It was supposed to be a quiet day off in the countryside until my phone went berserk—the staccato buzz I set for palace correspondence almost sending it off the table. “His Royal Highness the Prince of Wales is delighted to announce the engagement of Prince Harry to Ms. Meghan Markle,” the November 27, 2017, email read, followed by a note inviting royal correspondents to join the couple for a special photo call to mark the occasion. A few road rules may have been bent to make the 80-ish mile drive from Oxfordshire to Kensington Palace—in traffic—but it was worth it.

...Harry and Meghan’s hopes were quickly dashed by an institution seemingly unable to accept change as a viable option
Why don't you get the pixie dust out of your eyes and let me 'splain this in simple terms. An employee goes in to his boss and wanted to make a change. He wants to work maybe one day a week, keep his job title, and get paid the same as before. The boss says no. The employee persists and then has the nerve to act like a victim when he gets fired. Not all change is viable.

Are we supposed to feel sorry for Harry and Meghan? Really? Nice try but no cigar.

Yuck, just yuck. A bizarre, Bazaar article emoting over the sad fate of Harry and Meghan.
History will, justifiably, NOT be kind to this pair.

What a load of BS. This article is all about rehabilitating their image. They were "treated so badly by everyone." The King and Queen of Whine.

Agree that this is BS. The author is part of Meghan's squad; I would not be surprised if she dictated this piece to him.
It is absolutely wrong that she was given no support. The RF tried their best to assist her but she decided to do things her way.

Obviously this writer has stars in her eyes. Meghan and Harry did a really, really stupid thing when they left their Royal lifestyle. They will figure this out sooner than later (or when their money runs out). The People in the UK will always love Harry, but Meghan, who undoubtedly caused this upheaval in their lives, not so much! Eventually, Meghan will move on. Harry will go back to the Palace life. The Big question will what will happen to Archie!

They wanted to market their royal brand without actually doing the royal work! If Harry and Meghan had wanted to actually work at other careers, that could have been worked out, no doubt. But they wanted to capitalize from being royal. Pathetic article.

The author got invited to the 'last dance' precisely because the report would be predictably sycophantic.

The article is published in 'Bazaar'. The subject matter is bizarre.

“ ... Meghan’s eyes light up when the subject of sustainable travel comes up. “That’s something my husband is incredibly passionate about,”
Says the wife of a couple who both really enjoy flying by private jets ....
Really, this pandering, syrupy sweet article is a bit too much!

Where would one actually find a copy of Bazaar? I didn't see it in the rack at the supermarket checkout line where it belongs. Maybe it had already been snatched up for use as toilet paper.

A BS fluff piece. She wanted it her way, period. Nothing noble about this woman. Nor is she a good actress.

#16, actual "sustainable travel" was what we had in say, the 1800s. An all wooden sailing ship, with hemp ropes, cotton or linen sails. They could sail up to 15 knots in a moderate breeze, say 17 mph, but the weather was fickle, passage times varied a lot. So, these "sustainable travelers" could go from home in Britain to the USA in as few as three weeks if things were great, or four or five weeks if the weather was suboptimal.
I'm sure that Harry and The Gold Digger would just LOVE that. Hang it over the rail to 'use the loo', fun, fun, fun.

The left is working hard at propping up the two spoiled self absorbed children. Seriously, how tone deaf and narcissistic do you have to be to cry about the difficulties of life while on the poorest continent on earth! Just sayin!

Trust me it is NOT over once they get their tendrils into California living. Meghan has retained her PR/lawyer group from before her marriage and moved them to Delaware, where corporations can work in secret (no public information about owners etc) and they were the ones instrumental in getting her all set up before they made their "shocking" announcement they were leaving. On top of that, there is a strong whiff of the Obamas and Clintons being involved (Hildabeast met with them last November.) There's also a rumor that Iger lost his standing at Disney because of the deal he made with MeAgain for a voice-over. Now Disney is going to be run by someone who has a reputation for making drastic short cuts in the budget. Fun, huh?
That little cat-ate-the-canary smile she wore all through the Commonwealth service? It was because she knew she had won and she once again is getting what she wants. All she cares about is the money, and believe me there are PLENTY here in the US whod be willing to give it to her, regardless of what we think, and to a malignant narcissists's mind, that's all that matters.
Harry himself has proven that he is a very weak and unstable person. He's pretty much destroying whatever good will people in the UK have for him in MeAgain's name...and she will use it to her full advantage.
On her own, I dont think she'd have gotten very far. I think she had help. Soros comes to mind...

What a load of tripe. Did she write it for Scobie ?
Listen sista, stomping your feet might have worked before but not with the Queen.Save the crocodile tears. Surprised she didn't go with "You don't like me cause I'm black" routine.
