Did Harry And Meghan READ Sarah My STORY?

[@Jeanne90275]

Fergie was the original "Ginger Whinger." She used appalling judgement, then blamed everyone else when things went south. A veritable blueprint for H&M...

[@judywright4241]

Thanks for telling what so few seem to remember. She was Rachel BEFORE Rachel. Griping about staying in Buckingham palace! Instead I read again and again ‘Fergie never ran down to Royal Family’, not only did she but in getting close to Epstein, she took her daughters with her, bet THAT’S not in her book.

[@ellenritt7667]

I don’t care for her.

[@ellenrittgers990]

I think she bequeathed her intellect to her daughters, too.

[@Sassie1]

I find it interesting that there are common denominators with Di, Fergie and Rachel who, after marrying into the RF, created scandals. 1) Their parents were divorced. 2) They were, for the most part, raised by their fathers. 3) Each claimed they were "victims" of not just the newspapers, but of the RF and the firm's employees. Could it be that, without their maternal parent to guide them in growing up they lacked the learning of social necessities so much so that they over indulged themselves and became entrenched with their own entitlement?

[@purpurina5663]

Interesting. And perhaps the lack of a female presence makes them constantly crave for male attention

[@saviness]

Well put. Tired of these three women who would pass themselves off as important women , yet without marrying into the RF, no-one would ever have heard of them.

I must agree with your observation Susan! 😂 I also have to agree with Shauna though and although Sarah also pulled at my heartstrings in the beginning I am also leaning to feeling like Sarah is the poor friend always crying with a loaf of bread under her arm. She had so many opportunities presented on a plate to her yet wallows in the woe is me every time she follows her desire for fun rather than her duty to her reputation first of all and then her husband, children and her Royal role.

Quite right. And if she thinks she has a right 2B back in the fold like Fergie she's nuts. The children always were with the rf and knew all cousins/aunts/grandparents no blackmail 4 access 2 kiddies. Fergie was all but cast out for 25 - 30 years(?). She has done more stupid things but never it seems out of malice. Has done some nice things, too. Never bad mouthed/blackmailed/threatened the rf.

[@cindymills9340]

You are so right about the wealthy and their nannies! When I retired from teaching I became a nanny for a wonderful family with two tiny babies! My duties were taking care of the kids, doing their laundry, making baby food etc. I did love it! That being said, when I accompanied the family on a cruise one of the other family members said "I could have used someone like you when my kids were little". I replied, "I could have used someone like me when my kids were young!" We all could use nannies!!!

[@joricardochard2824]

I honestly cannot feel sorry for Sarah. It seems to me she is stuck in an emotional and mental timewarp. She has remained stuck in her teenage years. From being the rude teenager to staff , to being the berated teenager, by staff. And like some teenagers, she behaves like a victim, poor Duchess, and is constantly wilful. Did Meghan read this book? I’d say yes, or at least the chapter headings! Thank you, Shauna, for a lively conversation. Sip

She read dianas books so yes she read her friends book ,as well as having weekly lunch visits with mr al fayed dodis father harry took her and she decided to continue herself ,lord knows what that grieved man filled there head with ,he was full of guilt it was his clapped out car his driver who was speeding,his security which did not keep her safe but felt the need to blame the duke who had a good thing going on with diana they would often meet in the kitchen having tea with the staff yes theres morecto megs than meets the eye

Clearly the old man was hoping for a marriage. Should have done more to protect his investment.

[@caroshmarow]

I have never warmed to Fergie, but I understand that she had severe abandonment issues stemming from her formative years when her Mum ran off with another man and moved to Argentina. Whilst her Father was consistently critical of her and never gave her the approval she craved. Seems to me that she was a pleaser who lacked boundaries or an understanding of who she was. However, she not a bad person. I think she craved intimacy and love, hence her ultimate inappropriateness after then feeling abandoned from her new Husband. Conversely, MM also had an absent Mother during her formative years but unfortunately, her Father over compensated and the impact clearly manifested itself as narcissistic personality disorder. No empathy, no family values or emotional awareness and a compulsive liar amongst other flaws.

[@nolaparker9574]

Both MM parents are narcissists, I believe it is genetic.

Here is the thing, when you marry into the royal family (not just the British one) your life is immediately under the microscope. You cannot expect the whole monarchy to change and adapt to you. It is the same with jobs. You get hired and join an established company, you have to adapt. The company is not going to make changes for you. It’s already established and they have guidelines in place, because it works and has been tested.

I see Diana's predicament differently. Realizing your husband is completely in love with another woman and that he married you as an appropriate "broodmare" would destroy most women. Then she had to contend with the spectre of losing her children as her mother had...

[@BarbaraHardacre]

@@Jeanne90275 when Charles was asked about being in love he said what is love. That was a big ringing alarm bells, had Diana ever been out with other men before Charles, documented that she was a virgin, he had dated one of her older sisters. The late Queens mother and Diane grandmother instageted the marriage, which was good for the Spencer family. As a grown woman her and Charles had only seen each other about a dozen times before the wedding. She must have known about camilla. Yet still went ahead with the marriage. Very naive. And I did like Diana at the time, but as you get older and more things come out etc then you realise she was used as a brood mare but she lost that innocence and used the 3 in a marriage quip for sympathy, I felt like others Charles was in the wrong but they were really not suited.

