I've got nothing personally against the woman, but I'm sick to death of seeing photos of her and hearing about her 24/7.

Meghan redid her hair.
Meghan changed Archie's diaper.
Meghan put in a new tampon.

Why does anyone in this country give two shits about British royalty? And it's not just because she's black: They're still going on about Princess Diana and it's been >20 years since she had her little fender-bender.

I’m tired of her too. DailyMail is a fairly good source of interesting articles, but has a ton of Meghan Markle crap obscuring better stuff.

I don't see what people's obsession with royalty in general stems from. They're just regular folks whose only claim to fame is being born into a certain family who happens to be descended from "rulers". I know the Royal Family doesn't directly govern anymore, but still the idea of worshiping someone based solely on their heritage makes absolutely no freaking sense to me. People are such mindless sheep who gush over anything and everything "celebrity" it literally makes me nauseous.

Wouldn't know her if I saw her. I have great filters. Can't even hear the wife most of the time.

I think Mrs. PHPaul is on to me. She said today (loudly enough that I couldn't fake not hearing it...) "You LIKE being deaf, don't you!"

I’m interested in Prince Andrew and any news of his association with the perv Epstein.

I believe it’s called “Spousal Selective Hearing”.

Any of that bullshit about the ‘royals’ is enough to make me puke.

I have felt all along that this Harry and Meghan stuff is not going to end well. The woman is a social climber, whose main goal in my opinion was to get pregnant as soon as possible. Whatever happens from this point on, she is the mother of royalty and that is an annuity. Just ask Sarah Ferguson

Meh. I've never understood why Americans have any fascination with the British royal family. Didn't some treasonous rebels kick them out of here once upon a time?

How does one get tired of something with which they have never been involved?

Maybe I am just getting too old and crotchety.

On a scale of 1-100, my "royalty" index is minus 50

I don’t have cable and don’t watch TV. The first time I’d ever heard of Meghan Markle was Para’s thread. The only time I’ve subsequently heard anything about her is in threads here on Sigforum complaining about seeing “news pieces” about her.

This is not to slander and bash, but there’s a common source of your frustrations about this person, and it’s the screen yakking at you about her.

I personally like her. She is very animal friendly and has taken on a role in the spotlight I don't think she really cares for.

It is the NEWS stories/commentators/pictures, etc..that need to stop. Why don't these news people write about me?? How many times a day do I fart, etc, etc. It is the news people that need to go away not her.

From all the US based Brits I have talked to. US people are generally the only people that actually care according to them.

GD +1. Cut the fuckin idiot box off. It’s all shit.

I know it's bad form to respond "Meghan who?", but I did have to read several posts before I remembered who she was.

I didn't realize I was so pop culture illiterate. I'm pretty happy about it.

I agree. I think she wanted to get a royal baby to be set for life. Wonder what the Queen really thinks about her?

This must be a seasonal thing for you, like the migration of birds.

Or the salmon of Capistrano.

Damn, I thought it was just déjà vu.
