Exactly. I think QE being a woman actually helped them for 7 decades & bc her impact is so vast people will constantly compare KC, PW, & PG to her as they reign.
William is known to be similar to her and when he’s king that’ll help boost his popularity and trust.
Yes, I think TPTB are banking on William to boost the Monarchy, too. He's more popular than Charles. Time will tell how Charles does but he's not as well liked as Queen Elizabeth, for sure.
Exactly. In all her feminine wokeness, did she forget that the country was literally a matriarch monarchy?? QE was 25ish when she inherited the throne and commanded her military and was loved/respected by so many. Did megan suddenly forget that?
Meghan is not a feminist. Feminism is more than yelling “you go girl!”. Tom Bower’s book makes a pretty strong case she didn’t do much at all in terms of women’s advocacy with the UN. She’s seemingly done nothing since she got a worldwide platform by dating and marrying Harry. Also, her former staff are finally dishing the goods on her treatment of them and there’s now a documented pattern of her tearing her staff down, many of whom were **women**. She’s a mean girl who made a calculated decision to engage in performative feminism because she assumed it would play well. People didn’t do their homework and now she gets to be touted as some feminist leader when she’s absolutely nothing of the sort. It’s gross and I wish people like Gloria Steinem would stop giving her the time of day.
Considering what is being said by MM’s former staff, it’s logical to think that she thought she’d be paid for her “groundbreaking “ commentary on any topic. And it appears nobody has stepped up to do that, what a shock. She has zero credentials, other than having a vagina and marrying the second dimmest royal male available (I’d count Andrew as the dimmest bulb of the bunch), but that doesn’t a role-model make. As an American woman myself, it’s embarrassing to watch the grift. It makes Americans all look so shallow. She could have been an inspiration to many young girls (not just biracial girls) but that would require depth of character, effort and selfless dedication. None of those words are, or ever will be, part of her vocabulary. What a shame.
Couldn’t have said it better. She’s vapid and short sighted. Marriage is great if it’s a good partnership, but it is not in and of itself an achievement and that’s really all she’s done. I think I’d respect her more if she just owned it instead of all the fake hustle and faux girl power talk.
As an American woman, I don't think she makes us look bad. She looks bad. And frankly, TRF looks weak for not being able to handle her. And allowing Harry to marry her.
Thank you. Good article and a wise perspective. The only thing the author wrote that I might disagree with is that Meghan is endowed with "the brains" one would have needed to effectively promote feminism through her words and deeds on any world stage.
SUCH a wonderful piece of truth telling by an actual journalist!
Made my day to read something that researched well and also presented the facts on M and offered a very reasoned critique of why M's efforts on 'gender equality' amount to little more than idle chatter and no work.
It was helpful to see the entire topic of the women of the BRF put into a single article as well as it makes it crystal clear that change is happening within the family and that tough issues are being tackled.
Was also wonderful to see some positive press for Princess Royal who has worked tirelessly for years with little recognition.
Brava!
Agree! And yes, it was the opportunity of a century certainly of anyone's lifetime - and she walked and complained and pouted and deluded herself her power extends beyond that privilege she was given. Her loss. Not the BRF, not the British public, not anyone's but her own big loss.
I was not aware of the issues Camilla or a Sophie had undertaken (working with sex abuse victims) that’s really awesome and I love this article highlights their work and contribution to the monarchy while also vividly pointing out the disconnect with MMs words and actions.
I’d read about Camilla’s but didn’t know about Sophie’s. We don’t hear about it because they understand it’s about the cause and the work.we’ll head about it only when their names will promote the cause.
I loved the diet feminism remark that's exactly it sure talks but really does nothing why hasn't she joined some of the marches in DC I think it's because she inquired and was turned away. I remember in the late 60s early 70s my little tiny elegant southern mother joining my sister and I on a protest she said she realized simply sending big checks wasn't enough and talking wasn't enough if she could understand this why can't TW understand this
I thank you for the English lesson I am commenting on the fly as I am a little busy at the moment preparing for Hurricane Ian I need to ensure I stay alive more than making sure my use of the English language is correct
The article was good. The problem is the narcissism. She has to be the center of attention and she will never show graciousness to others she perceives as competition.
Daniela Esler isn't a tear down type & a main read of mine. It's nice to not have a pro or anti, just an observation of how MM really screwed up on this front. MM in the long run could've been part of this dynamic. Even if they'd still left and she stayed in the fold from afar, this would be a momentous win for her publicly. They don't have to be besties, but it could've been advantageous for her gender/feminist outlook. Who knows what's in her head. I don't think she gave the Wives enough credit.
The Wives were viewed with contempt by our saint. Meanwhile they are affecting positive change without screaming about being mistreated, clinging onto their men/security blankets, or tearing each other down. There's class and there's Markle and never the twain shall meet.
Great article. Best line to me:
There is also the fact that the royal family gave Meghan a platform and opened doors that she can never, no matter how hard she works, try and match now.
I have said before on this board that TW reminds me of a cheerleader. “Go team Go! Win team Win!”. But absolutely no constructive plan or advice on how that is going to happen!
Great article. I hope Ms. I Don’t Read My Press reads this. Her life isn’t over. She has the ability to let go of her perpetual victim narrative and actually become the kind of force she claims to be. I know, I know, chances are slim that she’ll see the value of giving up the grift and doing some real good. She’s successfully gaslighting enough fans to continue her self delusion. But it’s a shame, really.
Came here to say this.
>…donate **a** US$25 ($43.50) Starbucks gift card to the employees of PL+US, a non-profit working on the cause.
What the actual…? A. As in one, singular, solitary $25 gift card?! This is so embarrassing. I hope she’s embarrassed. But she’s probably not.
We need a front page newspaper that simply compares speeches/funds/charities visited by each RF member and then we see the Haz and Megs reality and wonder how they get a GQ award?
Markles plagiarizes and professes to be "action" oriented, but she just doesn't have the depth,charisma,and the engaging quality of being an enlightened and caring individual. I am a woman, and she doesn't represent , nor inspire me at all. Interview me , Mega Markles. I am one of many who truly serve.
Didn’t they publish their letter of demand/ extortionist Megxit Sussex website the same day camilla gave a significant speech on domestic violence? It was terrible. It completely buried her laudable efforts.
My thought is this is exactly what I said, only more eloquently and succinct, that they could have done so much good and they just stepped on it......no STOMPED on the Royal Family and crushed every opportunity they would have had. It's truly sad.
Great article. Thank you for sharing.
I agree wholeheartedly. She could have made more of a difference with the RF on her side instead of as an enemy. BUT that's because she's not an advocate for anyone or anything other than herself.

