opinion: The Meghan Markle & Prince Harry / Royal Family split is not authentic. It's a carefully orchestrated move to establish part of the British royal family in the US and foster their support through social media.

@ghostprototype It's also them trying to make money to pay for their security, since people's taxes aren't paying anymore. It's all celebrity idiocy, though in the US I'm pretty sure they're B list at best.

@ghostprototype It's embarrassing, they kept saying they want privacy and to "live like normal people" yet they give countless interviews, have a low rent podcast and still use their titles. It's giving ✨influencer✨ behaviour.

@earlgrey @ghostprototype It just looks like a desperate attempt at making money off their titles and a strong desire to be more relevant than being known as ‘the spare’ to this American.

@ghostprototype Of course it isn't authentic. But it is not a ploy by the British monarchy to set up a base in the US. The two nincompoops who claim to want privacy from all the cameras that chased Diana.... are now calling paps to come chase them around Montecito, and telling the world their "truth" in a 6 part Netflix special? They were supposed to come to Canada, a Commonwealth country. They planned all along to go to the US. So called Canada dangerous, and fled for their precious lives. Makes sense, if you can die from too much being left alone, politeness, and people who end some sentences in "eh". Seriously, at most they were at risk of being bored to tears, by all that nature surrounding the mansion they were hiding in on Vancouver Island. Most working class people would have loved to have a chance to stay in a bloody mansion. But we'd have enough sense not to whine about it, and enjoy the outdoors.

@earlgrey lol, right? If they wanted privacy, why in the world why they come to the US? We've got to have the worst paparazzi presence outside of the UK

@starsstorm @earlgrey @ghostprototype I have finished watching all 3 episodes of Meghan and Harry Netflix interview. Harry is much worse when than Meghan. He comes across as nothing but spolied insincere entitled piece of sh*t. In the beginning I felt so sorry for Meghan markle and always defended her because the way the British media treated her especially during the Royal wedding was just disgraceful. The feud between Meghan and her father was a private family matter which should have been dealt with privately but the media turned this into entertainment for the British public. Piers Morgan obessive behaviour towards Meghan was pure harassment and misogyny. Piers Morgan kept publicly criticising and insulting Meghan on his newspaper colums and on the morning show Good Morning Britain all because she rejected him and stopped talking to him a couple of years ago before she met Harry.I stopped supporting Meghan after watching the Oprah interview because Harry and her kept lying. Their version of events they gave on Oprah had far too many inconsistencies and the couple were eventually caught lying. The problem with Meghan and Harry is they keep lying, it is too much lying they keep doing. The Queen only died 3 months ( she died on September) Meghan and Harry doing this Netflix documentary is so disrespectful.

@MellowMarigold @starsstorm @earlgrey @ghostprototype There’s also the complete lack of understanding that race in the UK != race in the US. If they didn’t keep loudly telling us that She Is Black, no one here would have noticed (literally, she maybe looks a bit Italian or Persian or similar). It’s not that She Is Black, it’s that they’re both whiny irritating people.

@Flick@spinster.xyz @MellowMarigold@spinster.xyz @starsstorm@spinster.xyz @earlgrey@spinster.xyz @ghostprototype@spinster.xyz okay but even then it's obvious that the British royalty and tabloids treat Meghan that way because she is biracial.

@ghostprototype It's sad because even with all that they still have to try so hard to be seen. They go out of their way for interviews, shows, podcasts etc. You can tell they're desperate to keep the limelight on them.

@earlgrey @ghostprototype Harry is so emotionally manipulative it was actually disturbing to watch, he is far worse than Meghan. He is such a piece of sh*t. •In the documentary Harry kept saying British media's treatment of Meghan markle is the same way they treated his mother Princess Diana. Princess Diana was harassed and stalked by the media till the end of her life. Princess Diana had no one defending her and she was all alone. Meghan markle had a legion of celebrity friends in America defending her and fighting for her. • Harry is so fake I honestly want to smack him and I can't believe people are falling for this sh*t. He looked into the camera saying how regrets wearing a nazi uniform and tried to make amends. There is NO excuse for wearing a nazi uniform at 20 years old. Harry went through the same education system as everyone else in this country in which we learn nazi Germany was a pure evil regime. He knows nazism is wrong but still choose to wear the uniform anyway for the fancy dress party. He even had the audacity to say that as teenager when he was sent to live in an African country the African people he lived with "literally raised" him. If these people raised him then how come he ended up wearing a nazi uniform at 20 years old and went on to say racist things in his 20s. He is racist piece of sh* t who got caught.

