In her past life as an actress, Meghan maintained a fashion and lifestyle blog called the twig,
And because the internet is written with ink, not pencil (as Rooney Mara so eloquently reminded us) Social Networks), Meg’s words from nearly a decade ago came back to haunt her this week.
The post Meghan wrote in 2014 is being interpreted by some bad actors as a sign that she was “obsessed with the royal family” in the years before she started dating Harry.
Some have even gone so far as to say that Meghan was Joke His future sister-in-law, Kate Middleton.
In fact, the post was completely innocent and had much more to do with Meghan than Kate.
It began with Meghan’s observation that marrying into the royal household is a common fantasy for girls and young women.
Meg admitted that she too dreamed of being a princess when she was young, but explained that she had a slightly different vision.
“For those of you unfamiliar with the ’80s cartoon reference, She-Ra is the twin sister of He-Man and a sword-wielding royal rebel known for her strength,” the future duchess explained.
“We’re definitely not talking Cinderella here.”
Meghan then noted — without judgment — that the coverage of Kate’s wedding to Prince William served as evidence that for some, these fantasies persist well into adulthood.
“Adult women perpetuate this childish fantasy,” she wrote.
“Just in the pomp and circumstance surrounding the royal wedding and the endless talk about Princess Kate.”
Yep, that was the full extent of Meg’s allegedly anti-Kate feelings.
But the bottom feeders of the British tabloid press have seized on what they claim is evidence of Meg’s old animosity towards the Princess of Wales.
A source close to the royals told Radar Online this week, indicating “Kate already has doubts.”
“Meghan came into the royal household nurturing this hangs over Kate.”
The insider added, “It just reinforces why there wasn’t much hope for a solid relationship or friendship in the first place.”
A separate source tells Radar that Harry and Meghan are completely fed up with all the criticism they are getting from UK media outlets.
“Harry and Meghan are very upset with her critics, who will do anything they can to try and paint her as a hypocrite and a liar,” the insider said.
“This has been happening for years,” said the source.
The insider explained, “Meghan finds the whole narrative so tiresome and beneath her.” “She’s extremely wary of eating it.”
Luckily, Meghan and Harry have probably become somewhat used to this kind of treatment by now.
Unfortunately, he probably has many more years ahead of him.
