Harry and Meghan's Decision - and what Meghan was supposedly offered

beach-mom — Sat, 11 Jan 2020 23:31:18 GMT

I just read that Meghan is considering a "deal" with Disney. Has anyone else heard this?

I WAS in the leave-them-alone camp, but no longer! I think they have hurt a lot of people, and I'm not so sure Harry hasn't just gone along with what his wife wants.

What can you expect from someone who announces her pregnancy at another's (Princess Eugenie) wedding?

Yawn............well I guess it gives the public something to talk about now with the holidays over.

So what? She has a background in the entertainment business, and Disney is a big part of that.

@beach-mom I don't believe you ever were in the "leave them alone" camp. If you were, you wouldn't be posting this

@beach-mom

She signed a contract with Disney over the holidays to work on a project.

She did a voice-over on a new film. She DID THAT PROJECT and voice over then while in Canada. No one told the Queen or asked for permission.

If they wanted out of the Royal family, that's Ok. The way they did is just like a couple of spoiled brats. Thinking of no one but themselves.

This was a voice over in exchange for a contribution to Elephants Without Borders a wildlife charity. What else will people find to attack her?

I am convinced that if Meghan went to work scrubbing floors to earn money for cancer research someone on these blogs would be disparaging her.

I wonder if this kind of money/payment/donation for services goes directly to the charity or if it passes through their foundation.

This was discussed in another of the Royals threads.

I applaud her for lending her voice to a good cause.

OP, it would probably be a good idea to check the other threads before you post what you think is "breaking news".

...and poorly reported by you news at that.

I know I sound testy. Tihe dirt beig shoveled here is getting out of control.

Why Disney? How much did Disney contribute? Why not directly for the charity? Why wasn't the Queen consulted?

For that matter, why has she abandoned her husband and remained in Canada after the six week break has come to an end? Harry surely misses his son.

@beach-mom It was in the news. She is doing a voice over for Disney. I guess her agent is on fire lining up jobs. Let's face it and be honest, it will be a lot easier for a "Royal" to get a job in Hollywood than an unknown actress. She is getting what she wants - fame in America.

@50Mickey, you're kidding; right? See Post #12 for a litany.

Yes...all rational thinking has left the building.

Meghan didn't "abandon" her husband .... and the queen doesn't need to be "consulted" on every little thing.

I'm convinced that if she committed a crime in broad daylight in front of multiple witnesses and cameras, someone on these boards would be defending her. 🤣

I read that she had signed the deal. Apparently, she had done voice overs with them in the past. So who knows what is her next step.

And I am sure you would be wrong about that.

We're talking about a young woman who made a nice career for herself, married a man she loved, and had a baby with him. She has not committed any crimes, and she and her husband have made personal decisions that they feel will be best for themselves and their child.

I don't understand the criticism and sure never will

@wildcat fan Well said!!

The Queen does need consulted since Meghan is a paid representative of hers. To be associated with Disney, for charity or not, is an inappropriate implied approval of it.
