Monday - will you watch....and why?

M0nica Yep.

I think they’ve opened up a very large can of worms by doing this interview. It wouldn’t surprise me if Meghan’s estranged family are the next to be interviewed to tell their side of the story.

I don’t doubt she has mental issues. She must have to behave the way she does.

I didn’t see it Grannynannywanny but apparently Thomas Markle was interviewed by one of the morning programmes either yesterday or the day before.

Monica Absolutely.

I agree Monica , good post.

I saw the brief clip of her father on the news maddyone. I was thinking more of her outspoken sister Samantha and her family. She appeared a few times on ITV around the time of the wedding and appeared to harbour bitter resentment and was eager to tell her side of the story.

Her sister must have been hurt by the treatment of their father

This would be the same sister who is estranged from her own 3 children would it? Isn't it a bit odd for someone with her history to criticise a different family split.

One person I have great respect for is Meghan's mother and her family. She's resisted all temptation to get involved. With a mother like that M must have some very real, deep seated values.

GNW. Her sister has just published a book. I would recommend the review of it in The Spectator a couple of weeks ago.

Yes we haven’t had a peep from Doria - I wonder which of her parents Meghan takes after......oh wait?‍♀️

The thing is if we can't "know" Meghan's imperatives and motives, we can't know her sister's either. The sister's "truth" is as valid as anyone else's surely?

If when hearing that "truth" some of us make negative judgments about Samantha/Meghan/other people in similar situations, then it's no different to anyone making negative judgments and assumptions about anyone else. Just people judging people judging people.

It's not clean, whoever it comes from and whoever it's directed at.

Doria has three siblings, not one invited to the wedding

Her half brther sounds pleasant as well

Good posts & I agree.

Several posters rightly praising Doria for her silence.
Can we afford the same praise to the Middletons who knew Harry from long go, had him at their home, took him on holidays etc? He obviously enjoyed their company as a family. Then later his wife goes on tv to pretty much trash their daughter. Harry has a good memory for other things, but a short memory where their kindness to him is concerned. If Kate were my daughter I would be none too pleased and might find it hard to keep my mouth shut.

I did see the interview with Megan's dad. He seemed a very nice genuine man. It was clear he was telling the truth. Said he loved his daughter. Also said Megan is estranged from all her father's side of the family and all her mother's, aside from her mum! That would be why the only member of her entire family at the wedding was her mum!

Seems that Meghan doesn't 'do' families. How long till she falls out with Harry?

I feel sorry for Thomas, he looked quite frail and unsure what to say at times, in that recent interview. He made mistakes, and has apologised, but then so did she and Harry.

I doubt she will ever see him again, or let him see his grandchildren. Makes you wonder if she will ever regret it, after he's gone. Also Archie when he grows up, will read all that's happened.

Oh trisher thanks for the laugh "With a mother like that M must have some very real, very deep seated values". Yeah, so deep seated we haven't seen them yet.

Thomas Markle said he will give another interview in 30 days if he hasn’t heard from his daughter.

Her treatment of her elderly sick father tells us much of the character of the woman.

I'm watching it now.Wasn't going to be thought how can I have a opinion on it if I don't . But oh my goodness the bit about Kate making her cry was far worse than I expected.It made me deeply uncomfortable somehow.She really has it in for her.If Kate really did that,but apologised and sent flowers when she was either heavily pregnant with Loius or had just had him then where is the true forgiveness from MM ?

I'm glad you saw it like that Washerwoman. I saw jealousy written all over it and Oprah seemed to enjoy asking all about the incident.

Presume she mentioned it as it was reported as being the other way round.

Meg really was gunning for Kate, jealousy is nasty and can be dangerous.
