Beautifully put! BINGO - MM is mediocre, at best.

Meghan seems to get more boring by the day! Soon no one will want to see her face!

It’s becoming a bit like that, I think. Thanks for reading!

Late to the party here, but the deluded TIME reporter crams practically into the lede her breathless assessment that the Montecito Olive Garden, purchased for $15 million, is “now worth twice as much.” Hell-o?

H’s wife wants people to like her. She wants to move forward and have people forget about her lies and past behavior, especially towards the Royal Family, and just sweep things under the rug. Well, I won’t forget how H’s wife caused hurt and distress towards HMTLQ while she was battling her illness. I won’t forget how the Sussex Squad spews hatred towards others, and H and his wife, who promote online safety, say nothing about the venom their followers spout online, most recently towards a chef who critiqued H’s wife’s show. H’s wife talks about showing kindness to others, but not family members. Make that make sense! So, I am not interested in her show, products, podcast, etc. What is H’s wife’s end goal - to be very famous and rich beyond belief? Unfortunately for H’s wife, she is looked upon as a liar (Oprah for one), bully (UK & US) and fraud (her own words). These are all negative traits H’s wife is trying very hard to shake, and these traits are always going to be a part of her, which she did all on her own.

I want so much to like her, and don't agree with the level of hate she gets, but you're right - she's famous because she married Harry, not because she did anything amazing herself. In Britain, especially, I think we struggle with that. The vibe here is very much self depreciation and humble pie, whereas Meg comes across as though she believes she's earned what she has. There's no humility there, no acknowledgment, and it's too cringe to be endearing or even comfortable to watch. I think she'd go down so much better here if she was just like 'LOL look at Suits saying I was a main character now I'm a princess, hey look at this briefcase from when I was on that game show, isn't it crazy that this is my life now?' Instead it's 'look how amazing I am, I am so famous and I did it all myself, don't you want to be like me?'

Also going against her is that she 'took' Harry away from the UK. We love that guy. Give him back! (Joking, sure he's happy etc, do miss his antics though.)

I found her episodes to be sad. She is so desperate to be loved and admired and it shows. She should get some counseling and focus on growing as a person.

Or focus on being a mother and wife.

ANY exposure to this publicity hound is overexposure. Shudder.

You.Are.Spot.On.

Never have I read an article in the newspapers,etc or a post on social media that accurately describes a "wannabe" individual so succinctly...... Bravo!

When I look at social media news and see how she is promoted in multiple articles, I delete..... overexposed and overrated but her dislike for the BRF is the only true emotion she owns..... she wears the color green very well.... sad.

The contrast from nothing to being everywhere is an interesting choice. It makes me wonder if this flood the zone is the plan, and if so why.

She just can’t help herself. She must be at the center of everything.

There is a way for both Markle and her husband to regain some grace but they wouldn’t consider it.

IF they were trained and sincerely committed to a non-glamorous job (orderly in a geriatric facility e.g.) and if they could wear the uniform and comply with rules etc they might learn compassion and self discipline and earn some respect.

I'm just afraid that Harry will be ejected from the USA for lying about his drug use and the '***ing grifters' will try and come back to the UK.

CIII is stupid enough to allow it, and the rest of us (apart from the few admirers MM has left) can't bear the thought of her oozing and emoting round Harry when they're in public; it's embarrassingly 'inauthentic', but then again, 'As ever, Meghan'
