To be shocked about contracts for friends in another country, whilst accepting the same in your own country really should be posted on the mental health thread!
 
Genuine question, why is there so much hatred for Megan Markle? I don't get it or at the least I've missed something.

Royals innit. People get weird. I’d give more detail but I need to polish my Golden Jubilee crockery set.

Also it’s just something else to talk about. Look over there. Look!

Because she's a troublemaker and a disgusting hypocrite. She sees money and possibly political advantage in selling the Royal Family's confidences, the latest being in the interview with Oprah. Harry's too thick to see what's happening. Netflix too will want more from this couple for their £190 million deal than just Meghan reshashing her Suits role. They're after dirt on the Royal Family.

I'm not an out and out Royalist, but the behaviour from this snakelike couple towards Harry's family is eyewateringly low. I hope they lose their Sussex title.

So just to be clear, she hasn't yet sold out the royal family yet and we are in the territory of we think she is about to sell out the royal family?

She falls out with everyone in her life. First husband, father, all her aides. Apparently there was no one from her youth at her wedding apart from her mother, and no family member but her mother. She's ruthless and cuts people out of her life if they are no help to her reaching her ambitions. Lovely

What do you think she will talk about with Oprah? Knitting? Suits?

She's already caused big trouble for Harry's family by the way she and Harry cut themselves off. Not the doing of it, but the way it was done

I was just interested in whether it was done yet or not. She might be going onto Oprah to speak about her own life, certainly possible to do an interview and just give no comments to any question about the royal family.

They have cut themselves off from the royal family and obviously something went very wrong there. What was wrong with the way it was done? My recollection of the events were that:

They said they didn't want to do any royal duties
something about them feeling they were mistreated by the media
told they queen they were moving out
repaid monies for whatever place they were living in
****ed off to canada.

Maybe i'm being too simplistic about it but what in the manner was wrong with that apart from it breaking royal tradition as not many royals say that don't want to be following the tradition and sponging off the tax payer?

this has a bit more substance behind it. I can go with this