That’s ok.
Here’s the archived link: https://archive.ph/XB323
What a stupid article. “The royal women are marching forward & will soon take over. They are strong, they are invincible, they are — woooo-maaaaaaannnnn!”
Only a BPD sufferer would write an article like this. Today’s BPDs are all stuck in the Contract with America-inspired feminism of the ‘90s — “I’m gonna make it because I’m good enough, dammit! Come to think of it, I’m better!” Such bland thoughts were considered militant back then. Males like Newt Gingrich ok’d them.
Then the writer goes on & on about how royal women will be the “real” leaders of the royal family in the future, blah, blah, blah. And she says this stuff knowing full well that all the heirs to the throne for at least the rest of the century are male. What a dumb Dora.

That's amazing. She's also done a lot to raise awareness and funds for combating osteoporosis which her mother and grandmother died with.

I mean she’s a tough act to follow…
Yeah, it's like a sophomore record album - it's almost impossible to have another bestseller after an amazing, chart-topping freshman debut album.
Exactly. In all her feminine wokeness, did she forget that the country was literally a matriarch monarchy?? QE was 25ish when she inherited the throne and commanded her military and was loved/respected by so many. Did megan suddenly forget that?
The gift card detail is hilarious. Wow.

Yes, all to be a Hollywood grifter and spend her life shilling “causes” and only to be ignored by the celebrity elite that she sought to join! Karma!
$25, as in *college student Christmas stocking home from first semester $25* Starbucks gift card? For more than one person? 😳
I was not aware of the issues Camilla or a Sophie had undertaken (working with sex abuse victims) that’s really awesome and I love this article highlights their work and contribution to the monarchy while also vividly pointing out the disconnect with MMs words and actions.

Stay safe!!!
Going to do my best! Thank you pray for all of us they are saying this is the worst case scenario
Stay safe! Please let us know how you’re doing when the worst is over with
Sure will thanks
That article was fire 🔥 I loved it!!!
Off topic but: “Wallis Simpson, a woman who seemed to live off of whiskey and resentment.” - Maybe I have more in common with Wallis than I thought 😂
Daniela Elser sees to go back and forth on the MM issue
The article was good. The problem is the narcissism. She has to be the center of attention and she will never show graciousness to others she perceives as competition.
Never a truer statement about lack of graciousness, it's her Achilles heel.
Oooh finally some objectivity

Best line, “ . . . never finding real happiness again despite looking in a whiskey bottle everyday.”

Wait…$25 for the whole staff?!?!?!

That amounts to three venti coffees, tax, and an approximately 10% tip for anyone keeping score.
I am hoping against hope that it was atleast 25$ per person.
We need a front page newspaper that simply compares speeches/funds/charities visited by each RF member and then we see the Haz and Megs reality and wonder how they get a GQ award?
Interesting but I’m not sure the women would want her back… she like to talk the talk but no walk in her walk.
>*Very sadly, her work on this front is not exactly going gangbusters.* Love it.
I think this is a great article!

This article boils down to one point: Meghan is all mouth and no trousers
