Not in her case it doesn’t, people simply don’t like her and her puppet husband.

I suppose her money makes her immune to mental health issues and even death too!!!

Maybe the people on social media obsessed with them will move on... maybe not.

Harry and Meghan are no longer royals, they are basically just celebrities at this point so it's weird to obsess over them. If you truly dislike them, look the other way, live your best life not acknowledging them, don't rile yourself up hating someone who doesn't know or care that you exist.

If they were world leaders, then sure, hate away, analyse their actions in that capacity but they're just celebrities. It's just so pointless to pop up ONLY when their names are brought up.

As you would say, you are entitled to be wrong.
Harry was born a royal and will always be one. As long as they insist on keeping the royal titles of Duke and Duchess of Sussex and using their royal status to line their pockets without doing the actual job that comes with the titles, people are entitled to criticize them and their many dubious and hypocritical actions.

Except I'm not, they stepped away from that life. They're just celebrities now

There's plenty of celebrities I don't care about but I don't lie in wait for news about them to pick apart. I prefer to focus on things that actually matter.

When they no longer call themselves the Duke and Duchess of Sussex and stop benefiting from those titles and make it on their own merits, then they will be just celebrities. They have no gravitas or qualifications or experience to rake in the big bucks without their titles. The Obama's they are not.
As long as they sit on their settee in their mansion giving their many hypocritical lectures to date (do as I say, not as I do!) then they are putting themselves out there as public figures influencing public opinion and people have a right to comment on them.
If you just focus on things that actually matter, what do you care what anyone has to say about 2 people you insist are just celebrities? You post in every thread about those 'just celebrities', with no opinions of your own about them- just to tell others what you find weird, obsessive and pointless about their opinions or interest.
Isn't that weird, obsessive and pointless? As we say in Ireland, 'catch yourself on' Dezzy.

Just because they are no longer performing Royal duties does not mean those with an interest in all things Royal should stop taking an interest

[Tom4784]

Usually the people we discuss in SD are world leaders and government officials, people with the power to affect the lives of many, it's not really comparable to a pair of celebrities.

Surprised they have the time for social.media anyway what with being new parents and all that.

Mothers in laws role with all the trimmings.....

Why are they not the 'obamas'... surely by the same principle they are cashing In on old titles to spread some kind of awareness?
He is by birth a prince ... he's given up his birthright.

He will never stop benefitting, he is a royal, strip him of everything and he will still be a Winsor?

Exactly and the same as Diana did after she was stripped of her HRH. He will always be a Prince and the grandson if the Queen, son and brother of the future King.

I was referring to the Obama's gravitas and experience as public speakers....and how Meghan and Harry don't have that behind them as public figures trying to influence the general public with their embarrassing and hypocritical 'lectures'.
The Americans love Royal titles. How do you think a not very bright fella and a z list actress got mega buck deals from Netflix and Spotify?
Neither N or S will be satisfied with their headboy and headgirl lectures and films. They will want more than that out of them for the money.

If they gave up their titles I can't see plain old Harry and Meghan getting many big deals in a few years time. The USA want the TITLES. In fact I think in a few years they will be nobodies anyway once the corporations have had what they want from them - and believe me it isn't their wonderful proven film making talent.

...I think they’ll be fine, though and hopefully have a good future for their family there...

Nothing wrong with being not very bright or a little known actress, not everyone can be top notch...and it IS the truth. what is ooops about it?

[Ammi]

...I have no idea what not very bright or top notch is and how they’re being defined ...Albert Einstein, Richard Branson, Deborah Meaden, Simon Cowell, Guy Ritchie, Lord Alan Sugar...and etc, etc....they may all have been defined as not very bright and yet, they’re very top notch people, indeed...there is no ‘truth’, there are many truths and many definitions of ‘bright’...

Obama was a President...he ran the country for two Terms. Whats Harry done?. They quit the Royal family...they quit for a quiet life. However neither of them want to give up their Royal titles...in fact they tried hard to use them for their own gain until The Queen stepped in. They dont want a quiet life...they want to be celebrities off the back of their Royal titles only with the freedom to do as they like.

Academia is not the be all and end all. Harry fought on the front line....he has given injured veterans purpose with Invictus....all worth more than a few qualifications imo.

[Ammi]

...I’ve spent a huge part of my life working with children who it would be awful for them to feel that some ‘bright’ adults would think of them as ‘not very bright’ people...because they most certainly have been some of the brightest people I’ve known...

Quite right too...but Harry and Meghan aren't children and this is an adult forum, not a classroom.

Indeed, but not worth a mega bucks deal when there are many young talented film and documentary makers out there who would give their right arm for a chance with Netflix for a fraction of the obscene amount the Sussexes are being paid. No wonder Netflix has increased their customers subscriptions.

But he has turned his back on all those now and was not allowed to lay a wreath because it was in bad taste so instead had a photo shoot of the hem laying a wreath at a cemetery

As for protecting his mother’s memory, he uses her name and memory now to gain sympathy and keep the cash coming in

They are using racism to pay for their lavish lifestyle

And lots to of people are not fooled by their bollox.

...no, they’re two very bright adults so far as I can see, there’s no reason to define them any differently...or even to feel that any personal definition of ‘brightness’ would apply to either of them...
