Theblip - // Let's not forget this is a little-known actress who succeeded in seducing a prince. //
You are assuming that the popular media perception is based on facts.
In at least one instance it is not - Ms Markle was not a 'little known actress' - she was a major character player in the US drama series Suits which ran from 2011 - 2019 - 134 episodes, and she was in 108 of them, giving her a high profile and and eight-figure bank balance.
The wording of the phrase 'succeeded in seducing a prince ... ' infers that she was successful where loads of other desperate women failed, and she was the desperate woman who succeeded, and it was the ticket out of her boring drab poor life.
That is clearly not the case, but it does create a possible inaccurate impression that the world media in general and the UK media in particular , have built on to the point where she is perceived as the scheming power behind the couple.
That may be true, but then again, it may not, and if the media is as accurate with its 'scheming harridan' as it is with its 'minor actress' nonsense, I think we should all be reaching for the salt and not judging reports of people we don't know, from people who don't know the couple.
