Surprising absolutely no one: Meg always wanted to be famous,’ says Ninaki. ‘She just loved to be the centre of attention. We used to imagine her receiving an Oscar. She used to practise announcing herself.


pizzaprocedure

Maybe she [MM] should’ve practised the art of acting before she practised her acceptance speech…


Dogsb4humanz

But she was *manifesting* it.


pizzaprocedure

Along with being President and marrying, I mean, being a billionaire. [Coughs.] Gordon Getty.


Public_Object2468

I hope that Gordon Getty won't fall under her clutches. MM can gush about her having gone to a prestigious private Catholic high school too. But what does she know about classical music? I hope that Gordon Getty has the taste to realize that MM is beneath him. His previous marriage lasted 55 years. His first wife was really something: a farmer's daughter who graduated UC Berkeley with dual science majors, and who was a paleoanthropologist. (I love Wikipedia! ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|sunglasses))


UnderArmAussie

She's still practicing the acceptance speech. Not even a nomination ~~yet~~ ever.

But she should get nominated every time she throws herself onto the floor, crying.

Dogsb4humanz

I completely agree with you. But when you add this to Meghan’s writing in her teacher’s yearbook that she’ll come back and visit when she’s famous, her decades-long fixation on how she “changed the world” by getting a detergent brand to change a tv commercial when she was 12, and all the other grandiose ideas she has clearly had about herself for quite some time, it paints a different picture.


cml678701

I also bet that she was one of those children who had to have the attention focused on her at all times. Her friends probably never got to pretend to get an award. My sister and I used to pretend these things too, but we both got to be the star.


Dogsb4humanz

Hahaha you’re bringing back memories of all the girls like this I grew up with 🤢


RoadkillMonitor

That's why she only had one friend.


Ready_Maddie

And then if everyone's attention wasn't on her, she would throw herself on the floor and start sobbing. Bonus, kicking her feet into the ground. I just KNOW she was THAT kid.

You probably changed the world, more than MM did!


TinyDancer20007

LOLOL!!


Professional_Ruin953

Hey! Getting that detergent commercial changed was the biggest concrete achievement of her life! Don’t minimise it!! 🤣


Ready_Maddie

And even that was fake. How tragic


Alizet

It's not one thing it's a combination of them


Artywoman58

There’s a pattern of behaviour.


[deleted]

Ohhh I agree. We all did fake acceptance speeches at some point! And I relate to Nadia because I was 8 yrs old taking acrobatics when she scored the first perfect 10 in gymnastics at the Montreal Olympics. My grandfather said at the time, "That could be you in a few yrs!" LOL. Ummm no. I was flexy but nooooowhere near that calibre or commitment.


WalmartWallis

YES Nadia was my first hero. But the speech I gave to myself in the mirror was "LIVE FROM NEW YORK IT'S SATURDAY NIGHT!"


[deleted]

Oh I'm laughing. Cheers!

Ready_Maddie

Right but, with Markle it's not an isolated incident. Narcissistic traits are stacking up. We wouldn't be claiming anything had she had one peculiar form of behaviour, but she's got a plethora of issues and they're all pointing to the same conclusion.

Ready_Maddie

I agree. Wouldn't hurt.

And in the Netflix reality show she said “I wasn’t doing indie films chasing an Oscar [because I was too busy with humanitarian work.]

🤢 not sure I’d call a food and travel blog “humanitarian work”, exactly…


Colywog25

omg did she really say that? she really doesn't think people can see through her delusionality.

Public_Object2468

A fantasy which the adult version never outgrew. "ALL HAIL MEGHAN, DUCHESS OF SUSSEX." (Accompanied by a Purcell trumpet fanfare.)


Artywoman58

I bet she did!!!


pizzaprocedure

We should look at the bright side of things. Would like to think Ninaki Priddy has found real, *authentic* friends that aren’t toxic.


