    No one has an answer for that, do you know?

    As you see people started filling these spaces before she arrived. A grey hair women shifted from her place because of jeans!

    I would hate, if this happened to my mum.

    In 2016 in Wimbledon, she was told to keep her hat down, during a match, so she knew the protocol: smart closing, no hats in royal box. Yet in 2019, she wore both. And she had people employed to remind her about the protocol like PA.

    Perhaps she believed how she was dressed was smart, she looks smart to me, she doesn't stand out from anyone else around her.

    Anyone knows, what smart means. Have you ever been in any golf club?

    There has been no reason reported for the empty seats, you're looking at a picture and making assumptions.
    If people where made to move on Meghan's say so do you not think she would have been annihilated in the press for it.

    I think you are being deliberately obtuse on all points being made to you.

    No golf wouldn't be my thing.

    Jeans could sneak in at smart casual but highly subjective, jeans are never appropriate where the dress code is 'smart'.

    Well, you asked, why she was not liked by people before her departure...

    So either way they are not anti title.

    But press was correct reporting that they had resigned from Earl title

    No I knew why she wasn't liked by some especially when people took an example like your picture above and wrote their own narrative.

    I said I couldn't see a reason why they were disliked.

    The dress code for the Wimbledon members circle, where she was seated specifically says no jeans.

    They didn't take that title but they didn't refuse all titles.
    The press tried to put the spin on it that once again Meghan and Harry were rebelling against royal protocol by not giving Archie a title when that wasn't the case they were still discussing the whole Prince title debacle in private.

    I found a picture showing the guy taking the selfie.

    It's the man in the front row. Two rows infront of Meghan. ....the picture shows him standing up , back the court with his arms outstretched over the seats, right infront of Meghan's face.....it does look like he's taking a picture of her and the phone screen is facing the court so no way of knowing it was a selfie.

    It was day 4 on court 1 , so the seating area may have been naturally empty especially for the Williams match.

    Cleared this up for you. He's taking a selfie with the court behind him.

    There's always a way of knowing.

    I don't see the point to discuss it with you any further...

    That's why I attached pictures to help you see it then.

    But you don't know the context of the picture.

    Have you seen that pic of Prince William, from one angle it looks like he's giving the finger from another you can clear see he has 3 fingers up.

    But she hadn't intended to sit in the members section, she wanted to sit with her friends.

    Some of the posters posting abuse here here would do well to watch the Caroline Flack documentary. It's on now.

    Constant abuse of a person has to have an impact on their mental health.

    Yeah, she probably smelled ugly that's why people left this empty space around.

    I absolutely believe that it has.

    Well at least you'd have a valid reason for blaming the empty seats on her then.

    Yes but the screen was pointing away from meghan and her security team so no way they knew it was a selfie without actually asking the guy at the time.

    Now considering there was him and another pr person asked to not take pictures (which the palace has confirmed that they often do ask this when not on official duty ,so the royal family/friends can enjoy themselves) and we've heard about it. I would find it odd if 40 people were asked to move and we didn't get a few people coming out to say they had to give up their seats. There are other empty seats no where near them.

    If you wish to believe that someone who is not only working but is on maternity leave is still on duty then so be it.
    Either way I can't see that she did anything wrong at Wimbledon, I mean if wearing jeans while out with friends is where the bar is being held for Meghan no wonder she falls short in so many people's eyes.

    It's the royal box in Wimbledon. Everyone knows or should have an expectation of a certain level of dress code that would not include jeans. It seems like Meghan was just constantly challenging every norm and convention in the royal institution. Each one of them on their own are small and petty but added up they paint a picture of a difficult, hostile and selfish woman who refuses to accept any blame or responsibility or compromise on anything.

    Right so no abuse for Prince Andrew then. Got it. Be kind.

    Interesting that you deem Caroline Flack in the same bracket as Prince Andrew.

    But she didn't go to sit in the royal box though, she went to sit with her friends and watch another friend play during a private socialising occasion.

    She seems to have bought into lots of the 'I'm a Princess' sh1t when it suited her. IMO.
