Harry and Meghan,my opinion? simply put,he's a traitor and she married him for the 'fairytale princess' lifestyle. Nigel Farage has got it more or less spot on with this assessment...

Nope, nothing that racist says is worth watching.

Love or hate him (as you obviously do) I think he nails it with this...

Don't know haven't watched it. What I do care about is seeing racists being touted on this forum as having something to say. The only thing he is worthy of is ridicule.
He is as pointless as the concept of Royalty in 2021.

the headlines in the US are all about Oprah's interview with Harry & Meghan
the topic is about as interesting as which shade of gray Mrs Orioles will choose to paint the next room (don't tell her I said that)

I only saw the promos for the interview, and heard news stories about it afterwards. I could only make it about halfway through the Nigel Farage video before I'd had enough. He has not impressed me as a person whose opinion I would seek out in such a situation. I typically don't weigh in with my opinion on political discussions in other countries. The little details of this story really don't interest me, but here's my big picture take on it from across the pond. 1. I'm not surprised by the accusations of racism, not because of any particular inside knowledge of the character of the individuals involved, but because racism is a pernicious scourge on humanity, so it's not unexpected to encounter it in a situation such as this, in places of concentrated privilege and power, steeped in centuries of tradition that is not especially inclusive. 2. I am incredulous that Meghan Markle and Prince Harry did not anticipate any of this, and did not prepare themselves better for this, especially after what happened to Princess Diana. This seems incredibly naive to me. 3. They are a young couple in love, and in this instance they need to decide what they need to be happy and whole. The "he said she said" tell-all interview stuff is a bit much for me... My two cents, for what it's worth...

Leaving aside whether or not Nigel is racist, the fact remains he raised some valid points. If someone did mention the colour of the baby then name that person,don't hide behind 'but it wasn't the queen or Philip',give this person a chance to offer an explanation. Just why was Oprah invited to the wedding after they had met only ONCE? Ginge and Whinge relocated to Canada to escape the publicity? then why appear on one of America's biggest talk shows and then chat to James Corden? Was Meghan after a part on the show to go with her Disney voiceovers? If this is the life they wish to have then ok,go for it but strip them of their titles and entitlement.

I agree, and if things were going so badly right from the start as they are claiming, why go ahead with the big wedding? Why not leave right away, marry in a low-key ceremony in California and be happy?
Harry and Meghan are certainly in no doubt that they've been wronged and the royal family could argue with that, but we've not witnessed any of the situations so who are we to judge?
The press should stop producing multi-page spreads of endless conjecture about the whole affair, all concerned should preserve a dignified silence and we could thankfully be allowed to forget about it. And, as the Queen's statement this evening suggests, they could sort it out in private.
