So much for a 'confiscated' passport! Meghan Markle took THIRTEEN foreign holidays despite claiming Palace aides seized her IDs
UK Daily Mail ^ | March 11 2021 | FAITH RIDLER

Posted on 03/10/2021 11:22:44 PM PST by knighthawk

Meghan Markle made at least 13 trips abroad after her relationship with Prince Harry emerged - despite claiming her passport was seized when she 'joined the family.'

The Duchess of Sussex told Oprah Winfrey she 'turned over' her passport alongside her driving licence and keys when she was welcomed into 'The Firm' in 2016.

In her bombshell interview with the US talk show host - in which she also alleged she was 'silenced' by the Palace - the mother-to-be said 'all of that gets turned over' once you join the Royal Family.

The question is, if they did indeed get legally married three days before, was a prenup in force when they did it.

If they legally got married three days beforehand, I’m betting it wasn’t.

If so, God help the House of Windsor.

“...an inheritance of nearly 20 million ...”

That won’t go to far with the stupid cow he married

I don’t like her and she deserves all the criticism she gets. Her whine about not knowing the background of British royalty or the words to their national anthem could have been very easily remedied - turn on the internet and do 15 minutes of research! But I will give Megyn credit for making it to at least “B” status in Hollywood where the odds are stacked incredibly against her and she did it on her own; no one can say that she used her family’s wealth or status to get there as they didn’t have any. I have to contrast what she did with Jenna Bush, Dimwit’s daughter, who is now co-host of today and based on looks or talent, would never have gotten that job unless her father was a Deep State hero. Middle class young women with far more looks, class, talent and pizazz would have NO chance of getting such a job or even an interview. Same for Chelsea Clinton who got paid 600k a year by NBC to do something close to nuttin’. So whatever her faults (and they are major), Megan Markle has at least had some major achievements that were hers, and hers only.

they had a rehearsal. any ceremony would be illegal.

IF they really got married three days before conforming to ALL legalities then the big wedding was illegal.

One of her friends has walked back the claim saying it was mischaracterized

Yoko was an atrocious singer and a genuine weirdo back in the day, but, damn, she may actually have been a decent parent who raised a kid who can think for himself.

Or maybe Sean figured out that his mother's machinations ended up with a dead father, and he is rebelling.

this claim is bizarre:

“You couldn’t just go. You couldn’t. I mean, you have to understand, as well, when I joined that family, that was the last time, until we came here, that I saw my passport, my driver’s license, my keys,” Markle said.

she is trying to make out like she is a saudi princess held hostage.
if she didnt have her passport it was for security reasons and she certainly traveled frequently

Yoko Markle will find her way around something petty like those CA laws.

He wanted to be put on same level as william despite spares not getting the same before him. Like with the wedding extravaganza and title for archie.

His mother and father were too busy pampering themselves and sleeping aroung to take those boys to Sunday School, in spite of the fact that one day William will be "Defender of the Faith"—ceremonial head of the Church of England. The only time they are pictured going to church is with the Queen on Christmas and Easter.

My point being, that if Harry were grounded in a belief in God, he would also realize that he was not "demoted" or made "less than" by being born second, nor was it a whim of the Queen that he would not be king, but that God had a purpose.

Harry could have been William's most trusted courtier and have many honors and positions, and also get to travel the world with greater freedom and all arrangements made, but no. He has to do it his way (or rather, her way), not His way.

They've just done, "You can't fire us! We quit!" Let's just hope they don't "go postal" any more than they already have. The only leverage the Crown has in today's world is blackmail, such as Meghan's naughty photos. Harry's, too. But given H&M's tabloid audience, it might be a plus for them. This is definitely a class war.

I heard that they did have a small private ceremony before the publicity marriage.

Which the Archbishop has clarified, that it was not—it was merely the weddig rehearsal. Seems like Meghan had never been involved in a church wedding before. Apparently most of her associates either live together or go to Vegas to get married.

Wikipedia about Doria Ragland (Meg's mother) and her lines of work:
After leaving Fairfax High School, Ragland worked as a makeup artist and met her future husband, Thomas Markle, while employed on the set of the television show General Hospital. She later worked as a travel agent and owned a small business, before filing for bankruptcy in the mid-2000s. Ragland went on to complete a Bachelor of Arts in psychology. In 2011, she earned a Master of Social Work from the University of Southern California. After passing California's licensing exam in 2015, she was a social worker for three years at the Didi Hirsch Mental Health Services clinic in Culver City. Ragland has also worked as a yoga instructor.

The only trips they are allowed to take need to be fully arranged and approved by the palace. It might be like walking on eggshells each time you have to “ask” for permission simply to get out. It’s not like they’ll allow her to just jet off and stay at any ole Hilton. She was technically not even allowed to go to Starbucks without permission.

I think the point was to stress how much she was willing to give up (freedom wise) while still not being given proportional courtesy back in return.

she did it on her own; no one can say that she used her family’s wealth or status to get there as they didn’t have any.

Really? Her father Thomas Markle was an Emmy-winning lighting director and her mother Doria Ragland was a makeup artist; they met while both working for the soap opera General Hospital. They may not have been A-list or wealthy, but they weren't outsiders, either.

She was technically not even allowed to go to Starbucks without permission.

Where she would have been overwhelmed with paparazzi, autograph hounds and potential assassins, same as all the other members of the Royal Family. Lone gunmen made attempts on Queen Victoria, Queen Elizabeth and Princess Anne in public.

It's the same as the First Family of the U.S. having to alert Secret Service of everything they want to do, and Hillary is infamous for not walking on eggshells, but treating the Secret Service like the dirt under her feet; so it's not like the security people are in place to intimidate the people to whom they are assigned, but to protect them. Meghan's friend and heroine Michelle Obama said that due to security requirements, living in the White House was like being in prison.

So again, Meghan was not being singled out for abuse; she was treated according to the normal protocol for the RF or the heads of state of any major nation, however much she complained that she wasn't being protected.
