Yes she is, she really does have the "it" factor. She's minimalist in appearance but still manages to be regal, effortless and modern.
The fourth episode of Meghan's “Archetypes” Podcast has been released. It features Margaret Cho, Lisa Ling, and sociologist Nancy Wang Yuen in an episode called “The Demystification of Dragon Lady"

Mighty quick cleanup of all the references to the BRF/HMTQ that was sure to have been in the podcast prior to the Queen's passing.
And no mention of her titles either, just - Meghan. Surely no one should have complaints about her using royal connections.....
Anyway....this was a really great episode. I had two Chinese female (student) roommates while in grad school and when we first met they introduced their Chinese name first, and then their "American" name. As a Black American, I was surprised by this because we have some names in our culture that are far from anglicized and can command use of the tongue. I insisted that I learn the tonal pronunciation of their actual name and, after practice got it right.
Back to the episode, I always thought Asian women (particularly Chinese) enjoyed a certain privilege as the model minorities, so its interesting to hear their perspectives on stereotypes they face. I was really upset when the ATL spa shootings happened, the media put more emphasis on the (allegedly) nefarious practices of the spa vs. the fact that eight people, mostly Asian women were murdered. I couldn't help but look at some of the responses to this episode were complete invalidation and full of denial - to the tune of (literally) saying there is no prejudice in society against Asian women, lol. It is all the more important that Meghan use her voice and bring these important topics to the surface.
Yes! Boy getting all these very questionable newsfeeds on my social media about Megan! Wow, I wonder who has the time to make up all this strange assumptions up. Some are saying her children are not hers but a surrogates. I am mixed race and my childen are blonde and 1 red head?? All light eyes too. They favor their Father. Also, if someone questioned my children's coloring and how it would affect the Monarchy, I think my unclassy side would appear quickly . They seem to find anything to pick her apart!
