Those blaming Meghan for any part of the situation involving her estranged father, need to really reflect on their own behaviours, morals, and values. Allocating blame to anyone other than Tom Markle himself, and the police who dropped the ball, is disgusting. Since when do we blame children for the sins of their parent? I don't think these morally stunted people laying blame at Meghan's feet are capable of truly realising how painful this must be for her. Tom was a father that was loved by his daughter. There are videos, and photos online that show they once had a close father/daughter bond. For almost a decade, Meghan has had to grapple with the fact that the man she once called "Daddy", the man she loved, joined the hate campaign, and threw her to the wolves. The one person on the planet who should have been there to protect her from those trying to destroy her, became a willing participant in the abuse. A daughter who once loved, and trusted her father had to reconcile with the fact that her father was not the Dad she thought him to be. Now we know the true scope of that. We know that in Jan of 2019 Meghan learned just how little she knew about the person her father was. Are those that now blame her even capable of reflecting on how utterly devastating that must be? How traumatic it must be for a child to learn that about their own parent? Never again will Meghan be able to look back at the memories she has of her father without feeling pain and disgust. Never again will she be able to look at a childhood photo of her with her "Daddy" and feel the love felt in the memory it captured. Every single memory she has of her father is now tainted forever. She now has to prepare herself for the inevitable questions her own children will have about their Grandfather. Imagine having to find a way to navigate that. Are those who are blaming her, vilifying her, even capable of understanding how that must feel? How utterly soul crushing that must be? The children and families of predators are victims too. They need to reconcile themselves with the fact that the person they love is guilty of doing the most heinous things. They have to come to terms with the fact that the person they thought they knew, and loved, doesn't exist. This is the narrative that the media should be sharing. This is the compassion all should be demonstrating. I have no love, or respect for Tom Jnr, or Samantha. What they have put Meghan through these last 9 years is unforgivable. I can however, feel empathy for them. They too are Tom's children. They too need to process what they have learned about their father and find a way to deal with it...Find a way to move on. Both appear to be at completely different stages of that process. That is grief. So to those who feel they have the right to judge and blame, before you hit the keyboard to type your vitriol, THINK! Try to think about how you would FEEL. NOT how you would have handled the situation better, because you didn't live Meghan's experience. You are therefore incapable of knowing how you would have handled a situation with a highly complicated set of circumstances to consider. Try to imagine how it must feel to lose such a big part of your memories, and all that you believed was true. Try to imagine how devastating it would be if you discovered a person you once cherished was capable of doing such evil things. Finding joy in the suffering of others, being full of hatred, only shines a light on your own faults, and those faults are far worse than anything Meghan has done, or will do. It hurts no one but yourself. It destroys nothing but your own soul. My compassion, and love, is with all who have been the victims of a darkness coming into their lives through no fault of their own. "Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that." (Dr Martin Luther King Jnr) #MeghanSussex #AsEver #harryandmeghan 🩵🩵🩵
