Kate, until recently, did all that dutifully under a female monarch.
But debating any possible sexism within that role does not negate the fact that Meghan was here for 5 mins, took a tax-payer funded extravaganza of a wedding to invite her Hollywood pals and I’ll take a royal title thank you very much, bullied the staff, talked disrespectfully to a SIL she barely knew, realised the houses she was offered weren’t palatial enough, the muggles weren’t ‘grateful’ enough for her ‘sacrifice’ then decided she hated us all and fucked off.
Then publicly lied about it all. With sad puppy dog eyes.
So no, it isn’t sexism. Or racism. It’s a natural antipathy toward narcissistic behaviours.
Well put, UWhat.
I can only speak for myself, but I was slow to the party with the original news of H & M's romance. I didn't pick up that she was mixed-race for a while, in fact.
I took half-a minute's look/listen...and judged. Phoney, whiney, fake, sweet/sickly, self-obsessed, cutesy...NO THANK YOU, MA'AM!
I don't know if any of that counts as racist/sexist...I doubt it. But possibly shows my cynicism about celebrities? Also, Californian psychobabbling and over confidence?? More likely, I think.
