The royal family

Why is Meghan hated?

I have very strong views about the Royals especially Camilla, however I am genuinely interested and want to find out more as to why Meghan Markle seems to be so hated. I'm asking in case there is something I have missed. I do read up as much as I can and watch shows from 'both sides' of the argument, but there is nothing that I have seen so far that warrants the level of sheer hatred geared towards her - I don't mean on here necessarily, but on social media in general. She cannot do ANYTHING without a swarm of people descending on her like vampires to tear her apart.

She isn't an adulteress, she's not a paedophile or sex offender, she isn't lazy, she seems to genuinely care about people in need.....and from what has been shown, she genuinely loves Harry and is just trying to make a life with him. He left the UK to start a life away from a nest of some awful people, his mother died when he was 12, his uncle is a sex offender, there is racism and a rigid set of rules within that family where he won't be king anyway so what is wrong with him leaving?

I'm not starting this to start an argument I am genuninely interested in why she is so rabidly disliked and why? Maybe I will start to feel differently if there is more of a reason but at the moment I cannot see one?

Racism.

UK is still a racist country, never mind Harry DARING to leave the "fold"...

It should be Andrew who people should be disgusted with....

I think that's really unfair of you to be so judgmental about a person you've never met and know nothing about, except what you've seen online, on TV and in the papers. I mean, have you actually met Trump? do you know him personally? Wink

What on earth are you talking about? I literally just told you I have no opinion on Trump as a person, just his politics.

He's a politician. He's the leader of one of the most powerful nations on Earth. Why would I need to have met him to or know anything about him as a person to judge his policy decisions?

Absolutely feeble attempt at a 'gotcha' 😅

Love this!!!

Them: Do you have an opinion on Donald Trump?

Me: No.

Them: I think it's terrible that you have an opinion on Donald Trump when you've never met him!

Which bit do you love?

Well, when I asked you if you had an opinion on him, you commented on your dislike for sex pests. I’m assuming you did that as you consider him a sex pest, otherwise why would you have included that in your answer. And I asked you why you considered him a sex pest- was it through what you’ve seen online, in papers and on tv? Because if it is, that’s apparently not a valid opinion, according to you. But I note you didn’t answer my question.

Really? You are completely neutral on Trump? That’s pretty unusual….

chunkybear · 16/10/2025 06:21

None of us (hopefully!!) have ever met Prince Andrew, yet many people defending Meghan go on about him and his alleged sexual exploits, but he’s not been convicted and we don’t know, so why are you mentioning him in defence of Meghan?

Why is it racist to call out someone’s bad behaviour?

The press did NOT suggest her pregnancy was fake however they did carry articles about the trolls who said this. Defending her wouldn't you say ?

I’m not quite sure what you mean by this post. I am saying that the MSM did NOT print stories about her fake pregnancies, which you obviously agree with 🤔

My almost daily reminder that Harry didn’t want to leave . He flounced off but is now desperate to get back ( something his wife seems determined to thwart)

jumpingthehighjump · 16/10/2025 08:00

Of course Harry wanted to leave and it was the best decision he made. And of course he doesn't want to come back and live here.

Here we go again . He has openly said he wants reconciliation, misses his family etc and NO he didn’t want to leave ; he wanted his cake and eat it .

But she isn’t royal. She’s married to someone who was born royal but that’s it. So what other royals do and what Meghan Markle does aren’t going to be comparable.

interesting, so that means Kate and Sophie are not royals

chunkybear · 16/10/2025 09:49

Absolutely @Mylovelygreendress … they flounced like petulant spoilt brats

Not been convicted but there's a story about Virginia Giuffre in the news today and she had written a book outlining how much she was paid for sleeping with Andrew at the age of 17. He even likened her to his daughters, he's vile.Virginia died by suicide partly due to how she was treated by Andrew. The ONLY reason he wasn't convicted is because of who he is.