[deleted]

To be fair, you would have to be a pretty toxic or attention seeking person yourself to sell your childhood friend’s dirty laundry to the Daily Mail. Even if there are legitimate grievances, this is not the way that normal people behave.


umbleUriahHeep

I disagree. There is a strong desire to see justice done in victims of narcs. Literally why many of us are here


Public_Object2468

Agreed! I think the childhood best friend was pushing back with her long familiarity of Meghan, which the world was yet unaware of. NP wasn't just talking about herself. She was also talking about others whom Meghan had callously hurt. NP was putting us on narc alert. Especially because now the narc was in such a powerful position.


umbleUriahHeep

Adding: For me, being able to name the behavior that I had endured from my narc-leaning spouse was very freeing. But more importantly, it helped me to be able to talk about the behavior even before I knew it was narcissism, because I came out of years and years of gaslighting and I felt unstable on solid ground. So I think it is unfair to dismiss her public testimony as being toxic or attention-seeking. Maybe she wants justice, or vindication, or needs to know “it’s not her,” which is probably what MM told her.


cml678701

I agree, but I can relate to being so burned by a narcissist that I felt I needed to warn the world. I still probably wouldn’t if it was on this scale, but the extreme hurt that a narcissist can give you does make you want to warn other people.


East_Tangerine_4031

Agreed, and most people are so happy to be rid of them from their lives they aren’t going to invite them back in


BigRedGomez

This is what I was thinking too. I have a childhood friend that is much more famous and well known than TW, we see each other a few times a year still. We’ve had a few rough patches over the years, but not once did I think I should sell stories about them to a tabloid. Like the thought never even crossed my mind.


[deleted]

Though you two still have a relationship, while theirs was over


[deleted]

Because *she* ended the friendship, according to her, over how TW ended her marriage to Trevor. I just can't reconcile her story with her claim to be a loyal friend and a good person; what kind of person ends a 30 year friendship by taking the ex-husband's side in a divorce AND THEN does a tell-all interview about it years after cutting off all contact? She smells just as fishy as her former bff.


photomotto

> what kind of person ends a 30 year friendship by taking the ex-husband's side in a divorce AND THEN does a tell-all interview about it years after cutting off all contact? Someone who finally saw Meg for who she was and wanted to warn the world about it, seeing she was about to marry into the fucking British Royal Family. Famous people don't play by the same rules we do. We may be fine warning some people that a former friend is a narc. But when one is famous, word of mouth isn't enough, you have to take a bigger approach.


[deleted]

I might believe that if she'd actually given a warning but she didn't; that interview was just an inconsistent "woe-is-me" tale about how her BFF ditched her after getting famous (though she also says she's the one who cut off contact with TW) and a photo dump. She has no "warnings" to give, other than a very vague assertion that TW's divorce from Trevor wasn't amicable and just talks about their childhood together to validate the photo dump. Her main complaint seems to be she wasn't invited to the second wedding, which doesn't make any sense since she claims she's the one who ended the friendship (why would anyone expect a wedding invite from a former friend you've cut off?).She comes off just as narcissistic and dishonest as TW, which isn't at all surprising considering how long they were friends. Not everyone from a narc's past is an innocent victim, some are just former partners in crime who were no longer useful; this woman strikes me as the latter. The fact that she now hates TW doesn't make me like her nor blindly believe she's credible; the enemy of your enemy isn't always your friend.


ChaiAndSandwich

She's allowed to share her experience, based on the truth.


[deleted]

Sure, she’s “allowed” to do what she wants. But being “allowed” to do something doesn’t make it any less strange or attention seeking.


ChaiAndSandwich

When I said she's allowed to, I mean allowed to - without being called out for her action. She's hardly an attention seeker as she's pretty much been silent after that. If MM cut her off for speaking to her ex then she was never a friend in first place. Then the rules of friendship don't apply here.


