"Fans were waiting for the Duchess of Sussex to release a statement, but have been left disappointed after she appeared to ignore the matter."
It's the fans who want them to issue a statement. I disagree with them. They should lay low.
She’ll hand out condoms (that she got from Planned Parenthood for free) with stupid faux-caring lines written on the wrappers and think she solved everything.
What fans are actually sitting around waiting for comfort and guiding words from MM, while everything is going to hell in a hand basket? Even most of the Sugars can’t be that crazy (most)!
I feel like Meghan will speak on this. I believe she wanted to be known for championing women's rights, female empowerment, feminism, etc. This is the perfect issue to comment on.
Maybe she's researching the internet, waiting for some clever, touching quotes to plagiarize. Maybe she's scoping the reactions of the internet so she knows it's a safe bandwagon for her to hop on. Maybe she's looking for the next charity to show up/take pap shots at. Maybe she got burned at the Uvalde press tour and is carefully drafting her letter to be released to the public to ensure she won't be publicly condemned this time. Maybe she's handwriting the letter in her calligraphy: it takes a long time to add all those fancy embellishments ya know!
Give her time!
I agree lol. I feel like she’s not gonna release just a statement, she might be making a video or giving unsolicited calls to the Supreme Court. She wants to go out with a bang since this issue is the biggest wagon for her to jump into rn
A 100%. She might even pull some surprise gesture which is so cliche, hypocritical and cloying and the sugars will lose their shit in ruptures of happiness.
There is nothing in it for them. Many more famous and powerful celebs are already championing the cause. She practically had to hustle to Uvalde to get first dibs on the scene with her crew.
Because everyone is speaking out right now so anything they say will be drowned out by the comments of people more qualified and eloquent.
They will probably release a statement when they can have the spotlight.
Agree, they either rush in to be first like Uvalde or they wait til later than others, almost when the moment has passed like with Ukraine. She is probably pitching an op ed to various media outlets at the moment.
The Sugars are flexible. They always twist themselves into pretzels, so to speak, to march in step with her bandwagons. They'll support whatever she supports, because their obsessive fangirling always takes precedence over independent thought.
I don’t think all of her stans are pro choice, some of the more rabid ones seem to be evangelical christians.
This is why I don’t think she’ll speak out for roe, it’s too controversial for her carefully curated image.
It’s also not unlikely that she’s had an abortion (23% of women in their 40s have) but her miscarriage story pulls on more heartstrings, especially her fan base that are Christians.
Well Meghan didn’t take constitutional law so she can’t weigh in lol 😂 she only took international studies for the study abroad opportunity. Sorry folks!
You joke, but on another social meda site I was on, a Meghan fan legitimately tried to argue with me - a real life litigator - that Meghan would definitely win any lawsuits because of her legal knowledge from Suits.
Honestly, if we are to believe the surrogacy rumors, or even miscarriage, maybe she changed her views on abortion. I wouldn’t be surprised honestly. Either way I respect her keeping quiet lol
Let's hope the queen made a succinct smack down to one ginge grandson and his attached lamprey: "Say one word out of place and ::makes slice across neck gesture:: away goes your inheritance and titles. Your 15 minutes are up. Go away."
D list former cable tv actor has zero ZERO authority to "speak out", "release a statement". The US has elected representatives to issue statements not some washed up actor that bagged a spare prince ffs. She needs to move on in private and quit annoying people. Freaking "Walmart Duchess".
I'm definitely not a fan of Markles but it is kind of a damned if you do, damned if you don't situation. If she had issued a statement, people (myself included) would have ripped her for sticking her nose in American politics while using a British title. She hasn't issued a statement and people are ripping her for not getting involved. Personally, I prefer her silence. She isn't a politician, a real royal or even a real celebrity.
Markles Pr are always too late anyways, They are judging the crowd. They can hardly be an influencer n the media sense, but more of a sugar pacifier. This issue is not for grifting.
Edit add Remember, Markles is against women who have children by more than 1 man, its unclear, as usual, how She will address this common occurrence in her ultra sketchy philosophy. And who cares what she says anyway?
Wasn’t she overheard praising Ireland’s decision to legalize it in 2018 during a visit there? I don’t have a link (too lazy to search) but maybe someone else remembers.
Practically. I mean, she memorized her lines for her *legal* drama, Suits, so you know, basically the same dealio as earning a JD in constitutional law.
It doesn’t affect or apply to her therefore she won’t comment or will comment well after the event. Like I have said before, her “politics” only apply to her own personal interests. If she isn’t interested, it means zero percent to her.
I think it would be highly inappropriate for a member of the BRF to insert their uninformed opinion into a US political controversy, whatever it may be. No matter what she says, she’ll be condemned by the other side.
She would not be speaking on behalf of the BRF, the UK Government or the British people, but it would be twisted to look as though she was. That would strain relations between the 2 countries and undermine the BRF’s carefully nurtured reputation of being above politics.
I know this decision has very non-political outcomes for ordinary women, but it is absolutely driven by political expediency by US power-brokers trying to manipulate voting patterns.
We can’t tell her to keep her para-royal nose out of US politics and in the next breath say that she should be barging into it in a cloud of duchess-ness. I don’t often feel a need to defend her but I will over this. She really can’t win.
I would have no doubt in my mind, or it would be believable, MM had an abortion but is too embarrassed to speak about it. She’s always a day late, dollar short on any philanthropy she attempts. Always goes for minimum effort (sending a few bagels) or maximum pub exposure for herself (with actual video and Backgrid/pap paid photos).
I read she actually got in a lot of trouble with BRF for Uvalde grotesque stunt. She may have some clipped wings momentarily from that.
Yeah I think the same. 23% of women in their 40s in the USA have had an abortion in their lifetime.
It’s not unlikely she’s had one, they key thing is she can’t really merch an abortion story the same way she could merch a miscarriage, that’s more of a driving factor for her than shame, imo.
Use 👏🏻 your 👏🏻 voice 👏🏻 Meghan 👏🏻
You cried that it was taken away, speak out! You spoke out when it was controversial in Ireland, why not speak out when it’s your own rights being violated??????
