I know this isn't The Royal Family board. I'm not analysing Meghan as I don't know her and she will have no affect on my life. I have become interested in the press and public reaction to her as it feels misogynistic which obviously does affect me.
This is from Jeremy Clarkson today. I feel like is the dark she's and we're hunting witches again.
Meghan, though, is a different story. I hate her. Not like I hate Nicola Sturgeon or Rose West. I hate her on a cellular level. At night, I’m unable to sleep as I lie there, grinding my teeth and dreaming of the day when she is made to parade naked through the streets of every town in Britain while the crowds chant, ‘Shame!’ and throw lumps of excrement at her. Everyone who’s my age thinks the same way.”

It wasn’t Camilla’s lunch or function! This has been pointed out several times on this thread.
It was a lunch thrown by Fortnum and Mason, she was just an attendee- along with Clarkson and Morgan.

I’ve also complained. This is disgusting. I do not like Meghan much. However, I do not wish any harm to come to her and she deserves to be safe. Fuming. I am really disappointed that Camilla invited him and Piers to her private function.

He has done more for M and H cause than any Netflix series could have.
People FINALLY see what happens when people allow apparently small acts of misogyny and racism to be silently condoned. Vile people get viler and "braver" and this is the result.

It’s a vile article. I wonder what his daughter and partner think of it? Not that I’m in anyway holding them responsible for his words but I’d be disgusted if a male relative of mine wrote similar. Does he not think of them when he wrote this. He’d be furious if someone wrote similar about them.

The irony of trying to blame a woman yet again!
Quite! I’m not a Meghan fan, but nobody can doubt she was genuinely treated appallingly by the press even before this. Blaming her for Harry’s decisions is absolute misogyny. And blaming Camilla for being at a (200 guest) lunch also attended by Clarkson is another example. She shouldn’t attend events in case there’s a misogynistic journalist there?! She’d never attend anything if that was the rule. And the King is the head of the royal family, so whatever their collective response to M&H’s treatment by the media it is HIM in charge of it. Probably with the Prince of Wales as an advisor (as he himself was advisor to his mother when he was PoW).
I’m surprised how many people are surprised it was published though. People from Merseyside have been saying for decades: don’t buy the Sun!

She would have known who was on the guest list.

"Hosted by Ewan Venters"
Not hosted by Camilla. I wouldn't read that as it being her party.

"As she proves Meghan isn't the only one with pulling power"
So in other words Camilla is the one that invited the guests.
How pathetic are they now that they need to mention Meghan's name to get engagement? Otherwise why is Meghan mentioned here at all,?
- because people won't click unless Meghan is mentioned
- Because Camilla was in charge of the guest list
