Miss TV

I have met Meghan Sussex. I met her this year, at an event we were both at. She is not at all like the media, and her haters, portray her to be. They have spent years dehumanising her, and creating a whole caricature of a person that doesn't exist. There were many people at the event we were at. Meghan asked her staff (we found out via organisers later) to ensure she had time to meet us all personally, one on one. She asked each of us our names and we all had the time to have a conversation with her, about anything we chose to discuss. My teenage daughter had drawn a picture of Guy, so we discussed my daughter, my family. I also told her of the wonderful support that she had from people of all walks of life. She had greeted me with a warm hug but after our discussion, as I went to walk away, she grabbed my hand and gave it a squeeze. She was at the event to do a Q&A. We were all able to submit a question for her to answer. The questions varied from her business plans, to her kids, to Harry, friendships, the media, how she copes with the constant criticism and hate. She answered all questions. We learnt a lot about Archie and Lili that I haven't seen in the public sphere so wont repeat. We learnt just how strong her marriage is. They are still smitten ( Harry was also present although he didnt speak. He was there to support Meghan) She spoke on how she deals with the constant hate and criticism. On how sad she is that the media has turned her into a caricature that isn't her at all. A caricature that isn't a version of her that any who know her recognise. She expressed sadness that people who don't know her believe this is who she is, but has resigned herself to the fact that people will believe what they choose to believe and there is nothing that she can do to change it. So she is determined to stay true to herself and live her life as authentically as she can. I, as a RN/midwife and former mental health nurse, am a pretty good judge of character. We are trained to look for signs and red flags. There was nothing fake about Meghan. She was warm. Genuinely warm. She was extremely funny, something that I didnt know about her before. She glowed, literally. She had an aura about her that made it easy to see why so many in her real life are drawn to her, and perhaps why so many feel threatened, and she is extremely intelligent. She didn't speak on the royal family at all. I'm certain those in the room wouldn't have asked her to. There were people in attendance that were not Meghan supporters. I spoke to a few who went just to hear what she had to say. All came away extremely impressed. So, they can blame her, hate her, judge her but, I know how she made me feel and how she treated me. So I will always support her, and defend her unapologetically. I am so glad that my favourite Prince found her. ❤️ #MeghanSussex #MeghanandHarry #IstandwithMeghan #AsEver