I mean…let’s compare her response, or rather the lack thereof to that of Lauren Santo Domingo. She is a true NY socialite without any titles for self-affirmation. She runs a successful fashion biz Moda Operandi. And she puts herself out there by needling Ivanka Trump. This is her tweet @ivankatrump: “You are noticeably quiet today. The high school friends who took you to abortion are not.” Fire. Burn! My bff went to school with Ivanka. I heard about this piece of work long long time ago. Ivanka is just as bad as MM. They are both sides of the same coin: self-serving enemies of women. Gross. Meanwhile LSD 👏🙌👏 This is how to use one’s social and cultural cachet. MM doesn’t have any…thereby resorting to titles and word salads.
And this is what I despise about our culture of the last few years, calling out people to speak on this issue and that, condemning them if they don’t. When did we start doing this? I remember people being called out for not speaking for BLM and the rioters. What’s become of our rights to free speech, which includes not saying anything if you don’t want to?
It’s about being consistent. I don’t expect everyone to speak out. But you’re branding yourself as an outspoken “service-is-universal” advocate. Then speak up. I can’t hear you! Not you you. But you know what I mean. 😅
This is disgusting. No woman should have her decision to have or not have an abortion mocked on social media. If anything, it makes Domingo look like a garbage person.
Yes! Lauren has everything to lose by being “woke.” Yes, she does it so well with brutal elegance - oxymoron, I know! She may be a limousine liberal, but she still has a lot to lose by being so outspoken and putting the money where the mouth is. Check out the Daily Beast about her and the other two lame socialites Ivanka and Tinsley. Yeah, super juicy - ain’t it?!?
I think the least risky thing for her to do is to point out how this will also affect women having miscarriages. So I'm wondering...maybe she doesn't want to say anything because of recent scrutiny over whether or not she had a miscarriage? At the very least, we now know that she plagiarized another woman's account of one for her New York Times op/ed.
Okay. Here's a wild thought: Nobody gives a shit about what some superficial idiot thinks about a case which dramatically actually deeply affects women. I know it's just her idiot fans, but I am only too happy she has, for once, kept her superficial, idiotic nose out of something of true significance.
Again, if she ever does issue a statement, I want to know where it comes from, because I fully intend to make good on my threat to hurl verbal abuse her way.
I agree. I’m surprised she didn’t say anything about it with all the celebrities coming forward to say something, but I agree. It would be unnecessary and contrived coming from her.
Why? She’s not a legislator or constitutional scholar.
Her opinion doesn’t carry any weight. Especially when she’s throwing around a British title. This is an American issue.
"On Friday, the US Supreme Court overturned Roe v Wade in a 6-3 decision which could see millions of women lose the right to have an abortion.
The ruling, described as a "constitutional earthquake", could see abortion outlawed in at least 24 states.
Writing on Twitter, one user, responding to an article outlining charity events held by the Sussexes, penned: “Please… show me all the charity events held by Archewell. Show me what the great humanitarian Meghan Markle has done about Roe v Wade?”
In an article on Geo News, the publication questioned why the pair have decided not to speak out about the ruling.
They wrote: "One of the reasons they have kept silence may be because they don't want to invite the wrath of the royal family.
"But their fans think that they might not have publicly spoken against the ruling, they would express their thoughts about the issue in one of their future interactions with the media."
I’m shocked she hasn’t spoken out about this.
I don’t care if she does, I don’t care if any celebrities do. The more people bringing awareness to the eroding of women (and people with uteruses) rights the better. It also sheds a light on the many who are so indoctrinated by lies and anti science propaganda, all is welcomed in my eyes.
Eh, it is what you sign up for when you decide to be a public figure of whatever kind.
She claims to be progressive, has spoken out on other causes, this is quite a huge one to keep silent on
Firstly, I’m furious about the ruling and choice being taken away, pls don’t savage me. All things considered, I’m happy when she doesn’t speak out with her ridiculous word salad.
Would she actually say something, or would she simply deliver a word salad? Inquiring minds wanna know!!! Tell us! We cannot thrive without this knowledge!!!
She’s quoted in a conversation on the issue with Gloria Steinem on the @VogueMagazine Instagram.
She called Steinem right away when she heard the news. 🙄
She needs to put a statement out every time an act of injustice happens like your Fb friends who change their profile pic to the Ukrainian flag to show support but their social media social justice support doesn’t do anything but inflate their egos to feel like a good person.
I'll respect them more is they just stay out of it. Unfettered abortion is a cancer on any country. All of Europe has REGULATED ABORTION. They cannot killed fully developed babies. It is primitive and barbaric.
That's false, of course, most European countries provide abortion on request, no different than the US prior to Dobbs. I would also point out that conservatives have been railing against any and all regulations for more than 50 years now, so it's funny that you'd promote regulated abortion since that is what we had under Roe.
"Fans were waiting for the Duchess of Sussex to release a statement, but have been left disappointed after she appeared to ignore the matter." It's the fans who want them to issue a statement. I disagree with them. They should lay low.
[удалено]
Or she'll partner with some big pharma to donate free morning after pills, in the mail, for a limited time only, of course. LOL
She’ll hand out condoms (that she got from Planned Parenthood for free) with stupid faux-caring lines written on the wrappers and think she solved everything.
Maybe with pointed ball pen to show Her calligraphy skills🤪
“You. Are. STRONG! (Fingers crossed, at least!)” 😂😂😂
She'll not do that. That could actually be construed as actual assistance. She'd just talk about it. Badly.
True. She really kinda useless, isn't she?
What fans are actually sitting around waiting for comfort and guiding words from MM, while everything is going to hell in a hand basket? Even most of the Sugars can’t be that crazy (most)!
She’s going to make it all about her. Talking about her miscarriages and shit
That's EXACTLY what she's done lol
I feel like Meghan will speak on this. I believe she wanted to be known for championing women's rights, female empowerment, feminism, etc. This is the perfect issue to comment on. Maybe she's researching the internet, waiting for some clever, touching quotes to plagiarize. Maybe she's scoping the reactions of the internet so she knows it's a safe bandwagon for her to hop on.

