The markel family interview

[IamSuperTired]

Anyone know how/where I can watch it? :) I think it's on today ....

Totally agree with @skullbabe last comment.

@MrsMaxDeWinter

Meghan’s friends trashed him in People and discussed the letter, (apparently Meghan knew nothing about that 😀😀😀 I don’t think anyone buys that anymore)

Imagine being trashed like that in public . What would anyone do.

He was prodded into releasing the letter. I think he still hoped to reconcile at that point which is why he sat on the letter until then

Well, as a white woman the experiences of DD and my black friends are the best education I have about lived experiences of racism. So of course I reference them

Great posts from you @MrsMaxDeWinter

As far as Carole Malone, she is a regular on the chat circuit and honestly is really objectionable. She hates immigrants (they should be grateful to live on a shitty barge), Doctors (they're just in it for the money) Unions (they are all spiteful and nasty), the civil service blob (they're lazy and entitled - all of them), H&M (too many constant insults she spews out to pick one)
There's far more but I'll leave it there.

Well done Meghan for cutting off your toxic family who just want to make money off you.

You haven't read the book. You said so

The medical evidence is that stress is not a factor in miscarriage. Meghan might believe that it is, of course

Why release it to the Daily Mail then? Why not social media?

Dosh.
Lots of it.
Brother went on Australian Big Brother didn't he? Again talking about Meghan endlessly and cashing in
They are all dreadful and how anyone can defend them, god knows

Why the Daily Mail?

Like I said I know you don’t mean to come across that way.

Tom Markle to the media:

Meghan is ignoring me! I lied to her, and admit it. I tried to ruin her wedding and admitted it on Australian television. I didn't even tell her I was not coming, but I told TMZ!

Tom Markle to the media:

Meghan is still ignoring me.

Tom Markle to the media:

I will do an interview a month until she talks to me.

Friends to People magazine:

This is who our friend Meghan is. She has not been ignoring her father. In fact, we know that she wrote her father a letter in which she expressed concern about him and also asked him to stop talking to the press.

Tom Markle to the media:

This is a lie! She expressed no concern. Here is the letter. How much will you pay to publish it but redact all that stuff about her concern and the tabloids?

Tom Markle to the media:

Meghan is suing the DM. I am happy to be a witness against my daughter.

Mumsnet:

Aw bless. He was just exercising his right to reply.

Thanks - I think? Not sure about the sub-text, or whether there is a sub-text....

On the nose 🤣

I haven’t seen the Markle interview nor have any desire to do so. However on the face of it isn’t it similar to H&M talking negatively about the RF on OW & in the book Spare (which I have read for book club!) I’ve not seen the NF series so can’t comment on that.

Personally I wouldn’t have done any of the Markle stuff or H&M things but horses for courses.

@KrasiTime if you haven’t seen it how can you compare?

@KrasiTime you are stepping into troubled waters! unless you, worship at the shrine of the sainted Meghan you are irredeemably racist!

Thats why I said on the face of it? Maybe didn’t make myself clear enough. And from what I’ve read on here. But as I said it’s just don’t criticise one side & not the other.

On the face of it to me they look as bad as each other. I feel the same about Charles & Diana interviews which I’m old enough to remember!

@KrasiTime

I agree with you.

You racist, you 😂

See it’s comments like this that make people uncomfortable with your constant ‘references’ to your black DD & your black friends. You mock and make snide remarks about racism far too often for someone who is white raising a black child. It’s very very uncomfortable for the women of colour on this board to listen to you constantly lead conversations on race because of your connections to black people while you minimise and dismiss, and even joke about racism. There’s so much you are just not getting at all.

'people' i.e. you?

What we do know is that Meghan's dad and half sister bad mouth Meghan a lot. Why do they need to constantly say negative things about Meghan and tell the world, and why has Samantha written a bitchy nasty book about Meghan. It's very telling about them - regular families don't behave in such a toxic way.

Meghan's dad might also be ill and looking old and I can understand the temptation to feel sorry for him but be careful who you pity. When you pity you drop your guard and let the Trojan horse back in so to speak. Its right to hold a father to account for betraying his daughter in this awful way. Meghan is right to keep her distance.

@mixedrecycling so far on this thread alone myself @MrsMaxDeWinter & @skullbabe but plenty more on other threads, as you know. Do you care your mocking racism makes us uncomfortable? It would be odd for the mother of a black child to laugh and mock us about racism. To say the least.

So you have an untalented , wealthy 'prince' with a spendy, untalented wife with saviour pretensions, enthusiastically monetizing his title. Beneath that, you have her scheming family members cashing in on her notoriety. It is a pyramid scheme in which nobody paints themselves in glory.

I don’t dispute that at all @Inkanta

i personally wouldn’t have done any of the Markle staff, C&D or H&M. It’s not in my nature despite some of my family!

I think it’s equally as bad but a father to betray his dd - too much for me. The rest are all as bad as each other.

I don’t get how people can venerate H&M for ‘their truth’ but not the Markle siblings for doing the same!