@m1ss4ndry @Flick @earlgrey @ghostprototype @starsstorm Yes Meghan did experience racism but for her and Harry to claim the entire UK population had a problem with her because of her race is misleading and an unfair assessment. The UK has always had interracial relationships throughout history and never criminalised them. America which is where is Meghan is from had laws which made it illegal for interracial relationships to take place. Yes there racist people in Britain who disapprove of interracial relationships but they do not make up the majority of the population, loads of people dont really care about interracial relationships. I grew up in a UK multicultural city I really felt sorry for Meghan and always defended her from day one but the problem with Meghan and Harry is they keep lying and just make everything about themselves even doing charity work they still make it about themselves.

@Kay @ghostprototype They also left because Canada was going to stop paying for their year round security. Then they stayed with Tyler Perry of all people. I can't believe how much I remember, like never watched the interview but you just learn all this through osmosis, and news I guess.

@earlgrey @ghostprototype Yeah, the agreement was Canadian taxpayers foot the bill, so they do charitable works here. She visited one domestic violence shelter, where specially selected photogenic women got to meet and have tea with her. Then her outfit was mysteriously made known, down to the designer necklace (she apparently gets money for basically being a model for designers who don't know any other way to sell their wares). Then off to the US mansion they fled, before COVID restrictions would make it a bit harder to get on that private jet that they tell us poors not to take. They are a couple of hypocritical nincompoops.

@MellowMarigold @earlgrey @ghostprototype He also beat prostitutes while in the military. He's defo no angel. She's just a narcissist and social climber, looking for endless ways to increase her personal wealth, no matter how many people she has to harm to get that. He's a piece of excrement who was raised in a world of opulence and luxury. He really thinks saying "oops, sorry 'bout the Nazi uniform thing!" is enough of an apology.

@Flick @m1ss4ndry @earlgrey @ghostprototype @starsstorm My family and myself have had multiple conversations about Meghan and race I come from a very large diverse family so the conservations on this are really interesting. My grandmother is mixed race and an immigrant. My grandmother thinks Meghan is a "snob" who wanted to be a "part of the British high class" and believed her family were "not good enough for her" to attend the Royal wedding however my grandmother's sister who lives in America believes the British were being racist.I am a black woman who has experienced racism and I do have a duty to listen to other people of colour who have experienced racism. Yes Meghan did racism in the UK but at the same time she is using and weaponsing her racial identity as a mixed race woman to shut down legitimate criticism of her behaviour and to gain public sympathy. I personally find that disgusting and it is so insulting to people who have actually suffer racism and discrimination daily. Being a child of immigrants I have seen family members experience racism seeing Meghan talk about race so irresponsibly it is does disgust me. This is why I stopped supporting Meghan and feeling sorry for her

@MellowMarigold @earlgrey @ghostprototype I still can’t believe he had the audacity to say he was watching out for his grandmother when he refused to even be in the same country as her. I’m sure none of the other royals are any better than any other average wealthy human, but he definitely seems to be really entitled.

@earlgrey @Kay @ghostprototype I really wanted Meghan and Harry to do well. I genuinely thought Megxit would have been good for them and all this fighting happening in the family and British press would have ended. I really felt sorry for Meghan. Meghan and Harry could have had a wonderful life outside the Royal family but chose not to because they were greedy. They both greedy and bad as each other.They want the privileges of Royalty but not the responsibility of Royalty. Meghan should have gone back to acting and did charity work which is something Angelina Jolie does and harry should have gotten a job in charity something in vetrans affairs as he was in the military. They should have remained living a life of privacy and dignity. What they are doing is so undignified because all they are doing is causing pain and hurt to their families.

