Perhaps the British media should just admit that they miss the Sussexes? They should stop pretending that they care about the Royal Family and be transparent about the fact that Harry and Meghan are the most progressive and most interesting couple on the planet. They are all the media care about.

Interesting to see the British media and certain members of the public react in a way after Meghan’s video. The Royal Family itself with their pump and pageantry is part of their allure so what is it about the size of Meghan’s table, her heels, her fresh face, the lush blanket that hurts people so much?
There is a bitterness in the comments that is quite pitiful. But there are actually people like this, who hate to see the success of black women. Their anger is palpable. It won’t have mattered if Meghan wore jeans or sat on the floor, they would still have been unhappy.
Less than 24 hrs after Meghan’s announcements there have been scores of articles, tv commentary far more than I have seen with any initiative by any member of the RF. The Royal Foundation report was released yet the media have found a way to link this to the Sussexes.
Perhaps we should just admit that we miss the Sussexes? The media should stop pretending that they care about the RF and be transparent about the fact that Harry & Meghan are the most progressive and most interesting couple on the planet. They are all the media care about.
