And in any case apart from the fact there’s been admissions of racism from the Markles themselves - Doria has no need to chat about the racism her daughter faces from sections of the media & public, it’s already out there in the open. For goodness sake even Prince Harry noticed it.

The part in bold is the watered down version to say that he "noticed" it. If there was any example of a Prince on a white horse storming in to rescue his damsel in distress, it was Harry at the time he put out that statement from Kensington Palace. He meant *business*.

No, Doria does not need to "get Meghan's true story out there." Nor does she need to speak about her ex-husband's children from his first marriage. She should just keep on as she's been doing, she has illustrated how much more class she has than those two. Nor do I think she wants attention from any press.

Posts discussing UK and US laws have beed deleted. I've also deleted a bunch of back and forth bickering between members. Please stop it.

Let's move on from the Oprah discussion, please.

Seeing that picture of Jr with the royal weddings book, I truly feel bad for Meghan. She actually had to live with these mean, passive aggressive, aggressive, manipulative bullies at some point in her life. He has absolutely no reason to arrange pap shots like this , except to try to send some sort of message.

As I said previously, I don't feel bad for Meghan. She would have known what type of people these are and cut them out of her life long before she met Harry. And no matter how they choose to manipulate the media, it is not having the desired effect as they are being ignored by both Meghan and the BRF. They are not part of the wedding and will not be part of her life.

They have truly burnt their bridges!!!!!

[Madame Verseau]

Harry and Meghan going to be out of pocket until the wedding so the tabloids need to fill column space somehow.

I was watching CNN this morning and it advertised it will run a special report: Harry and Meghan: A Royal Match on Sat, May 14, 8pm EST. CNN is not known for fluff reporting. The issue of race will most likely be reported as well as some reference to the family dynamic. (This needs to be in the media section I think).

Posts ignoring the Mod note earlier today have been deleted. The speculative nature concerning the idea that Ms Ragland is arranging to give a television interview is off-topic for now.

I find it peculiar that the UK media wants to portray these people as victims when they are clearly not just cashing in, but they are bullying Meghan. Their failure to grow up and thrive is not Meghan's fault. In this time of Me Too and Times up why is the UK media giving this domestic abuser the platform to verbally abuse his sister?

[Madame Verseau]

@AloeVera - DM knows its audience. It gets 5000+ comments from what they print.

Interesting commentary about Meghan's half siblings.

Well we all know the reason why they are being portrayed as victims and not the actual victim.I mean DF wrote an article about how Stormzy should shut up and be grateful

Saturday is May 12th, not May 14th - that would be Monday. Is the special running on Saturday or on May 14th?

[Madame Verseau]

@sunnystar - the TV special is on Saturday, and you're right, Saturday is May 12. My mistake.

[CTchic]

Yvonne (I prefer to call her by her birth name) engages with some of the worst trolls on Twitter who have spread the craziest conspiracy theories and are downright racist towards Meghan. She retweets a lot of their mess. But she loves Meghan, right? Bitter and resentful woman.

[Madame Verseau]

InIt looks like this royal reporter got his marching orders for no invites for the half sibs:

In short Meghan is not obligated to invite people she is not close, and she invites who she wants. I think the straight press is going to go after the half sibs, using royal reporters to paint them as classless rubes who used the media to try to crash the royal wedding - and failed.

One of the universal laws I believe in is that whatever you put out into the world will come back at you threefold. Some call it karma. It stands to reason that karma would have a big lunch on these two clowns. We see it often enough that someone will ride high being in the media only to get torn apart when the tide turns.

One reaps what one sows.

Or sow the wind and reap the whirlwind! Actually, I liked the mental visual of Alison Mau's article:

And Samantha and Thomas Jnr can stew gently in their vile juices as they watch the spectacle on the telly, just like the rest of us.

If that's the case Tom Jr and Samantha are due for a truckload.

[Madame Verseau]

The US legitimate press is starting to report on Meghan's family:

https://abcnews.go.com/GMA/Culture/m...ry?id=54907006

Even in this short account the half sibs don't look good.

When the rest of the straight media start reporting on the Markles Sam and Jr are going to rue the day, for their tabloid hit pieces and Twitter screeds are on the record so they can't cry libel. They won't go to a respected journalist because their past statements and actions will be challenged in that interview setting.

So Thomas Snr was spotted again. This time looking at their engagement pictures in an Internet cafe. I feel like some of these are very staged and stunts. Just seems too convenient to me.

The Sun seems to always get these exclusives too.
