Meghan and Harry Expecting A Baby

Back when Harry & Meghan got engaged I saw a conversation between a couple of idiots on another forum who said the Queen probably gave permission for them to marry under the condition they don't have children. :rolleyes: (reference was made to Meghan's race) Such bigotry and ignorance boggles the mind.

Congrats to the happy couple! :)

I saw the Lifetime TV movie of when Meghan met with the Queen at Buckingham Palace for the first time. The Queen gave them her blessing and showed them a huge masterpiece painting hanging on the wall of a mixed-race relative of the British Royals...Charlotte of Mecklenberg-Strelitz, who was married to King George lll. She was part African from a Portuguese Royal line. Buckingham has not denied this account.

I'm sorry to sound sound negative,but I've read enough about Harry&Meghan,most over exposed media couple in the world
I understand there is great fascination in UK because Harry being younger son of late Princess Diana, are part of Royal Family,but here in U.S Who cares?
People Magazine loves to have any royal on their cover will probably have them on every week,its become so boring!!!!
 
I guess I'm a weird American because I actually do like watching the goings on of the Royal family. Maybe it stems from those old fairy tales I used to read as a child...handsome prince, castle etc. etc. It was every little girls fantasy. Then as I got older I still continued to watch the weddings, the babies, the tragedy and how it's all handled with grace and etiquette. I suppose comparing that to what we experience here it's a refreshing change from all the name calling etc. So I just wish them all well, hope Meghan has a wonderful pregnancy and I eagerly await the birth. Hopefully her American family won't try to monopolize the event with all of their "American" drama.
 
I wish them well, but I understand where Laurie's coming from. Also Dkay.

It is like the old fairy-tale days. Sometimes I'm fascinated; sometimes disgusted, but they're almost like watching a train-wreck- you can't take your eyes away!

Oh please believe me, there's a massive portion of the population who have just had more than enough of Harry and ..as they have nicknamed meghan..me-again!!

She hasn't endeared herself to the British Public in the same way as those who've joined the royal family in the recent past.

Nothing to do with not being a Brit, because the Queen's grandson peter Philips is married to a Canadian, but the public just haven't taken to her very much at all..and in the interim, Harry has gone from being the Public's darling, to much lower in their estimations..
 
Awww...I think they're both very sweet.
How can the Brits say she hasn't endeared herself to them?
She hasn't been a royal long enough to know, right?

Bigotry & ignorance....hummm. So someone is ignorant , and a bigot just because they do not agree with you? Are we not permitted our own opinion , our own view of things?

Why is it that the so-called tolerant & inclusive bunch....cannot be tolerant to the fact that we all have different opinions. Why is it also this same bunch that seem to need to resort to name calling & labeling the minute someone opposes them?

Hi,I think if Harry's parents weren't who they were/are the media attention wouldn't be so intense.
I've noticed lately when other members of the Royal Family are involved in something, here in the U.S we'll get a 'blurb' either on the news or in papers
A perfect example,Prince Andrew&his ex wife,Sarah Ferguson's daughter,Eugenie got married this past weekend.I'm think some Americans have no clue who she is until you mentioned her parents Sue
 
Admittedly, I know very little about this, but to me she seems very charming and intelligent. What gaps do I have in my knowledge?

(Not referring to the tabloid press's obsession with the royals, which they apparently can't do too much about. Diana tried, without success. But what exactly have Harry and Meghan done to be criticized for?)

I totally agree; I have no more than a passing interest. I wish them the best but I'm by no means a "royal watcher."

I don't get the whole "royalty" thing anyhow. One day you're a television actress and the next day "Your Highness?" Not in my world. :D If I were a British taxpayer, I'd be really annoyed that my tax dollars were buying Meghan's $800 shoes, etc. What a waste.

Really, Holly! I didn't know that. Maybe it's her wing-ding father or lunatic half sister.

Much as most people have little time for the sister, a great deal of the people seem to have turned against her when her father wasn't invited to the wedding ..at least that's how people see it, and even if the father had been and couldn't attend due to ill health, she hasn't been in touch with her father since the wedding. People are finding that hard to tolerate, they see her as a Gold digger, having married twice, and willing to cast aside all of her family save her mother for a bite at the golden apple .

Now please..don't get me wrong, I'm not saying that's my opinion, I'm just telling you what a vast swathe of the UK population are thinking and being very vocal about ... although I personally do admit to feeling sorry for the father!!

C'est Moi...yep that's another thing so many tax payers are highly upset about...
 
I see what you mean Holly. Funny, I thought it was more the Firm that didn't want the father at the wedding rather than Meghan, but you're closer to it than I am. Thanks.
 
Now I hear that some of the royals have their gold-plated knickers in a twist about the baby announcement, which was apparently made at Beatrice's wedding. If that is true, then it was rather "not done, my dear", as one is not supposed to do anything at a wedding celebration to take away from the bride and groom's "moment".

I will admit that I am one who follows the Royals with a certain amount of glee. I'm just a little girl at heart, still wanting to be a princess.
 
I hadn't heard that the baby announcement was made at the wedding. That's kind of sad in a way if true. The baby announcement could have waited a couple of days.
 
..at just 12 weeks and with a large coat on I would somehow doubt it tbh!!..but if it's true, then I still think they could have left the disclosure for another day..or even the previous day
 
I enjoy reading about them, think they make a cute couple...she seems genuine to me...so far anyway.

But, I think they should have made the announcement another time. Upstaging someone's wedding is not a good idea....ever.

Just one of the many things that has earned her the nickname with much of the British Public...
