Has anyone’s perception of Meghan changed…

due to Harry’s book?

I think the general consensus so far has been that Harry is emotionally damaged and a bit of a man child/idiot. I’ve also noticed a few comments on here that have said they’re starting to feel a bit sorry for her having to deal with said man child.

It will be interesting to hear other’s opinions on the matter.

Omid Scobie posted the full two pages on his Twitter and the context doesn't really change anything. However it's followed by several paragraphs on 9/11 so it's possible that Meghan approved it with the delusion that it will endear them to the American public.

These were my thoughts exactly. They are hoping to touch a nerve with the US audience and be seen as as a hero.

thecatsthecats · 08/01/2023 11:02

No. I always thought the key thing with Meghan was that she wasn't any more good or bad than the rest of us. Only that Harry guided her poorly, and also that he thought she was PERFECT AND DESERVING OF ALL THINGS.

And when you have a (however understandable) complex about your position in the family, and you see this gorgeous, exciting woman who is willing to take on the challenges, but is falling out with your family in (at first) tiny ways, then all those resentments unravel at once, spiralling into something awful.

Et voila, here we are with the consequences.

I liked her at first , thought the engagement interview was a bit hmmmm , loved the wedding , totally changed my opinion after the tone deaf Africa interview . I think she has manipulated a vulnerable man.
I do worry about the children .

snapdragon12 · 08/01/2023 11:07

No. I thought she was abrasive
and manipulative from the start. Now I just see someone maximising her own status via someone else's vulnerabilities. Any loving wife, who read through an autobiography manuscript like this would have advised them to stop, take a break, think. Her voice is right there in the book. Hard to believe she wasn't instrumental to it's creation.

liveforsummer · 08/01/2023 11:08

I'm not sure, I've never disliked her anyway but it's interesting that she's been so very quiet throughout. My opinion of Harry has certainly changed and I'm really unsure how much of a part she has in all this

bakalava · 08/01/2023 11:08

She has stood back let him reveal to a global audience that he is not quite the catch many of them believed him to be. However, it begs the question 'What did she see in Harry, the petulant, angry, immature manchild with a £30m trust fund?'
Most of all, if either of them had any real regard for the interests of their children then they would never have gone there. If money is all that matters to someone, they may well believe that the best thing they can give their kids is a big mansion with security guards and say something to the effect of: "We went through all that hell to give you this, kids" but the argument is nonsense.

No.
The whole navel-gazing and re-examining his entire life (and every single interaction with William, Kate, Charles) and rewriting history where he is always victimised by his family coincided with MM entering his life.
She turned him from a spoiled, partying lad into a paranoid, angry shell of a human. He is now somehow convinced his whole life up until he met her was a lie and everyone is out to get him.

This. She's created this.

Florissant · 08/01/2023 11:17

No. Disliked her from the start and still dislike her.

TeaMistress · 08/01/2023 11:17

No. My opinion has not changed towards her. We can be pretty sure that she has approved the book contents given that her mouthpiece is posting pages of the book on twitter. She is complicit in this.

Shodan · 08/01/2023 11:18

No.

I think even she might have been a bit surprised to discover quite how much of a dick he is, but I believe she's a very manipulative woman who picked him as a leg up to the position she thinks she deserves.

I think she's actually a very shrewd woman-her disingenuousness is quite sickening.

She'll likely get where she wants to be, but probably without Harry in tow. He'll outlive his usefulness to her in the next few years, I'd wager, and then it'll be divorce.

valleyplaza · 08/01/2023 11:19

I don't feel sorry for either of them, but I think she will come out on top when the whole thing implodes.

KonTikki · 08/01/2023 11:20

Singularly, she is poisonous.
Together, they are toxic.

She'll dump him eventually when he is no longer of any use. Under Californian divorce laws she'll be laughing all the way to the Bank.

Her vendetta against the institution of the RF will run and run.

I don’t think anyone who genuinely loved and cared for Harry would have let him publish his book in its present form. His vulnerability and stupidity is being exploited for money, to wring out every last dime.

I don’t think Harry and Meghan is the soul mate deep love we have been led to believe.

I don’t think Harry and Meghan is the soul mate deep love we have been led to believe.

Some of us believed it at the beginning - and it was likely true then.

However a soul mate / deep love - brings out the best in you not the worst. We have seen someone unravel in a toxic relationship (both are toxic).

Even the notion that a middled aged divorcee had to explicitly tell you in orchestrated black and white photos and a 6 hr doc that their love story is so extra special tells you all you need to know.

Blip · 08/01/2023 11:26

I think Meghan has failed to stop Harry putting a Taliban target on their children's backs. That could have huge consequences.

For people who say they take security seriously so many of their actions are completely at odds with this.

BethJ62 · 08/01/2023 11:27

I wonder how their security team feel about his revelations?

Eustonia · 08/01/2023 11:30

I think Buckingham Palace did a cracking job for many years disguising Harry’s awful behaviour and personality. I feel sorry for Meghan being married to this utter idiot and man child.

Curledupwithagoodbook · 08/01/2023 10:47

How can anyone's opinion have changed due to the book when it's not on sale yet?
Other than some 'highlights' in the media, unless you're Spanish, none of us have read it.

Because H&M have since directly released 2 pages to the public to provide the context on the kill number so that they can form their own opinion and many have.

Lindy2 · 08/01/2023 11:38

My opinion of her has lessened and it wasn't at all high to begin with.

Frankly, they are a pair of completely self absorbed idiots.

themessygarden · 08/01/2023 11:38

I actually do have some sympathy for her.

Right from the very beginning it appears she was not given the full truth about him. 'Is he kind?' she asked the person who set them up on a blind date.

This is the man who waited until his wife was pregnant with their first child, when she was suicidal, to tell her that years previously someone had asked about the potential colour of their childs skin. WTF.

Did he say that to her during an argument? Was it when he was high on gas and air in the labour room?

He is showing himself as a nasty piece of work.

JimHensonWasAGenius · 08/01/2023 11:38

Yes mine has.

I think even less of her than I did before.

Ohnonevermind · 08/01/2023 11:39

I think Meghan thought releasing Harry from his family would be a good thing. I think he has really struggled and I don’t know how a therapist could have allowed him to participate in a book in that frame of mind.

I feel sorry Meghan having to deal with this mess, but she has walked though it with him and hasn’t seen the danger either in his comments or thought they’ve shown them in a good light, so perhaps she’s too close to the story too to have perspective

He comes across terribly in this book, but we will have to just wait and see how he seems in the interviews.

It does have a touch of Kim Kardasian Kayne West about the whole thing.

i do worry that Harry has pinned a PR target on their backs.

Curledupwithagoodbook · 08/01/2023 11:41

Somebatshitteryonhere · 08/01/2023 10:49

Because nearly every single interesting part is quoted in the press. No need to read it. It is certainly not just some highlights, it’s even on the news!

We'll, how do you know nearly every single interesting part is quoted? I think there are over 500 pages.

It's impossible to form a rounded view when there's no context to any of it, just soundbites. Otherwise he might as well not have bothered with a whole book, and just used twitter.

They don’t care about your views about them. The British Media has seen to that. Those that buy into the British Media’s narrative are dust to them. So save your energy. They do not factor you into their “who shall we try to impress” discussions.

Of course she did 🙄

I wouldn't believe anything that came from her spin machine.

If they didn’t care , what’s the point of the interviews , reality show , books ?
