Why is there more online vitriol towards Megan Markle than Andrew?

I find it ridiculous how there is consistent hate towards Megan markle when she does pretty low key things like launching jam that no one is being forced to buy. People were delighted that she is no longer using HRH titles and even said she shouldn’t call herself the Duchess of Sussex (even though that is distinct from royal titles).

On the flip side - NO ONE has called for an actual investigation into Prince Andrew on the days that he claimed to be at Pizza Express in Woking, when his movements are logged by the royal gamily and his security detail so they eill
know exactly where he was!

He slept with an underage victim of sex trafficking who
conveniently died by suicide shortly before her memoir naming and shaming many individuals came out.

Limited criticism of the late Queen who used £12million
pg her personal money to pay off an underage sec trafficking victim & shielded him from any investigation.

Disgusted by it all and was amused to see the vitriol on an article about Megan breathing, whereas limited calls for Andrew to be investigated by any U.S or UK authorities!

WHY?

Perhaps expect to be asked about it if you support that poster.

What specifically do you want me to answer? I can’t answer about an insult that I didn’t make. I quoted your post where you said the things were true. My post wasn’t supporting anyone. I didn’t quote any poster apart from you because you said the things were true. I was therefore asking what what the sitting on men’s knees was about and pointing out that a part played in a film doesn’t tell you much about someone’s character. Jamie Dornan rapes and kills women in The Fall and Julia Robert's is a prostitute in Pretty Woman but I don’t think that tells is anything about them in real life.

Can’t we say this for all the RF what we are shown is just an image and left to their own devices they would show their true colours.

Yes of course, though with Andrew and Harry it was much more difficult for the MIGS to cover up, there is only so much in their power that they can do, for example Harry hitting Taylor Hawkes or Andrew spraying a press pack with paint for the world to see, it’s hard to completely cover someone’s personality up if their public actions prove them to be unpleasant.

Aren’t you the poster who said something like if you support a poster you can be expected to justify their posts?

But I didn’t support anyone poster.

jeffgoldblum · 23/11/2025 18:01

i hope you got the point!
badgering one poster over another posters comments isn’t nice is it?
and if you had actually asked my opinion in a less aggressive manner I would have told you.
while the post was factual, no I would not have posted it myself,
i couldn’t care in the slightest what simulated sex scenes Meghan performed as an actress, I don’t care how many times she’s been pictured sitting on the laps of old men .
but other posters obviously do .

@jeffgoldblum

Someone said

However her years as a party girl sitting on old men's knees are out there online - dressed as a sexy maid, giving a blow job in a car, creeping around Rory McIlroy and others. We can see what Meghan's character is. She seems to have done anything to climb up.

Someone else, not me, said the post showed more about the poster than Meghan

You said that it’s factual

So because you said it was factual, I asked you some questions about it in my post (I attached it to the wrong post of yours which I explained, I meant to quote the one where you said it was factual. My post said:

What’s the thing about her sitting on old men’s knees?
The sexy maid and blow job in a car were acting jobs weren’t they?
‘Creeping’ around Rory Mciilroy. Apparently they were friends, or maybe they had a relationship.
Why does any of that matter? There may be other things we can judge what her character is like from but I don’t think friendships and romances tell us much or especially acting jobs. Lots of actors take shit jobs whilst they’re trying to make it or make a living.

Now you’re saying I am insulting people, which I haven’t. Please show me where I have? And that I’m supporting someone, when I haven’t. I don’t agree that the post was particularly ‘vile’ as another poster said, I just didn’t know what the story was about sitting on men’s knees and I don’t agree that the part you play as an actor is relevant to Meghans character in real life, so I said that.

@AllThisTime!

I didn’t badger you. I asked you because you said the post was factual and I wondered what the sitting on men’s knees saw as about as I’ve not seen that. And I pointed out that someone’s acting jobs and the parts they play aren’t really relevant to anything. What does acting giving a blow job in a car or being dressed as a sexy maid show about anyone. It’s acting. I wouldn’t show any support, even saying, ‘it’s factual’ to a post that comes across as judgemental and has a whiff of misogyny about it.

My post wasn’t aggressive at all? Here it is again to save you scrolling back. Which part is aggressive please?

Getty allegedly.