I finally figured out that one woman wanted me to sing a particular hymn to her, and by luck, I knew all the words, so once I figured it out, I could sing it to her whenever I heard the same particular garbled phrase. The delight on her face lasted with me long after I lost contact with my crush (as I still remember her).

She held a housewarming the day of her mother's husband's memorial so her mother had to attend? It's so selfish!! To be fair the late-QEII didn't brag about being a wonderful mother or whinge about not being with the children. Different times.

Shauna your background is perfect 👍

[@naturalmagic4128]

Greetings Shauna! FYI, I'm convinced the Megs also read Lady C's book about Princess Diana. Have you heard the phrase, "Too much of a coincidence to be a concidence"? As you read through it you cannot miss the blueprint for all of Megs' behavior clearly laid out on a platter. How odd, inhuman and robotic to have no originality whatsoever. Even Lady C admits her copying the book is quite likely.

The Royal Family will be making a huge mistake having Beatrice more on the scene during Catherine’s recouperation period.. ..and I think she comes as a package deal with Eugene, who is definitely not to be trusted!. The apples don’t fall far from the tree. Sarah is hoping everyone has forgotten her past. We have not, now again thanks to you!! Phillip was spot on about both Sarah and Meghan. Ostracize them totally…it’s the only way.

💯💯💯💯

Spot on 😂

[@ellenritt7667]

I think they should get along with a full time temp.

Phillip was the one to insist on removing Dianas HRH he was so disgusted with her behavior.

[@queenofdarkdawn14]

Prince Andrew sound like a very weak, selfish man.

[@marjorie619]

Will you comment on Fergie’s behavior at Cannes? She looked great except for the pony tail. But her shouting at the crowd to listen to her. What??

[@Emmajaymusic]

It was a rowdy crowd and Demi Moore also came up and had a go at the crowd. All a bit much!!!

[@athenab9956]

she sounds like an extremely myopic, self absorbed individual. my mother watched the engagement interview of Andrew and Sarah and she asked me why Andrew made a certain comment. a reporter made a comment about her needing a new wardrobe ,etc for her new life and Andrew responded by saying "she's my mother's choice, let her buy her clothes". i was quite astounded by that. the only thing i can think of is that it wasn't his choice to marry her. date her yes, marry her no. if she wasn't good enough to be a lady in waiting to Diana, what made her good enough to be the wife of a prince.

[@lalaholland5929]

Do you remember just b4 A&S were married - there was a statement that they were to live together in Malta or some place and have some time together before being working royals? The point being that they were married, together, hopefully making beautiful babies - not yet in the full glare of public scrutiny. Don't know what happened to that plan or why. I always felt sorry for Fergie. Yes some mighty bad decisions but not malicious whereas that could not be said of the other wife of a royal or the next generations wife to another former spare.

[@charmainerichter6954]

Hi Shauna, good episode as usual! I agree with you, no more sympathy for Sarah: irresponsible and selfish like a bratty teenager. I guess she has learned since.

[@nancyjay790]

I always kept the birth order of Beatrice and Eugenie straight by thinking of it as being alphabetical. I doubt that was intentional, but it served as a memory trick, especially when they were very young and hard to differentiate.

[@Ciao_Bella]

I'm loving this segment...I've laughed so many times my husband had to come in and ask what I was watching. But Sarah was a cheater and a bumptious fool and HLMTQ was extremely kind to her...perhaps because Andrew turned out to be such a gullible shit.

[@cherilynbuck]

I agree with you, I love my kids (now late 40's) but loved a bit of alone time to gather myself together, even as you say on the way to work lol

[@2000konnie]

Ah, so Fergie probably made the suggestion for them to read the book - or she told them first hand. Thank you for covering this book.

[@beverleightodd5710]

The difference between Diana's tennis court and Fergie's is that had Charles agreed to it the money would come from the Duchy of Cornwall, not the Queen's purse, the Duchy of Lancaster.

[@idgriffin56]

Fabulous!

[@JustCallMeRoyal1]

I remember reading somewhere that Meghan actually uses social media. She knows what we're talking about her. Some of the crazy opinions she read and actually turned them into reality while the honest advice she ignored.

[@karenleavitt7241]

I did purchase Sarah’s book, but still on The Royals, almost done then I am going to read this book. Love your book reviews! I did purchase The Courtiers and then Diana: Shadow of a Princess. Next purchase will be King Charles III! That has to wait until I get through these 3 books! After that a really good non fiction book!

[@tinascheldrup874]

Oh my you are wonderful 👍 love your humorous take on things. Thanks much!

[@janscott7565]

Prince Phillip wasn't the only royal who could say some strange and controversial things. Sarah seems to have little or no boundaries, does she? They live on a different level in that bubble of privilege. Thanks Shauna for another great review. I do hope you have a relaxing break and come back fired with enthusiasm about a book you're dying to share with us. Take care.
