Mr markle child images?

Of course on another thread they are criticising her statement. She is damned whatever she does.

yep very predictable.

There’s some very unhinged in the world. Unfortunately the internet means we get to see what they’ve say. Best to ignore.

The thing is that you can’t win with a situation like this in your family. I’ve cut my whole family off for similar reasons, protecting a known convicted paedophile and not protecting the children in the family from him. Everyone has an opinion. I’m a terrible person because that’s your mum! You only get one mum! And then there are people who criticise me for not doing it fast enough (I did stop all contact with my children from day 1, absolutely no questions about that, but I did try to help my mum leave the relationship for several years before finally going NC). No matter what you do, it’s wrong in someone’s eyes. Often those same people would do absolutely nothing if they had to walk a day in your shoes. I’m not a huge fan of MM, but well done to her navigating a really difficult situation as tactfully and gracefully as possible. Until you’ve had to do it, you have no idea how you’d respond.

She found out because she was notified by the police. Where’s this idea that she was keeping this secret from authorities come from?

I suppose this would explain a lot, but I wonder why, if she knew about this back in 2018, she still reached out to him when he was very unwell last year? She made a point of making a public statement saying she’d reached out with a handwritten letter and he confirmed it. That just seems a bit odd to me - if she had reason to believe he was a paedophile, surely she wouldn’t want to be seen doing anything other than fully cutting him off? From both a PR and moral perspective?

I mean I get he’s her dad, but for most people the accusation is so awful that would be enough to completely sever all ties.

Now I’m not saying it’s not true, I’m more questioning the timing of when she says she came to know about it.

It reminds me of the screams about Meghan's accusations of RF being "proof", LookOut

Of course whatever her father may or may not have done isn't her fault, but you'd think some would have learned by now not to leap to conclusions on the basis of no evidence at all

Omg get a grip. You should be saying poor children who were in those photos not poor Megan. It’s really odd to me that the majority of her supporters posting here have not mentioned the victims of the abuse but save their sympathies for Megan Markle.

She also wrote to him last year when he was in hospital.

Yep, why did some assume authorities weren’t involved & M discovered this herself but kept quiet? No evidence for that…

I’m not a fan of Meghan but her statement today was very good. She may not have written it but I’m sure the sentiments are hers.
I think she genuinely does feel for any children who are victims and has protected her own

I never thought she was wrong for stepping away from her family - their behavior was always very odd - and toxic families can look very different to outsiders.

I do think it was odd to have just her Mother at wedding - mostly if you have family like that you do small weddings or fill it with friends not people you do not even know - but I think she saw it more as network opportunity. But at time never though it odd - just though oh family diffcult - still belive she was a nice person and a good thing for RF.

It was her tone deaf comments in african that made be double blink - and her subsquent behavior - though she gets a shit tone of flack for Harry's poor decisions.

However staying the hell away from her Dad with young kids is best thing and only correct thing she could have done after being shown the allegations to protect her kids and probably took some considereable courage and painful decion making.

An inconvenient thing to point out to her fans, HatAndScarf, and as you say the publicity over the hospital contact doesn't chime terribly well with the instant "Look why I had to cut him off!!"

Perhaps it's a matter of wanting to have it both ways ... ?

Awful that its happening to you as well

Posters on here who determined to vilify her endlessly

That's a good clear statement from Meghan. I feel so sorry for her having to navigate reconciling the Dad she grew up with and these accusations. It sounds as if she knew since 2018 and thought it was being investigated hence she couldnt speak about it.

She ha she reasons why not just drop it her wedding was so mnay years aho. What is if to you why they weren't there, maybe some couldn't make it, too ill to travel, couldn't get time off work, didn't wsnt to be photographed, didn't want any media attention..omg so many bloody reasons. Who the hell is still being bothered by it and why?

Because as her statement says it was allegations, not proof, no evidence just allegations. Not to mention the media pile on and omg the comments on this board and on other sm platforms about her not being in touch with her Dad over his health. Ffs how many posters on here said what a horrible person she was and she should have reached out...so maybe under pressure she did and now you use it against her again. Give it a break.

Feeding into my previous responses about Lady Colin Campbell’s allegations in her book (that a friend of H&M hinted to her that Thomas abused Meghan) I think Meghan’s statement confirms LCC was indeed told something but it was misconstrued by the third party or LCC. She did say the person was very vague and didn’t want to say the actual words itself.

That’s a pretty powerful statement from Meghan.

Why do you feel sorry for me? What an odd thing to say

I find it crazy that people are more annoyed at Meghan than the actual pedophile!!!

I do have as big enough brain thanks and my sympathies are entirely with those children

Not having your family at a huge public wedding does look vey odd - more odd when family she was close to say the were not invited and people say they were but didn't know her.

With hindsight a lot of her very poor behavior and decison making - and Harrys was on show with the wedding - but many including me just didn't see it.

Also they've used wedding and events round it to publically attack RF and as a UK tax payer I help pay for the secuity - that wouldn't have been needed if they'd has a smaller event.

I can comment on what I want - I'm sorry it doesn't fit your narrative of poor
Meghan.

Personally I think she gets way too much flack for Harry choices but also she has her own self inflicted problems as well.
