Markle brought on mush of the criticism all on her own:

Stupid things, but nonetheless, rarely or never wearing British designer clothes when at a special event. Insisting on privacy and not letting the public know the kid's godparents. When the British taxpayer spends $4 million to renovate your house...get the fuck out of bed, put a smile on your face and take a goddamn photo...and don't make everyone wait three days. Flying to NYC for a baby shower with her so-called "best friends" who she barely knows. Feuding with Will and Kate...not a good idea when it looks like you're to blame.

When I saw #weloveyouMeghan trending on twitter with a quote from her -something like "no one asked me how I'm doing", I remember think DL was going to have a field day with this one and yet - only 18 replies...

Based on this tepid response, perhaps #Meghanwho? should be trending

Harry really did marry his mum; it's only a matter of time before suicide attempts, eating disorders and other attention seeking behaviors come into play. It actually almost makes me feel sorry for the other royals in that, whatever they do, it will never be enough with this one. Eventually, it will come to light the kind of person she really is, but in the mean time, she's going to make their life hell - which will be particularly difficult once QEII dies & a lot of goodwill goes with her.

Meghan is nothing like Diana emotionally.

Diana sort of drifted towards the end, but she learned toughness and manipulation. Meghan is tough and manipulative (and I'm not saying that as bad thing - you do what you need to do) and focused. She thinks she can change the BRF - possibly she can.

But she needs to FUNDAMENTALLY change her game plan - it's not working. Those who love her, love her; the haters hate... But the undecideds are not being won over.

by Anonymousreply 23October 19, 2019 9:17 AM

I don't think MM can win any hearts or minds at this point. When people have made up their mind about you, anything you do is confirmatory evidence. She can't do right for doing wrong now, so she might as well do as she likes and not even try to fit in or make amends. She can just turn up or not turn up as she pleases, insist on privacy, spend and wear whatever she fancies, hang out with the people of her choosing, take as many private jets as are on offer. When you think you have nothing, you act as if you have nothing to lose.

by Anonymousreply 24October 19, 2019 9:26 AM

I know. It's too late.

This is a genuine shame. Everyone I know was so happy to see (formerly) beloved Harry married to someone he clearly loves.... We all celebrated in the pub. Everyone absentmindedly had high hopes for the two, and never gave a thought,

We NONE of us EVER imagined all this unneeded drama. It's actually tragic, because the people of the UK now hate them both. Both of them.

And there was no need for any of that. But now the public do loathe them, and there is absolutely no going back for them.

The thing is, R27, she stubbornly believes that her actions are correct and she is entitled to perform them, whether it's insisting on privacy, wearing and spending what she wants and all the rest mentioned in R24. She didn't expect this deluge of condemnation and is hurt and offended by it. She blames it all on racism and xenophobia.

R51 it wasn’t that people felt ‘entitled’ to see MM posing outside the hospital ‘just because Kate does it’, but let’s just think for a little minute about the quid pro quo here. We have a lovely biggish wedding by commoner standards with a nice little carriage ride to follow, with the peasant folk lining the streets and mostly cheering. That’s the quid - and plenty of them - the quo then is posing with the newborn, and it doesn’t have to be four hours after giving birth, but the time she chooses to leave hospital. And, in addition - Kate didn’t start that tradition. Princess Anne did.

by Anonymousreply 55October 19, 2019 12:34 PM

R151 What do you think the point of the Royal Family is? Do you think we forked out £35m on their wedding because they are such lovely people?

They are a family who, in return for the titles, unimaginable privilege, riches, 24 hour security, palaces and tax-payer funded “cottages” live lives of “duty” and “service”. Being too petty to show off the new member of the family in the traditional way is a smack in the face.

As much as the press are going on about Smug & Mug doing things “differently”, there’s no really scope for that.

Their loyalty is supposed to be to the Brits first and foremost - how does trying to be “global humanitarians” fit with that? We’re fucking paying their expenses. And the BRF are not “humanitarians” at all - and don’t pretend to be. Their role is to shine a light on those real humanitarians out there actually making a difference in the world, who do more than dress in Oscar de La Renta and play spot the camera.

Showing off their child is an awfully small price to pay for everything they get in return - and making it all into a messy circus as they did was just offensive to the people who will be paying this kid’s fucking bills until (at least) adulthood.

If she and Harry so dislike how the BRF conduct things and truly feel they were meant for better and brighter pursuits, that's perfectly fine. Harry ought to renounce his royal title and they can both stop taking money from the British citizens, then. If they are as wonderous and special as they believe they are, they'll have no problem supporting themselves in a similar level of lifestyle, or better.

That’s what I’m saying. It’s one thing to demand ‘service’ and another thing to demand being shown the fruit of her womb as soon as she pushes it out. The former is fair, the latter is sick.