I am not defending Andrew in any shape or form but he was not the only one involved in this despicable thing.,

binkie163 · 16/10/2025 11:42

I am not defending A but to suggest he is partly to blame for her suicide is naughty. He is a despicable twat but you can't just go round making those sorts of accusations. By all accounts she was seriously unstable, due to an unhappy life I have no doubt but something being in a book does not make it true....you only have to see H's spare and Omid scobie books to know how much bollocks people can get away with in publishing. She is also not here to defend what is in the book and if she wrote it. Where were the grieving family when she was alive and needed support? Nowhere to be seen. Although I expect they have profited from her unfortunate death.
No criminal case has been brought because the CPS said there wasn't enough evidence to support a prosecution, hence it was a civil case.
I haven't read Lownies book on the yorks, did he go into the guiffre allegations?

I don't think it's naughty at all. If he isn't partly to blame, who is??? Epstein certainly....and A is part of it.

I'm reading the Lownie book now so I will let you know if and when she is mentioned.

It sounds very much like defending Andrew. Her grieving family have supported her and only this morning I saw an interview with her brother talking about the book. And he gave an exclusive interview to Laura Kuensberg on Sunday.
To suggest she didn't write it, is unfair in my opinion.

Could you link to any articles that substantiate your claim that she was not supported by her family?

I have read the Lownie book, I can't remember the references, I will have to go and check.
I was too busy being astounded by Andrew and Sarah and their appalling behaviour over decades... unchecked by anyone.

No criminal case has been brought because the CPS said there wasn't enough evidence to support a prosecution, hence it was a civil case.

There is far more to it than that. No criminal case was brought against Andrew in the US, it was a civil case. The Met decided not to investigate further, hence no case here. Course they decided that 😒. There was no civil case in the UK

And of course you give £10million plus to someone you've never met... 😒

Naanspiration · 16/10/2025 12:41

I used to think it was just casual racism.

But I actually dislike her because she's so fucking cringe. Everything she says on her shows are so cringe and fake.

She's too American for us, we prefer out royals to stfu and have a bit of restraint.

But also alot of the hate is fuelled by race and class.

Great comments. Backs up my opinion on most of the royals that they can get away with literally anything. Ghislane Maxwell was jailed, Epstein died in jail, and now the Epstein files are being released. I would hedge a bet that others will go to jail, but it certainly won't be presidents or princes. And it is all indirectly related to how Meghan is treated and perceived because oh well we couldn't possibly send a prince to prison for sex offences, or prosecute a 98 year old husband of the monarch for causing a near fatal accident and we will overlook all of Charles' misdemeanours because he is now the king, Heaven forbid we criticise or imprison anyone who is a senior royal!!! So we will focus on the girl who is a little bit annoying and blame it all on her - la de da!

A long clip from the book.

https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/oct/15/prince-andrew-virginia-giuffre-abuse-epstein-maxwell

It's very detailed. How anyone can dispute it wasn't written by Guiffre I do not know

What was her father thinking 🤷‍♀️

RainbowBagels · 16/10/2025 13:31

I mean her father was hawking her out to the nearest rich bloke as a 'masseuse' from the age of 14, making her exactly the type of person vulnerable to predators like Maxwell and Epstein so ' support from her family' is neither here nor there. Its thecsame MO as the grooming gangs here. Take a vulnerable girl with poor or no family support, ply them with gifts and money and you can pretend they have given informed consent to being passed round disgusting men 20- 30 years their senior.

binkie163 · 16/10/2025 13:36

I am sure a lot of stuff will be covered in it answering a lot of questions. It has been ghost written and she is no longer here to support the finished article or challenge it.

Let's not forget she also recruited young girls to become prostitute's, she admits that. As sad as her life was, she was not blameless. She grew up in foster homes so it's no secret her parents abandoned her. She also lived with a family friend Ron Eppinger who was a pimp. Beasts like Epstein can spot vulnerable youngsters. Her dad drove her to Epstein's house the first time.
I come from a highly dysfunctional family both parents alcoholic, I left home at 17.
Not all kids from shit homes choose prostitution, some of us work hard and have successful careers and businesses. I had a friend who from age 15-25 did hand jobs on London commuter train she built an impressive property portfolio, married a wealthy man, never regretted it.
I had never heard of her brother until she died, he/her family are challenging her children inheriting her whole estate so I am afraid that colours my view of his intentions.
