA inner city tennis clubs?

Opening a school in Africa?

Is it because she wears weave?

Is it being a Jevoha's Witness?

Is it because she's worth over $150 million dollars?

I mean what is it?

In fact, please define what makes one "white identified"?

she has chosen to procreate with a white man, her daughter will l grow up predominately surrounded by white people/white culture and like her mother view blackness as a charitable cause. She likely like Meghan have a whit husband and so on any children from their and all of Serena's legacy and funds will mostly benefit white people. Live vicariously through Serena and Meghan all you want but don't for a second think they are doing anything to change anything for black people.

And you are? Why is it the responsibility of others to "change anything for black people"? Maybe that change should come from within. I bet that never even occurred to you.

Interesting observation. I don't get that because Harry and Meghan don't seem tumultuous or volatile at all, just really happy and confident together. I don't think they have been angry the few times that the press has photographed them together. They seem grounded. JFK Jr. and Carolyn Bessette were caught fighting in Central Park, had other public tiffs and were known to have broken up more than once before they wed. He even purportedly spent the night before they died in a hotel after a spat - also from a Vanity Fair piece I think - before taking of to fly to Hyannis for Rory Kennedy's wedding.

I feel the same whirlwind vibe about it, not mature love, but more passion the lure of something new and exciting Bloomds fast and fades faster. There is also Jr and Harry are a lot a like in personality. Imoulsivity drawn to a woman that will direct them a bit like an older sibling or mother figure.

Meghan is like Carolyn in that I get a strong manipulative vibe ffrom her in that she is like Diana, but not unkind.

Not trying to be mean here, but you seem to have given this *way* too much thought.
