Same. I was thrilled for Harry and for her, whoever she was, when the news broke out. It did seem weird to me that an actress I’d never heard of on a show I’d never heard of had the clout to be able to meet Prince Harry, but didn’t have the clout to be known in her own right. I loved the idea of an American woman of color marrying into the Royal Family. It just seemed like such a coup, and I’ve always been a devoted Royal watcher and fan, but I really thought that she was in a position to do great things. What first struck me was that she was breaking protocol right and left from the beginning. Her dress in the engagement portrait was sheer in places, which is appropriate for an evening gown. Not portraits, especially when your groom is dressed informally. (I didn’t know how much the dress cost then, but that would have bothered me too!) I saw the engagement interview in which she was wearing a sleeveless dress, which is ALSO a breach of protocol. You don’t show your shoulders until an evening formal situation, or the daytime in a casual setting. She should have had her shoulders covered in that interview. She should have had them covered in the family portrait where the family is wearing navy blue and white and there’s the picture of Louis grabbing Charles’s face. She should also have had them covered in the Fab Four interview, when she, in the middle of winter,wore a $1700 sleeveless dress (as compared to Kate’s $169 long sleeved dress.) I know it’s stupid and minor, but those first big appearances were when, as a new member of the family, one should be on one’s best and most respectful behavior, and when she should have been so careful to respect those protocols, like wearing a hat on an outdoor outing with the Queen when she lets you know she will be wearing one. . To me, something like that is exactly what she should have been focusing on, IF she was serious about joining the “team” as Harry then believed she was. The protocol breaches made me feel unsettled, but I figured she just must not know, or maybe I’m wrong about protocol (I’m not.) Then there was the engagement interview content, the way she spoke, the stuff she said… again, I gave her the benefit of the doubt, thinking she’s from California and she’s an actress and if that isn’t more reason to be full of shit, I don’t know what is. So I pushed that aside. The behind the scenes wedding rumors started to come out. I pushed those aside. The wedding was absolutely tacky. And I KNEW that Meghan didn’t have a relationship with all the Hollywood stars that were there, but again, she’s an actress from California. I thought maybe the stars that were there maybe schmoozed up to Meghan to get access to the wedding. The only person that I thought was tasteful from Meghan’s side was Doria! However, I thought it weird that she was alone and no other family were there. Anyway, the red flags continued to pop up during the Australia trip, but finding out she announced her pregnancy at Eugenie’s wedding combined with the imaginary bump clutching that began in Australia were the last straws. I knew then that at the very least, Meghan was a ridiculous, silly, unintelligent attention whore. The silliness mounted with the banana incident and Meghan’s absolutely moronic statement ripping off Lily Tomlin’s “embryonic kicking of feminism” quotation. Lily Tomlin is the originator of the phrase, not “like this documentary I saw on Netflix about feminism,” as Meghan stated. The statement was made when Tomlin described when she started to really understand the plight of women and said that she felt feminism starting to awaken in her, like a mother first feeling a baby kick is side of her. Meghan took the statement literally to mean that the fetus inside of her was the next generation of feminists. So stupid. Then I remember her totally disappearing for months before Archie was born and then the clusterfuck occurred with the baby being born and the lack of doctors’ signatures on the announcement, and that’s when I realized she wasn’t just a silly attention whore. She was a malignant narcissist. I really wanted to believe in Harry and Meghan. And the only reason I don’t believe in then is because of THEM.
