Meghan Markle Archetype podcasts & interviews

[susan12345678]

As the last thread filled up & there's plenty of discussion of Meghan's interview in The Cut, seems worthwhile starting a new thread!

A read yesterday that a series of media interviews are planned to promote the podcasts. Should be very interesting if The Cut interview is anything to go by!

What did you think of the Cut interview @Roussette ? Were there not some parts which gave you cause for concern?

That article is hilarious. Love the photo of her sitting at her power desk, with Harry looking creepily in the window - at first I thought he was the gardener or something.
He really has been relegated to useful idiot

This made me laugh. I can't unsee it now.

'Its probably because she constantly seeks out the limelight though her celebrity marriage and makes improbable self aggrandising claims, such as her most recent comparing herself to Nelson Mandela. hth.'

This!

How can any Sussex supporters seriously keep bleating the same old racist accusations when it is their behaviour including interviews, podcasts, books oversharing their perceived slights that are the problem. Not the colour of her dm's skin.

Can anyone please explain why on earth she would have made the Mandela comment and agree the week of Harry's dm's anniversary is not a good time to share their crap?

Court Jester …. he even juggles

Is that what you linked on the other thread? If so, I commented about it to you.

If it isn't that, I'm dipping in and out at the moment so might have missed something else.

Ehh?? @Roussette you seem to be channeling MM's own disingenuousness.

"That" is what EVERYONE is talking about on here!

You said it was 'interesting'. Whereas if I were Prince Charles I would be heartbroken. Can't you see that?

I think she is deliberately turning conventional expectation on its head. She has married a Prince but turned him into her underling. Someone she steers around or walks ahead of. He pops up during HER interview to compliment someone’s hair, then disappears again. He juggles outside whilst she zooms.

On the OW interview he is only permitted to appear halfway through, once M has had her say. Her attitude towards him is of condescending indulgence. She wants everyone to see that he may be Royal, but she’s in control. It’s the ultimate two fingers up to the RF.

Really? Is this your defence of what MM said about the real marriage being 3 days earlier in her back yard?!!!!!
She said her £33M wedding watched by 1.9 billion people wasn't even a real wedding because the real wedding was a SECRET wedding. Basically laughing at those 1.9 billion viewers who she implied were not watching what they thought they were watching. Nice.

I don’t think she was laughing at the 1.9billion witnesses to her wedding. I think she was saying how overwhelming it was and that she and Harry had had a private blessing from the AB of Canterbury that marked the start of their marriage.

It’s in the title Rousette

What a shocking way to treat another human being …. where are all the equality values she espouses / campaigns for in that behaviour?

Meghan wasn’t even consistent about the wedding in the course of the Oprah interview. She starts off by saying that it was going to be a big media spectacle but she wanted to remind herself it was still “their” day by playing “we’re going to the chapel and we’re going to get married”:

The night before, I slept through the night entirely, which is a bit of a miracle, and then woke up and started listening to Going To The Chapel, to make it fun and light and remind ourselves this was our day. We were both aware in advance of that this wasn’t our day, this was the day planned for the world.

Obviously she forgot that they’d already got married though, as she told us later:

Even at our wedding, you know, three days before our wedding, we got married . . . No one knows that. But we called the Archbishop, and we just said, ‘Look, this thing, this spectacle is for the world, but we want our union between us’. So, like, the vows that we have framed in our room are just the two of us in our backyard with the Archbishop of Canterbury,

No I was writing about Charles, and I didn't say he was a paedophile but that he'd enabled them - as has been proved

She just talks a load of old shit doesnt she saddest thing is she believes it
Its quite embarrassing

‘Narrative’ refers to fictional stories - ie those with no or little basis in fact.

When people refer to Meghan as narcissistic, it’s not a completely made up thing they plucked out of their arses with nothing whatsoever to back it up. It’s on the basis of repeated patterns of behaviour, ways of treating people (including her supposed nearest and dearest) and twisting of facts to suit herself (her own narrative, in fact).

