Why Hollywood Keeps Quitting on Prince Harry and Meghan Markle (hollywoodreporter.com)

Why’d they all leave? What explains the churn? “Everyone’s terrified of Meghan,” claims a source close to the couple. “She belittles people, she doesn’t take advice. They’re both poor decision-makers, they change their minds frequently. Harry is a very, very charming person — no airs at all — but he’s very much an enabler. And she’s just terrible.”

Would you work for Harry and Meghan? Ex-employees say run away.

Now she is teaching little girls in far away countries to curtsy for her and call her ma'am. Hypocritical so and so.

The hypocrisy is an absolute phenomenon, isn't it? And there's also Meghan's mission to 'help girls and women find their voice(s)'. I wonder how that works with her horrendous work-place bullying, not only in Montecito or KP, but also clear for all to see on the Fiji Market video, where her main aide is on the point of tears throughout.

When I comment about M & H on these boards, I make it a rule to refer only to what I've read that they've said, or heard them say in interviews or from what they've put out in their documentary and in 'Spare'. I try to stick to irrefutable facts, or to what comes out of their own mouths. But that doesn't mean I haven't got an opinion already...and I'm afraid I got the heeby-jeebies right from the start - when I saw Meghan at the time of her engagement, even. I couldn't have put my finger on it then, but for me she has always exuded mean-girl vibes and has since proved herself to be a text-book narcissist. That's why I'm endlessly fascinated by her - she gets away with SO much, is idolised by her dim, needy and brainwashed admirers, and yet to me she just radiates nastiness. What are these fans seeing (or not seeing) that is so obvious to her critics??

Smirke · 14/09/2024 18:55

Her employees, collaborators, ex-partners and ex-friends "are they silent or silenced" by the NDAs?

Where are their voices. She needs to attend to behaviours closer to home.

I am sorry for your loss, I don’t doubt it is a life changing event. I do though think he’s exploiting his mother. All the years before Meghan he wasn’t talking about her at every opportunity the way he has post meeting M. It’s fishy to me and I’m not convinced it’s coming from a genuine place. I think it’s a mix of his wife picking that scab plus the potentially lucrative offers with the constant reminders that he is Diana’s son, lest we forget.

Thank you and honestly I am fine, happily and as well adjusted as most people. It simply irritates me when people use it to somehow justify what Harry does. His behaviour is wrong. He knows the difference between right and wrong. He knows he is lying.he knows he is falsely accusing his family as he didn’t get his own way, or to protect his wife. It is a deliberate act to lie and abuse.

we habe to stop excusing people who suffer trauma from deliberate wrong doing. Harry is electing to behave as he is.

eceryone has a story, every single one of us. At some point personal responsibility kicks in, and we are long past that point with Harry.

I suspect PH will now have a few last minute cancellations for his boys weekend away - especially if Backgrid were on stand-by to snap all the hilarity....who's happy to be associated with this?

It seems a bit odd to me that he’s spending his actual birthday at home with Meghan and the kids not doing much presumably, and then going off on a lads jaunt . Why don’t they go on a lovely holiday as a family? He’s 40 and a family man.

Smirke · 14/09/2024 18:41

I am sorry for your loss. I also lost a parent suddenly at 6 years old and then immediately lost the other to collapsed MH for years thereafter after. I know this damaged my emotional development, emotional regulation and left me vulnerable to MH episodes in my teens and early 20s. I have done a lot of work since and can muddle through especially as I have stable emotionally healthy DH, friends and family.

But I can see PH unresolved trauma playing out - IMHO it explains his behaviour but never excuses it. He was unlucky to meet someone also very damaged who has not helped him heal and grow but in fact regressed him emotionally and re-triggers his trauma.

