Read the latest in sad state of affairs between Meghan and her father today with sadness.
Her letter seemed so reasonable and made good points, her father has behaved in such an abominable way towards his daughter. Rather than pulling his head in after the stupid staged shots he was paid for, apologised and kept quiet till it all blew over he's dug his heels in and embarrassed her time and time again.
I'm not surprised her friends came out in support, even if she did direct it. Has the press no memory of how poor Diana and Fergie were berated and bullied? The idiot rags like the Daily Mail and the Sun are really going for it to make their money. I feel so sorry for her and hope it doesn't affect her pregnancy with all the stress.
I don't understand why the public seem to want her to reconcile with him. He obviously can't be trusted and she's wise to stay well clear, that side of the family is unhinged. Half brother with a DUI and domestic abuse, the other sister seems disturbed, her own daughter cut her off for goodness sakes and by the looks of it for good reason.
Harry was always my favourite, he's a bit older than my two children, but I always felt for him after Diana died. He was such a little mite behind the coffin.
Unpleasant. I think pregnant women should be off limits for all this unpleasant criticism and backstairs tittle-tattle so avidly relayed by certain posters on here. Most people on here have undergone pregnancy and childbirth, and many have daughters in the same position.
I have not been aware of this story other than on here. Did D of S release her letter or has a private letter been released by the recipient & as,a,result her pals have rallied to support? The Royal PR machine usually tries to minimise fall- out. Cannot be a good time for her, as a women approaching the end of her first pregnancy, to have added worry. She won't be the first or last to have family stress to cope with.
Well I’ll leave such speculation to ‘them as reads’ these dubious publications because to be honest I knew nothing at all about this subject until I read this thread on GN.
If HRH Meghan thinks she can recruit the British tabloid press to be her ally, she needs her thinking examined. She may as well try to ride a scorpion.
Big difference in a tv interview such as paying tribute to a family member as was done last year for the 70th birthday of Charles or a tribute to the queen to Diana’s panorama performance or her book . They all give tv interviews when they get engaged even Anne did.
find it confusing why any member of the public, who does not know someone personally, feels they can pontificate on the personal relationships of that person. You don't know!!
It always amazes me how people believe the press - astonishes me in fact. We only "know" these people through the eyes of some miserable hack reporter - and yet we feel we "know" Diana and Fergie and every other dubious celebrity and why they did what they did etc. Of course we don't.
Just stop buying the papers, that's the only answer.
It is so hard to be dignified and to turn the other cheek when one is being lambasted no matter who you are and what position you hold in society - lowly or high - but this is what she must do to establish and maintain some integrity, Someone needs to get this through to both of them. Maybe Camilla could step in here???
I seem to recall that Kate was lambasted in the press for a while - anyone remember the "waity Katy" nickname?, she was also criticised for not having a job, etc. etc. etc. Now the press have moved on to Meghan and Kate is the flavour of the month. I doubt if any GNs know either of these women personally - all anyone knows is what is printed in the newspapers and I like to think GNs are intelligent enough to take everything printed with a pinch of salt!