All together it adds up to look like something pretty narcissistic.

Whether she does or doesn’t have a personality disorder diagnosis is something we’re not likely to ever know. Even if she got one. Which isn’t that likely, as a hallmark of narcissists is that they’re completely incapable of seeing things from other peoples points of view. As far as they’re concerned they’re fine - perfect in fact. It’s everyone else who’s at fault.

Has it ever struck you just how many people around Meghan have been ostracised and denigrated by her?

Her father and his side of the family
Harry’s family
Royal staff
Her erstwhile best friend.
Staff on foreign trips
Press (ok, I’ll give you that one)

And so it goes on.

Either she has been incredibly unlucky, repeatedly, in her choice of friends, staff and BOTH families..... OR the common denominator here is her.

Which is most likely, do you think?

I get the feeling that she brooks
no contradiction or opposition from anyone. not
even Harry. Any opposition will result in sackings or being ghosted.

I liked that MM was going to join the RF at the start.
But she has so many things that are demonstrably untrue.

But not only that they have claimed that they wanted to step away from the FR yet they are still trading on their titles and making money out of claims that cannot be proven.

They keep on giving. It’s just one big game to MM. The continued wanting to be talked about even if it’s in a negative way. When will they ever stop and just lead the “quiet life” they demand.

She lied @HubbaHubble and implicated the Archbishop of Canterbury in that lie! He then had to make a statement confirming he did not perform their legal marriage in their garden. If MM is as smart and lovely as you would have us believe, why is she so casual with these very important claims?

@Serenster just posted the verbatim: “Even at our wedding, you know, three days before our wedding, we got married . . . No one knows that. But we called the Archbishop, and we just said, ‘Look, this thing, this spectacle is for the world, but we want our union between us’. So, like, the vows that we have framed in our room are just the two of us in our backyard with the Archbishop of Canterbury,”

I just can't imagine how self centred and self important someone would have to be to compare a wedding to Mandela's release. It beggars belief.

The whole situation is so sad. Harry was looking for a mother figure (IMO) and thought he'd found it in Meghan, whereas everyone else can see that her behaviour is controlling and belittling, and just "odd": Harry is so brainwashed/besotted by her, he still thinks the sun shines out of her backside.

I still don't think it will end well - that it won't be a long marriage, but Harry is kind of trapped, with one child being an American citizen.

“One of the first things my husband saw when we walked around the house was those two palm trees,” she coos. “See how they’re connected at the bottom? He goes, ‘My love, it’s us.’  And now every day when Archie goes by us, he says, ‘Hi, Momma. Hi, Papa.’

From The Cut interview. 😂She is so annoyingly Californian and twee and new agey.

How would you know people do that unless you are on the same sites and recognise the repeat posters?

She is a fascinating character.

Anyone who has ostracized their own family and then within a couple of years become ostracized by their in laws, and their husband is also now estranged from the family he was previously very close to, sets huge alarm bells ringing.

She seems ruthless and determined which means she'll probably be very successful but will be prepared to hurt many people along the way. Which would be fine to some degree, as that's what successful people are often like. But it's the pretence that's she's all about kindness and empathy that I cannot bear, and that's she's a victim.

I'd be much more impressed if she was more openly tough without the 'healing and thriving' shit. But I presume that all plays well to the US market if not here.

I am sad for Harry though. And for Charles and William. A family rift like this is very hard to bear. He'll feel he's had to choose his wife or family and there is really only one choice he could have made, but it must be very sad.

When they first got engaged he, and the rest of us, really thought he'd found just what he wanted. A beautiful loving wife who would embrace the royal family life and help him follow in his mum's legacy. It's all so far from what he hoped for.

She is nasty and spiteful. Anyone who challenges her behaviour is then branded racist. She's a dangerous Walter Mitty type.
