"not very successful" - jet
She strived for years to get a decent part, and was in her 30's before she got there - and Suits was finishing after the next series anyway. That kind of money is nothing compared to what well established actors get.
Anyone who didn't watch Suits had never heard of her and probably wouldn't have after she left either - apparently she was a one trick pony. Never watched it myself, hadn't even heard of it.

You should watch it. It’s great. You won’t enjoy it though because you’re conditioned to hate Meghan.

I watched SUITS, I enjoyed it and thought she was really good in it actually, that's only my view of course.

Some focused much more on the timing rather than the accusations of bullying, to my recollection, and not on social media, I've said many times I don't read much social media.
I have also said that they were wrong not to investigate it at the time, I repeated that up thread again.

A not very successful actress who wanted everything done her way and flounced off in a major strop when it became obvious that 'what Meghan wants Meghan gets' was only heeded by Harry....and she's still eaten up with bitterness or she would never had done such an interview. The more she goes on about how bad they were to her, the more people will turn away.

I don't know how any future businesses working with her could ever trust her not to damn them in public if they don't tow her line. Poison.

...yeah, I totally doubt that there was any ‘fury’ Rusti, as indicated by the ‘furious’ media headline... of which shows no inclination of concern for any family distances...

Yes, seen that about the 'waiting' unseen footage. It's tantamount to blackmail now - the royals better not defend themselves by refuting what we said, or else we'll spill more!
She's a dirty little player and more people will wise up to her tactics and eventually want nothing to do with her in her new life if she takes that path. Who would trust her?

As I said up thread to Dezzy, and having to repeat:

The women could have come forward themselves to insist the bullying was brought out in the open when they knew the interview was going to be aired to protect themselves. They didn't know what she was going to say about those who worked for her. It is perfectly possible, so your fact isn't a fact at all. We just don't know.

....and, as I said before also, when the bullying news came out, some here focused on the timing, as in "How convenient, just before the interview" as a diversion from the women's claims of being bullied by Meghan. Fact.

It's her devoted fans she has hoodwinked, not her detractors or the monarchy.
She plays on the 'victim' mentality of the emotionally vulnerable who relate to her in some cases.

It is tantamount to Blackmail...otherwise surely if the rest was intended to be shown originally they would have done it in 2 parts ....

Its quite sickening actually..

Shes a two-bit actress and liar which is why the majority in this country have seen right through her and her popularity has plummeted
She has not hoodwinked the Monarchy...they were so focused on Harry being happy I think they just trusted him.

I think you aren't getting what i'm saying and I don't know what emails or TV have to do with what I was saying happened on here and your post is confusing to me so I'll leave it there.

....I have to go so I’ll just quickly post this which isn’t ideal but....

On 2 March, an email sent by one of Harry and Meghan’s aides in October 2018 was leaked to The Times newspaper, suggesting Meghan had behaved unacceptably towards Kensington Palace staff.

The couple had married in the May of that year and had been living with Prince William and Kate Middleton at the time.

The leaked email alleges that Markle mistreated two assistants, which left them feeling forced to leave their jobs - the report added that others felt “humiliated” by the Duchess.



...the email informing the palace of worrying behaviour to some Royal staff was sent by an Aide 3yrs ago but only ‘leaked’ just before the Oprah interview...the ‘timing of the leak’ was part of the story’s context as well as discussed widely by all media...not just the email content, itself...but the whole thing of timing....was that reflected in discussions here, most definitely, of course it was...entire context of stories generally are or try to be...but it didn’t become the focus, as suggested and other aspects dismissed ...there was wide ranging concern expressed that there had been a negligence of care to those staff, from what the story was giving us...it’s a manipulation of fact to say that the concern was of the timing was the main focus, which it very much wasn’t....

We've really moved onto "She hit her 30s before reaching the peak in her career"? As an insult?



Considering the vast majority of actors NEVER make it, she stays winning.

Okay thanks that is clearer. Firstly, the women could have insisted their voices were heard ahead of the interview, because they wouldn't know if she was going to mention them in a derogatory way, so the email was then leaked. Not saying that is what happened, but its possible. We just don't know.

Secondly, I didn't say the timing was the main focus for everyone, because that is untrue, but it certainly was for SOME. In fact, to SOME it was outrage at the timing as their first reaction, and no outrage at the thought that these women may have been bullied by Meghan. Go back and look at the thread...
The narrative wasn't - 'if these women say they were bullied then they felt bullied and we should believe them'!! for some - whereas when Meghan says she was neglected by the Palace it was "if she felt she was, then she was", if she said she had suicidal thoughts, then she did"!!
That is my point. The double standard.

Put it this way, the police and social services plus other agencies knew gangs of Muslim men where abusing vulnerable girls for years

It’s was only when it hit the news big time was the cover up seen.

Only when Meghan decided to do the tell all interview did the bullying allegations come to light.

Palace was wrong Meghan was wrong end of argument
