[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think it's kind of unfair to compare Kate and Meghan because they had such different backgrounds. Kate didn't work for 10 years prior to her marriage because her family is rich, they wanted to run in those aristocratic circles, and that's the norm in that social class. None of those people really work for a living. They all have extensive family money or they do super glam jobs like club promotion or fashion PR, etc. Meghan didn't grow up with those advantages.[/quote] That is why Kate bagged the wrong guy. William is an aristocrat but he actually has a super glamorous but full time, very stressful job; being an official and very high profile official of the U.K. government. All the perks that come with his life are only afforded to him with the expectation of elevating his office, prestige and status so as to justify his relationships with global heads or states. He is expected to work and work his butt off especially in this era of general public malaise about and suspicion of the importance of the monarchy. They need to be out there actively engaged and proving their worth every day so as to appease people nationally and globally that the monarchy is an institution that’s worth keeping around. Kate’s job as Williams wife is tremendous and is a massive responsibility. She is too stupid to really understand it and treats it as a glamorous SAHM side gig. Meghan being the smart scrappy hard worker that she is will and does understand her massive obligations.She has a vision and a plan. [b]Kate is going to be massively outshined her her. [[/b]/quote] I doubt she cares. Whatever Meghan does or doesn't do, Kate will always be on top. She's the future queen, no matter what. ^ And that says what's wrong with that system in a nutshell (effort and merit don't matter, position through birth and marriage are all).[/quote] Actually I'd say that mindset would have worked if this was 1850. But it'll be 2050 before Kate MAYBE takes the throne. You can't live your life thinking 'I'm going to be Queen so for the first 50 years I'm doing jack squat'. The Queen is 92 and could live to 100. Her mother was 102 when she passed. Charles is as healthy as a horse at 69 just like his father who just had a hip replacement at 97. That's 30 years before she sees a throne. [/quote]
