It's not good news for Meghan. The podcast by Meghan is out of the Spotify 100 in the US and the UK. With Apple it's not even in the top 200 chart.

Didn’t she say she met Ellen DeGeneres in a dog rescue and it was Ellen who told her to choose a particular dog, Ellen said she had no recollection of it. I wouldn’t be surprised if that was another made up fantasy story.

What are Meghan and Harry without royal titles, though? Nothing.
They desperately need to keep them, and for the children as well.

What are any royals without titles. Nothing. If titles have bene given and taken away then why cant the public be be allowed to decide who gets them instead so we can have people on the roles who are going to work hard and do public service thay actually achieves something.

This is the reason why titles won’t be taken away from anyone. If they started taking them away from family members who weren’t toeing the line what’s to say the public won’t start demanding they are taken away from members they don’t like. It isn’t a popularity contest born a Prince/princess will always be one. The married ins are the ones who should worry as they can easily be taken from them.

She needs a spreadsheet to keep track of what she says . These are the 2 videos where she lies about meeting Yasmeen Bleeth . Tbh , I don't believe either of them.

It feels like she felt unseen & ‘brushed off’ in childhood & didn’t receive the special attention she felt she deserved. In Africa a similar sentiment ‘no one asked’. She’s very charismatic, pulling people in. Jamie looks to be very drawn to her for example. Gwyneth a fan or why appear with her (?)

Her father seemed to give her plenty of attention, although I'm not sure if she lived with her mother.

If you have a royal title and you work for the institution and represent the UK, fine.
If you just want to be a rich celebrity, make money from trashing the RF, but still monetise your connection, I think that's hypocritical and dishonest.

I didn't see this to be the case, I'm not exactly sure what Jamie's facial expression was when she was listening to Meghan , but to me she looked sceptical and a bit disdainful.

I wonder if feeling ‘lesser than’ in her private school triggered feelings of inadequacy and ruthless ambition. The latter admirable if channelled right. Her father wanted the best for her but this, her mother’s absence (if true), & glossy classmates popping off club class in hols & living in multi million homes may have made her feel she had to ‘prove it’. Status & beauty will have counted too much.

Who knows. She's a 43 year old woman with more wealth and privilege than most could dream of. She needs to live in the present.

It’s all relative I guess. Looking across at Gwyneth’s mansion & empire perhaps & feeling ‘I’ll show them’ rather than counting your blessings. ‘Ambition’ is a positive but the flipside? She’s damaged I think. She’s using the gifts she’s got & initial huge charisma to get what she wants: visibility, recognition, success…

Profhilodisaster · 02/05/2025 07:58

Something in her childhood has definitely damaged her, I have a bit of second hand experience with trauma children and it doesn't matter if the outside world can't see why they are damaged (but you were so privileged, you went to a good school etc) it's how they feel.
She needs a shit load of therapy tbh but I think victim hood is too ingrained now for it to work.

and she would have been calling herself Rachel at that age, she didn’t start using Meghan until she got to college. The lies just pour from her.

I suspect you’re right & the ‘right’ therapy could help. I fear a real danger is with her own children, a warning sign (if true) the avalanche of prepared emails. Newsflash. They’ll likely be critical teens, giving it to her with both guns & they’ll know the achilles heel/s. They’ll be over on the ‘stately homes’ thread best case :) IF not scared to death.

’Mom you sent us emails but we were raised by nannies. Why didn’t you sell the mansion & spend every day with us in CA sunshine after all if your love was greater & more extreme than any Mom before or since’…

If children transgress from her perceived ideals she may turn laser focused anger on them. I know someone like this & girls have been subjected to plastic surgery they were convinced they needed & brainwashed. Controlled & scared. Weighed in from teen years.

Someone said she ‘manifested’ Prince Harry & had a vision board on ‘all this’. Part of me does admire the ruthless ambition but it has a much darker side.

This ‘working Mom’ thing is it true she’ll be working fingers to bone with edits, supply chain, website, etc? And if not why is Jamie seemingly so taken in by her? She’s clearly no dim slouch. M must have planetary pull charisma.

I think Gwynny was taking the piss out of her. She saw that she’d gone a bit too far with her piss take reels so invited her over to damp it down a bit but the reel of them jointly, Gwyneth was front and centre with MM sat eating pie, smirking. There doesn’t seem to have been any contact since. Gwyneth can see through her and she is Hollywood royalty. MM is a mere wannabe over there.

this is obviously why very few people have the courage to give a real opinion officially!
Netflix should feel ashamed.

It isn’t a popularity contest born a Prince/princess will always be one. The married ins are the ones who should worry as they can easily be taken from them.

But a constitutional case could be made for taking the titles of a non direct line descendant, even more so for a non resident one. Nothing to do with popularity.

I think a case could also be made for removing the titles of royals shown to be actively seeking to damage the monarchy, but I appreciate that’s a more difficult to prove.

Harry is worse than Andrew in that respect, both immensely damaging to the brand but only one of them deliberately so.

Of the two of them I would rather lose Harry than Andrew, and that’s saying something.

That looks like a very desperate measure on Neltflix’s part. It certainly doesn’t indicate confidence in the product.

GailPlattsDeadHusband · 02/05/2025 09:14

I don't think they will issue letters patent to make only the heirs and heirs children entitled to HRH / Prince / Princess. They have to consider all eventualities. Say If Prince George decided to remain a bachelor or can't have children for whatever reason he would be succeeded by Princess Charlotte or her children. In this eventuality Charlotte's children could spend many years without a title but could then potentially inherit the throne.

The institution already considered the potential heir not having a title being an issue when William got married. That is why the Queen amended (?) or issued an new patent to ensure all his Children had HRH/Princess title when they where born.

I think the Danish version of a distinct separation of the Royal House / Royal Family is the best way forward.

This is mad! It got slated everywhere, are they going to go after them all? Surely Netflix wouldn’t do this if Meghan wasn’t pushing for it? The same Meghan who doesn’t read any media 🙄

For some reason my FYP on TikTok started showing me SS accounts (plenty of blocking and ignoring seems to have restored sanity and I'm back to bread, butter, dogs, pasta, gin, wine, travel and random weird funnies).

From the brief amount I saw the current script is that Meghan is sending her kids these emails to ensure they get the correct narrative of their lives growing up - and then won't believe the vicious and nasty UK tabloids lies. The cognitive dissonance needed to believe this actually hurts my brain.

Uh I get this, ones a bloke not sure where abouts he is from in the UK but he is pushing the theory that The Princess of Wales didn't have cancer, and that there is a big cover up, but, I don't know how to block, so he keeps popping up.

I think I've seen him too, and there's a woman who insists Catherine is now a body double and everything about the Mull trip was photoshopped. They walk amongst us truly.

To block on TT you need to go to their profile, click the arrow like thing and then it gives you a list of options, and one of them is block.

The easiest way to avoid them is to scroll past really fast and then watch loads of the type of videos you want to see. It's not always obvious what they are though.

Thank you, I will do that the next time he pops up, there was also some American woman I think, who was going crazy over the suit Prince William wore to the pope's funeral, because it was a dark blue, she was fuming, calling him a piece of shit, like he was the only one wearing blue, like you said, these people walk amongst us and I will be blocking more now.
