Harry was a darling of the press when he was with the Cressidas and the Chelsea's.Blonde,upper class.There was a very interesting article in the daily mail about 10 years ago,Harry went to some miss world show(details are sketchy,dont know where this was)anyway out of a long line of women he chose a black woman to take out for a dance.The comment section picked up on this and said Harry always had a preference for black women and would go on to marry a black woman one day.I found it interesting as this was well before Megs.I still think there is strong enough racist view held in British establishments like the media and royalty that would have never have given her a fair shot.I dont like her but she was never given a fair trial.I'm surprised that this is never picked up on but all the royal women are treated like shit,the media never fawned over the only female child the queen had,Princess Ann..Meghan you never stood a chance.
Wowzers. That’s an unusual POV on here. Not sure how you work it out either.
Meghan was given far more chances than any of the previous royal brides. I also think that generally people generally were very excited by her joining the RF. She and Doria were invited to spend Christmas with them before she married Harry. This had never happened before.
She was invited on the royal train and accompanied the Queen to an event very early on. Katie, Sophie etc had to wait a very long time before they were given this invitation. In fact, hasn’t Kate only just had her first trip on the train?
There was so much hype and excitement around Meghan and it felt that people were genuinely very happy for them both.
What went wrong was her obvious contempt for the RF and traditions, her disinterest and refusal to follow protocol, disrespect for the Queen, her entitlement and her complete lack of work ethic. She NEVER wanted to be a working royal. She just wanted the sparkly tiaras, the status, the money, the special treatment. There are repeated accounts of her treating the palace employees like shit. Shouting at them, throwing a cup of tea at one in Australia, refusing to accept advice and riding roughshod over royal traditions and the expectation that she did her job.
It was made quite clear to her before they married what would be expected and she was given the chance to not have a title and to keep acting and have her freedom. But no, she wanted the title, she reassured everyone she had so much experience and would hit the ground running.
But she didn’t. She never had any intention of doing any of it. All those merchandising trademarks were licensed either before her marriage or just after, I can’t remember. She wanted the family money and to use their name to make her own money. Not for her a wet and windy afternoon in Hartlepool opening an old people’s home. No, she wanted this grand idea of Sussex royal, rubbing shoulders with celebrity and merchandising the royal family.
She shafted them. She was given every chance and she took them all, used them to her advantage then she and Harry left citing a desire for privacy and terrible racism. What complete crap.
They have never been more prominent in the press and social media since they left. What happened to the privacy? They don’t want privacy. They want money and fame. She’s a grifter and saw Idiot Harry as a lucrative and easy target and my god, she was right.
She’s got the morals and principles of an alley cat. She wasn’t hard done by. She didn’t leave because her life was so awful and she was treated so badly. She never intended to stay. She whines and bitches and takes as much as she can from as many as she can. Her comments have been dishonest and her behaviour spiteful. Look at the way she treated her dad.
I don’t know where you get this idea that she was never given a chance. She was given far too many chances.
With regard to Ann, I get the impression that she never wanted to be a high profile royal. She has been a staunch supporter of her chosen charities and worked exceptionally hard for them for years. She represented her country at the Olympics in eventing I think. She has been able to pursue the things she is interested in without having to be a high profile social figure. I don’t think she would want to be the heir. She seems very happy with her life.
Where does the idea she has been treated poorly come from or is it just following the narrative of poor, mistreated Meghan? The Queen treated Meghan so badly therefore she probably didn’t love her daughter either Just to show how evil the Queen is???
I know the Queen has favourites but of all of her kids, Ann seems the most stable and happy.
I think you are very wrong about Meghan. She’s no victim whatever she says.
