The more I've seen of them since they left I find it easer to believe that (whatever Meghan has convinced herself) her motives were not just to do "her own kind" of charity work, but to also make her own money.
AFAI can remember, that was always what you thought about her. I was away for some time and coming back to this thread, it is still the same people writing the same things. Be they negative or positive. Isn't that boring?
Meghan and Harry's adventures are so fascinating for so many people, I think, if I see the coverage in the British media. But here are always only the same people talking. Why don't we all give newcomers the chance to say their piece of opinion, too by not posting so much?
I will do that now but before I leave this thread again, I just want to point out a quote from an opinion piece by the Observer and The Guardian's commentator Barbara Ellen:
Under the headline of :
I'm not blind to Meghan Markle's flaws, but she's been treated abominably
she writes: "
Everything else aside, it seems to me that sectors of the press had a choice to behave absolutely impeccably on the racial front and they (not Meghan) chose not to. One particular news item, relating to her childhood, was, in my opinion, coded racism at its worst, probably not something that would even be attempted in these post-George Floyd times. It was so sly and horrible that it made me cry.
This is what matters to me. It’s why I don’t care if the Sussexes are occasionally naive, compromised or entitled or if they end up flogging royal wedding tea towels on Sussex Royal. What matters is that Meghan hasn’t “played the victim”, she
is a victim, or, more accurately, a survivor. Whatever some people say, at certain points, the racism was real. And, if that had been me and my mixed-race baby, I’d have wanted to leave the country too."
You all here talk about Meghan as if she wasn't a victim of British media racism or that she simply had to get over it and when she couldn't, you claim she was only in it for the money. Maybe she was or she wasn't. You don't know and no book will be able to give proof to that. But not to see that Meghan was racially profiled by the media and some courtiers? There is no need for further discussions, IMHO.