There are new reports that Montecito’s Meghan Markle, the Duchess of Sussex, continues to hang out with 89 year-old Gordon Getty at the Beverly Hills Hotel, despite rumors that Getty’s family has endeavored to cut ties between her and the billionaire.

You seriously don’t seem to get it do you!
I’ve explained multiple times and still you don’t.
I thought that by doing exactly the same thing you did to me and even using the same words you quoted me , you would understand. 🤷‍♀️
the quote I used was from the poster that you “supported “ when you lifted my comment from her post.
I’ve explained that it wasn’t my post multiple times and advised you to address your questions to the actual poster but still you are pestering me.
I’ve explained that i don’t care , if you want clarification then the poster who actually made the comment would probably post the pictures for you , or you could look yourself they are easily found.
im not going to waste my time finding proof of something I don’t care about.

Thank you. So are there photos of her sitting on his knee or not? Or how is the bit about sitting on his knee known? Grim on both sides if true but it does all sound like rumours. I’ve just read his family managed to stop her having contact with him somehow, but no one really knows what the contact was all about? Or do they?

Ok maybe you didn’t mean to come across that way , and I might have been harsh to say leave me alone, but understand my view , I didn’t post the comment, I don’t care about these things, I only knew that it was true because I’d seen the pictures before!
I didn’t care then , have no idea who the old man is and I don’t really care about it now.

Megan just isn't considered a royal. She has never done anything for the people of Britain. Why would you compare her to another member of the royal family? They aren't comparable.

More fake rumours. Searched it and it lead to saint Meghan Markle subreddit. Now I see with that kind of people we are talking about. Racists, fanatics, etc. Thank you for letting us know. It again confirms the kind of mindset OP is calling it out.

And that's alright, I won't answer you anymore after this post, as long you won't answer me.

I don’t know but this was in the Telegraph.

It comes as Meghan has also been linked to Gordon Getty, following unconfirmed reports the pair were spotted having lunch together. The San Francisco billionaire is the scion of the late J Paul Getty, whose oil fortune made his family among the richest in US history.

So while she may have taken a step back from the spotlight, behind the scenes, Meghan appears to once again be on manoeuvres.

They’re trying to drag you into a sidetrack, not the actual discussion. When people don’t have solid points, they often switch to confusion, nitpicking, or personal jabs. Don’t let them pull you into that. You were completely reasonable.

jeffgoldblum · 23/11/2025 19:39

@AllThisTimei would also say , I hope that if posters attack me for posting those pictures that you will defend me and not join in .

EllesmereP · 23/11/2025 19:45

'unconfirmed reports that the couple were having lunch together' somehow turning into it being stated as fact that MM was a party girl sitting on old men's knees seems pretty typical and unpleasant.

This is it, basically. She barely made an impression as a working royal. For many, she’s a here today, gone tomorrow gold digger.

Of course. I had looked for photos but didn’t find them but I was asking about them so it’s fair enough that you’ve posted them imo.

I’ve just been reading about her involvement with him and it doesn’t seem to be clear what is was all about, but lots of rumours and hearsay. I’d never heard of him. If the poster who mentioned this originally is here, what other men was she pictured sitting on?

I do think that poster who talked about it and her acting jobs and relationships as ‘creeping around’ men sounded really misogynistic. I don’t like any woman being judged on things like what acting roles they take. It can be a really bad industry and I don’t think it’s the women who should be judged.

I have no idea! , don’t know who the man is and didn’t hear the rumours, I simply typed Meghan sat on old man’s lap into google and screenshot the images that came up. 🤷‍♀️

I think I was reasonable but I do think things can be lost in translation in the written word and because of so many others posting. I’m not here to argue. I’m fairly neutral on the Meghan issue, I can see both sides I like to think, but I hate misogyny and I do think the other poster, (not Jeffglodblum), sounded like it was that.

lol. See, I just typed ‘Meghan Markle Gordon Getty’ after he was mentioned by a pp. My google search was obviously not specific enough. I find it incredible that someone can be worth so much money and we don’t know who he is! Just another billionaire with younger, attractive women. It all so grim. I know Meghan is seen as some sort of social climber on here, but I always feel there is some sort of vulnerability when women are doing this and there are always creepy older men to take advantage.

If you read many of my posts ( I never name change) you will discover that I agree and that I only hold Meghan responsible for her actions and Harry responsible for his actions!( and many of Meghans) , I have no interest in what she did before the awful lies on the Oprah program.
