Especially some Nigerian men. This matter has really pained them. They cant believe that a man like them will actually ‘leave and cleave’ like the holy book asked him to. The Nigerian man is misogynistic and sexist, they would have slept better if Megan left the palace without Harry and little Archie. When a man supports his wife and there is harmony between the couple,its either his wife charmed him or the man is a weakling so says Nigerian men. 16 Likes 4 Shares |

Surely you must realize that when people don't like you, it really won't matter if you're doing nothing wrong, they would still find a way to make you look bad.
The bias against Meghan was watered by none other but herself. You can see one of the articles you posted called her 'dictatorial', they may not be far from the truth.
I followed the whole ruckus leading up to their wedding in 2018 up until the wedding itself. You should not take my word for it though, you could make some findings on your own regarding just how much she tried to break almost every protocol regarding how the wedding should go. A lot of things were changed/altered just to accommodate her preferences - from the flower choices, to the aisle leading up to the alter that was made wider because it's what she wanted, etc.. There was a lot more which I can't even recall off the top of my head.
Now no one is saying she couldn't have creative control over her own wedding, but when you marry into a monarchy that has a certain way of doing things in keeping with age-long traditions as old as her own ancestors, then she probably should have simmered down a little. She got what she wanted most of the time because the monarchy were happy enough to make Diana's little boy happy, but she took it too far and got used to it. After the wedding, she kept trying to get them to do things her way and most of the time she would get it, but guess what, the British people only resented her for it because she was now effectually implying that their ways of doing things was not good enough for her, her own way was better...it wasn't just an emotional bride trying to make her wedding day perfect anymore, this was a woman who had no respect for the Monarchy and its ways. She confirmed what they already suspected and gave oxygen and water to the bias already working against her. And to make it worse, she was not even that big a celebrity in Hollywood in the first place.
This kind of resentment will obviously make them troll her at every given opportunity...no one holds a grudge more than the British.
If say, a single never divorced well brought-up Beyoncé (still black and American) was the one who married into the royal family, she may even get a softer landing than Meghan. If a Beyoncé DIL wanted the Queen MIL to dance single ladies inside Buckingham Palace, she may have gotten away with it, just because she is a Beyoncé. Get my point?
Meghan already had everything working against her from the start - previous failed marriage, dysfunctional family set-up, being biracial, and an American actress (not even an A-list, which may have been a plus). The least she could have done to warm her way into the hearts and minds of the British people, is to at least appear that she gave a shit about the way things are done.
I'm NOT sorry to type this, but I will because it is what it is: Meghan did not do Windsor a favor by marrying Harry, Windsor in fact did her a favor by allowing her become a part of their family and she should have acted accordingly and not take a mile when given an inch.

Meghan has a long trail of people she has had issues with. She's too toxic to keep a family. She's a destroyer, not a builder.
Her former husband was smart enough to divorce her. Her own father and family are keeping away from her.
If she was such a good person, would she have problems with her own parents and siblings? Good points. I believe she's the kind of person that gives up on family easily. I can't blame her though, it's partly because of how she was raised. |

The mistake we make is to run along with things we read on the internet as fact. Everything you said she did wrong were things the press told you she did wrong. You were not there. You didn’t see her. You don’t know her personally. You also saw clearly that this very same press is very biased against her but you still go with them for whatever reason. Lol. What you think you know about her is simply what someone who doesn’t like her wanted you to know about her. Just like every iota of bias being peddled against her are from the press.

Midas01: Meghan is not black. She is very slightly mixed with black and is much more white than she is black. White people do not reserve the right to determine that a person is black black simply because the they have a little black admixture even when it is overwhelmingly evident that they look white.
Look at Meghan, does she look like the typical African? Or African American? Even African Americans who are mostly only about 75% black look much more African and black than Meghan. Stop calling Meghan black she is not. I thought i was the only one that shared this line of thought. She is more white than black, but racists will say she is black. 4 Likes |

LewsTherin: Usually, I couldn't care less about the Royal Family. They fill in blank spaces on my news feed. But seeing the amount of shtick Harry and Meghan have been getting for wanting to move on without the burden of the Royal Family and all its accoutrements, I read up on a few stories and came across some massively biased reporting.
Not everything is as it seems, and everything is definitely coloured according to the reporter's bias. Yes, pun intended.
Check out some reports of Meghan doing the same thing as Kate and ask yourself why Harry is pissed. Happy new year ![smiley](https://www.nairaland.com/faces/smiley.png) I am afraid for a man who allows distractions make his decisions for him. A man who allowed the press 'influenced' him to drop his royal duties. Unlike someone working a job, Harry was born for his 'royal duties'. It was a responsibilty thrust upon him by birth. Heavenly bestowed (if you like). The press did not give him his royal assignment, have no influence over his appointment, have no influence over his relationship with his family, have no authority to make a decision on his case YET. That Meghan was not able to influence him to hold on to his duties is another worry considering she is the attraction of the media. It speaks of lack of strength of character to me. And the press has and always will troll people. I believe I opened a thread years back on my dislike for the press. Imagine everyone left their duty post because of the press. 4 Likes |

Very intelligent Nigerian woman. She kept on point and kept calling them out. How can anyone see what Meghan has suffered in the press and call it unconscious bias. That was brutal and wicked racism. Extreme bullying. Nothing she did was ever ever going to be good enough. I am all about keeping a family unit but not at the detriment of the peace and sanity of some members. While others keep quiet or quietly promote the bad treatment. The man now asked her if she had concrete examples which we know is a loaded question because you cant put a condescending attitude, intimidation and subtly nasty language into words.

Prince Harry decided it was for the best. For him and his family. I don’t think it is anybody’s business. He is not the first by the way! A prince abdicated the throne for love and even his divorcee wife did not face this level of hatred.
Harry is not needed for the throne. He is free to live anywhere in the world. Did he say he cut ties with his family? He’s only moving to another country! What right does the Royal family and the British have over where he chooses to live? They even collected his allowances, thinking that would make him change his mind. But he damned them all. That should tell you that this is all Harry’s idea. He is even hustling jobs for his wife in the corporate world . @bold: What qualifications does he have to hustle jobs for his wife?
