She chose to become a Royal along with all that which goes with the position, which will entail meeting various dignities that one may not particularly like for one reason or another.

I think that this one time American actress will continue to cause embarrassment, not only to our long standing Royal Family but also to the tolerant British people.

His American wife, the Duchess of Sussex, is on maternity leave and will therefore avoid a potentially awkward encounter with Mr Trump, whom she has previously described as “misogynistic” and “divisive”.

She is not attending official duties due to having just had a child how is that an embarrassment?

[puzzled54]

I think trump will regard it as a ‘victory’ for himself as he doesn’t want to meet her after her comments about him

Trump regards everything short of a prison sentence as a victory for himself.

Please forgive me if I am wrong, but did Kate not have a few MONTHS maternity leave after ALL OF HER CHILDREN, Why then can Meghan not get the same.

grumpy01 @ 09:37, I couldn't agree more.

As for Markle's association with the Royal Family, I maintain it will end in tears.

/// Here was I thinking ‘crikey, AOG’s posted something that doesn’t mention race’ but then I remembered Meghan’s parentage. And the real reason for the thread became clear. ///

Zacs managers to play the race card, when race hasn't even been mentioned, unless he is classing American (which has been mentioned) as a race?

What an enormous chip he seems to be carrying on his shoulders.

Mr President sir - Princess Meghan is too busy feeding her baby ///

She is not a Princess and never likely to be.

The words 'mountains' and 'molehills' spring readily to mind.

[anotheoldgit]

What did Harry once say?

"Whatever Meghan wants, Meghan gets".

Says it all really.

[Zacs-Master]

C’mon, AOG, be a man and admit it. You don’t like her because she’s mixed race. We can all see thru you.

[Sqad]

Zacs.....LOL....it was only a few years ago that one could only play cricket for Yorkshire, if you were born in Yorkshire.........Yorkshire folk were that race sensitive.

[dannyk13]

Sqad, Oi!

[Zacs-Master]

Not all Yorkshire folk, Sqad. Don’t fall into the bigotry trap like some others seem to do. Actually they seem to throw themselves into it with gay abandon.

[Sqad]

LOL .."gay" abandon?.......and that's another thing !!!

[mushroom25]

//Actually they seem to throw themselves into it with gay abandon. //

since the word "gay" is no longer a synonym for happy, just wondering what "gay abandon" could possibly be these days..... :-)

[Zacs-Master]

Who says?

[Tilly2]

When did Harry say, 'What Meghan wants, Meghan gets?'

I must have missed that.

[Bazile]

Ok I give up