There was definitely a way they could have avoided the hospital steps business. Their kid is not important so doing it without all the hoo-ha would have been OK. They just needed to be very clear about that.

They way they did it felt like they considered it none of anyone’s business. And that’s not the case. They are our business so long as we’re picking up the tab.

How self-absorbed and egotistical of them to even do this pseudo-documentary about THEIR feelings. The word narcissist gets lobbied around a lot but she really is a textbook example. The problem with Markle is that her head is so far up her ass that she doesn’t realize that people with a normal IQ can see right through her disingenuous, insincere, melodramatic shit. All I see is a big, hammy actress, crocodile tears, and a greedy as fuck climber who’s butt hurt that no one likes her. She refuses to introspect and see the role she has played in shaping public opinion.

Why has no one asked if she’s okay? Mmmmm...while the rest of us will be hauling in our trash bins and cleaning gutters today, we know she is sitting on a plush divan ringing a tiny bell for Jeeves to bring her eggs benedict, extra hot Darjeeling tea with a twist of lemon and a warm, buttery scone, all on a gilded trolley decorated with fresh camellias. Consuela the nanny will bring out the baby (dressed in cashmere Givenchy) for five minutes after changing his diaper and bathing him. And there she’ll be on the divan, with a gold iPad, ready to hit the order button on Net-A-Porter, a $30,000 gown for her next event. You’re ok, bitch, you’re more than ok.

R61 It's not such much that they refused to show the kid , it's that they confused secrecy with privacy while at the same time overestimating their status . If Kate and William can stand on some stairs and face a wall of fotographer with the future King of the country and then Meghan and Harry can do so too . They claimed they did this to protect the doctors and nurses associated with the birth from press harassment , but nobody gave more than a fart about the Kate's medical team . Same later with the god parents , they want privacy and protection from press harassment that has never happened to any of the Cambridge kids' godparents . Then you had the private jet circus , nobody would have given two fucks about it if Harry hadn't preached about global warming at a rich people conference . That came across very much as "do as I say not do as I do ". And now you have tone deaf whining about the hardships of their hyper priviledged lives while on a tour to visit poor South Africans .

I personally think Meghan probably wanted she and Harry to be like Brangelina in their peak...glamourous and globetrotting. I don’t think she accounted for all of the restrictions and politics. I do think she is getting bad advice and I wouldn’t be surprised if they have “friends” who secretly don’t want them to do well.

This is a profoundly stupid remark given that Markle spent over £1m on clothes in less than a year. Kate spends around £50k on average.

This is the problem with Meghan’s fans....serious confirmation bias.

I'm guessing Meghan made more than enough money to pay for her own clothes. But then again, I don't really follow the Royals.

So do tell, how did Kate make a living before she landed a prince? Did she actually have an education, and make enough money to support herself, or did she just live off others peoples fortune? Kate may wear all the fancy clothes, but I bet she wears butch panties, and loves to boss around Wimpy Will.

This is a woman who has ghosted people in her life.

Who mailed back her rings back to her husband.

Who was living with a guy when she hooked up with Harry.

Who dumped the father that not long before she only had glowing comments about.

Who began her association with her soon to be in laws with a petty blind item about her future sister-in-law.

Who refused to invite family members from either side of her family (excepting her mother), people who were a part of her young life and who helped her with her career, to her wedding, instead inviting celebrities who did not know her at all.

Who, despite being given advisors about how to become part of the RF has obviously ignored said advice.

Who, in spite of receiving funds from the UK taxpayers for her role in the RF, refuses, except on very rare occasions, to wear clothes designed by people of the country paying her way.

Who has ignore protocol, pushing ahead of her husband at events where he is the senior attendee.

Who has thrown a fit about the selection of tiaras generously provided by her future husband's grandmother, THE QUEEN, because she wanted on that was not on offer (indicating that she had already been scoping out QEII's jewelry collection.

So, who remains in her life that would want to ask about her mental health?

Yeah, sure....6 years as a supporting cast member on a little known cable show, being filmed in Canada to save money, can easily find £1m to spend on one year’s worth of clothes 🙄

Get real. I’m sure she did well enough, but she was living in a rented terraced house and was never seen in bespoke Givenchy before landing the rich, titled man.

And this “career” you’re so impressed with. Dropped it like a hot potato as soon as there was a chance to live off a rich man and his family for the rest of her life, didn’t she? Don’t blame her for that...Suits was due to end and an untalented, ageing starlet like her didn’t have much of a future as an actress. So she did what women like her have been doing for millennia - opened her legs.

Not sure what Kate’s got to do with anything. I’m not a particular fan of her either. She is doing her job and she’s doing it well unlike the showboating old tart with the bad nose job, reconstructed tits and pleasant habit of speaking to staff like shit that you’re so devoted to.

Posted this before, but I'll say it again: Markle went to school with us (being in my sister's year) and she was: mean. Saccharine, conniving and yes, cruel.

