I was just astonished that literally from the first date they were photographing /filming themselves. I kept wondering who was taking the shots. Who was there with the camera? It was just so bizarre. The filming of the proposal was just so peculiar. She was obviously waiting for him to propose and had discussed it with the friend before it happened . She goes into his wardrobe and finds the ring. Films it and tells her friend ‘it’s happening’ . If is just so calculated. Why can’t Harry see that for himself? He was being groomed for want of a better word by her.
Why would anyone document themselves from the off, even down to taking a photo on their second meeting? I bet that was her idea so she could show her friends and boast.
The thing that hit me from the beginning was the statement right at the beginning saying the RF has not responded with any comment to the documentary. They hadn’t even seen it by that point!! So more lies, smoke and mirrors.
They came across as very soft and lovely, and their love seems genuine. However I think we are being told a very skewed and heavily edited version of what really happened. They know the RF can’t give their version, which seems very unfair.
I find them both very contrived, self satisfied and tone deaf. Whilst having sympathy for Ms struggle to fit in, I doubt it is really true there was no one to advise on protocol. I think she just didn’t want to listen. Why on earth didn’t she have a clue what a ‘walkabout’ was? Why didn’t she have a clue how to curtsy? It’s not hard to learn. I was taught at ballet school as a child! She hadn’t taken the trouble to find out anything about the family she was marrying into. I find that bewildering. She was an actress, used to learning lines and doing research on a role. How hard was it to watch footage of the Queen or even Diana? Was she just so lazy she couldn’t be bothered?
The first meeting with Kate and William…
They are public figures meeting a woman they don’t know , from a very different background. Of course they would have been wary and a bit worried . Hugging from the off and being completely relaxed would have been difficult. Harry’s other girlfriends had been introduced slowly and trust had been built up. Also, the narrative being told in this documentary is very different from that we were told at the engagement interview. ‘Catherine has been wonderful’. Now we are told she was cold and unwelcoming. They just keep shifting their accounts of what happened to fit the current mood. I get the idea that actual truth is something malleable for them. She in particular just invents herself as she goes along. If you consider this, if is rather chilling. Here is a couple who have ditched both their families apart from Doria, who it appears can do no wrong. They’ve caused immense hurt and pain. Yet they seem to have no real self awareness. They’re in a bubble of self congratulation and perceived victim status, living a very privileged life. That life wouldn’t have been possible without the status and titles bestowed by Harrys family connections. Yet they rubbish those at every turn.
They make race the reason for every difficult thing Meghan experienced. Instead of looking at themselves and wondering if perhaps their own behaviour and attitudes are to blame. The nasty British public and the evil Press are wholly to blame for their problems. Not forgetting the evil family.
Watching the documentary is like eating a huge luscious cake and then finding it is laced with poison.
