I have no problem with Harry. If he wishes to make stupid comments in America, then he will reap the results. Megan on the other hand, is a mediocre actress that seems to be attempting to capitalize on her blackness. She is acting the part of the victim. She wishes to stay in the spotlight and seems desperate to the point of burning all bridges behind her. It even appears that she is willing to sacrifice Harry to further her agenda. That's just my view of the whole matter. I really don't pay much attention to it, except where it seems to push itself into my focus on other interests. I never put much stock in Royalty and even less in Hollyweird actors.

Had a lot of respect for Harry's military service, and his support of the Invictus Games.
Lost all respect of him as a person after his recent outbursts on second rate chat shows, and in the general media.
You do not insult or denigrate your family in public, however high or low your perceived lineage.

I equate this couple with the Kardashians.
Must say - I have never seen any interviews or utterances or videos or much of anything re these folks. Reminds me of leafing thru "Entertainment Weekly, Us Weekly" in the Drs' waiting room years ago. EVERYTHING was for publicity, keeping the Brand alive, self promotion, and primarily $$$$. AND even 'negative publicity for these folks is wonderful - works their magic.
I prefer to use my time more productively and more interesting, like meticulously cleaing the dimples on my golf balls with q-tips.

I don’t care at all about any of the Royal Family , there all a bunch of selfish louts . I come from generations of Irish Catholics from Belfast who suffered from many injustices in there fight sometimes peacefully and sometimes violently for a free Ireland and to end the discrimination that Catholics have experienced in the North of Ireland

No, i do not like them. they claim to want privacy, yet they are constantly throwing themselves in our faces. I love the Brits, & these 2 are doing their best to bring the monarchy down. Harry appears to not be the brightest bulb & allowed 'wokeness' to show complete disrespect for his grandmother & the passing of Prince Phillip. But that's not enough! -now it's a weekly/monthly series of bash the Royals.
Then Harry cracks me up by saying the British media was too toxic so he came to the US, LMAO! he has no idea how savage US social media is-he'll be retreating to his safespace in no time. On the other hand, Kate is the real deal- William made an excellent choice. :popcorn:

I've stopped following Harry and Meghan, if they don't want to participate in Royal life anymore that's fine, they can both get jobs and live like the rest of us do. Bashing the Royal family is not a "job". I haven't watched Oprah in years, I used to love her show until she started to get political.

Meghan, Duchess of Sussex - Wikipedia (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meghan,_Duchess_of_Sussex)
They both do a lot of good works but Duchess Meghan should have, at least, expected a lot of push back from the more conservative members of the Royal Family. Good to see that Prince Harry has her back though. More power to them.
Prince Harry, Duke of Sussex - Wikipedia (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prince_Harry,_Duke_of_Sussex)
There is a huge interest in the British Royalty in the US. A lot of this is about ratings on TV for commercials.
As to foreign and domestic UK policies, the Royals have little say in any of that as far as I know. That is in the hands of Parliament and the rest of the UK government.

They are people of interest, in more of a curiosity sense than an actual caring sense. I've always had a passing interest in the history of English rulers, from the King George of the Plantagenet family on up. I'm a fan of learning about them. I'm also a fan of Harry's founding and patronage of the Invictus games. I'm also a fan of Meghan and Harry's participation in Project Angel Food.

On the other hand they bring tourists into England, tourists with lots of money.

I don't love them and I don't hate them. I just don't care about them or just about any other celebrities. Their lives and their opinions don't impact me in any way, so why should I invest any energy in caring about them? I have family, friends and former co-workers who actually are important to me, so I put my energy in caring about them instead.