I’m sorry for what you’ve been through, and I understand what you’re seeing, but I honestly think Harry is simply lacking intelligence, vindicarive, spiteful and easily led. I do not beleive if Diana was still alive he would be a different man, I think this is who he is. And irrelevant of child hood traumas, it’s who he was always going to be.

and Megan has egged him on, amplified his darkest thoughts. But what that man has done, selling his family out. Lying about them. Is heinous. And he alone is responsible for that. For lying about his own family for money.

I think when you’re that rich you can go on holiday any time you please. Anywhere you please. It’s not a big deal.

Maybe they aren't 'together'

Also with this bombshell report, interview and now global media explosion - surely she will be weeping and wailing on the floor and will need her white knight to stay behind to comfort her.....surely he cant go off on a jolly jaunt with the lads now?

Sparklywhiteteeth · 14/09/2024 19:12

they knew it was coming out too, as the Hollywood reporter asked for a comment. I can only imagine the sort of shitty interrogation the staff had to go through as they try to find out who talked.

im expecting another resignation imminently. Someone is happily on their way out and gave Megan a hard kick as they were at it; whomever the Senior member of staff was. That’s someone about to resign.

I 100% agree with you - his behaviour is absolutely dispicable.

I just read The Times today Harry at 40 - and it says he believes that he 'has now said his piece' so they should all be up for a reconcilation....

He has zero undertstanding or care of the deep emotional hurt he has caused many family members over many years. There is no indication that he should retract or apologise.

He's delusional and emotionally stunted - grandiose, entitled and self centred.

That's why I said god help the rest of the staff now, @Sparklywhiteteeth; we've seen all too often how both behave when things don't go their way and the atmosphere in that workplace now doesn't bear thinking about

And you got there before me @Smirke in wondering whether this'll affect Harry's plans to go away with his friends ... after all if this doesn't cause weeping floor collapses I don't know what would

Exactly, it sounds like the main celebration for his birthday is the lads holiday. Which seems weird as he goes to such lengths to make out he loves being a dad and is a family man.

Maybe it was Doria !!!

Or maybe even MM planted it to sabotage PH lads trip - sort of thing loony abusive partner would do.

Who knows, @Smirke? I've long since given up on expecting anything even vaguely rational from these two Hmm

JSMill · 14/09/2024 19:35

I think it's odd that when H gave a statement about his feelings about turning 40, he talked about his children but not his wife. That's surely unusual for any married person but it's really strange for someone who gave up a lot for his wife and knows how these statements are analysed and picked apart by the media.

Mummyoflittledragon · 14/09/2024 19:39

isthereaway · 14/09/2024 17:35

I think it's both. Love IS blind. Plus he has invested everything into this r'ship.
I also think that his 'knight in shining armour' blind spot is a result of what he observed re his Mother & the press & the RF before she tragically died when he was only 10. I think that has, inevitably, cast an incredibly long shadow for H.

He was 12. Not an easy age but a little older than 10.

PigglyWigglyOhYeah · 14/09/2024 19:47

Prepared to bet that there will be some sort of pap walk/show off thing while he is away. 'Meghan meets girlfriends for dinner' etc, eith pictures of her skulking about, merching camel hair coats and posh bags.

Who would have thought of all news outlets the Hollywood Reporter would have been the one to blow this open?

The words "Hoist" "petard" "own" and "with" come to mind.

Abouttimeforanamechange · 14/09/2024 20:00

Will be interesting to see who else is on this 'lads' holiday', if we're ever told.

Genuine friends of Harry, with whom he has history and things in common?

Or a carefully curated selection of 'friends' from polo playing, showbiz and influencer circles?

This interview with MM agent of many years published in 2018 I always thought said an awful lot reading between the lines.

Of all these character traits were in a man he'd be held in the highest regard going.

Misogynistic tripe. Meghan is far too smart for the royals in this country.

Unfortunately she is not immune from the hateful press.

The video of the editor in chief today says someone still there. High up. Someone has given her a kick, you don’t do that and stay. So someone about to resign in the coming weeks.

Well the that includes the hateful American press then doesn’t it?