We've watched with interest as she's come upon the World stage. It's been fascinating to observe her interactions with others, and how the parallels stemming back from our time with her exist. (One with think she would grow....and mature. Sadly, not.)

Nevertheless, I say this repeatedly: observe her actions. She is an actress (albeit, not a very good one, AND can cry on cue) and what she has done to her father, former husband, former friends, BRF, press and the British public (as well as those in Oz, Africa and Morocco that she slagged off) speaks volumes.

Her words of "feminism", "empowerment", "male, pale and stale" ring hollow given her latest cries of victimization and not being "okay".

It was the same drill in school: she would pull some mean (and often shockingly, racist) stunt against those less popular in class, and then whine relentlessly and play victim when called out for it.

I am hopeful people are perceptive and see beyond her artifice (as it seems many do here on DL).

Okay, here's the deal: Markle is basically unlikable. She's a pretentious pain in the arse. She thought her global, humanitarian, woke, private, public, secret, spend-money-it's-not-my-money, leave me alone, adore me shit didn't stink. Then she found out no one cared. The only break I'll give her is basically the bottom line: She's homesick.

Markle thought she wanted this life. But she hates it. She's a stranger in a strange land. She's not comfortable trying to fit into a family she doesn't like and into a role she doesn't understand. But she's there; she has to deal with it, and she's homesick. It overwhelms her every move. All of her so-called "best friends" hardly know her--and besides, they have their own lives, which is not in the UK. She's lonely and feels abandoned. It's the same thing Diana and Sarah went through when they were first married. The BRF ignored them, but at least they were British--they were home. And they took it upon themselves to fulfill their roles and do their jobs. No matter what was going happening at home, Diana and Sarah knew their jobs was to engage with the public as Princess of Wales and Duchess of York, and they believed in the monarchy. Markle doesn't believe in any of this and views it as nonsense unless it's benefiting her. She doesn't think her role as Duchess of Sussex is a job to serve the people. Her mentality is hugely different from Diana and Sarah.

Markle is homesick. She's lonely. She's lost. And she's an American; she's not a Brit. This is all foreign to her, and she can't/won't get used to it. Her homesickness is overwhelming her every move, her every "duty." Everything she wears, everything she says comes across awkward, clumsy with an off-putting attitude and out of sorts. The best thing in the world for her would have been to try to get along for a while and live at Kensington Palace. She would have been in the city. She might have made a friend or two with Kate, Bea, Eug or Zara. It might have helped her loneliness. But she knew better and didn't think she needed it. The other young female royals are not the worst people in the world, and they actually seem like nice girls. But for whatever reason, Markle and Harry ended up at Frogmore Cottage further isolating themselves and specifically isolating Markle. Harry's not homesick. Harry's home. But homesickness is soul-crushing. And Markle's got it bad. Her arrogance and feeling alone are the main reasons she doesn't feel "okay."

[quote] 122]-it must be gratifying to see that the majority of the British public see right through her.

Actually, as an American, it's embarrassing and cringe-worthy to see her on the world stage. I would have loved to have seen Harry happily marry someone who was supportive and emphasize his greater qualities.

Unfortunately, Markle is another reminder of how Americans seem ill-Suited (no pun intended...but...if the Suit fits....) for royal marriages. Wallis was another disaster. (And apparently Philip called Markle DOW2 - Duchess of Windsor2 - early on. He was eerily prescient in his predictions as he was apparently not pleased with either: both buckets of difficulty.)

Megs (as she chose to be called in school), was a demanding, difficult individual. We both avoided her. AND she would go around diminishing others less fortunate in order to elevate herself. Thus, seeing her call others "racist" (especially when called out for her BEHAVIOR) is especially ironic and staggeringly hypocritical.

There are red flags surrounding her for others to identify: treatment of staff, hypocritical statements (wanting "privacy", then flaunting everything on IG and in documentaries), preaching environmentalism and flogging the carbon footprint (with private jets and creating additional clothing to benefit fake besties like Misha Nonoo), accusatory statements (press, BRF, public), thoughtlessly attending events (Wimbledon, NYC half-million dollar baby shower), exorbitant spending (£1 million in clothing last year: more than any other Western royal), showing up briefly for royal functions and ignoring protocols, etc., etc. The list goes on and on.

It is rather disappointing....and sometimes frustrating to see others (often who have the same public relations support of the aggressive PR firm, Sunshine Sachs), publicly support her: Ellen, The Clooneys, Hilliary, Elton, etc.

[quote] She seems like a truly awful person.

Agree with R128, and it's that discomfort/homesickness that she was able to draw on to realistically convey "sad" for her big camera moment. I think she wants to be an A-list, LA mom dabbling in good works and the rest of the time enjoying her wealth. Instead she's stuck in the middle of nowhere, and even if she and Harry have friends (do they?), it's not the same as shopping/lunching/entertaining/yoga classing/Cabo, Aspen tripping/woke parenting in LA.

