[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I really enjoyed the first 3/4 of this book, some good tea and good insights into how the royal family works. I went in not being on team harry or team anyone else. But what has struck me is how much Harry puts Megan on a pedestal. She never made one mistake, she was like mother freaking theresa. It was always everyone else's fault. Its like he is projecting the image people had of Diana on Megan. I hope he continues therapy because this is not sure to end well.[/quote]

Megan is his wife.  Why would you expect him to throw her under the bus for his family who in his opinion, threw him under the bus? You want him to be on the outs with everybody in his life?  He's already chosen a side. [/quote]

Certainly not. TBS, admitting someone made a mistake or accepting responsibility for misunderstandings is not throwing your wife under the bus - its being authentic and human. He describes her in a light that seems like he's full of BS or blinded. He was so authentic in the rest of the book, which is why it struck me as so odd.[/quote]

He is blinded. That is William's issue with them.[/quote]

It’s his wife! That’s who he is riding with now. Not his brother or father, who by the way, have happily screwed Harry over for their wives and in the name of the Crown, for years. Anyway, of course he is blinded. As he should be. All of you all who think they makes sense for him to lay out her mistakes in book and “accept responsibility” can’t be married.  [/quote]

Thats not quite what I meant - here's an example... when William pushed harry into the dog bowl and Meg finally found out about it he said she didn't even get mad, just sad. That's a load of crap. I'd be pissed as hell. I don't believe the way he characterizes her at all. [/quote]

Goodness. Why the need to get mad? What would that have accomplished. She had probably already gone through the anger stage with that family and their antics. She was either at the depression or acceptance stage where it came to William and Harry’s relationship. [/quote]

There is no "need" to get mad.  But I have an entire Family Relationship subthread to tell me that people get mad at their in-laws for a whole lot less.[/quote]

DP.  It’s also possible that Meghan was angry but felt it wouldn’t be helpful to Harry for her to express that emotion rather than the sadness she felt for him.  We wouldn’t necessarily know that from Harry’s book. [/quote]

Your brother-in-law pushes your husband so hard that he that he’s got scratches on his back and broke the dogs bowl? You’re not even slightly ticked, protective or annoyed? It’s just too much the way he tries to describe this. She’s a human freaking being. It’s like he’s overcompensating for the horrible things. The media says about her by betraying her as pure perfection. Nobody is that way.  [/quote]

I don’t know what to tell you.  Sorry the book didn’t give you enough new fodder to fuel your Meghan-rage.

I mean, he also never says a negative word about Diana and treats her as a saint, but that doesn’t seem to draw nearly the same level of ire.  Same goes for Chelsy, Cressida, Marko, etc.  Does that make you angry too?[/quote]

DP.  I don't have any Meghan rage.  The point is that it doesn't make Harry very believable.[/quote]

DDP: So don’t believe him. Shrug.  Different people really are different. That, for me, is one of the things that can make memoirs interesting.
