@snowy I was thinking of Grace Kelly and Monaco.
Yeah I got that from @canefan 's post but thought that Wallis was another. She was described as a "socialite" but seemed to follow the general theme.
She always seemed to see the royal family as a vehicle to increase her platform. As opposed to being part of something bigger and working within it. Once she realised it wasn't what she thought it would be she checked out

I have no love for Meghan at all, I think she is extremely calculating and poor Haz was sweet and dumb and ripe for the picking. However, it is laughable that the press and the Palace keep going for her while instructing Prince Andrew to just step back a wee bit until the nasty matters blow over.
I don't blame Harry for bailing on that family, fuck be involved with all of that. In fact I'd say Meghan was a nice ticket out for him.
He's on a hiding to nothing really. And coloured by what happened to his mum, you can see why he would want out
LOLz.
Or.... “racist!!!”
One or the other, maybe both. -

I'm also of the opinion that she has misjudged public opinion, and the loyalty to the Royal family, Liz in particular.
Misjudged UK public opinion, but probably not US public opinion I suspect.
Yeah, could be right. But even then I suspect there's plenty of Tanks who see through her.

I'm looking forward to the minute this bloody interview isn't plastered everywhere. You just know the truth is somewhere in the middle.
The hilarious thing about Americans screeching racism, is that if she wasn't a royal duchess but still an actress, they would happily shit on her. "she's ours! Only we get to criticise her looks/weight/wardrobe/make up/words/partner, damn it!"
-
The irony is that the ex-Royals have cast themselves as the rebels within the Windsor clan and yet it is their ties with the Royal Family and the UK Crown that largely give them their notoriety.
I suspect the interview will be mostly dull stuff (but sleakly packaged) that's already in the public domain.

Meghan claimed Kate made her cry not the other way around.
She says her and Prince Harry married three days before the public wedding. (Think he said this already.)
The most explosive bit is that she accuses members of the Royal Family (unnamed) of being concerned about Archie's skin colour before he was born.
She says Archie had HRH and full security taken from him while she was pregnant . (Not true. I remember it being announced before Meghan was on the scene that Prince Harry's children would only HRH once their grandfather was king)
She claimed that she asked the Palace for medical help because she was feeling suicidal and was denied.
She having a girl.
Harry claims Prince Charles stopped taking his calls.
Harry, perhaps unsurprisingly, hates the UK tabloid press.
Harry feels let down by his father. Harry says his family cut him off financially. -
@sparky I'm not watching, but a fuckton of comments on twitter, and whew. Not sure how the Palace are going to spin out of this one. All the Meghan is a bully stuff looks pathetic next to these claims, plus their complete lack of action against Andrew.
-
@mokey I'm not watching either but summarising what is on Twitter. More explosive and damaging than I was expecting. But these are all claims. I wonder how much of this will stand up once potential eye-witnesses wake up?
I have little doubt that Meghan was the victim of racism in terms of her treatment by some of the UK tabloid press and some of Harry former friends from the days when he used to dress up in a Nazi military uniform for fun. Very hard to know if her description of how Senior Royals treated her are correct or not.