And lol at the 6 weeks "family time" they're taking. If they're really both hurting, they should take a leave of absence immediately and get help. Instead, it's royal duties until mid-Nov, then their family time, ie, a long vacation. Poor them.

Mad Men was one of the most expensive series in TV history. It was also syndicated world wide & ended up on such channels as the BBC. Most of it’s viewers came from the rest of the world, not it’s original broadcaster. Same with Breaking Bad & The Wire.

Suits stayed exactly where it was because no other channel wanted it. So maybe it did get more viewers on it’s original channel than Mad Men did. So what? When you look at overall viewing figures and money made in it’s ENTIRETY, Mad Men is an elephant to the ant Suits.

Suits airs all over too. Suits was actually so popular that it was remade in a South Korean version and a Japanese version. Netflix paid Mad Men $1 million an episode for streaming rights. That's not much. Plus that money has to be split with all the actors for residuals. It didn't earn the network very much money when it was aired because it cost so much to film. It actually cost so much that it fucked up Breaking Bad's budget and they had to split the 5th series into 2 parts

So keep going on and on how Suits was just some little show on a cable network and act like it didn't earn any money. It did. You may not want to admit it, but it did. That's why it was on for about 8 seasons. You can complain about a lot of things about Meghan, but that show isn't one of them

A "wealthy worthwhile BOY".... Well, he is decompensating in public.

Harry appears to be decompensating: laughing and crying at inappropriate moments, looking more and more unhappy, losing weight and showing up in wrinkled, worn clothing while lashing out at others.

And Meghan also looks worse for wear: ill-fitting clothing, weight gain, scraggly/unkempt hair.

No one had ever heard of Meghan Markle. Everyone has heard of Jon Hamm & Bryan Cranston.

Suits, The Wire, Breaking Bad and Mad Men won awards by the bucket load...Emmys, Golden Globes, you name it.

Suits won ONE - from something called “Imagen”, whatever the hell that is.

Really, grow up a bit. She WAS a supporting cast member on a little-known cable show. Fact.

And by the way....no one is “complaining about the show”. We are taking issue with the stupid idea that Markle was some millionaire bigshot TV star with a high-flying career.

She was an ageing starlet with one role of note, and nothing else on her horizon. Which is exactly why she was actively looking for a rich, famous, English boyfriend.

And she got one, didn’t she?

R152 and R160, while I would certainly prefer to live in Windsor and don't consider it to be the middle of nowhere, I hypothesize that MM might prefer LA celeb/billionaire life to upper class English country life.

Prompted by the furious debate, I went to Wikipedia to read about “Suits”. I had never heard of it until Harry proposed to Meghan.

The Wiki entry doesn’t do justice to its STAR, and doesn’t even mention her royalty. It does mention that a “Suits” character has a spinoff show, though.

I suspect that “Suits” has a small cult following, and that one of its is here commenting. I adore Little Edie, but most people have no idea who she is. There are NASCAR superstars, Bollywood superstars, etc.

Reminds me of one of David Sedaris’s stories where he talks about popular kids. They’re legend at your own school, but a few towns over, no one knows who they are. And a few towns over, kids whisper in reverential tones about some kids you’ve never heard of.

Sorry, but “Suits” is some popular kid I don’t recognize because I go to another school.

I watched the first three episodes of Suits some years ago. I thought it was shite and didn’t continue. The whole premise was too absurd to make me suspend disbelief - and the acting throughout was a bit clunky and smug.

I actually didn’t remember Markle from it at all when the relationship leaked. I went back and watched a bit of the first episode again out of curiosity, but even seeing her there didn’t ring any bells.

She was an unforgettable part of an unforgettable (and, imo, not very good) show.

While I do think it’s really funny that they asked to move into Windsor Castle and got shunted into a “cottage” so unimportant it was divided up into staff bedsits......living in the middle of Windsor Great Park would be pretty amazing for anyone.

I grew up in Surrey and a Sunday treat was taking the dogs to Windsor. It’s stunning and special. Anyone who thinks it’s a shithole has never been there.

Not that much to do nearby, though. Just the usual chain shops and a few nice restaurants. Few poshos live there even though it’s home to Eton...which stands to reason because Eton is exclusively boarding so no one needs to live there.

The essays troll is creepy.

After seven years on Suits plus scores of endorsements, and big magazines paying her for interviews, and the sale of her LA house, MM was worth $5m at the time of her marriage. She spent her own money on designer clothes.

Harry: ““The rest of our lives, especially our life’s work, will be predominantly focused on Africa.”

While the Brits pick up our tab. Er.......

at R176, "bonn" should be "and"

Some on Twitter think Harry will be working on his documentary with Oprah while in the US.
