Does anyone else find it refreshing to finally see people in the public eye using their platforms to raise awareness on such raw issues?

Two weeks ago i miscarried. And in all honesty i felt so alienated as everyone around you seems to be going for scans or giving birth and your sat wondering why me?

To wake up to read an article written by a woman who has come away from such a strict establishment and speak up about such a heartbreaking experience i find quite comforting and that it is OKAY to speak about such a painful loss.
To think that even though these people who are open to the world and ripped to shreds by the media and trolls, we must remember are still human.

After reading meghans article i am heartbroken for the couple as knowing that same feeling is something i will never forget also. But at the same time i am grateful that she has opened up and made it clear we need to talk more.

For anyone who has miscarried/loss or going through a hard time, you are amazing and strong do not ever think any different xxx

I stand by my statement. Kate might be smart but how in the world do you compare that with MM? Confused
I am not being nasty. It’s a comment from someone who believes in meritocracy and believes that if someone has been working hard, that should be appreciated and applauded. What is wrong with that?[/quote]
What you said was the opposite of “Kate might be smart”. It was nasty. I haven’t made any comparisons. You have.

I’m not interested in guessing at their comparative intelligence. This whole “battle of the fans” bollox is ridiculous and so childish.

Kate isn’t a smart woman as Meghan though, is she? So 🤷🏻‍♀️
@GroundAlmonds
This is what I said. How does that mean Kate isn’t smart and MM is? It means one is smarter than the other and has more merits as a woman.
I truly want women to be appreciated based on who they are and what they have actually achieved/done/are planning to achieve. MM wins on that merit. This is what I said.
