It just seemed to me that if she misunderstood this request, or didn't push back and explain why she didn't want to do it - or tell them not to tell her how to dress - then things were off to a really bad start from well, the start. I'm not completely blaming her because maybe it was wrong of the staffer to tell her what they did, but they might not know that it wasn't a good idea to tell her if she didn't tell them not to do that.
You could have just written "no".
I also felt, reading this, like maybe the staffer was trying to give her helpful advice, and she could have found some way to address what they were worried about. Like put the charms on a longer chain, so she could still wear them but put them under the neckline of her top. Or hide them under a scarf...
If it went down in the way described then I don't see anything wrong with the staffer telling her. The staffer has the experience, they knew what they were talking about and they had a good reason to do what they did. Maybe they could have said to not wear it or find an alternative way to wear it so that it doesn't show.
Harry’s always been the naughty one because he can get away with it. He’s not a black sheep, but he has made poor decisions in the past. One is MM, sorry. I think it’s bs that she said she gave up her life but she won’t compromise for her new family. Sometimes I wonder if she’s more in love with the idea of being in a royal family only to find out where she stands and she didn’t like it. You can blame other people around you, the media, etc but it all starts with your attitude. MM could have handled all of this better instead of embarrassing Harry and suing everyone who pissed her off
If the story is true that a palace staffer suggested to Meghan not to wear the necklace in public then I think it was really out of line & even offensive to tell her what to or what not to wear.
I think putting it that way ignores the reasoning behind it. It wasn't about the necklace. It was about what the necklace was about and what the paparazzi would do once they noticed it.
If the person you dated put you on the radar of people who stop at nothing wouldn't you want someone to advice you on how to best avoid the feeding frenzy and stay mostly under the radar?
Maybe. But I wouldn't want it coming from someone like a palace staffer, a complete stranger. If that person was really concerned about some tiny little charms shouldn't he alert Harry & let Harry decide if it's an issue?
I think it was worse to draw attention to something that 99 ppl out of 100 wouldn't give a sh*t about or even notice. It's not like she decided to wear shorts to an evening date.
Given how much Harry says he hates the media, I expect the staffer was trying to help by stopping a new date throwing out bait to the paparazzi.
The royal family is such a delicately balanced thing and that’s why advisors who are often extremely skilled and experienced people with backgrounds in business and politics are brought in. But of course a prince with no education and an actress would know better than all of these people....
Sarcasm on? IMO A prince or an actress or just humble me knows what's best for our own selves.
I think you're underestimating the craziness of paparazzi and what length they will go through to get a story. Remember, a while ago, one of them took a photo of a topless Kate from miles and miles away.
Well that was my thought. Not to mention, they would have the same field day if she took it off. OMG, are they broken up already?!I think once the necklace was noticed it didn't really matter if she kept wearing it or not. YMMV
How do you know how much experience this particular staffer has/ had?
There's actually nothing Meghan could or can do without being constantly criticized and railed against. No matter what she does, those who dislike her will find whatever contradictory ways they possibly can to criticize her, despite whether or not such criticisms make any sense
Criticism does not equal dislike.
If the advice was given in the way it was said then it sounds like someone who knows what they're talking about. And yes, I'm also assuming that no one who is new would be so bold as to call Prince Harry's girlfriend and give advice about something they have no experience with.
Criticism does not equal dislike.
I believe she meant the criticism from the palace not to wear the charm. Which was not everything she did because it was early days. That was my interpretation anyway.When the criticism is of every last thing that someone does then it certainly equals dislike:
