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?

Look how upset you are because one person has called you a name that you don’t agree with. Can you really not see the irony?

Calling someone a racist, without any reason, isn’t the same. You’ve picked something to bait me, I’ve just said what Megain has proven herself to be. Completely different 🙄

I read the mail online app and have seen none of these stories. You’re just making this up (and yes the stories on the app make it to the paper).

Interested that you looked at something completely different to me but decided that despite this the only possible explanation is that I am making it up.

Which still leaves the OP's question unanswered- what is it about Meghan that triggers so much vitriol?

But it isn’t unanswered. It’s been answered time and time again, with receipts. Save yourself a lot of bother and just do a search on here. Everything she did wrong, the lies, the bullying, the treachery, is all there in detail.

Criticise Meghan and you are almost guaranteed her supporters will make personal and vicious attacks in retaliation, it’s Meghan’s modus operandi, which explains why they feel empowered to support her using similar tactics.

Absolutely! I’ve had this a few times 😉

I think those that post on threads about Meghan day in day out are the true fans because they keep her prominent and in the media but then complain about it.

Yes she's annoying but she hasn't done anything lately to talk about,but there always seems to be three or four threads running concurrently about her or Harry

Whereas Andrew is on every news channel, every chat program, all over the US media and other countries and what really amuses me is that a lot of die hard contributors to Meghan threads are nowhere to be seen on the Andrew threads! How weird is that. What is going on at the moment with him and Sarah really matters. They are talking about it being debated in parliament, unheard of.

Absolutely this^^

I was just about to post the same thing!

chunkyBoo · 23/10/2025 14:02

I’ve seen plenty of familiar names posting on the PA posts.
FWIW - Meghan has been putting herself out there a lot recently, Balenciaga debacle springs to mind, the Paris faux pas, picking up unearned / unknown (purchased for PR) awards 🤣

I have seen A LOT who don't unless it is a side swipe at Meghan when the occasion dubiously arises. Very infrequent.
Seriously, it's very strange. Like the only person to criticise is her and him. No one else royal. And let's not criticise what is actually going on in the media internationally
Very strange. Although in fact it's not strange at all, it is what I would have expected

A Paris fashion show attendance shock horror!!!
Almost as bad as lying to the Great British public about mixing with a sex trafficker!

It’s not completely different, the mail online paper and the physical paper print the SAME STORIES. You are making it up. If you’re not then look up these horrible stories and paste the links. They’d be easy to find on Google. Do you think the website and the print paper don’t print the same stories?

I only mentioned Megain because someone had said she’d not been pushing herself in the media recently, except the lies about Balenciaga, and the word salad / trying to hitch her waggon to PPP and was just cringe … “They have worked closely together, collaborating on design for key moments on the world stage,"
if that’s not her desperate to staple herself to Balenciaga / PPP I don’t know what is! Clearly they saw through it and put the record straight

Posters can and do name change, as you know.

The layout of the newspaper and the website are not the same.

Yes they share stories but they are not the same thing. And you need either a physical paper copy or a Press reader subscription to see the newspaper layout, you can't Google it.

And I don't appreciate being called a liar.

Why would they hide their names or change them on Andrew threads?

What a silly comment.

It’s tongue in cheek but she can’t be making the kind of money they need, no matter what you think!

Shame you didn’t understand… makes you the one to look silly 🤣

CoffeeCantata · 23/10/2025 07:35

I disagree with your assessment of M’s unpopularity.

She just screams - absolutely SCREAMS - mean girl, manipulative, false, spiteful, shallow narcissist to me…and to many other people.

I would have crossed the street to avoid Ms Markle even after watching the engagement interview. It was some time before I learned she was mixed race so my revulsion most certainly can’t be blamed on that.

She’s welcome to dim whinger Harry. I have no beef with them now as long as they stay on the US and stop claiming to be either royal or philanthropists. They’re both fading from view now and that’s fine by me.

You’re very perceptive @CoffeeCantata,

It took me a good bit longer before reaching the same conclusion in the end.

Tiredofbullsit · 23/10/2025 17:20

JoeMarlerseyes · 23/10/2025 07:45

lol so people don't "hate" her
yet use words like repulsive, mean girl, manipulative, false, spiteful, shallow narcissist , to describe her.
yeah ok.
interesting that the op has not been back,

Those are observations. Not hate!

It’s so juvenile and uneducated to claim that criticism = hate. I guess she doesn’t figure strongly enough in most people’s lives to waste their energy on hating.

Every time I see that accusation bandied about, I judge that person’s intelligence negatively! It’s beyond stupid!

Why? Are you like this in real life? I've met people at social functions, through work, all over the place and thought to myself gosh they seem a bit abrupt, strange, unfriendly whatever. I have parked that view and found out they have turned out to be the nicest people and I am glad I gave them a chance.

Obviously if you feel so strongly about someone just from a short interview on the telly, you were never going to give her a chance were you, especially with all the names you have just called her
It was obvious she was a biracial woman!

It wasn’t obvious to me! But then I don’t even think about what race someone is because it makes no difference to me.

Have you been living under a rock? It’s been a LOT more than one interview now. I’m actually a believer in first impressions because I’m seldom wrong!

Do stop lying. RF regulars do post on the Andrew threads and always have. There’s only so many times one can type “He should be in jail”.

I actually don’t have a problem with the death penalty for child abusers and traffickers, and that includes royals. Andrew needs to be investigated and tried, but apparently that’s not going to happen according to certain republican posters. There’s not much of a rational argument you can have with posters who just whinge that nothing will happen because “establishment stitch up”, which is what happened when I joined an Andrew thread last week. What’s the point of trying to converse with people like that? What are you expecting people to say? Nobody thinks he’s a good person.

You sound like you are annoyed you aren’t getting the chance to argue with people about Andrew through the frame of the Sussexes. If you think Meghan is being done a disservice, backing up goady threads like this that lump her in with the likes of Andrew just makes you as bad as the OP.

I don’t think you are anyone to talk about name changing.

Everyone's entitled to their own opinion of course, but I think lots of the negativity around Meghan is just a deliberate construct of the British media. They left the Royal family, therefore are perceived as a threat and have to be cut down to size.

Personally I find her a fascinating, bright and very capable woman. She's building her profile and business alongside Harry's charitable endeavours. What choice do they have? She has to make money (their expenses must be huge when you include security) and is trying various ways to achieve that.

They look genuinely happy together (in my opinion) and I say well done Meghan for not being browbeaten and crushed by the British Establishment. I bet if the Royals could turn back the clock they would have handled things differently. My opinion is that they never thought Harry would leave and put his wife's well-being before the needs of the Royal family. Nice to see them happy and thriving in their gorgeous home - owned and paid for by them, unlike other members of the Royal family!

I think you’re talking about a different person. None of this rings true about Meghan at all!

I wouldn’t say it was odd, no.

It think it goes without saying that most people think Andrew is a revolting individual. I personally don’t feel like I need to be present on any/all recent Andrew threads expressing (yet again) my disgust at his behaviour. I have said it all before.
