130. It is just the craziest reactions to her..

May 2022

I think racism is a factor for sure.. so is her being an American.. and the British press still blames Wallis Simpson for the abdication in '36, and for some unholy reason seem to want to take all that out on Meghan.. I wish to hell she would not go back.. it is just not worth it to either of them..but family is family and you do the best you can..If no one sees her, dollar to doughnuts they will be howling 24/7 that she has been forbidden to make an appearance.. If she makes an appearance.. she is upstaging the queen.. in between times her family will be screeching about how they have been abandoned (not for a second recognizing the unending attacks they do on her and Harry)... ( My personal opinion) they should never let their kids within a mile of those people (her Dads family).. users does not even begin to describe them.. its crazy.. but as an American she can express herself anyway she wants.. and Harry as her husband living in this country has the same right..
