Harry and Meghan - OP updated with Threadbanned Users 4/5/21

Good point on the radio silence from credible spokespeople. The whole Waity Katey thread really bore fruit in the end as William and Kate are going on almost a quarter of a century together. Survivorship bias suggests it will continue. Whatever the actual reality here is any divorce between the Sussexes would be a mess. There are two young kids and my guess is that custody of them post-divorce would be the driving factor. I think joint custody would be the result even taking Harrys openess into account. The same deal as with Diana in 1996 would be a solution. Between $10-20 million in a lump sum with yearly maintenance of half a million. Keeping it amicable for their kids. Harry would basically lose whatever personal wealth he has and would imo live back in the UK as a pariah. I don't think it would serve Meghan well to do tell alls. Money could run out and any maintenance payments might be predicated on strict agreements i.e. go do an Oprah 2.0 and they stop. Any potential romantic suitors would need their heads screwed on.

The only real winners in all of this whatever might happen will be the tabloids who will be having a field day with whatever stance/tactics are adopted by them all.

Even if they have or will split up I think she would prefer to be broke than to have ‘her truth’ ‘silenT or silencED’..

she is an energy vampire and a drama llama. She will find a way of being Wealthy alongside speaking her truth. Marrying up to a real billionaire will be in Her sights.

'Suits' is smashing all sorts of records on Netflix. Many are saying the reason for that is that it is a good show and Meghan Markle is a big draw. Why would Netflix want to drop her? And the British tabloids can't stop talking about her. Her ''brand'' seems to be very much in demand.

The tabloids would make you laugh really - some are reporting that that the Governor of California has blocked her phone number (who believes that nonsense LOL. As if Meghan Markle has only access to one phone) and another newspaper is saying that Joe Biden's campaign manager (and sister) has endorsed her for the White House!

omg that stuff about the polo ponies has made me sick… I never would have said he was capable of wanton cruelty.

I posted above and literally minutes later I saw this 😆

No eye contact, least not from her, he looks like he is trying. No claw touching his arm. If this was their rebuttal to the rumours its not convincing....maybe there is trouble in paradise.

Do you know the details of their divorce?

From what I read she ended their marriage by sending him back his.rings in the post. Harsh way to end a marriage!

I haven't seen any details about their divorce anywhere?

Everything is in the public domain about Harry now (no holding back in Spare). The Palace squashed nothing in the past, his every move was all over the tabloids. He had to get into the boot of a car to go to a doctor when his penis was frost bitten and not tell anyone in his family or staff that worked for the RF as it would have been all over the papers the next day. He has never had any privacy, he was used and abused by his own family to cover up their own shortcomings.

Any evidence to show that in the event of a divorce, it will be vitriolic?

My guess would be that between them they both cut ties with the royal family and have been sniping ever since about that falling out. Interviews, Books etc. Attempts at conveying their self-righteousness and truth. The tell would be the lack of personal accountability about their own behavior in that falling out. They are the victims. As such, in the event of a divorce and given their characters, that same impulse to give out their “truth” and play victim may result in any tit provoking an inevitable tat which which would then cause a cycle of vindictiveness between them.

I'm not sure what the point you are making about her previous divorce. Bearing in mind that the KCII is married to a divorcee and he is Head of the Church of England, I don't see how anyone could take issue over her being a divorcee and I don't think anyone could have when Harry's father was a divorcee himself!

My point remains that up to her meeting Harry (at a mature age it has to be said) no one had a bad word to say about her including her ex-husband!

I suggest you read this academic study (39K dissertation) on ''The Architecture of Racism, Sexism and Misogyny: A Critical Discourse Analysis of the Representation of Meghan Markle by the British Press.'' which will refresh your memory. Indeed, recollections may vary not just by the Royal Family, but also the British public on how Meghan Markle was treated.

Link to dissertation (which has been made available by the person who wrote it).

And just for the record, here is some of the conclusions:

When you say ''word was leaking out'' - where and who was leaking it out?

I see your dissertation and raise you a thesis, which is about the South Africa tour and compares coverage by BBC and The Sun. Of course, it was a time when the British Press and public were welcoming to Meghan - before the complaints and whining started "Nobody asked me how I was", "I should be getting paid for this", etc. It's a long read, but the key takeaway is

When Meghan's true nature came to the surface, some of the tabloids changed tack completely. And the rest is, well, history.

If you took the time to read even the conclusion of the dissertation I posted the link to, you would know that right from the very start of her dating Harry, the coverage of Meghan was racist and misogynist (all backed up by examples and references).

That study of the SA tour was fairly limited (14 articles I think in The Sun and BBC News). While mainly positive from the Sun, it was misogynistic (just covering her appearance, and always referring to her as a wife and mother - i.e., an appendage).

Lovely to see you back on the thread - I missed you- honest I did 😀

Justin Trudeau and his wife have split- there’s a number of obvious awkward moments over last two years on video which suggests things haven’t been well for some time.

It’s a hard one to call really- it’s only when you see couples regularly and in public that you can get to see the signs over time - Dianna and Charles gave up putting on a United front so it was easy to spot- the fact all these videos are pre recorded makes it harder to judge and their in person appearances are rare.

I just still feel and always felt she was just on an upward career trajectory trying to get to the A list level and she’s still trying- I don’t see the marriage lasting - she didn’t take help from the RF which essentially meant she wanted to do things her way only- Harry will only be retained as long as he’s useful but I could see her hooking up with a much older billionaire or multimillionaire - maybe a plastic surgeon in their late 60s who wants to live life now after a lifetime making money from rich old ugly ladies 😀

OK, provide evidence that opposes that research (that the coverage wasn't racist, sexist or misogynist from the very start). You can start here explaining this one: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/(Almost)_Straight_Outta_Compton (November 2016).

Are you suggesting that there's something wrong with being 'almost straight from Compton'?
