Sounds like she had a wonderful life before Harry, here’s hoping it continues for both of them.

Yes! She has plenty of her own money, a career, beauty, lots of friends. Some are spinning it like she was on the verge of being broke and bumping into walls.😒🤔🙄

Interesting article. Now I know why they dislike Meghan-
Not because she's Bi- Racial
Not because she's American
Not because she's Divorced

It's because she's Catholic! Of course- I had forgotten the royal ban on Catholics.

Could easily be a mixture of ALL of them.

Meghan also didn't make herself easily liked by the public or the royals by breaking a lot of the (sometimes silly) royal protocols, seems she has a dislike of rules. So do I, but I would have never married a royal and having to live under a microscope. And, she knew what it would be like, she dated Harry for two years before tying the knot.

Refusing to shake his brother's hand! So you can still be a jerk even though you have fame, fortune, good breeding AND royal blood. Amazing.
 

If Harry actually did refuse to shake his brother's hand it proves that even wealth, fame, good breeding AND royal blood cannot overcome the tendency to be a jerk.

"LONDON — The U.K. government has proposed a new law that would allow members of the British royal family to marry Catholics without forfeiting their claim to the throne — but Prince Charles, the current heir to the throne, is reportedly unhappy with this idea."

That came into law in 2013. Members of the Royal family can marry Catholics without forfeiting their claim to the throne. " New rules on royal succession have come into force, removing male bias and discrimination against Roman Catholics.
The new rules also allow members of the Royal Family to marry a Roman Catholic and become king or queen.
However, a Roman Catholic royal still cannot become the monarch.

The act also replaces the Royal Marriages Act 1772 and means that only the first six in line to the throne need the Queen's consent to marry."

Media fodder. I agree with treeguy. In most cases we are spoon fed by said media and people swallow it readily. We only ever really see them on well rehearsed "duties", so it's impossible for us to truly gauge what they are about. I don't buy into any of it. The only time I have paid attention to Harry was on his visit to Australia to open the Invictus games. I was impressed, but I'm not going to pretend for one moment to know or judge him (or his wife).
 
The only one my heart reaches out to is the little babby!!! I aways feel sad for the children and Royalty too as despite their priveleges they are human with hearts and feelings whether they are right or wrong impo.

Im sick of the scenario and the media hype in full throttle as per...harks back to the Charles and Diana days.

I am also sick to the stomach and my BP is rising as I type of this division about the Anglican church and the Catholic church its an antiquated antideluvian split harking back to Tudor times and should be eliminated from our present day National structure, imo.

Gonna tak e a BP pill...😮

Thanks, Pam!
Do you think most of the general populace have revised their feelings because of the new law, or have long forgotten the Catholic thing on their own?
 
Members of the Commonwealth are allowed to go to members Commonwealth and work there with just a passport.
That's why they are going to live in Canada. It's a good move.
Think about it. With all the conspiracies and talk about money.
My feelings about it are that he just wants to have his own family life without constant photographers and the press around.
I can't say I blame him.
He inherited his share of his mothers estate.
We don't have to have a benefit stag for Harry and Meghan.

Can't blame it all on the "media". People often make things up, pull stuff out of the air and run with it. 😠
 
They were talking about them on PBS last night. It sounds like initially they'll live in Canada and then come to the US, no timeline given.

Henry VIII would turning in his grave. Al that hassle to create a new religion....

Henry VIII didn't give a hoot about the religion. He only wanted to dump the Catholic faith so he coud dump Catherine of Aragon and be free to marry Anne Boleyn. A nice side effect was that he was then able to raid monasteries for their wealth and also get rid of some assorted inconvenient Catholics while grabbing their wealth, too.

You mean, Gloria? Oooops, Doria, my head was spared once, don't want to push my luck. 🥴:unsure:

Putting your head aside and pushing your luck wherever 😒, supposedly Doria is a nickname. That's the BS story someone else pulled out of the air. 🙄 Or maybe it was something they read about but can't remember where. 🤣

Well, my memory is not perfect, in fact it's quite bad. You have to admit that Gloria and Doria are quite similar.

As to the story I can't remember, there's a LOT to remember about Meghan, she's had quite a life in her short 38 years. To be frank, I am ambivalent about her, don't hate her or like her. I do think she's beautiful and I like that she's a feminist and supposedly loves animals. I like the fact that she has ambition and is a go-getter. As to what I don't like, it's all in the news, I don't know how true all those stories are, but that's all I have to go by. The worst is the story that she abuses the help. I've read that how you treat service people is a signal of your true character. I wasn't there so don't know. For Harry's sake, let's hope it all works out for them.

Such a beautiful family! Kate has come out and said there won't be any more children. She's got one of each and a spare boy, that's good enough. ❤ 😻