@starsstorm @earlgrey @ghostprototype Watching all three episodes I just wanted to scream at the TV but couldn't because I have a sore throat and coming down with the cold. The way Harry talks about race is so emotionally manipulative, so exploitative and just so irresponsible. This is what the worst part about the Netflix documentary. The more Harry opened his overprevilged mouth the more I wanted to go inside the TV and smack him. ● In one of the episodes Harry talked about being "proud" of having mixed race children and how people need to "educate" themselves on the "unconscious biases" they have. He talked about the "amends" he made after being caught wearing a nazi uniform. I rolled my eyes because he kept acting like this anti racism crusader but he has spent his adult life being a racist. There is NO excuse for people doing racism in their 20s. He had the best education daddy's money can buy. He choose to be that way and people find it hard to acknowledge. He is upset about getting caught for being a racist and trying to save his image. The way he talks about the Africa is just ridiculous because Africa first of all is a continent made up of over 50 countries and he talks about the continent as if it is some rehabilitation centre. He was sent to an African country as a Teen because of his out of control behaviour and said how the people "raised" him.The man is so sanctimonious is actually disgusting. Meghan did experience racism in the UK but at the same time the Harry is using a sensitive issue as race to gain public sympathy and gain. He is truly a vile person.

@MellowMarigold @earlgrey @ghostprototype Meghan has never bothered me. I’m American and I think a lot of her issues are because she’s American and had expectations on how things would be and they were met. Plus the obvious racism she faced. And honestly, now I’m left wondering if some of her lack of understanding of how things are for royal women are because Harry has such an inflated opinion of his own importance. He got all of the privileges without any of the responsibilities and it shows. And like you said, being racist in your 20s is inexcusable. I don’t recall him doing anything really of note after being caught in the nazi costume, but I am American and maybe I missed it. I am very weirded out by a man who was clearly racist in the past talking about being proud of having mixed race kids. It feels creepy and wrong.

@starsstorm @MellowMarigold @earlgrey @ghostprototype I think I know as much about British royalty as I do the Kardashians. Except I actually watched "The Crown" and I never watched the Kardashian show so I guess that statement is no longer exactly true. However before the tv shows, I just knew that Queen Elizabeth exists and Princess Diana existed before dying at some point somehow. Though the whole funeral situation for the queen spoiled the show for me. I didn't know the guy who was with Diana ended up with that other lady!

@Kay @earlgrey @ghostprototype where have you got this from?He beat up prostitutes? Did he? Really?Strikes me that he was a bloody ignorant and rebellious idiot as a youth, but the way he speaks now seems to demonstrate deep hurt and personal championing of women and his own family safety.Can't swallow that they stole their Grandmother's pet name given by her sister. Tasteless. I saw that as making connections to the top of the Royalty and a specious move.

@GalacticTurtle @starsstorm @earlgrey @ghostprototype I love the Crown. I have not season 5 yet because I have been so busy with work and master degree applications. Princess Diana died a couple of months after I was born. I was 3 months old when she died. All I know about Diana is reading from media articles and asking my grandmother and mother questions because thier generation grew up with her. My grandmother watched her funeral. Diana story is a really sad one. The biggest tragedy about her death was she was hounded by the media till the very end of her life and had no dignity even in death. After the car crash the press were talking pictures of the car crash scence. The poor woman was treated like nothing but an image sold to the highest bidder. Diana really suffered. Charles should have NEVER been allowed to marry Diana. Looking at Charles and Diana's engagement photos he looks like her dad it is absolutely disgusting. This marriage should have never been allowed to happen.

@MellowMarigold @starsstorm @earlgrey @ghostprototype To be fair, he got his highschool level education, and allegedly had to pay his way through the exams. He's rich so he doesn't need to be smart, or morally good. He's a doofus white man, telling everyone else that we need to reckon with racist history (particularly those of us in the Commonwealth because it's our fault whether we're descended from nobility or not, that colonialism is a thing... but he, an actual descendant of the British Royal family is excused from reckoning with the colonialism and his own very real racism because he totally definitely said "sorry" somewhere, somehow, and reparations were paid in the form of hush money).
