Not to add fuel to the fire, but it’s also sad reading some of the comments throwing around Harry’s paternity and positing that he’s not even Charles’s son so who cares if his old man never sees him again? Which of course brings out the Diana bashers, with the inevitable conclusion that it’s all Meghan’s fault.

If we lived in the 14th century and I was a man, not at all. But alas, you’re correct. When Andrew’s the only eligible bachelor in the land you know things done got fucked up.

Very true. I guess there’s a part of me that really wants to believe after his own gruesome ordeal Charles would have an abundance of sympathy for his son and daughter-in-law, whose treatment by the press/British people is eerily reminiscent of both Diana and Camilla. (The fascination, the hatred!) I would think if

Ok, let me remove my fascinator of condescension then—

So it’s up to her to “sell” the truth to people like you, rather than simply tell her side of the story? Does her naivete excuse the Palace’s treatment of her, along with the press—hell, the whole of Britain it seems? Should any woman who finds herself in a threatening or abusive situation, or even a situation that

It’s funny because I actually believe the rumors that William cheated on Kate a few years back, and when he approached Harry with his concerns about marrying Meghan so soon Harry was like “Um, are you REALLY the person to be preaching to me about marriage?” and that sealed the deal with their rift.

Probably because it will be televised and she wants to look good. I mean, I’d be barefoot and high AF if it were my sprawling Montecito estate, but that’s also why I’m not Royal material. (Or I’m PERFECT Royal material...*strokes chin*)

I honestly think that’s how the cult BRF works: strip you of your past life (unless it can be used against you, ahem) and any individual effects, including those pertaining to your identity and personal freedom (passport, credit cards, etc), make it all but impossible to see friends and family on even a semi-regular

Neither Harry nor Meghan expressed any desire to go hide under a rock and never be seen again—or, as you say, “fade into obscurity.” They’ve both been pretty articulate about their wish to be visible philanthropists and media content producers. No hypocrisies, no conspiracies. As of 2020 they’re receiving zero money

I got the impression they didn’t care about titles for themselves, but Archie being refused any titles meant he would receive zero security from the Palace. I’m not a parent, but I’d raise hell too if my mixed-race Royal child whose parents were already tabloid targets and was likened to a chimp in the press following

i am going to watch though. lol. i was not going to, but i am curious to hear her point of view. 

She’s not “whining” she’s finally telling her side of the story after years of being told to shut up and take it. Have you ever been the subject of unfair scrutiny, harmful gossip, or out-and-out lies? Were you told to be quiet and “never explain, never complain?”even as the situation grew worse, to the point where

If she focuses on the racism thrown at her by the press then it’s hard to really stick that on the palace as to do so would also require you to at least somewhat support the idea the crown has the right to censure the press...

I wonder why Meaghan didn’t go to her doctor for mental health support and referral. 

Exactly. Princess Michael of Kent is pretty much hated by everyone inside the palace, so I doubt Harry would give a shit about her “concerns.” Same with Phillip. I imagine the whole family wrote him off as that crazy racist uncle at Thanksgiving years ago. He matters—but he also doesn’t.

And the fact that neither of them named the names behind some of the more horrible accounts—such as Archie’s skin color concern—means they’re either REALLY forgiving and classier than the Palace when it comes to spilling the tea, or they’re still terrified of the potential repercussions.

Oh, the Daily Fail loves comparing the Sussexes to Wallis & Edward, even though the two stories and couples couldn’t be more different. For one thing, Wallis and Edward were straight-up Nazis, Wallis actually wanted to remain Edward’s mistress so he could stay on the throne, and yeah. It’s just a lazy, deliberately

Have you seen pics of Kate in recent years? She’s already got the Windsor jowls from doing the smile-set-in-stone poker scowl. 

YEP. Seriously, take it as a compliment when someone calls you difficult or the dreaded “B” word. 

Calling out white supremacy (such as your viewpoints and the actions of the British Empire) is not the same thing as disrespecting one’s culture. Also, if your culture is rank with bigotry and class-based abuse, maybe it deserves to be shit on before getting an overhaul?