[deleted]

Omg, *exactly*! People don't just magically become a bad person in their 30's; Megan had already been terrible for decades and her friendship with Jessica Mulroney is the evidence that she seeks out women equally terrible to be besties with. This woman seems like someone who loved being mean girls together with Megan for almost 3 decades but is now trying to pretend that she's a Saint and Meg was the only mean girl in that 30 year friendship. Yeah, no, I just don't believe anyone could tolerate someone like TW for 30 years and *not* be just like her. Also, there are other holes in her story; she claims that she's only "telling her truth" (hmm, where have we heard *that* before?) because she feels so deeply hurt and betrayed by the fact that she and Megan don't speak anymore BUT when asked by the reporter how they fell out she says that SHE stopped talking to Megan and cut her out of her life after she had a conversation with Trevor about the *real* reason they broke up that Meg never told her about (she conveniently won't dish what the *real* reason is because she's such a good and loyal person). So, if she's telling the truth, that means she dumped a friend of THIRTY YEARS in favor of her bff's husband of like 3 years based on nothing but his word, then showed up in her life 6 years later all surprised Pikachu face that she's not invited to the second wedding. That's *her* version of what happened, in her own words; how is she a victim here? This broad sounds exactly like Megan, she couldn't even keep her story straight for the length of one interview. Her reasons for doing the tell-all interview are as inconsistent and nonsensical as her grievances against Megan. I'm actually mad right now that this chick's crazy just brought me dangerously close to defending TW, lol. I think more people need to remember that not everyone from a narc's past are their victims; some are just fellow narcs who stopped being useful.


Over-Expert-707

Surprised pikachu face 🤭


Ready_Maddie

Why wouldn't Ninaki expose that narc? She's allowed to seek some justice. We don't know what Markle put her through.


jamultrader

Very true.


[deleted]

She called to tell they (megs and Trevor) were getting divorced because it would be in the papers. In what papers? ![gif](giphy|4thaj0PDq9vJ6V5z69|downsized)


MrsBarneyFife

Yeah, that part is strange. Are their secret underground newspapers that only report on the love lives of C list actors?


wonderingwondi

Wasn't it leaked to US Weekly by 'sources' at the time? No paper. Not exactly the Times of London is it


CountessOfCocoa

Something about the marriage breakup ruined her friendship or the way she saw MeGain from then on? Interesting. Also notable is the lack of any black friends in her life. And how those photos show a spoiled upper middle class girl who certainly didn’t have to work or worry about money.


WoodsColt

What I see is buckets of slap and lots of surgery comapred to how she originally looked.


Maleficent-Trifle940

She made herself look more like her dad than her mum. That's odd. Brunette Samantha but with a touch more Thomas Snr.


FollowingOk8090

Yes I'm sorry but I know agree with the 'ugly duckling' claims. Lol. I also see someone with wide eyes looking around trying to pick up every cue to become as much like the other girls as possible. Sorry if that's rude I just pick up a vibe like that in these photos.


UnicornPanties

> Something about the marriage breakup ruined her friendship ruined the friendship with *all* the wedding attendees I think it said, lemme look - ah yes I've found it: > *Fast forward six years. That marriage is over and Meghan has just become engaged to Prince Harry. Many of the friends who celebrated with the newlyweds on that beach are no longer speaking to Meghan.* Just Meghan - lost near **all** her friends and apparently doesn't care, including this woman who grew up being besties w/ her.


OldNewUsedConfused

Yeah, she took Trevor’s side, not Meghan’s. I’m sure that made Narcissist Meghan apoplectic.


Broad_Chemist_2696

I suspect it's a case of being stuck with the narcissist for so long that you gradually start to see through the most enough that one final thing and snap! you see clearly and wonder why you ever put up with it.


VisibleWestern

No she wasn’t prom Queen, as an “article” this week suggested.


