r95, I've been critical of both Sussexes.
I'm no "Klan Granny".
By the way, I find that term to be amusing, and, in some instances, accurate, when it comes to Sussex Obsessives.
Anybody who denies that racial bigotry doesn't enter in with SOME of Markle's haters, isn't credible. It certainly has and continues to be present within a portion of them.
Here's the thing, too, as real as what I point I out in my previous words - The Sussexes have cashed in on being Royal. That's just a fact.
Who, on Satan's Green Earth, would give an At's Rass about either of those two if he wasn't the son of King Charles and the late, lamented over, Diana?
And don't try and pass off that twaddle to me about how her Northwestern University education (a real, valuable thing, btw) and her speaking about woman's rights issues, somehow put her where she is today.
Demonstrably, they haven't. If they had, she wouldn't still have been a 30s, "C List" actor in the cast of an obscure cable "hit" series.
Markle was provided the forum when she talked of women's rights issues, with William and Kate present, BECAUSE she married Harry.
I don't begrudge the Sussexes for making an honest, or even dishonest, buck, off of their Royal-adjacent positions.
A family has to eat. A family has to pay a staff to maintain their children and mansion. A family has to save for expensive private schools for their children. A family has to pay property taxes. A family has to "keep up with the Jones" in one of the most expensive places to live in California.
The reality is that Harry and Meghan are just plain unlikable.
As a person of color myself, it's amusing to me that she enjoys some aspect of street cred about her bi-racialism.
For instance, I don't know about you, but the women I saw that she brought as her guests to Wimbledon weren't Black. This was after she was either engaged or married to Harry.
They were her chosen friends who looked like they were the models for the dolls in the "Entitled Caucasion Karen" aisle in Toys 'R Us.
I don't know what's in store next for the Sussexes. I've long predicted, however, that they'll divorce. I guess that's next installment of the saga. Yawn.
Meanwhile, I can't WAIT for the Coronation and, of course, the DL threads about it.
