btw, the person who owns the house they are staying in still hasn’t been disclosed.

The person who people think it is has denied it.

David Foster (who arranged it) is buddies with a certain Oligarch and his son.

Meghan and Harry left Kensington, the 265-room home they shared with Kate and Will...

The buzz is Kate and Will were beside themselves when they found Meghan reading out THEIR staff.

This created bad blood between the two once-close brothers.

If she was a gold-digger she would be insisting they stay royalty, not trying to walk away from it- how does that benefit her?

*****

Easy to see. She and Harry wanted to use the "Royal" brand to market themselves. She thought she could be a "royal" with all the benefits....but without the responsibilities.

I am looking forward to the day when she runs away with the cabana boy and writes a tell all book about the Royals.

Meghan’s plan from the start, after accurately identifying the vulnerable target, was to marry the Prince, have a baby, dump the Prince, and live off the royalties, if you will. One step left.

She’s a manipulative user and Harry is an insecure entitle baby. When she dumps Harry he will have to cutback to Granny and beg for his title and return to the money train.

I vote for #3, Harry is dumb as a rock. Someone needed to tell him that you bang actresses, not marry them.

They still have a lot of money, but they have expenses

I would not be surprised if they have to rely on whatever money Meghan is bringing in as an actress in a few years. I don't think she will tolerate money flowing in the other direction for long!

“Why does the author need to point out that Markle is half-black? That seems rather odd to me.”

I don’t understand. What exactly is the odd part? Is the statement not true?

Suppose someone was writing about President Trump’s day-to-day activities. And he said “the half-Scottish Mr. Trump...”. That’s true. Trump is Scottish on his mother’s side. But it’s still an odd thing to say.

Actually, the comment fits right in with the traditional (and insidious) type of upper-class racism and anti-semitism that is common amongst the British nobles. Thackeray hammered on it in ‘Vanity Fair’ as well. A well-known bit of dialogue from that novel:

‘Mr. Sedley was neutral. “Let Jos marry whom he likes,” he said; “it’s no affair of mine. This girl has no fortune; no more had Mrs. Sedley. She seems good-humoured and clever, and will keep him in order, perhaps. Better she, my dear, than a black Mrs. Sedley, and a dozen of mahogany grandchildren.”

Thanks for that info. I suspected as much.

I believe that Prince Philip is quoted with saying just that. Well, maybe he didn’t use the word ‘bang”.

And that Oligarch is cozy with the Clintons, having donated a lot of money to the Clinton Foundation and benefiting by receiving access to 20% of the USA Uranium.

#3! Even Diana said she worried what would become of Harry because he was dim like her.