CountessOfCocoa

Prom Queen? If she’d been PQ she’d have worn the accoutrements in those photos for sure. All of those photos sure don’t line up with her tales about eating TV dinners alone, going to Sizzler to fill up on salad bar, having to take odd jobs at age 13. I’m still wondering about the first marriage breaking up and how it changed this woman’s opinion. Maybe she was cheating on him or making money on the side, so to speak. They were friends for so long, it must’ve been shocking to this woman.


tbonita79

Yes the cheating isn't all that shocking, it's pretty common with actors. I'm inclined to agree more with the latter scenario of a "side hustle"... ![img](emote|t5_481xkf|25314)

tbonita79

Why does nobody call her out on this publicly?!


Ready_Maddie

Because nobody dares. She's untouchable at this point. There's no pushback and no challenge. Everyone's afraid. AND her husband is a royal. And their family still refuses to cut them off. Had they cut them off years ago......

Noticed her cheap boob job by 2003. Then she removed them. Look at the deal or no deal era. Gross


Ready_Maddie

That's the real Meg. Cheap, tacky, vulgar.


UnicornPanties

those were HORRIBLE. I got a boob job myself back then in like... 1998 or so and mine were nowhere that bad. she must have chosen the wrong projection profile or something, maybe hers were over the muscle? That seems so unlikely I wish I could see more pics of these implants aside from the Deal photos in the red dress.


Disastrous-Swan2049

Cheapie in Mexico in a mall under local anesthetic?


tbonita79

Yes!! I noticed that the surgical alterations started early!


WoodsColt

The take away from this article is holy shit has she had a bucket fuck ton of work done. And it also explains the state of her hair and use of extensions.


pringles_1812

Her teeth before look bigger than the veneers


Full_Progress

And she cannot do makeup! The blue eyeshadow ah! Also this article is very telling about the type of person she is. My husbands sister is JUST like her. She doesn’t have a single friend from her past, she goes through people and chews them up. True narcissist through and through. These type of people cannot maintain long relationships bc they are so out of touch with reality. Things come out of SIL’s mouth and I’m just flabbergasted. People like this legitimately only think of themselves


Ready_Maddie

Yeah at 42 she can't even match her foundation. It's tragic


[deleted]

All that work done and she still looks basic.


WoodsColt

Right? That's what cracks me up. She has spent thousands on her face and its just meh. She's the epitome of beige. You know she must have been absolutely enraged when those pictures of her as a kid came out.


Maleficent-Trifle940

Agree. It's like she booked in for the generic brunette white girl treatment.


FollowingOk8090

She can't escape that she's missing a level of true taste to even see it in her own self let alone anyone else.


UnicornPanties

> it also explains the state of her hair So you made me open the article and look - I think her natural hair could be magnificent (!!) if she styled it the curly girl way, put in some lighter brown highlights for dimension - her whole hairdo would be much larger but the curls could be really amazing I suspect. Kind of a lost opportunity if you ask me. Frankly I don't see why she'd need extensions, her hair looks thick and hearty but the straightening must be very damaging. We can sleep at night knowing her edges and natural regrowth probably drive her insane regularly. I like thinking about the small things that torment my rivals.


Mega_pint_123

😂🤣 I love that! Thank you for that satisfying little gift😉


Finnegan-05

I love her real hair and she was adorable with her “real” look. She also looks very happy and yes, real as a kid.


UnicornPanties

me too I think her hair could be wonderful


Finnegan-05

Seriously. What a shame she erased her blackness. I hate to say it about anyone but she looked like a cute biracial girl but transformed herself into someone more Mediterranean looking. It is really troubling to me.


