Stevie Wonder. If it's true after he made it big his clan all of a sudden wanted to reclaim him.

Most, if not all, actors have families. Which of those other actors have family members making disparaging comments about them? 

Meghan has shown herself to be an opportunist, marrying a producer, making friends with those who could help her.

Her family offered nothing Meghan wanted so she turned her back on them, denied them, and fostered resentment. 

Other successful people remember their family and welcome the opportunity to help them and to share their success with them.

You don't know ANY of this to be true. It's obvious that you have some kind of prejudice against this young woman. You almost sound bitter or jealous. I have yet to ever see you say anything nice about anybody on this board, so I suppose I should just consider it par for the course. You may be a very happy, carefree person in reality, but it certain doesn't come off that way here.

Well let's see.  Just off the top of my head:

Adele and her father

Christina Agulera and her father

Angelina Jolie and her father

Jennifer Aniston and her mother

Kate Hudson and her father

Macaulay Culkin and his parents

Madonna and her brother

Brooke Shields and her mother

Drew Barrymore and both her parents

etc., etc., etc.

Not to mention all the non famous people who are estranged from family members for one reason or the other.

Boy there is nothing like a person to come out of the woodwork and totally try to humiliate you and try to ruin your life being related to them. Go away scum bags, Go away !!!This  is in some cases its good to not be close to family.

Well, in Britain, the tabloid press is merciless when it comes to the Royals and their spouses, so I imagine that even without this family of malcontents, Meghan and Harry would STILL be targets. I think Fergie and the late Diana would attest to that.

I can't imagine how she would ever come back to visit her family here without being plagued by reporters. No privacy whatsoever....I would think she would only want to see her mother....probably better to fly her back to London than put up with the drama coming here is bound to stir up.
Had Hallmark channel on yesterday or Friday and looked up and there was Meghan...starting in the movie!

I have a feeling some of Meghans family members will probably always be in the news.

Well of course they will be... In the same way anything related, however tenuously, to royalty makes it onto these boards...

Harry should have given up his title if he was determined to marry Meghan rather than burden his family with this embarrassment.

One understands the Duke and Duchess of Windsor titles are currently vacant... Would've been an almost perfect fit too...
