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?

Ok sure -

"Suddenly, there is panic -

American actress enters the fold of one of the most protected and revered institutions in the world. She has no blue blood, no inside information on the royals and has never been exposed to their lifestyle. There have been no chit chats around the breakfast table, no hush hush secrets to air because the insiders already know!

Oh no! Says Charles - who will soon be king - I'm a dirty adulterer who must deflect deflect away from driving my first wife insane and very possibly being involved in her death! I wanted to be my mistress' tampon and or trousers once! I kill animals and pretend I love conservation work! I know Trump is a dirty felon and sex offender but I have to do what I'm told because I have no spine and will just blame everyone else to take the shine off me la de da! I go on and on about how much I care for humanity but I will ride over the homeless in my gold carriage tally ho!!! I'm an absolute buffoon but I have to make everyone think I'm decent - jolly hockey sticks! I shall turn it all around now that my dear Mama has gone as vengeance for Andrew being the favourite and make sure all my disgusting behaviour is forgotten and I shall rule the kingdom with my dirt bird of mistress as I have forseen!

Oh no! Thinks Uncle Andy I'm a dirty sex offender and given half a chance I will keep doing it, sure no one will ever find out! I wish someone would enter the fold to take the heat off me!

Oh no! says Camilla - oh shit, I know I'm no queen, I know I'm a pathetic mess who has never done a day's decent work in her life, but I have to continue to live in Diana's shadow and pretend to be a decent human being by getting off my arse once in a while and showing up at the odd event. I know William and Harry secretly hate me - and why wouldn't they - I desperately need to conspire to find a way to deflect the hatred off me as I have done with Diana....mmmm let me conjure up a most evil plan.....if only there was someone else to blame...

Oh no! Thinks Kate - she is prettier than me! Wills make it stop or I will throw a massive tantrum! I will not be outshone by anyone!!!
Oh no! Thinks Wills - now Harry might be more popular!
Oh no! says Harry - does she know about my Nazi uniform?
Oh no! says Princess Michael - I don't want a black woman in the palace I'm going to wear a racist brooch and pretend I didn't realise
Oh no! says Prince Philip bugger this another would be Diana, how can we control this? She might find out that I make racist remarks all the time and get away with it! How can we go hunting innocent animals now when she is a huge animal supporter? Damn it!

"Ah HA! They all but Harry and the Queen collectively say - Let's all blame THE NEW GIRL! That'll do it, she knows nothing anyway and it will be fantastic fun! With the heat on her we can continue to be paedos! And racists! And animal killers and oh - freeloaders!! On with it fuckwits!! (says Prince Philip!)

I just wrote a pantomime!!!! :)

Oh dear! 😳

Not obviously true at all. It would be very boring to long time posters on these threads to rehash all the evidence of how welcomed Meghan was as it’s been done so many, many times, so I won’t bother. Go away and do your homework.

I know everything that happened.

Yes she was extremely welcomed by the UK press writing that Harrys girl was nearly "straight out of Compton." They then wrote about all the crime in the area.

Then of course we had the news article about Meghan adding exotic Dna to the royal family etc etc

"Explained".
You can't explain racism.

Next? Yes, the next one is the time that the BBC broadcaster tweeted a joke about Meghan leaving the hospital with a chimpanzee. This was when she gave birth to her baby.

You cant explain that one love. The man who did it was fired

You're not making sense. He was fired. He was wrong. It was seen to be so. How does that fit in with the UK is racist if he was censured for it ?

It would be nice if you wrote something a little more intelligent, on the weighty topic of racism.

But I suppose a gif saying bingo, shows where you are at intellectually.

She still experienced racism in the UK.

That man being fired, doesn't mean that she didn't experience it , or was hurt by it.

We are talking about her experiencing racism in the U.K.

She did experience it.

The same thing happened when a black man married into the Norwegian Royal family recently.
The couple said that they experienced a huge amount of racism.

ozarina · 21/10/2025 15:53

No sorry you haven't.

If you are going to say I havent. You need to write which fact of mine is wrong.

You can't because you know that you are writing bullshit.

ozarina · 21/10/2025 15:59

You don't sound like the kind of poster I wish to engage with. You make sweeping statements full of exaggeration and you use derogatory language towards other posters. I won't waste my time.

Great. I dont want to engage with you either!

So that is fantastic!

You told me that my facts are wrong, then you can't point out a single fact that I got wrong. Haha

It is laughable really.

Danny Baker’s tweet was crass and vile and he deserved to be censured. But his intention was classist, not racist. If DB had been a racist, don’t you think that in his many years of mainstream broadcasting someone would have noticed, or spoken up about it later?

Comparing a mixed race baby to a chimpanzee is of course racist.

A teacher in the US has just got into trouble for calling a black child in her class "a monkey". She sang it in a song to him

You are the one that needs help.

Are you denying that there is racism in the UK? Dont you listen to other people's experiences.

I wemt to a discussion group recently. The black people in the group told us how they receive racist comments every month.

If you deny that there is racism in the UK, it says a lot about you

No one is denying there is racism in the UK, as there is in the US and many other countries. However, we are discussing Meghan Markle. Do you believe every mixed race person everywhere is subject to incessant racism? If you look beyond the fact that she is mixed race, there are a whole lot of other issues to discuss. As you see on this board.

There were an enormous number of people who complained about his sacking and felt he had been very unfairly treated. Including him.

How many is an 'enormous' number?

Marriner · 21/10/2025 17:05

Its not just racism with meghan. People don't like anyone "different" marrying into the royal family.

Its the fact that she is American too.

Its the same when princess martha louise in Norway married a black Shaman - shaman durek.

There was uproar that she married someone black and non norwegian.

They weathered the storm and they are still in love.

Rattlerange · 21/10/2025 17:06

Meghan married a racist.

It’s a bit rich complaining about racism, when the person you are about to marry has been racist in public on multiple occasions. It beggars belief, really, how Harry’s racism can be overlooked by Meghan and her super fans.

Letmeoutodhere · 21/10/2025 17:09

Actually I think the fact that she was so different appealed to loads of people, me included. It just turned out that her differences were not positive ones in the long run. She was completely unsuited to the role she took on and oblivious to the fact that her status required some forethought , humility and a willingness to listen and learn, not just talk about herself or babble on meaninglessly. When she found everything didn’t revolve around her she became very vindictive.