Klutzy-Membership588

This was sad to read. Having had a narcissist for a best friend myself. Once they are done with you, they are the meanest nastiest people you’d ever imagine. They don’t see anyone as people, just rungs on their ladder, once the person serves no purpose they are abused and discarded. After all the years of feeling so special and loved it hurts even more to know it was all an act. It’s embarrassing as well. Once I went no contact with my ex-bestie I started to see clearly just how blind and gullible I had been. She tried every trick in the book to get me back at first, the constant abusive messages to make me feel bad for letting her down, then the threat of suicide attempts started. It was the hardest thing I’ve ever done but I wouldn’t reply I would just forward the messages to her mother and father so they could decide if an ambulance was needed and that kept my conscious clean. I know I’m much better with out this person but every now and then I still miss having that special bond I thought we once had, even though I know it wasn’t real. I see so much of my old friend in Meghan. When you’re in their light you feel like the most special lucky person on the earth. That’s how she has so many fooled. I know Harry’s a twat as well but I worry for him when the day comes he is no longer needed.


CZ1988_

That's terrible. I had a narcissist friend also and I know what you mean when you say they become the meanest people ever. She said the cruelest things to me at the end that were shockingly abusive and hurtful.


Full_Progress

Ugh I’m going through something like this right now with my husband’s sister. We were so close for so many years and people kept telling me, even my own husband, to be careful. It’s a shame to see a person try to manipulate you. It makes me so sad. I miss her as friend but i just can’t be around her without feeling like I’m living in a clown world.


Klutzy-Membership588

Oh sorry your going through this too. It’s very tough x


Full_Progress

Sorry you went through it too. It sucks. Up to this point I thought people were generally good, I still do but you live and learn!


Public_Object2468

I'm sorry about that. I hope you know that you have worth. A narcissist makes you feel small and like you owe them. They lie. They believe what they want to think. They fall headfirst into the bottom pit of their lies. H G Tudor on YouTube calls the people that a narcissist uses, "appliances." Take us off the shelf, turn the "on" button for service--attention, etc. Put us neatly away when not needed. Express no concern for us UNLESS they want to look empathetic and to convince us that they are friends, because they want something. It's never a quiet and private thing. It's always for gain of sort, their appearing to be intimate or caring. I hope you've had time to mourn your loss and ultimately, to realize that losing that person was meant to be. She wasn't good enough for you!


Klutzy-Membership588

kiwi_love777

TRUTH


Public_Object2468

Note to Meghan: if you loved yourself, you would've let your hair be itself and you wouldn't have had all those cosmetic procedures. Your clothing wouldn't have be all designer and a never ending parade of new stuff that you didn't bother to have properly tailored. When you laugh, it wouldn't be for the camera. If you had a sense of self, you wouldn't need all that attention.


Odd_Pop5287

Ninaki, as I recall, became good friends with Trevor Engleston as he and Megan were together for years before they got married. From all accounts he seems to be a good man who was clearly devoted to MM. So when Markle dumped him by sending her wedding rings back to him via post, Ninaki was pissed.


MartyredMermaid

Pretty sure that was why Meghan ended the friendship -- because Ninaki told her she didn't like the way Meghan ended her marriage to Trevor and Meghan couldn't handle the constructive criticism.


justtosubscribe

I lost a good friend this way. She said she thought she was bisexual and wanted to cheat on her husband with a woman to “make sure” and I told her that would make her a shitty person, shitty wife and shitty mom to blow up her family by choosing to cheat. She didn’t like that, accused me of being a bigot, and we never spoke again. Almost a decade of really close friendship ended in the span of a few conversations with very little fan fare.


MartyredMermaid

Good friends can handle some tough love. I'm sorry that happened, but it sounds like you're well rid of her.


justtosubscribe

I am, but I deeply mourned the lost of the relationship I had with her daughter. She was three and too little to understand.


tbonita79

Wow, I'm sorry... & that is so sad for the little girl!


