Is it okay to put family first? (Response to royal family stuff)

[TLSnell1981]

Actually the little mermaid getting her voice back and the prince is the prettiest up version by Disney in the original the prince doesn't realise it was Ariel who rescued him and she dies to dissolve into sea foam. As for Harry and her they both need to have all titles removed and his place in the line of succession removed.

The RF needs to take a page from Harry and Megs. They need to be erased. Not even a sorry side note. What they have done is unforgivable. They will NEVER change and can't be trusted. This was all petty revenge and a money grab. Harry who?

There seems to be a common theme here with H&M kicking all family members on either side to the curb. M’s mom better keep an eye out. Ditto with their “friends“ and business associates.

They need her. She is useful...for now.

I think we're about due soon for a comment on comedy gold.

 

[Suger Mag]

Well it sounds as if you’ve already made up your mind and have no desire to learn the truth. So be it.

truth... LOL

NONE of us know the truth...all this thread is a bunch of onlookers arguing about whose source of gossip is superior. (still fun as all heck though LOL)

At least I recognize that I know little about their lives. The way some of y'all talk it is like you think you actually are palace insiders.

Maybe QE2 will declare 2021 as an annum horriblus (?) like she did in 1992

ok, I got the quote wrong.

annus horribilis

Happy to oblige.

And they thought 2020 was bad. The 2021 "hold my beer"..quite appropriate.

I guess my favorite comment of the day has to be Harry who?

Sadly, H&M will be the flavor of the month or the year, but eventually may fade. The damage to relationships likely permanent.

And his viciously malicious side kick. Stole that one from another board.

Some know more than others. People have been paying attention to this for a long time. And people from the UK live it.

Look, I have no interest in arguing with you about it. I talked more about Thomas Markle earlier in the thread. (Around pages 48-50.)

He was a good dad to Meghan. She had a relatively happy childhood. (Do any of us have a perfect childhood?)

He was always there for her and took care of her. (Even when her Mom was incarcerated.) Paid for her college. Supported her in everything she did. They lived happily together.

He made the mistake of being naive and taken advantage of by some unscrupulous “reporters”, and he lied about it to Meghan. His bad. The stress it caused nearly cost him his life when he had a heart attack just before Meghan’s wedding.

He still acts childishly sometimes because he’s been hurt. He also speaks out in order to set the record straight. (Who wouldn’t in the same situation?)

But he’s owned up to his mistakes and asked for forgiveness. He wants to see Meghan, meet his son in law, and meet his grandson.

Meghan claims to be a compassionate person. Doesn’t charity begin at home?

 

[TLSnell1981]

This should make the decision for the RF to permanently distance themselves from H&M much easier. H&M have outed themselves for what they truly are...TOXIC! The RF should ignore them and move on.

I greatly admire & respect Queen Elizabeth. She’s my favorite royal.

I hate that Harry is allowing these things to be said against his family, especially his grandmother, while his 99-year-old grandfather is in the hospital.

I find Meghan to be very petty, hypocritical, & narcissistIc. I also think it’s laughable that anyone would believe her claim that she knew nothing about the royal family before marrying Harry.

What I do believe is that she didn’t fully understand the hierarchy of the royal family &, once she realized that she & Harry & their children weren’t going to be on quite the same level as William & Kate & their children, she was upset... she didn’t like being placed on a lower level than Kate - both literally like the different balcony positions or seatings in church buildings & figuratively - which is, to a point, understandable, but, then a reasonable, gracious person would have realized that’s the way things are in a monarchy, learned to adjust accordingly, & then moved on creating a life & a position for herself & her children within the family.

But she didn’t. She wanted all the benefits & “good press” that came from being married to Harry but none of the “hard stuff” (obligations, traditions, censure, public scrutiny...) that also goes along w/ the monarchy.

Her attitude came across in little things - like wearing outfits that were as close to bare-shouldered as she could get w/o actually going over the line knowing that the protocol for certain events was for shoulders to be covered - and in larger things as well. She came into the family wanting to rebel & had visions of being the ”People’s Princess” 2.0. And, when it didn’t happen, she became petty & vindictive & started inventing slights against her.

And her inner jealousy & bitterness colored a lot of her perceptions in how she felt people (the royal family, press, the public, etc.) were treating her & came out in how she treated her staff & how she came to the view the royal family, the press, & the public. So now she’s decided to play the “victim“ & has pulled Harry along w/ her.

And, regardless, she’s an adult woman, years older than Diana was when she married Charles. She should have a bit more wisdom & maturity & coping-skills. Every marriage requires some adjustment & compromise. A marriage into the royal family would require even more adjustment & compromise w/ additional time for learning about her new role & the royal protocols... how she didn’t understand or wasn’t aware of that is just beyond me & just shows how weak-minded she is.

I think everyone knows at least one person w/ Meghan‘s kind of personality, & it can be, at the least, exhausting, &, at its worst, toxic.

I couldn’t even watch the interview because I knew it’d make me mad.

I hope the royal family, especially Queen Elizabeth & Prince Philip, see her for what she is & just ignore her w/o letting her negatively influence the monarchy, but I also hope that, eventually, they are able to reconcile w/ Harry.

Thank for repeating the info on Thomas Markle. You only get to have one biological father. I believe he helped her get where she did in Hollywood by paying for her education and other things he did for her career wise.

I am sure this recent interview that he just gave.... will go a long way to showing how he has changed, I mean not like he ran out immedietly to sell his story ... again


He has shown, and continues to show, a disregard for their wishes.

Maybe he was a good dad once, right now he is not showing himself to be very trustworthy

Agree with your reason for not watching it. And I think the interview also caused some viewers to become quite intoxicated, possibly some on this thread!

Although likely helped to create the incredibly manipulative, social climbing and entitled woman we see today. Although articles about Doria Ragland say much the same about her. The apple didn't fall far from the tree.

Absolutely. He was an Emmy-Award winning lighting director for shows like Married with Children and General Hospital. Meghan has talked publicly about her time on the Married With Children set, where she hung out daily after school. It no doubt was a big influence in her future career choices.

Lordy my 85 year old neighbor stopped my husband driving down the road and asked if he saw "the interview". She was incredulous over H&M's behavior. Said she used to like and have sympathy for Harry but no more,

Eh. You can’t blame him at this point. He’s pissed off and he’s got nothing left to lose.

Honestly, I don’t think it’s his nature to be difficult. But he feels he has little choice.

People do have pride.
