crackkhaus: Funny. Prior to now, the press was trolling her. Now it seems she has invited her in-laws to the party. I think there is an extent to which Harry would misbehave and they will wash hands off his matter. All others have misbehaved and stuck with the family. His predecessor King Edward did not fare well at the end. |

crackkhaus: Lol! I never spoke of the intellectual capacity of those that reason in such manner, however I am not a bit suprised that you digressed to make that point. The average Nigerian man thinks he is intellectually superior to other peoples of the world. You see, that is the reason why Nigeria is one of the most technologically advanced and industrialized nations in the globe. A true paradise to live in. Goodluck to you 4 Likes |

hush15:Honestly I think they did all they could. I mean she did get to act off protocol a lot of the time, so I think the royal family actually accepted her. The issue is that the British people are a powerful force. In fact, that the British monarchy is still in existence today is only because the people allow it..that's how powerful they are. There's only so much the palace can do when the people who pay for their lifestyle don't like you. 2 Likes |

adidison: Reserve your unity preaching for the marauding Fulani herdsmen and just spare me. It has not worked for sixty years and you think we don't need a review?! In your mind, this right here is working, huh? Its because its broken that we asking for a fix. You think people just develop this kind of mentality overnight? Teach us how to prosper as a nation so we can learn. I maintain, I've got absolutely no business with the reality soap happening in England. I'm more concerned about this contraption called Nigeria. Just this morning, it was reported that another problem between the natives and the Fulanis is loading in Kogi with about 3-5 valuable Nigerian lives lost already. Are we gonna go on this way without doing something to stop the rot except verbally encouraging ourselves to learn to live together while entertaining ourselves with the fiasco in the palace as a distraction from the painful reality of our existence? For me its a no-no. If drifting apart will preserve more lives than remaining united, so be it. After all, no one is indispensable and every single live matters. If you've ever lost a loved one to the pervasive insecurity in this country, I doubt you will still be mouthing unity. If you want to preach unity to me, come to me with facts and figures of what is being done and the advantages of staying united in view of the overwhelming evidences and disadvantages of staying together. 1 Like |

bukatyne:I don't think it was deliberate on their part or maybe it was. But when I found out it was just the use of a 'comma' in her title which is added only for divorcees, then it made sense that it might have been unintentional. But you can never tell, these people are funny. |

For those of you quoting me, please I'll like to refer you to the very first sentence the op made on this thread. Please if the op care less, why should I care more. I maintain, i'm more concerned about Nigeria and her problems than anything that is happening in the royal family. I carry only one passport and it's the Nigerian green passport. Anyway to make it work here is all that matters to me. Be it unity, division, restructuring, reorganization.... I just want a better life for me and future generations.

crackkhaus: Having ties to the monarchy is not the same as being born into nobility or aristocracy. Having a wealthy father isnt the point either. Established wealth isnt the same as nouveau riche, which is where the Middletons have attracted insult upon insult. That whole paragraph you wrote was about Diana and not just the Sandringham part. The person wrote that she "was" nothing, which was to do with career and personal achievement. A little harsh, but true. The person wrote that she "had" nothing, which is obviously not true because her parents were wealthy enough to be able to train her in those upper-class British traditions that served her well when she married, and to finance her lifestyle as an adult. But the original comment alluded to personal wealth by contrasting her with Meghans "self-made"/"successful" status, which Kate has never had. If they were talking about families, I doubt they would have brought it up because Kate's family is obviously wealthier than Meghans (although Meghan was still able to attend prestigious private institutions in the US because of her father). So its either you deliberately misconstrued the intent behind the comparison or you genuinely took it from another angle because it wasnt immediately clear to you what they meant. In any case, all I initially sought to do was point out that that stuff you wrote could only apply to princess Diana. 2 Likes |

crackkhaus: Maybe you should borrow a leaf from your own suggestion and brush up your history.. The Uncle of Queen Elizabeth II, King Edward VIII,abdicated the throne for the very same reason,that he dared to marry a divorcee.. He a King,has to choose between his love and his Kingdom.. And he choose to follow his heart.. Prince Charles first love was never Princess Diana,if he even loved her at all.. His first love and current wife was a Divorcee and he had to deny her and marry a conventional bride to keep his right to the Crown.. Meghan is a Black Divorcee,she is already disadvantaged from the word go.. The British might act Prime and Proper.. But make no mistake,they know what they are doing and it is NOT the first time.. 2 Likes |