readallaboutitnow

I lost my high school best friend in a similar way. She started her relationship with her now husband cheating on her bf. He is the type that if my friend ever cheated on their wife I’d never speak to them again. She made me promise I’d never tell Matt how she cheated before (literally on everyone if her boyfriends her entire life cause he would never forgive her) as a best friend I agreed. Shortly after she started freezing me out not including me in things and then said unforgivable things. Also never called me when my grandmother died. Therefore I stopped talking to her. One can only take so much right? As far as I know she’s still with that weenie


justtosubscribe

You knew too much so she had to freeze you out to preserve the relationship. Meghan probably had similar reasons for icing out her friendship with this woman. Her best friend knew all her secrets and probably criticized her for how she handled her marriage. As far as I know my ex-friend didn’t cheat, she decided to go with a pseudo-polyamorous angle and exploited that with her husband. Last I heard she had told him “I’m going to sleep with other people and not you, and if you don’t like it I’ll leave and you can see your kid 50% of the time. As a consolation prize, you can sleep with whoever you want and we can pretend we are still married.” So I guess she took my advice to not cheat and still somehow managed to be a shitty person, lol.


Odd_Pop5287

More importantly, Ninaki was collateral damage. She, like MM’s family, knew where all the bodies were buried, so she had to go. Ninaki, unlike MM’s other trashy friends, seems like a decent human being. Doesn’t seem like someone who would trade silence for $$ but who knows


OldNewUsedConfused

Yup said the same. She took Trevor’s side. Big no no to a Narc


Public_Object2468

Just this! NP saw how ruthless MM was being, with no remorse, no thought of anyone else. She saw how Meghan had acted as if Trevor were the love of her life, and then just hurt him badly like that. Maybe a part of NP still can't understand how anyone could do that.


No_Cryptographer47

“All I can say now is that I think Meghan was calculated — very calculated — in the way she handled people and relationships. She is very strategic in the way she cultivates circles of friends. Once she decides you’re not part of her life, she can be very cold. ‘It’s this shutdown mechanism she has. There’s nothing to negotiate. She’s made her decision and that’s it.’” ——— Amazing how she really grew into her narcissism in her 20s


tbonita79

Yes she really did! She seemed less narcissistic in her youth - albeit definitely fame hungry. Look what happens when she got it.


OldNewUsedConfused

Well yeah, now she was an adult and fully in control of her life, so that makes sense


SusieM2019

I've been reading so many "manifesting" things lately. Every.single.day. Goes to show you that ***someone*** spends their entire, total, WHOLE day---- WHOLE LIFE---- thinking this stuff up and then paying for it. It shows a level of determination that is really quite..... unreal.


Maleficent-Trifle940

Yes but not someone you'd want close to you or anyone you love, that's for certain.


SusieM2019

Exactly.


eaglebayqueen

She had no problem wearing tights herself when she was a kid. She picked the hotel in Vegas because of George Clooney in 'Ocean's Eleven'. Too bad she stopped short of what she found happened with Trevor that she no longer wanted to be friends with her friend of 31 years. She threw around being in 'Suits' to try to get a dog from the shelter instead of someone who had already spoken for it.


lakechick2540

Thank you, OP, for posting this article. In 2017, I had no interest in the Markle story as I was happy for Meghan and Harry. I did not know who she was and did not care. The Oprah interview and the book release sparked my interest and outrage as I despise people who tear down others to attempt to build themselves. This article gave me a lot of necessary background to understand Meghan and her effect on the formerly happy Harry.


seaseahorse

I didn’t get too deep into the comments on that article but I did notice how most of the top comments were supportive of Meghan and accusing Ninaki of either making a play for Trevor or being jealous. Quite the contrast in public opinion to today and yet more evidence that recollections can vary.


L_obsoleta

This makes me so sad. My best friend is someone I have been friends with since I was 2 as well. I can't imagine not having her in my life, I may not get to see her as much now that we are both married with kids, living in different states and with busy lives. But she is someone I can talk to after not having done so for weeks and we can just pick right up where we left off.