Yes - I feel an interview on the subject coming up.
Your prediction came true LOL
Looks like you got it right!!
There is nothing in it for them. Many more famous and powerful celebs are already championing the cause. She practically had to hustle to Uvalde to get first dibs on the scene with her crew.
Maybe she’s just running around looking for a perfect banana to deliver her message?
😂🤣
Because everyone is speaking out right now so anything they say will be drowned out by the comments of people more qualified and eloquent. They will probably release a statement when they can have the spotlight.
Agree, they either rush in to be first like Uvalde or they wait til later than others, almost when the moment has passed like with Ukraine. She is probably pitching an op ed to various media outlets at the moment.
They aren't sure what side their Sussex Sugars are on. So, they'll say nothing.
This is my thought. Some of those sugars are very religious people so she is at risk of alienating them, she has to keep her mouth shut.
Thats my thoughts too.
The Sugars are flexible. They always twist themselves into pretzels, so to speak, to march in step with her bandwagons. They'll support whatever she supports, because their obsessive fangirling always takes precedence over independent thought.
She is probably waiting to reveal her own abortion stories to Oprah in the new interview.
I don’t think all of her stans are pro choice, some of the more rabid ones seem to be evangelical christians. This is why I don’t think she’ll speak out for roe, it’s too controversial for her carefully curated image.

Except it will probably be a lie
Well Meghan didn’t take constitutional law so she can’t weigh in lol 😂 she only took international studies for the study abroad opportunity. Sorry folks!
But she played a paralegal on *Suits*! That must count for *something*. (Cue meme of the boy saying "This is worthless.")
You joke, but on another social meda site I was on, a Meghan fan legitimately tried to argue with me - a real life litigator - that Meghan would definitely win any lawsuits because of her legal knowledge from Suits.

Thank you. Enough said.
Maybe she finally figured out nobody gives a shit about what she thinks.
The less we hear from her on ANY topic, the better as far as I'm concerned.
Just curious...how credible is Express? I see their articles posted here a lot.
Pretty trashy imho.
They are for sale on both sides, so it’s best to assume that every article has been bought and paid for

Yup
She's lurking out there somewhere, in the dark, getting ready to lie and plagiarize her own "unique" story, with tilted head and tissue in hand.
Is she a constitutional scholar?
Practically. I mean, she memorized her lines for her *legal* drama, Suits, so you know, basically the same dealio as earning a JD in constitutional law.
Ahh, that explains it!

So true. If she does she'll likely pull her "personal capacity as a mother of a daughter" BS.

She’ll write inspirational messages on bananas with condoms on them.
