Harry & Megan

[fallen-archie]

I am surprised that no one has raised last night’s programme on here. I watched it and tried to take an impartial view of what they have to endure. The work that they do is not like having a holiday as the spotlight remains upon them at all times. Of course they do not need to worry about when they will sleep or where the next meal is coming from, but seriously why are some in our nation so ridden with envy? Seeing Harry walking through the minefield that his mother did was a moving moment for me, his. Mothers well known struggles with shyness and celebrity are well documented, but will we ever learn? I sometimes despair over our attitude towards celebrity
But I guess that whilst we have folks on the streets it is unlikely to change!

I didn't watch the programme but I've read about it all and for them (and all celebrities) I think the best thing they could do is to do their own thing, go their own way and just shut up about it all! They should ignore all the criticisms of them, most of it is just jealousy.

They (and all celebrities) should watch what they say in unguarded moments with people outside their trusted circle because sometimes the slightest thing is pounced on and a mountain made out of a non-existent molehill.

They'd all get on better if they did all that!

In other words follow the example set by the Queen.

Sorry Megan - as a US TV celeb

You knew perfectly well

How the Tabloid gutter press works on BOTH sides of Atlantic

You came under the glare of the US ones for years

[astrologica]

She's not quite so popular since she's been making political speeches and going on about race and women's rights etc. That is a real turn off. And the Royals don't do politics.

It was the US Tabloids that first reported about Her 'Porn' Videos

They were actually clips from the TV show SUITs She starred in.

They called them Porn - that was first in the US, not UK

Well I watched Suits and was not aware of anything remotely pornographic! In fact I have just witnessed some tarts on the great British bake off which were much closer to the bone!
Why are we so judgemental about her? In many ways it was the same with Dianna despite her background and relative shyness, I again think it’s far more about envy and our obsession with knocking success!
