Meghan Markle (Duchess of Sussex)

[LostLegend]

I think she came into the family as an outsider, took one long look at the inbred, nonce defending freak-show that is the Royal Family and legged it back to the US.

Can’t blame her really.

She seems to draw a lot of strong opinions from people.

I've not followed her career closely. I've never watched any of the programmes/films she's been in.

My awareness of her has been since she became involved with the monarchy in the UK. And I don't follow their lives closely.

I struggle to understand why people have strong opinions about her and why she draws so much ire.

What are people's opinions?

Prince Hewitt is punching well above his weight.

She's American Dave. She has the right to bare arms.

If the reason for the thread was solely this pun, then it was worth it.

Yikes some scorching takes in here already. Well done @Jebus_lives, this may get locked before the Irish unification thread

H&M = the Prince and Princess of Norn Iron?

 

[tsubaki]

No character though. I mean, she refuted her own religion to join that circus of grotesques. What sort of person denies their own identity like that?

one of the best French kings did that

Chris always delivers high quality content in this type of thread

I`m a massive fan, of his complete and utter, unadulterated grumpiness.

Once she gets to know you a bit Chris she'll realise you're more a misogynist than a racist. Give her time

Harsh, Chris is the best misanthrope on GOT by a country mile. He hates everyone I feel. Except maybe his wife.

If that was the case she wouldn't go by Duchess of Sussex would she? Nor would she have been so content with receiving lots of financial aid to help their move to USA.

Prince Charles's accounts suggest about £4.5m was spent funding the activities of both the couple and the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge during the 2020-21 financial year, which started in April 2020.

A senior Clarence House spokesperson said the Prince of Wales had allocated "a substantial sum" to support their transition to financial independence. "That funding ceased in the summer of last year. The couple are now financially independent."

The Saudis covered the bill for their "transition" with that suitcase full of cash. It may have had some DNA of a journalist in the case but apparently it's been lost at Newcastle's training ground.

In fairness to him, my auntie was a career teacher and she has developed a very similar outlook on life lol

I know you're just having a cheeky jab but I'm really not. I rail against the current media obsession that everything about women is incessantly positive and they never do anything wrong, I rail against the current media obsession that men are mainly portrayed as inept, stupid or evil. I am irritated that most tv and radio output seems to be aimed at women.

When it comes to my views to a human being through direct contact I always treat them based on who they are and what they do or say. Race and gender is absolutely irrelevant in this. I'm fairly sure that if I sat down and thought about it, I'm pretty sure I'd dislike* 95% of men equally to the 95% of women i dislike*, so I'd call that a balance.

*or avoid for being tediously boring

 

[chrismpw]

So, not bigoted, then? Just two-faced? Which is what you were so eager to agree is a vile characteristic of Meghan's, in your first post in the thread?

Sweet.

Grow up. Name a person, any person, not guilty of describing somebody differently not to their face. And this is entirely different from me having named them and describing them as such behind their back.

I'm not sure about her sometimes.

I’d lick her arse till my tongue bled.

I can't stand the lot of them mate and by association that includes her too.

Quite a few different avenues of discussion going on in this thread.
