Yet they both spoke of the coldness and restrictions put upon them by the stuffy 'men in the grey suits' who put added strains on their marriages.
I doubt Meghan knows how the royal show really works and who really runs that show - not the Queen or Charles etc but those same stuffy advisers and I doubt they are much different these days. How is an young woman used to independence and a successful career of her own going to fit in with such a structured and stifling atmosphere? Diana and Fergie couldn't manage it. They were both free spirits in their own individual ways. They liked the spotlight and in the royal family that doesn't go down well at all. I sense that Megan likes the spotlight too and could be a bit too pushy for their liking.
Kate had about 10 years of dating William to learn the ropes and be sure she could cope with it all. She also had no job of her own and seems to be more retiring and not the type to push herself forward.
So I don't know - Meghan just doesn't seem to me to be ideal, quiet, obedient royal wife material, and in that family you have to be. Otherwise they can eat you up and spit you out.

I agree with all you say apart from the part Ive highlighted, I think she will push herself forward too much,she will take the title Princess Pushy off Princess Michael ,the way she over spoke and run the interview at their engagement while holding on to Harry with both hands was a turning point for me, i saw then there just something not right with her

I'm not sure tbh Chuff .
But I did notice that she was more outspoken in the interview ,but she's use to the limelight . I don't think I've watched any of her acting roles,so I don't really know .

And she touched Harry alot PDA . And on their royal visit back in December in Nottingham she was spending alot of time with the crowds talking, which again is a bit different .

I guess time will tell , I'm not a big royal fan . And it does annoy me when anything with the royal family takes centre stage in news programmes .

Her life will never be the same again that's for sure, and even though she was already in the spot light , being apart of the royals is on another level and is a huge responsibility.

Even Kate got cold feet when she met William at University , didn't they break up at one point?. I think she found it overwhelming . But clearly she's fitting in now . But I wish people would stop going on about what hat or dress she's wearing .

But anyway we'll see what happens with Megan . All the best to them .

I love Dianas boys ,HATE Charles and his bitch ......... I knew nothing about Meghan until she got with Harry, but its maybe a mother gut feeling I've got about her,but she just rubs me up the wrong way and i fear trouble ahead with her

What I hated back in the Charles & Diana days was the double standards .

Charles cheated on Diana on their bloody wedding night! ,he even got caught saying vulgar things he wants regarding Camilla and her feminine hygiene item .

Diana was treated badly, and she got snapped with lovers /close friends . While Charles was let off lightly .

So yeah I'm not a fan of Charles either, and William seems mature and decent.
Harry was the wild child and honestly I was surprised when his engagement was announced, I didn't expect mr bachelor to settle down .

He seems a bit guarded a times especially when Alison tried to interview him in Nottingham, or was he just scared of Alison's bubbly loud personality. He ran away practically .

Diana was used by the Royal family ,Charles slept with horse face the night before the wedding in the royal train parked in a siding ,no doubt he would have had to ask the Queen for permission ... Yes Wills and Harry are total opposites,but both lovely boys ( men) who both take after their Mother

I honestly think Diana was out of her depth , she was like a lamb to the slaughter .

It's shocking how badly the royal family used her considering you can't get anymore English Rose than Diana , she seemed to care and had warmth , the fact they called her the people's princess said it all .

But I think in the end she had to be honest about her marriage to Charles being an utter shambles , she outed him as a cheater saying there was 3 people in their marriage . Poor woman had alot of crap to deal with and knowing Ugly Camilla is having it off with her husband.

I still say the Royals hand a massive hand in her death

William is The Queen and Harry is Princess Margaret.

I was referring to Kate not pushing herself forward Chuff, not Meghan, who I think will be too pushy for the 'Firm'.

I don't think she'll be pushy at all.

She just has more self confidence than Kate does, who is more reserved.

Doesn't seem anything more than a British/American difference to me. We are more reserved than our cousins across the pond.