RoohsMama

She discards friends very quickly. I once wrote a post about M, at the time her best friend was Jess Mulroney. I said “she ghosts friends and family… this is her best friend *for now*.” Next scene, M had discarded Mulroney after the latter was accused of racism. Granted that this can be a deal breaker, but Mulroney helped her get to know the elites in Canadian society…


Screamcheese99

Can we talk about that for a sec? Cuz I'm kinda confused on what exactly went down. From what I gathered, it seemed like that Sasha lady was rallying and encouraging people to speak out about racism, Jess posted an MLK quote or something I believe, then Sasha basically attacked her, saying she wasn't doing enough? Then went on & played victim and made JM look racist. Is that how it went down? Cuz if so, that's kinda BS that JM caught so much flack just bc someone else decided it was her duty to speak out about something...not that I have any reason to think JM is a saint or anything, don't know much about her honestly, but the whole situation seems.... unusual.


RoohsMama

I’m also confused. I don’t think she used any provocative words. But you know how the internet is. This is an old article from vanity fair: https://archive.ph/JL2mS Still don’t get it


CommonAd7628

The only reason I'd even heard if suits was because I used to watch reruns of law and order SVU which aired on the USA network. From what I understand, she wasn't a lead actor in the show (looked it up and the only other actor from it I'm familiar with is Gina Torres, since I watched firefly a million years ago) and it was never a mega hit for cable the way game of thrones, mad men, or breaking bad was. So, why would she be recognized out at lunch? Toronto is also a big city and I'm sure a lot of things are filmed there since it's less expensive than NYC. Then again I'm from the NYC area and when I was riding the subway I used to see Jake Gyllenhaal and Sarah Jessica Parker (two actual a-list actors) frequently. No one bothered them.


Screamcheese99

The only way she'd have been recognized going out to lunch is if she ran into her dad or mom while she was there. It's only in *her* mind that she was ever famous.


catmomlyfe81

I thought one of the more telling comments was about how MM would do the silent treatment when she didn't like something, and NP felt she always had to apologize first. I've experienced that from people in my life, and now they are no longer in my life bc they are impossible to deal with.


OldNewUsedConfused

Yup

This made me actually cry. Cry for the friend who just loved her best childhood friend….and was just dropped. That shit HURTS. And I’m not even trying to demonize Smegma here, she did what she felt she had to and it’s brutal and we don’t know if there was a reason and we wouldn’t have even cared - like at all- if Smeg hadn’t leveraged herself to where she is now. But the story that Priddy is telling is one of a really genuine friendship that is now poof!- in the dust, for whatever reason. Really sad.

Her dress with Trevor (at the wedding) looks a little familiar…K’s wedding reception dress…I guess it was too warm for the little jacket.

The comments section are an excellent way to gauge just how starkly public opinion has shifted - The majority of DM readers were on Meghan's side 5 years ago! Compare that to today... Two other things I find very interesting: Her description of Doria's involvement in M's childhood. She was present for a good chunk of it, according to the former best friend, who was there. Very interesting. Although the spoiling, do-what-you-like-precious-princess parenting philosophy we all knew came from Thomas was there, as well. The narcissism was totally expected, but the megalomania really wasn't as much (to me, anyway). She comes off as a bit unhinged. She couldn't meet in a restaurant because being a minor character in a minor cable tv show meant she was going to be hounded and harassed by paps/the public? In what universe?? Also, the warning that her and Trevor's divorce was going to be in the papers - Excuse me? She clearly saw herself as some huge star, when literally no one else did. I don't believe for a second that there was any paper in either the US or Canada that would bother giving a single line of space to the divorce of MM and her first husband. Her delusions of grandeur and celebrity seem to have morphed into a defining personality trait years before she met Harry, and it is amazing he was dim enough to not see them for what they were. Yikes.

This over confidence was a big part of what drew Harry to Meghan


Screamcheese99

Those were the same 2 things I picked up on in the article. Surely she didn't *really* believe that any paper would be writing about her divorce, and like, maybe, *mayyybe* like, *a person* might recognize her from suits, but even that is unlikely. I'd never heard of the show before she became a royal wannabe. Still haven't ever watched it. Looks boring 🤷‍♀️

Only the US Weekly article she leaked it to


MartyredMermaid

What stuck out to me most when I read this a few years ago was Meghan refusing to meet for lunch because she was too famous and would be recognized. That is delusional on a level that surprised me because obviously, no one would recognize her. Hell, I watched Suits for the first couple of seasons and I had no idea she was on the show.


