The majority of the British people were enchanted by Meghan initially - she was welcomed with open arms. The excitement around the engagement and wedding, the crowds turning up to see the lovely bride; 1.9 billion tuned in to watch.

Then reports started coming out of the Palace about how she left members of her staff in tears, even one of Kate’s own staff by her rude, demanding attitude. She made Kate cry in a dispute over Charlotte’s bridesmaid attire. She threw a tantrum because she was refused a tiara promised to Eugenie for her wedding, which was delayed because Harry took precedence. Harry declared that ‘What Meghan wants, Meghan gets’.
Staff came and went. Nanny’s came and Nanny’s went - 5 or so in 9 months….
And lots more besides which with the passage of time has been verified by those respected royal reporters whose job it is to find out what is fact and what is malicious fiction.

She and Harry have repeatedly disrespected the Queen, who doesn’t need the antics of the pair of them in her 94th year.
Since bolting the UK they have gone from one blunder to another and seem intent on annoying the Royals, like rebellious teenagers. Pathetic.

But that’s all fine to all those who jump to her defense and never admit to a single wrong doing by her. Few actually take the time to look deeper to ascertain what is true and what isn’t (and in fairness there were some that were untrue or exaggerated). They didn’t need to make things up really - Meghan was the gift that kept on giving - and she still is. She can’t seem to help herself unfortunately.
All this hatred over unconfirmed reports

The royal family announced that they would pay for the wedding.[42] The costs for the cake, the florist, and the catering had been estimated to be £50,000, £110,000, and £286,000 respectively,[43] and the overall cost was expected to be around £32 million.[44]

Frogmore Cottage. We paid for the refurbishments, not for the cottage, which was given to them by the Queen and which is a large estate, not a cottage at all.

Cost around the same as the wedding. Of course, the royal family bought all the land and property they own.

Charles makes over £1 million a year in cornwall, from properties where people die without leaving wills or have family.

So people are happy to pay for the Royal family as long as they continue to behave like they have sticks up their arses and they don't speak out of turn and dress appropriately or what? Such outdated weird ****

Perhaps you should read it all because you have clearly misunderstood or simply not able to understand plain english.
But if you want to keep twisting what i say into what you want to percieve it as...carry on.

I am chilled out thanks.
As for Meghan being treated differently for doing the same as Kate, true enough (Kate and her family didn't exactly get it easy either). The same thing happened with Diana vs Fergie. It's mindless 'filler' tabloid nonsense.

It doesn't mean Meghan's character is beyond reproach and her diva behaviour and high - handedness as related by long - time insiders (whose reports over the years have a habit of turning out as having been accurate) is all a pack of lies, does it?

This just highlights the megan craziness. You accept anything negative as true, and yet anything that's not as negative you're trying to use logic to counteract. You're almost there. Almost.

I think that works both ways....we cannot critisise because we dont know her...but they can defend someone they dont know......

Wait, you just admitted that Meghan and Kate have been treated differently. Don't you think this warrants some thought?

Meghan isn't a saint because no one is. Kate isn't, Diana wasn't, the queen isn't, Charles isn't, William isn't.

The whole meghan debate didn't come about because folks were mindlessly just defending her for no reason. It started because of the unequal and unfair treatment she received.

...interestingly though, that William and Harry, for their complete differences..?...are not compared in the way that Kate and Meghan have always been, males rarely are ..it’s more a specific female thing ...Meghan doesn’t offer the ‘traditional wife’ and the media said...NO...they couldn’t be praised for their differences and what each would offer their roles, they must be compared...

You accuse Jet of accepting anything negative as true.....but its ok for others to take EVERYTHING negative as false. Thats why I said it can work both ways.

No, I don't think it warrants any thought, they did the same, as I said, with Diana vs Fergie.

No - one is perfect but this thread is about Meghan. The Queen, Kate and William are reportedly adored by their staff. Apparently Charles has a foul temper and throws things at the walls and yells at his staff, then afterwards feels bad and apologises by formal letter!
