[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]PP that brought up Princess Michael...I had never heard of her so I looked her up.  She’s a 76 year old who married QE2’s first cousin. So that makes her what a cousin by marriage twice removed to Harry?  Her father was literally a Nazi and she appears to have been born in nazi-occupied Czechoslovakia, so if anyone is looking to her as the standard bearer for race relations, they are probably looking in the wrong place.  Knowing nothing about the BRF, I’d guess they pretty much ignore her.[/quote]

You might be right about all of that. But Princess Michael sure was making a point of some sort when she wore that brooch when Meghan first met the extended family. Obviously I have no way of knowing what the rest of the family did or didn’t do in response to that. And obviously I have no idea how Meghan herself felt. As a Black woman who has spent a lot of time in majority white spaces, I DO think that this welcome-to-the-family gesture is one that might be both painful and difficult to dismiss.