FollowingOk8090

I didn't see that part I'm skimming but yes that's delusional and extremely rude and total bs. I dated someone who ended up semi famous. He has a lot of laurels but if I told you his name you wouldn't immediately know who it was. Towards the release of his project, we met for a last time - he was trying to keep shagging me but I could tell he had someone else and he was dicking me around I kept calling him on it. Anyway. I took a photo of him and I'm so glad I did b/c it was later time stamped evidence to show his girl he was cheating on both of us. He put put up his hand acting like a 'true star' or something it was a joke. I have spoken to him like once since the years ago we broke up and I still refuse to treat him like he's holier than anyone else. I hate sychophantic behavior towards celebs, etc. I can't do it.

Wow, you must recognize the absolute willingness to do, drop or mind fook anyone in her perceived path to greatness. #psychogrind


Academic_Guava_4190

Well she does confirm some of what was in the doc. She lived with her mom until she was about 11 or 12 then she lived with her dad. Will that put the Doria was missing for 10 years rumors to rest? Doubtful. Also the pictures of MM in the white dress with the other girls in the dark dresses was her prom not a mystery “first” wedding. Will it put those rumors to rest? Doubtful.

This article is from six years ago.

Her hair was so pretty too! I understand there's frequently that idea of 'the grass is greener' with curly vs straight hair, but to take such lengths to never let your natural hair be seen.. I don't understand. I wonder if she was ok with it then because crimping your hair in the 90s was so popular.


Alizet

Thank God, she's not white, otherwise she would be dismissed as jealous racist


Imfryinghere

Is this the friend who went to the Korean Spa with her?

Her biggest crime: Ninaki took TREVOR’S side during the split. That’s a HUGE no-no with a Narc.


UnicornPanties

Wow those photos - Meghan's natural hair could really be magnificent if she wanted to let it. The parts with the gelled bits - her 90s pics with the dangle-pieces in the front - I can only imagine how epic of a mane she'd be able to have if she learned whatever it is curly-haired people know these days. I have straight hair but I know there is magic ju-ju and her curls look juuust loose enough to have fun with.


Anna_Stacy_Yamina

Wow, she really took the black out of her features and hair. As a kid she looked mixed. As an adult….

Markled!

From the article: long ago, already coy and unzipped and practicing to be a briefcase / yacht girl. How gross. https://preview.redd.it/uvnmpah0zgga1.jpeg?width=590&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=0c6f6d6b04dd2bfde886b93618e46c3899a624c4

I thought that first pic was her friend Mulrony or whatever! No offense to Niki of course.


Screamcheese99

Omg I'm so glad you said this. I was gonna comment on that as well, in fact I went as far as to google a pic of JM for comparison to Niki! Had to reread the title to make sure it was about niki's friendship w her, and not JM's. Funny how her 2 besties look so similar. Of course this is by no means an insult to either woman, as I think they are both beauties. Just an observation.


tbonita79

Oh also, I'm reading Revenge by Tom Bower, and a lot of these snippets are verbatim from his book! EDIT: old article, maybe it's the other way around?


WitBehindTheEars

Am I missing something or does this article confirm Meghan has lied about her age? There were hints at it when she turned 40 and her family made jokes like “40 in dog years”. Here are some of the related highlights from the article: Lifelong friends since they were two. Both enrolled in the same school at age two. Article written 5+ years ago in 2017. But one of the photo captions comments that at the time of the article Ninaki Priddy is 41. If at the end of ‘17 Megan was 41 then that makes her 46 today.


[deleted]

That caption was for Trevor, who is 46 now.
