Meghan's father and photographer in photo scam

What strikes me about this wedding is the contrast of approaches by William and Harry.

William really got to know the Middletons before his wedding.
He visited them a lot and stayed with them I believe. This gave him a chance to see the background Kate came from, which of course is part and parcel of who we are.

Contrast that with Harry. What does he really know about Meghan? He has only met her mother (she of the Q and A session arranged with Oprah for sometime after the wedding). We know he hasn't met the father, or as far as I am aware, any other members of her family. Her half siblings haven't a good word to say about her, but they could well be jealous of her success of course.

Yes of course we can see that Harry is besotted with Meghan, but considering a lot of the romance was conducted long distance, just how much does he really know about the background of the woman he is bringing into the Royal family?

Now the father will presumably go back to his life in Mexico, and if Donald builds that wall, the man may never be seen again

Thats still work! A lot of scientists are paid by sponsors.

Zara is a British equestrian, she does get sponsorship but that’s it.

the press always try to spin a rags to riches story outta a royal wedding. They would love Markle to have a trash background but she doesnt. Just like how Kate was never an ordinary student and Diana was no lowely nanny

I thought Ann's daughter was a sports pro? its fancy posh work but still work.

I really cant get a handle on any of the smear campaigns on MrM, he hasnt done anything awful.

Whereas the middletons use of data collected sometimes illegally and definitely immorily by Bounty for their party supply company...and lack of help for bereaved parents who didnt want to keep recieving kids party supply catelogues every year, might better qualify as "murky"

But Harry’s a big privileged man with an army of flunkies to take care of him - Mr M isn’t so you really can’t compare the two at all - that’s just ridiculous.

I think it’s really shitty to call him Murky Markle. So do I Maryeliza. It's almost as bad as saying "Harry is a stupid self obsessed fuckwit who hasn’t got the sense he was born with (not that that was much)" Now.... who was it that said that I wonder?

Tbf howevet, I certainly wouldn’t accept any member of the RF with aplomb or anything else for that matter - I’m very particular about the company I keep and I have standards to live upto and my reputation to protect ???

Megan is a decendant of Jane Seymour so not a working class family.

Her 12th great grandmother was a second cousin to Jane Seymour

What working class Americans are the RF accepting with aplomb?

And if you want murky here’s the utter swamp inhabited by air mikes Andy

What has Harry been busy doing? He holidayed in America, made several greet the public appearance with Megan

I look forward to seeing the Windsors rise above the challenge to accept real working class Americans. I bet they do so with aplomb. (What is 'aplomb' actually ? I have never in my life used that word before)

Ann’s daughter has never worked has she ?

And if anyone deserves to be called murky, several prominent members of the RF are way ahead in the queue and with no excuse at all

I think it’s really shitty to call him Murky Markle - really shitty and unnecessary. And it was apparently a lottery win that paid for MM’s private education

All the time M&H have been together and Mr M has never stepped out of line in public and yet some of you just seem to want to bad mouth him. He’s apparently living a pretty hard up life in a run down Mexican border town. He was apparently a tv lighting director but hardly part of the Hollywood glitterati. In recent weeks he’s been harassed by the paps and clearly eventually gave in but have you really looked at the photos - hardly the products of any master minds - pathetic in the true sense of the word as are the photos of him coming out of a drug store - how anyone can’t have sympathy for him is beyond me. All that against the might, privilege, wealth, connections, experience and resources of the RF. They had choices - they chose an extravagant wedding and didn’t think how to handle the family - well they are reaping what they’ve sown. As for the apologist above who said H was too busy to meet Mr M - well words fail me

So many things about Murky Markle don't add up to me.

He had a good job and could afford to have Meghan privately educated, then he went bankrupt and is now living in a really seedy town in Mexico which is rife with down and outs, murderers and rival gangs dealing drugs.

I would LOVE to know what the Royals think of him! No wonder Harry hasn't met him.

Yes I agree, he sounds like an attention seeker, despite all the reports of him wanting to keep himself to himself.

I do hope Prince Charles walks her up the aisle which would be a lovely gesture of support. Her poor mother will cut a lonely and forlorn figure, given she's the only family member there.

We know what they want us to know, Grandma70s and they're not holding back.

Well said Grandma70s!

We don’t know what he is. Extraordinary how many people seem to know these people’s thoughts, motivations and character.

I think you may well be right Blinko and merlot. No one who'd done the kind of work he did in the US would have posed unwittingly for those paparazzi photographs.
The dreadful half sister announced today she'd been in a car accident in which she was injured, as a result of being chased by paparazzi.
Would any of us be surprised to see one of the ludicrous American personal injury claims, blaming the RF for all manner of stuff.
I feel for Meghan, who needs this kind of nonsense days before their wedding.

How about an attention seeking recluse?

Anyone else think this man's an attention seeker? Or a recluse....
