We don't actually know he did do that, yet.

But no, I certainly would be more angry towards a child molester than a preachy woman. And I'd be equally as angry at anybody who knew about it and covered it up.

I agree with you 100% Amy Jade.

If I didn't know any better I'd think that the Media have targeted Meghan to make people forget about the investigation on Andrew.

Why would they do that? What would be the point? If we were talking about William, fair enough. But we're talking about Andrew. A minor royal, and not a very popular one.

He is still the Queen's Son, the Newspapers that are Royalists aren't gonna want to piss her off.

Andrew at harrys age was a major royal... he was in all the papers all the time, randy Andy they called him.

Its only since he got older and the company he kept changed the media lost focus on him ...for some reason.

I don't know why as an actress she can't design clothes, as singers Kanye and Beyonce do it, I suppose anyone can if they have an interest.
And they are royal, stands to reason they would use that label.

Your opinion is that the UK is racist and Meghan only had a rough time because she's black. I think that's and massive generalisation and completely unfounded.

Where did I say that the UK is racist? Not every person in the UK dislikes Meghan.

So what did you mean then, when you suggested Andrew is being let off in some way because Meghan is a mixed race female? You suggest that all the problems with Meghan are only perceived and only because she's mixed race. Huge simplification.

The question was “why is there more outrage at Meghan than Andrew”, and I believe what I said to be the case. Certain people haven’t liked Meghan from the moment she touched down and I feel the “outrage” directed at Harry and Meghan is moreso directed at her and I feel her background has played a huge part in that. Andrew is being let off far more than he should be because the right-wing papers and such are still focused on that “bitch” Meghan because they know it’s what riles their readers up.

Btw, they still are royal highnesses. The queen has not removed the title. They are not to use it but they still have it.

Isn't that all any royal is, tourist attractions... what do these 'duties' involve anyway? Waving, eating food sometimes.

Of course. They don't rule the country anymore than you or I.

It's literally just being the "face" of the UK I would imagine. Representing us. Keeping relations going. But even that is ever dwindling.

So we have a female, poc and foreign who knows her mind.

A perfect target for ALL kinds of bigotry. It'd be difficult to imagine a better target actually
