Standing in one of the world’s poorest countries, the finale and focus of their documentary wasn’t Meghan emphasizing with the hardships and struggles of unfortunate people of that country, it was about poor her.
That self absorbed insensitivity is a recurring theme with Meghan and was a turning point for many who had previously defended her.
There is a time and a place for everything, especially when the world’s eyes are on you. How wrapped up in herself and selfish is she that she was blind to how that would be perceived by the majority of decent people?

You mean in an interview when she was specfically asked a question about all the sh*t that had been thrown at her from the UK media?

Using her response to the backlash as a reason for the backlash in retrospect does not work.

You just compared people criticising a woman for what she says in public to a woman being criticised for who people think she is behind closed doors but don't actually know.

That's just a fact.

If people want to find fault, look around, it's the easiest thing in the world to be critical, it can be applied to absolutely everything and everyone around us. From my own perspective, I find it a lot less stressful to find the good in things rather than the bad and I will try and remain that way

If that is what some want, what are they doing here. :laugh:

If you think her behaviour was fine, okay. Your perogative. :shrug:

What imaginary conversations are you talking about? I'm confused as to the relevance of addressing this to me. My post was about the African interview, nothing else.

Hypocritical., opportunistic bellend.

I think Diana would be supportive of an outsider, treated appallingly by the press and in a mixed race relationship.

You said, and I quote "If you think her behaviour was fine, okay." My point was just that I don't really care, but the people that really dislike her, pretend she's this Machiavellian demigod.

As an example:

Andrew like many of the other royals has been an unpleasant arsehole for decades. People don't like him, they aren't interested in him. People did like Meghan until she started behaving like a spoilt brat, so they feel more disappointed in her.
