I remember getting a strange vibe the first time I saw her on TV. It wasn’t Suits, just some random short appearance. She was playing a parcel delivery girl or something similar. My brain said Wow, she’s pretty, while still getting the strange vibe. I don’t keep much up to date with news and celebrities, so I was probably the last one to know about their engagement. As a mum of mixed race children I was so happy to see Meghan welcome into the Royal Family.
So happy to read about her involvement with charity or her coming across as a strong woman who won’t let anything or anyone stop her. And yet, each time I would see her on TV …. the same uncomfortable feeling. Something I had definitely seen before, but I couldn’t put my finger on. Then all the negative press followed and her saying one thing in her speeches but doing a different one in real life and lies coming to light about who actually paid for her school and all that. I’m sure everyone knows all this and has an opinion on. However I want to keep this personal as the question asked for a personal opinion to start with. Honestly I was a bit upset with myself for not being able to be happy for Meghan.
She was meant to be the original Cinderella. The original rags to riches story. It makes me laugh when people say Catherine was that first. She might not have the blue blood, but Catherine was never exactly a commoner. She’s the daughter of millionaires, went to incredibly expensive private schools, had the same circle of friends as William and she was very much the ‘IT’ girl of the London social life. Now Meghan’s story was something that every little girl could have identified with. Yet…. something bothered me so much I have started to upvote stories on here saying all sorts of negative things about Meghan. Just to say I only upvoted the ones that weren’t offensive, just giving valid arguments. Now scrolling through one of these answers the other day, I found my reason to why something bothers me about Meghan. It was basically showing pictures of Meghan and Harry from a wedding they attended in Jamaica. Pictures like this
Yes, the Quoran who posted this was right, there’s a lot of territory marking in a childish way, a strange display of affection that at no point Harry returned. But then I came across the look she gave Harry’s friend( the one talking to him in the pictures) when she thought nobody was looking.
And then I zoomed in on other pictures
To most people that might seem like nothing. No one is always camera ready. To me it brought up the memories of a similar look on someone else’s face. He was someone with a diagnose of Narcissistic Personality Disorder. It’s known as the Narcissistic Stare. I don’t think there is anything scientific about it at the moment (I could be wrong), but the abuse survivors know exactly what I am talking about. They must have seen it at some point. So that is why I don’t like Meghan Markle!