She is a manipulative, malicious entitled female who has sucked Harry into her “Im the victim” show. He is a spineless shell of a man with no respect for family or tradition. You want out of the family.? Good, go! You want the media to stop slamming you? Stay away from the cameras. She claims she was abused and neglected by the Crown.. When you have nothing to back up your claims? Toss that race card around! Of course comments were probably passed about the babies possible darkness. Doesnt make anyone a racist. Im sure many if not all mixed marriage couples wonder what skin tone their baby will be and so does their families.
She knew she would be in the public eye when she married him but did it anyway and now cries, “Im a victim”. “i wanted to die”. Go back to your mediocre actress job and take some classes. Your acting is lousy

Sadly they mocked their country and disrespected the queen.These two will be forgotten in England as well as here so long as the media stops presenting their opinions, good or bad. It seems Harry had a good thing going in England and she came into his life and as the world can attest to she destroyed him. I predict a divorce.

Very skeptical. Harry is a spoiled immature royal brat who has been bewitched by the evil Megan. She's had a false contradictory agenda from the beginning. Just my opinion and you know what they say about those. Lol. If it is privacy they want then just go away. Oh but you can't milk the system for millions like that can you

I was wondering how long he thinks he can keep repeating stories about his dead mother. Lots of repetition! So he has to keep coming up with something new and attention grabbing thus the stuff he's been vomiting up lately bashing his family. This seems to be the way for them to become "financially secure". Pathetic pair of complaining privileged brats.

No. She is just another American divorcee embarrassment, attracted to the spotlight & using it to manipulate others & further her agenda. He is a damaged weak soul. Both should keep their months shut. Especially when they whine about privacy & then suck up to the media. Can’t have it both ways.
I don’t watch Oprah & certainly would not pay to watch any of the interviews or programs they are on.
The House of Windsor does far more good works than that pair ever will.

In April, 1775 our ancestors got sick and tired of the British monarchy and basically kicked their butts out of our country. Now we are putting up with them again for some reason. For a lot of reasons our culture is upside down, and Harry and Meghan are front and center. But like all things popular culture, this too shall pass. But they will get rich(er) from it all.

Instead of celebrating spoiled people of extreme privilege (or those skilled at pretending to be someone else (actors), or grown men who still play with balls (athletes)), let's celebrate our scientists, engineers, doctors, first responders, financial risk takers (business owners), and everyone who makes an honest living and takes care of their family and neighbors.

I have NEVER understood why people look up to "so-called" famous people like the royals, sports stars, Hollywood stars, and other elites. At least, sports stars and Hollywood stars had to work at their profession to become stars. The Royals are Royals just by luck of birth. I can't look up to luck-of-birth people. Someone might as well look up to me as the Royals. I don't understand that concept and also the idea of "autographs". Would having Einstein's autograph make me a genius or even 1 brain cell smarter? Would having Brad Pitt's autograph make me more attractive to the opposite sex? I doubt it. So, ALL these elitists do NOT float my boat in any way. They are NOT meaningful to my life. Would life go on without Opera, Lebron James, or some soccer star. yes, I think so.
I would really like it if someone could explain to me why other people go Ga - Ga over elite, "famous" people. I would like to know what I am missing?

I am guessing you don’t have family that has chosen the gift of a child, no matter what race parents and grandparents are.
Skin tone is not what we ever wondered about. We worried about if they would be healthy, would they survive if born prematurely, would they inherit a cardiac or kidney issue.
But never did anyone in our family wonder what color eyes, hair, or skin tone they could be born with.
But it’s nice to know in today’s world people would think just as you have posted skin tone is important to them.

I had never heard anyone ever when musing about their child to join the family ever say anything bad about color but in ours it is discussed. Wonder if this child will sunburn like Robert or have those blue green eyes like Gretchen. Wonder if this kid will have the beautiful coloring of the Italians in our family or look like the Germans. I hope he or she doesn't inherit MY STUBBORNESS, but maybe I'd be pleased if it got a little of Graylyn's intelligence...........Just because people talk about where the dimple would be or if the child will have VERY curly hair and be dark or fair doesn't mean that is NEGATIVE. I think Harry is jealous at being second in line behind William. I think Meghan hasn't been a person who read much about the reality of the royal family and the manners and the accepted public behaviors of the Royal Family before dating one of them.
