“So is that what you’re talking about?” asked Oprah. “It brought back memories of that?”
William, for his part, felt just as strongly about Meghan and the need for her subversive “agenda” to be removed from the operations of the British monarchy, which she did not appear to understand or respect. He certainly wanted Meghan removed, for a start, from the hitherto harmonious joint household that he and his brother had operated together for the best part of a decade. William simply did not want her or Harry around any more.
When trying to define the moment that marked the decisive rift with his brother William — the break-up and actual separation of the joint household they had established together in 2009 — Harry would fix upon his triumphant return with Meghan from their Australian tour at the end of October 2018.

After laughing, Anne replied: “Usually, it is not worth saying anything because the fact that it was just a story in the first place, you know they will take anything you say and it will come out on their side.” here
Royal correspondent Ashley Walton wrote that the couple’s “deliberate” absence fuelled reports that Anne was angry at being overlooked as godmother for the second time. more
The royal correspondent also noted that Prince Charles’ decision to leave his sister off the list of six godparents annoyed Prince Philip. more
Please. These people will be your ”friends” as long as you're not up for the same roles, endorsements, etc. If you think for one second Beyonce was gonna let Meghan Markle have her Disney contract because ”my princess” I can assure you that would be a cold day in hell. here
What she would have got (if it hadn't been decommissioned!)
It's hilarious that they thought they would waltz into Hollywood and be treated like gods. here
Much as I can't stand Lainey, she does have moments of compassion. Her view on Milli Vanilli for e.g., is 100% compassionate, honest and on the mark.
It's 100% on the mark as well what she says about white fragility and especially when she quotes Robin DiAngelo who states:
