A lack of humour and self reflection is not helping.

Great clip of her trying to look as if she is part of the conversation and ending up talking to herself! 🤦‍♀️

You can tell from the clip just how insecure a person she actually is. I think recent events have stripped away her armour and the Meghan we see in that clip is the real Meghan. A wee bully of a mouse who pretends they’re the king of the jungle.

It's not just horrible for Meg. It's her children too. They are the grandchildren of a paodophile. I have a friend in that situation and it's horrible but she is lucky to have a great family network. Hamlets have nobody. Two very dysfunctional parents and one, I would argue, questionable grandmother. Nannies are employees. Not family.

MM is very awkward socially. She obviously doesnt know what to do with herself, how to position her hands or what to say, or when to not say anything. So she does a weird performance of being social. Seal clapping, hugging, blinking, exaggerated facial expressions and random chatting to no one.

Her habit of hugging is I think a learned 'skill' to structure an interaction. She has something to do and can follow a little routine. Without this she is lost.

I have some sympathy when I watch hre floundering and pretending to make small talk, as I am also terrible at small talk and social interaction. I don't know what to say or do and recognise that feeling of being a bit lost and awkwardly trying to 'chat'.

But I don't pursue a job or fame where I'm choosing to do this over and over under scrutiny. I think she lacks the self awareness to know how badly she comes across. She just thinks: I come across as warm because I hug and blink a lot.

She’s not naturally assured. She does have presence, but no finesse. She tries too hard with all of the hugging & “oh my gosh!”. Which might work in the US, but not in the UK.

I actually felt a bit sorry seeing the men talk over/around her.

Of course if she was trying to butt in that would explain it.

The short-stepping in high heels accompanied by seal clapping and 'I must see my ladies' and squealing was a sight to behold in Nottingham, but the ladies seemed pleased tbf. Quite a contrast to today.

Had she taken up the offers of help from the RF - the equerry, Sophie and others, I expect being an actress, she would have found it quite easy to have a RF persona but chose not to, as HAM's arrogance over ruled.

In the early days within the RF, before the wedding, Meghan was given the impression she was "special" due to the RF bending over to help her settle in, certainly over and above any other royal brides had experienced. Looking back this will have only enhanced HAM's egos - I expect there are some who now think she should have been treated as previous prospective brides had. Sadly though it became very evident that if HAM did not get what they want then the accusations began. A very difficult situation the RF found themselves in.

Of course I support any actions to protect children from online issues, but I have always thought HAM have jumped on the bandwagon on this, and their speeches are actually taking aim at social media's comments about them, and in particular Meghan.

Maybe what they meant is that Harry was told by RF that she had to cut TM loose in order to marry him? So therefore she gave up her dad / family for Harry? But they couldn’t actually mention the real reason.

I do feel for Meghan somewhat, nobody wants their dad to be that guy. Think of the kids of the high profile men in the news right now for sex-offences. One’s going to jail, the other is all over the media, Internet…

Well that theory doesn’t hold up to scrutiny, until the last minute TM was going to attend the wedding and walk Meghan down the aisle so no there were no orders from the Palace to cut TM loose in order that they could marry, plus if my memory serves me correctly it was reported that HMTLQ was quite perplexed as to why TM had not met Harry or been involved more in the wedding arrangements.

Just watched that again. The guy on the right is quite perplexed by it all.

Yes - wasn't there an extract from Spare upthread where Harry described the Queen wanting Meghan to go to see TM, and she was concerned about the visit to Mexico, so the Queen compromised on advising them to phone him?
