I’ve been reading along for a while and not really commented. So this is my two pence on the situation. She was working on a show and doing ok for herself, but not really earning the big bucks. It was reported she earned £350,000 a year for the role. While this is a lot of money to most people, it’s a drop in the ocean compared to other actors. For example the Friends cast were earning a $1 million each an episode towards the end. I have since watched Suits and she is not a very good actress on a mediocre show. I think she knew this, and this was probably as best as it was going to get for her as an actress.
This is probably why she was on the hunt for a rich man. She knew if she wanted to get in the big leagues, her lack of talent wasn’t going to get her there. Maybe this is why she was an ambassador for the UN and the charity work, potential to meet important and wealthy people? I think she got lucky when she met Harry. I do believe that she didn’t think she would be under so much scrutiny by the tabloids. I think she thought that the British public love Harry so much that he could do no wrong and this would be extended to her. I believe she got a shock when things began to unravel and she’s not getting her own way. I think they’re both spoilt and not used to being told no. I get the impression she liked the idea of being a princesses, but the reality is very different.
I also think that she was threatened by how close he was to his family. I think when someone isn’t close to their own family, (she hasn’t spoken to her siblings for years, gone on to disown her father) she can’t understand a close family dynamic. She may not of deliberately caused the rift between the brothers, but that doesn’t mean you can’t make a effort to try and heal it.
Sorry, I rambled on there for a bit!!!!
