Really wish Jez would respect the Sussexes a little bit and drop the stupid nickname. I hate that so much. Meghan has been through enough already, as Jez used to point out. Yes she is a rich famous person but so are many women Jez crushes on (Cardi i.e). She seems to be a charitable and decent person who got caught up…

I wouldn’t trust him to tell the truth about what he ate for breakfast. Here’s hoping that he’ll be disqualified as a witness in pre-trial motions. I’m sure he’d still show up to stir some shit around but give him a smaller stage. 

If you read the stupid breakdown in Daily Fail, on the morning of MM’s wedding, he truly expected her to ANSWER THE PHONE and RESPON TO HIS TEXTS, on her wedding day. He could keep it together to do all this, but not show up for her wedding day, not come after to visit her afterwards, and continue to allow his other…

Jesus Christ, this fucking father. It’s like he lies awake at night planning what more he can do to fuck over his own daughter. What the hell happened to him anyway? Apparently he used to be a decent father—didn’t he custom-make a mixed-race-looking Barbie for Meghan when she was a child? How did he turn into this…

Don’t know if you could make that the whole plot, Markle is not smart enough to be a full-fledged Bond villain on his own. But it'd make a great intro sequence.

Her Dad has (since before the wedding even) shown himself to be a slimy piece of work. I feel for Megan. 

Oh man. Meghan’s father is making my NPD father look.. not as terrible.

Gothamist linked to this the other day and I find it fascinating (but sadly, not surprising): https://www.buzzfeednews.com/article/ellievhall/meghan-markle-kate-middleton-double-standards-royal

We’re still calling it Megxit despite that being incredibly sexist?

I don’t know why Danny’s work as NewPru leaves me so cold, but it does. I find myself routinely reading the letters then reading the first two sentences of the advice before skipping to the next letter—I know what Prudie’s going to say, and it’s probably going to be banal. It’s odd and probably horrible to say, but I…

I hope so too. I read a story in the NY times about the British press and one of the asshole photographers actually said that Harry should get over his mom’s death since its been 25 years.

Rande Gerber is sick/Of Kaia’s fascination with Pete Davidson’s dick/Cindy Crawford’s ashamed/While Kaia’s in pain/From her parents thinking her man is a prick.

Perfect distinction; Emily Yoffe got the. craziest. letters, and also gave the harshest answers. Danny seems to be so blase about the whole thing! Also, absolutely agree with voyeurism, that’s definitely part of the letters’ subconscious appeal for me. Bringing our comments full circle, fictional modern royal Dear…

I suppose I read them because there’s a certain grotesque voyeurism in looking in on other people’s problems. That said, I feel like Emily Yoffe got way weirder letters as Prudie. Danny Lavery seems to get/pick lamer letters, and frequently I find his advice to be utterly confounding. When he gets it wrong, he gets it…

well said, and LOL yes another person who obsessively reads dear prudence columns. what is it about them?? what does it say about a personality who wants to read them all?

Totally. Although sometimes my husband sends me screen shots of texts with his mom where she wants to change plans and he replies “I don’t know about that. I guess I’ll have to check with Agree.” And I’m like what do you mean, you have to check with me. You know you don’t want to do that and you’re making me seem like…

If Meghan had gone, she would have been that uppity black woman tearing apart and trying to change the (institution)family. If she had called she would have been called interfering and controlling. By not going now she’s somehow dissed the Queen. FFS, can we just leave the woman alone?

Honestly, it’s a good move on Meghan and Harry’s part not to have Meghan be there (none of the spouses were there, apparently). If I’ve learned anything from reading a million Dear Prudence and Dear Abby columns, in-law problems are best dealt with by the direct relative, not the son-in-law or daughter-in-law. Harry…

Just thinking of my in-laws’ family meetings that I choose not to attend, I can’t imagine it scaled up to the royals.

Who can blame her, this whole thing has been a nightmare to watch from afar, I can’t begin to imagine how hard it is to live through.
