Ok fine...racism.

How about this - someone tell me why I am supposed to like her? She just got paid $100 million to rat out on the private inner workings of Harry's family - is that honorable or am I missing something? She willingly married into this situation, cry me a river.
Ha ha lol ha ha.

I feel more sorry for Harry than anything. The guy got uprooted from his family, his friend circle, his home country, and his wife has him under her thumb.

no, they have pretty much gone away, besides one documentary this year and approximately 10000 articles by the daily mail designed to keep them in your crosshairs.

It's also the sexist assumption that she corrupted Harry and convinced him to leave the royal family. Like he's some poor innocent soul with no agency under her demands. Ironically he had no agency when he was living as a royal.

Here's the elephant in the room: Harry doesn't look anything like his brother, his uncles, his grandfather, or Charles, because Charles isn't his real father, which is something that Harry's always known. He's probably always felt like an outsider in the inner circle, which is why he has more in common with his wife -- another outsider -- than with his 'official' family.

LOL right? Like dude is a grown ass man and picked his wife over his toxic ass family. Shouldn't that normally be cheered?

Also another point is that she's good cannon fodder to deflect from other Royal Family issues. Case in point, Prince Andrew is a rapist, the family's covered it up for decades, there's an active case against him. It's better to throw fire at Harry and Meghan than acknowledge the pink raping elephant in the room for the public.

I think she is annoying AF. She is also arrogant AF. She thinks she is Margot Robbie-meets-lady Di-meets Rosa Parks. She totally knew what she was marrying into too and did it for the fame anyway.

HOWEVER, the royal family and the Brit tabloids still met her with a shitload of racism, animosity and they wished she would end divorcing Harry or something. They treated her like shit.

both things are true and can coexist

It's sad how many comments about her can be boiled down to the tired racist tropes of "uppity" or "doesn't know her place".

I for one welcome anything or anyone that is a threat to hereditary privilege.

The crazy part is, when I watched Suits I thought Meghan Markle was fully Caucasian. I thought it was in terrible taste that they made her dad black as a plot element, but then I learned she was half-black in real life too lol.


I thought the exact same. I was really surprised that she is half black. She doesn't look it at all.

Still haven't heard a compelling reason on this thread of what I should like her. Everything I've seen about her (in the biased media, of course) makes her look like a spoiled obnoxious brat who somehow drives all of her family away from her, even her own. She seems like a standard issue gold digger to me, and she is making complete bank right now over her position and doesn't really do anything to earn it and certainly doesn't "work" (two things that I would assume this board would hate). Other than "she's hot" what should I be looking out for to admire about her?

So you know all of the info you're getting about her is biased yet you still use that to justify why you dislike her anyways? Seems like you got issues bud.

Im not really sure what your angle is here. No one is saying you have to like her.

And Im not really sure where your getting this shes making bank thing either.

But sure, continue to make mountains out of molehills

isn't it because she is a huge brat, obviously hates the royal traditions in a family that she knowingly married into, seems to have Harry by the balls in a really sad way (although he has a lot to blame here too), and is racing to tell private royal family stuff to the media for big bucks?

I don't buy the racism angle - I think she was pretty popular when she married Harry. She just seems to suck.

congrats on the dumbest take ever

The Brits that hate the royals are a small vocal minority. When the queen died, it was decreed that all businesses shutdown for a period of time to pay their respects. You would be arrested if you remained open.

No, theyre a significant portion of the population, as are those that love them. However, the biggest faction is those that just dont give a fuck, which the royalists always try to claim as their own.

Are you serious here? She and Harry are getting paid $100 million from Netflix for their docuseries stuff and a few other projects. That is, in all fairness, "making bank" IMO.

She got more money than everyone on this board combined, for doing less work than she would as a top royal (who often have fairly busy schedules with appearances, etc)

https://nypost.com/2022/12/08/how-much-did-netflix-pay-prince-harry-meghan-markle-for-documentary/
Theyre getting the royal treatment.
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle signed an estimated $100 million deal with Netflix for their bombshell docuseries Harry and Meghan, according to reports by Forbes.

I acknowledge that I am not a fan of Meghan, as shown by my consistent posts in this thread. I'm surprised so many people here are fans of such a person, she is extremely privileged (probably more than most people on the planet), wealthy for not really doing much (marrying?), and by many accounts is difficult to deal with (estranged from her own family, many accounts of Meghan berating royal staff members, etc). Literally the stuff that most people here hate - extremely wealthy, did almost nothing for her wealth other than marriage, bully to the people "under" her, etc. She comes off in the media as worse than most of the royal family themselves.

She sounds terrible IMHO
