Meghan M is Cinderella

[Iggypoppie]

Just a thought, but putting it simply but to use this as a metaphor is quite apt, I think many of her detractors behave like the ugly step sisters (including her actual ss) who wished they had married a prince. Quite amusing really.

NB: I'm no royalist but the negativity and sneering on the other threads makes me question the sanity and values of some posters. It's horrible and totally disproportionate to what megan and harry supposed 'crimes' are.

How are B&E relevant to the Cinderella story? They're born royalty, aren't they? Why would they face anything like what Meghan has?

On the other hand, look at the kind of media attention that was aimed at Sarah Ferguson... that's much more in line with what Meghan has had to deal with.

(I still think Fergie is a dreadful woman, but Prince Andrew is gobsmackingly awful too- I guess there's an uncomfortable undercurrent of sympathy for Beatrice and Eugenie, who have had to live with them..)

I don't think she has done any house chores in Buckingham Palace.

It's not apt at all.

Erm.

Your anology doesn't work.

Hth.

No, not a good analogy. Megan M married in to a royal family as an outsider in every sense of the word. I would venture that one of the reasons people are struggling with her is that she doesn’t have a representative archetype. She is Sui generis.

No mm is NOT cinderella.

However I don't think she really had any idea of what she would be up against as a woman of colour in the royal family. I don't even mean the royals themselves. Can't you imagine the courtiers ?

On the other hand she does seem really 'look at meeeee'

It's a total Cinderella story.
If Cinders set out to snag her Prince Charming, asked him to leave his family, life, 'job' and country behind and then both of them got bankrolled by that family while neither had jobs.
Don't know about Grimm Fairytale, but it is a bit grim.

If you think there is a problem with other theads, deal with it there, or report posts you think go too far to MNHQ

Meghan has thrown the good will of the UK back in our faces..

Then why bother starting a thread about it? And it's Meghan.

Beatrice and Eugenie were actually widely compared to the Ugly sisters in Cinderella on social media due to their outfits at W&K's wedding.

Not sure this helps though. . .

There was a plan to leave the RF before they married if it didn’t work out. If they had any intention of doing that, they shouldn’t have had the Cinderella wedding. Practically no one would be berating them had they been honest from the start. They also knew they were leaving before Frogmore was started. It is clear the house was not to Meghan’s taste and they never had any intention of living there. They took the piss out of the British people, not to mention the tenants they had turned out. We don’t suffer fools gladly.

And no she isn’t fucking Cinderella. Cinderella is the one, who was treated badly as a child. She was daddy’s girl and unashamedly spoiled. If you want to go by your analogy, she was the ugly sister. Her sister, who would have been in her teens, was discarded as an older child by her own father in favour of Meghan.

They took the piss out of the British people, not to mention the tenants they had turned out.

Yes - this is exactly what happened. They acted with little or no responsibility, accountability, care or consideration for others. They behaved like children let loose in a sweet store.

No, she is not Cinderella.

She’s more the lead character in The Princess and the Pea imo. Her sensitivities are such that she feels acute discomfort about things nobody else would bother about. In other words, she imagines/fabricates slights.

Cinderella wore shoes that fitted. Uniquely in fact.

No, I can confirm that’s Princess Anne. I went to see her in a Cambridge Union Society debate decades ago and when commenting on her accommodation she quipped that she had not slept well, due to someone putting a pea under her mattress.😂
