Hollywood Reporter - Meghan and Harry

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.”

Seems she wanted a lot of coddling herself though, hence her pathetic not a lot of people have asked me if I’m ok, no one helped me learn the lines of the British national anthem (even though I learn lines for a living, I’ve got ears and I’m a strong independent woman), I don’t know how to curtsey (but y’all better curtsey for me).

Meghan did some department store campaign before she met Harry but whilst she was doing Suits. I read an anecdote from the lady who was employed to do her pedicure. Meghan had arranged her own make up artist who she was very very friendly with. Whilst they were chatting either Meghan or the make up artist joked about something and they were all laughing, the lady doing her nails then joined in the conversation and got really obviously iced out - pointedly and frostily ignored. She said she had never experienced that before on a shoot.

There comes a point when multiple people are saying the same thing that you have to believe it.

This is a fascinating and forensic review of media planting from MM from right back at the start of their dating in 2016. Really interesting to read Lainy Gossip blog from that time describing PH psyche / character of becoming entrenched in issues and doubling down - obviously it was MM who relayed that observation and then went on to exploit it by whipping him up throughout to become her white knight whilst she performed her damsel in distress shtick time and time again. He's been a played like a fiddle. Explains his neurosis and bitter behaviour but doesnt ever excuse it.

We know how the squad would react to a single allegation of bullying against Kate in the worst thought of gossip rag on the planet. It would be taken as absolute truth and we'd never hear the end of it.

Whole blazing bonfires creating smoke about Meghan and noooo not true, nothing to see here.

I totally agree with you. As the HR article reads, Harry has enabled her.

The Lainey Gossip and planting stories information is pretty shocking and too coincidental not to be true. It’s all starting to unravel.

Oh wouldn't you love to know Angela Kelly's views on Meghan but, sadly, we'll never know as she had to sign a watertight NDA with TRF when she left Windsor after the LQE2 died.

Whoops wrong video - meant to post this one that I was referring to:

s

I’d love for her to write a book and have it sit with the publishers until the time comes when it can be published posthumously @DillyWest.

I am sure TRF could amend the details of the NDA if they wished to make public specific info.

Lainey is another nasty mean bitch bully, you can see why she is friends with Meghan Markle and Scobie.

She has always been mean about Catherine, who could forget her Kate Waldo attacks on a woman who had pleaded for privacy after undergoing major surgery. Whenever she is twisting a negative story about H&M into a positive spin, she will always preface it with something like, 'oh of course the British tabloids are making this a negative' blah, blah.

I was shocked to read that she was complimentary about Catherine and Williams recent family video, very strange indeed.

She regularly quotes The Hollywood Reporter, but so far crickets about the article on Harry and Meghan bullying. Anytime she quotes a People article she will mention how it is celeb friendly and celeb favourite for putting out positive PR, yet she never mentions that when she is reporting a People Meghan story.

She is the most biased and nasty gossiper on the internet today. The Sussex Squad love her, birds of a feather and all that.

She's also moved out of her grace and favour home and I think Charles has bought her a home. Don't take that as gospel, but I am sure I heard that somewhere recently.

Wow, @Smirke thanks for that youtube link, really interesting. She seems to be saying Harry leaked to the HR and the RF are starting to smooth the path for him to come back. Hmm.

Soho House connects all of it. Meghan, all her cronies (like Misan), the Giles Coran created rumour, Lainey Gossip, Eugenie, Sarah Ferguson....I sometimes wonder if a bunch of them got together and (for a laugh) hatched a plan to see if they could get someone into the Royal Family and fuck it up a bit.

Bye then.

Maybe he wont 'come back' - but I would imagine that they would want his reputation separated from MM - basically as it is a risk to the RF reputation and if there were a divorce they would want to avoid any nasty public fall out?

But I cant see that they could do any of this without his consent?

@Americanpseudoroyaltorture sourced and posted the link originally. But its quite an insight on very many layers from the publishers, the Toronto scene, the bloggers, PH weak spots identified and exploited very early on in the relationship - all in writing at the time from the blogger. Very damning.

I wonder what Tom Bradby thinks of them now. Harry was quite frosty to him in the last interview he did with Harry.

If others know this then the RF also know it. They are keeping their keg dry methinks.

I'm thinking the same. And looking at what the Palace PR managed to do with Diana, in the weeks and months before her death, painting a popular princess as a mad, clingy woman moving from one man to the next, I fear Meghan will be in for a bumpy ride.

I'm no fan of hers, but misogyny will mean that she will get the bad press and enabler/equally culpable Harry will be excused.

She seems to be saying Harry leaked to the HR.

I think she is wrong about that, to be honest. I really do think it has come from ex employees and current employees. .

Samantha Cohen slightly lifted the lid on it earlier this year in an interview, when she was asked about the bullying, while she declined to comment on it, she was able to confirm she was one of 10 employees interviewed.

But then she dropped into the conversation

“I was only supposed to stay for six months but stayed for 18 – we couldn’t find a replacement for me and when we did we took them on tour to Africa with Harry and Meghan to show them the ropes but they left (quit) as well while in Africa,” she said.'

I know what you mean - but I'm not sure it would be purely misogyny from the RF in that case - more because Meghan is the outsider and Harry the RF member, as with Diana - but in terms of the press, misogyny will surely be the result..

I hope that any reconciliation with Harry would only be a private, family one. I don't want to see him doing royal duties, thank you! But I don't think he'd ever be allowed to - he's clearly a huge security risk. I see a very unsatisfactory future for him, stuck in a limbo between his children in the US and a little cottage somewhere on a royal estate, with no role or focus in his life. His credibility will be completely shot and he won't be a young man any more, so I'm not sure his old patronages such as Invictus would want him.

I don't want Harry becoming a working royal either. He should be kept at arm's length. He is completely untrustworthy, and there is no guarantee he and Meghan won't remain in cahoots, even after separation (look at Andrew and Sarah Ferguson).

I'm thinking the same. And looking at what the Palace PR managed to do with Diana, in the weeks and months before her death, painting a popular princess as a mad, clingy woman moving from one man to the next, I fear Meghan will be in for a bumpy ride.

Alternatively, no longer protecting her from her own bad behaviour becoming public knowledge. That's not synonymous with misogyny.

My moneys on Doria, she's had enough 😂

I would say the chances of Harry ever returning to being a working Royal are absolutely nil. He wasn’t a working Royal before he became engaged to Meghan either. He focused on Invictus and became involved in Heads Together for a short while , but wasn’t doing engagements as such. My guess is he’ll go back to a similar life in a modest house and will be kept well below the radar.

She sounds like the ultimate mean girl

I don't know if you'd like to try this, @MummyJ12, but for years I've made a habit of covering the face in their photos and just looking at the eyes

I find it reveals a hell of a lot, especially when the put-on grins don't reach those eyes, and it's hard to improve on somebody on here who once described the expression as "vulpine"

As you'll probably know I avoid commenting on appearances and am well aware that snapshots are just that, but when practically every one tells the same story it's difficult not to notice