midnighter:LMAO! But truly Kate is like a rich persons child who came up from Agege but is able to send their children to the poshest schools in Nigeria where the elite children go. Then they groom her with private tutors to be what the future King will want. It doesn’t even mean they are billionaire rich. I know some families in Nigeria who will starve to send their children to such schools because they think it means better connections and a better life. Nigerians are now trying to say Kate is better background wise than Meghan, that’s hilarious. Maybe because she’s white? 3 Likes |

I already admitted my mistake in giving a Diana bio for Kate, I had it mixed up which doesn't surprise me considering I'm responding to different people and still doing my thing out here. Whether in personal achievement or family achievement, Kate Middleton was never a nobody. Full stop.

baby124: euromilion: 1. By the early 19th century, the Middleton family was established in the West Riding of Yorkshire as cultural and civic figures, particularly in the legal profession. The family firm existed for over 150 years, closing in 1985 2. Catherine Elizabeth Middleton was born at the Royal Berkshire Hospital in Reading on 9 January 1982 into an upper-middle-class family. 3. Her father's family has ties to British aristocracy and benefited financially from trust funds which they established over 100 years ago. 4. The Middletons were described as "friends of British royalty" to whom, in their civic capacity, they "played host as long ago as 1926" 5. She also worked until January 2011 at the family business in catalogue design and production, marketing, and photography. Prior to her marriage, Middleton lived in an apartment owned by her parents in Chelsea, London, which was estimated to be worth £1–1.4 million. 6. In 2018, Catherine's total net worth was estimated at £5–7.3 million, most of which is from her parents' company. 1 Like |

crackkhaus:Haha hahahhahaha. Please. I won’t indulge you. I know you have been itching from the first page. It’s not worth it. I have things to do, I won’t involve myself in unending debates. Her father is a commoner! A coal miners descendant! You want to compare an apartment in Chelsea to palaces that the elite live in? You are a joker. What is a 1m pound apartment? Very cheap compared to what she married into. William can even buy that apartment for his dog. 5 Likes |

baby124:Cool down. The press live off people. Don't give them the room to feast on you. If Meghan has been doing what is really expected of her,the royal family will fight her battle for her. Simple. The press came for kate at the early stage of their marriage too. This is the press. It's like that everywhere. Worst in Nigeria too. Or is it USA? U hang out with friends and snob their traditions in their faces? The royal family don't display affections publicly unless the press secretly videotaped u. But Meghan and Harry will go out to elite dinners, kiss and display such affections not meant to be seen in public publicly. U had sitting arrangements that's been going on for ages, u just ignore it and sit anywhere u want to. If u want to marry a royal in any country, do try and abide by their rules and etiquette. The British monarch has some that is obviously rubbish to me and u and an average American, don't come and tell them they are boring and try to impose your ways to them. If the queen don't like Meghan, she wouldn't have given her that title. Remember the same British people who condemned her also fought the comedian that pulled one useless prank with their new born baby and he was immediately sacked from BBC. So it's not about racism, not liking her( by the way, there will be no British wedding if they actually hate her). Meghan has loads of drama. I am not talking about her family or ex here, I mean her as a person. Upon all these dramas, the monarch still made them very comfy. The bone of contention was what Harry did because some online poll want Meghan be stripped of her official title. Why not wait and let the queen and the seniors decide that. Some online poll that was done by teens probably. He in his immaturity lashed out by saying he and his wife don't want again. Is it those people that gave them that title? Why not allow mama Charlie and his dad to handle it? Total disrespect to his grand mother, monarch, family and the British people. What would Meghan have done? Go and beg even if its against her better judgement, she is an actress for heaven's sake. Use the opportunity that presented itself to align with the family. I will personally betray my husband here, go to his family and tell them this is what my husband plans to do. That way, u are showing that it's family first and u are committed to this family. Do what u gat to do and let the family fight the battle for u. But she didn't and look at her now. She missed a golden opportunity. Wisdom is profitable to him who has ears. 1 Like |
