Yes. She reminded people that she's "better" than other celebrities, because she's Meghan, Duchess of Sussex and then bum, here's something I'm giving to my dear, dear friend that you can buy (probably for an exorbitant amount of money.Well thought out?
Apparently she asked to be included again, like the 19th Summit in August.

It seems that in general the American audience love her. Those more invested in the (British) monarchy generally are less likely to be happy that someone is using 'their historic titles' to make a name and money for themselves.

Ouch, that's... sad.
I was reminded today that I miss Meghan's public speaking ability, though in difference to feminism or girl education you can feel her heart is not in it, she sounded subdued and stilted. But that doesn't change the fact that the speech was very well written and nice. Though I did have a laugh around the "a meal is like a hug" because WTH? ?
She said “ a meal is like a hug”??? Lol Reminds me of some other overly poetic language Harry used recently. I really don’t go for overly saccharine, flowery language personally. It’s distracting. And eye- roll worthy.
I’d say in general most Americans don’t care one way or the other about her. She sure doesn’t come up in any of my real life discussions. Her wedding day was the exception.
Given that the US is a more individualistic society, she may have more support than in the UK....from the handful of people who pay attention.
But- I seriously don’t think people care that much. Between our presidential election mess, COVID....she’s pretty far down on the list of things people care about.

Yes, I know that most people don't care one way or the other but those who do are more likely to support her than not (from what I've seen) and references to Meghan in the American media seem to be positive.

I think you may be under this impression because her "fans" are so vocal, but really, I think just as many Americans (if not more) think badly of her, for reasons we've already discussed many times in these threads. I would not, by any means, look to the American media to judge how she is viewed here. Overall, honestly, in a country of over 300 million people, very few care about Meghan......or Harry........or the BRF, and that's before the pandemic. Now? Forget it.

That's not true at all. For one thing, most Americans don't care one way or the other about the monarchy. Those who do follow the monarchy, I would say are not fans of Meghan in particular. IMO, the ones who love her are those who either probably didn't even know who she was before she dated Harry and love the fairy tale aspect of it or those who did know who she was and loved the fairy tale aspect of it. Both probably already loved Harry to begin with.

Not quite, it was much more flowery than that; quote:She said “ a meal is like a hug”??? Lol Reminds me of some other overly poetic language Harry used recently. I really don’t go for overly saccharine, flowery language personally. It’s distracting. And eye- roll worthy.
Can I point out about her doing a segment about people needing to use a charity to feed themselves in the middle of a global pandemic, and only a day later she gifts a food item to a woman who, I think, is richer than the Queen? and than we find out she invested in the company.
I don't know, it just doesn't sit right with me. It feels.. almost hypocritical to me.
I totally agree with you about the media being any kind of barometer on her popularity. The media likes to think they speak for us. They don’t. I read way too many articles that explain what “we” think. As if “we” all agree.
I think she’s likely more popular here than the UK, but I also don’t think that’s saying much either.
I am with you on this one, it just didn't sit right.
I do not have a problem with her investing in a business, but on one hand she is talking about feeding the poor and needy then it is this big hamper to one of the richest women in the world.
I know it was done for maximum publicity and I understand that, I just found it uncomfortable.
There is nothing appearing to be genuine in what they do it is all for publicity, a marketing ploy.
I have to agree that the back to back instances of a philanthropic message on one hand followed up by what is clearly a "plug" for something Meghan's invested in is what makes me wonder "what's in it for her". It taints even the most altruistic intentions. Makes me not even care to know just what "product" Meghan has invested in.
