Prince Harry - Meghan Markle - Duke and Duchess of Sussex - Discussion

@Linds911 I've never been so disgusted with the way they are being treated. The British have that stiff upper lip stuff going on but FFS Harry should have been kept apprised of his grandmothers condition. I'm glad they left the "Firm" I could see Meghan getting the same treatment as Diana, by both the press and the public. Diana loved two MOC during her lifetime and she was vilified for it.

I may be in the minority here. I have watched Prince Harry grow up from a little boy, adored by the British public, even through some escapades! I was glad he found his "love" in Meghan and I believe she genuinely thought that her celebrity experience would help her to fit into the royal family.

I do think she was given a hard time by the press, but honestly so has almost every member of the royal family in their time (including Charles, Camilla and Kate). Each of them kept their own counsel and got on with what is actually a job as well as a family. The working royals work extremely hard for charities, good causes and the British people.

In the US many celebrities frequently share their thoughts, feelings and opinions, but in the UK the royal family tend not to do so. In abstaining from sharing their personal opinions they remain above politics, etc, and unify the country to a large extent over times of difficulty and crisis. This is not how Meghan was raised and she clearly had trouble fitting in - it must be hard to do so. However, she and Harry made the best choice for themselves and stepped out of the "firm", the royal family (if not the intimate family) and left the country. Distance brings its own challenges and when the Queen dies there is much that is immediately put into place. Harry was notified before the general public and probably at the same time as many other members of the royal family.

I watched a vid of Harry mentioning that. His mother was chased by media because she was with a MOC. He says history is repeating itself.

I cannot believe the hatred for Meghan that I sometimes come across. I'm glad Harry had the guts to get out. He also mentions how therapy helped him so much.
