Catherine and William versus Meghan and Harry

MM and her husband are castigated, not for doing things differently, but for turning their backs on the role prescribed by the family and country which provides their income, and which they think will continue to facilitate their lavish lifestyle with nothing in return.

MM is most definitely not an independent woman; she looks for others to pay the bills.

I think that is why so many of us truly independent women are so furious.

Given the history of marriages in the RF it isn't just H&M who won't last. Apart from E&P there haven't been many long lasting ones. Sophie and Edward is the only one of that generation.
I think it's interesting to consider the role of women. Kate married and totally committed herself to the RF. Very much the dutiful wife. MM tried but didn't like it and wants to do things differently be a bit independent, for which she must be castigated.

I have no idea what will happen , the monarchy will continue, but the marriage of H & M ? It will continue if he doesn’t get
fed up of being her manager andPR spokesperson.

I foresee they will have another baby, and a grand life and the RF will go doen the pan. Oh and bitter old bats will still be here moaning.

I'm inclined to agree lyndiloo and the sooner the better so Harry can move on.

I foresee that Harry and Meghan will be divorced within the next two years. (Such a shame.) But the lifestyle that they are envisioning for themselves just won't work.

Seems to me there is always a Royal wedding/birth/scandal etc to take our attention away from the government and what they are doing (or not doing). Cynical ... Moi?!

To be honest, if you don’t like it, don’t read it! Read a thread on knitting, or whatever else you’re interested in.

Yes easybee, I think a lot of people would like to do that.

The griping and moaning that this subject continues to be discussed goes on and on and on........

I’m not usually interested in RF but the Megan and Harry show is just like a soap.

The bitchfest continues, on and on......

What a shocking title to this thread.

Does flaunting oneself guarantee a Prince ? , that’s where I went wrong, wearing an Akela skirt and jumper wasn’t flaunting was it ?

Kate is no angel....she changed Universities and flaunted herself to capture a Prince. She played her cards right

Not true that she changed universities - where on earth did you get that from?
.

The one thing (ok, not the only thing) that keeps getting me narked is this bloody Daily Mail thing (and used by some posters) of referring to her as "Kate Middleton" !

For heavens sake, how long ago did she and William get married? She is not Kate Middleton

Similarly, Diana was not Princess Diana.

(Grumpy old bag tonight)

I think Meghan's intentions were obvious from the start. No wonder William wasn't keen! She has what she wanted anyway, a title, world wide recognition and a never ending source of income because of her son. She is now free to follow her own agenda and push brand Meghan as much as she desires.

Thought so GrannyLaine thank you

@Anniebach, she didn't. She apparently changed plans on leaving school, took a gap year and applied to St Andrews instead of Edinburgh which was her 1st choice on UCAS

crazyH which University did Kate attend before St.Andrews?

All I want to say is that Catherine is very dignified and never seems to let herself or the royal family down.

The people who are fuelling this are those who seem greedy for gossip about the royal family as the ultimate soap opera.

How do you know what Meghan wanted?

Until all this blew up, I had taken no interest at all in Harry and Meghan. I didn't even watch their wedding.

However, it all seems so obvious that this has been created by the media. The source of allegedly knowing what Meghan wanted seems to be her own family. Frankly, they don't seem like a very pleasant bunch and I'm not in the slightest surprised that she doesn't want anything to do with them.

Maybe Kate is no angel crazyH, and maybe she was determined to get William, but all respect to her, she has at least followed through on the demands of the role which became hers as a result. Not like Meghan, who wanted the royal title, but doesn’t seem prepared to undertake the responsibility that it entails.

What a nasty thread I won’t take part but I m not impressed at all with either the title or some of the posts
Artdeco are you really that innocent that you didn’t think this would cause ill feeling You wouldn’t say who is best my eldest daughter or my youngest so why would you start a thread about someone else’s children
Nasty
