He's now backing out of attending her wedding over the debacle with the staged photos he sold. I feel absolutely mortified for her! Can you imagine how embarrassed she is? The biggest wedding of the year, the whole world watching, plus the humiliation of having to deal with this with the royal family! LINK |

That is so sad. I watched a special about her days ago and it reported that her brother is a mess and her sister and she are not on speaking terms.

I don't know anything about any of this (don't really care about the wedding) but this story is coming from TMZ, I wouldn't hold any stock in it.

I'm not going to let this be a reflection of her. What I don't understand though is I thought he was a successful camera man in the TV industry? Seems things went downhill for him. His son said Meaghan does not financially support her father. She countered that yes she does, but still I thought it an odd comment to make. A child should not have to support her youngish 60 year old father who has had a career. The fact that her half-siblings keep speaking out on her says more about them then her. It makes them look like a hot mess and only makes me think she has good reason not to have a relationship with them. I knew something was up when it was announced a couple days ago that her father would be meeting William this week. After they have dated for 2 years, after their engagement, he's just now meeting him. Clearly there was no relationship between her and her father. I don't think this has to be an embarrassing moment, the images that stay in our mind after a wedding is of the bride, not who walked her down the aisle. this story is coming from TMZ, I wouldn't hold any stock in it. Actually they fact check and are always right on the money with inside info. |

Everyone knows our nutty families would do something equally dumb. Makes sense he thought he might as well control what the press covers instead of them just shooting random photos and posting them. Lots of celebs do that. My advice to him: hire a publicity agent to handle things. SaveSave |

That’s too bad. When you read the article it doesn’t sound so bad...he’s been photographed looking bad and wants to improve his image with some staged photos. To be honest, I’d probably consider the same thing because if the cameras followed me around this past year I’m sure they’d catch me walking the dog in my pajamas looking disheveled more times than dressed up with my hair done, and that would be embarrassing.
Of course, I’m not naive enough to not realize he’s also doing it for the money.

It's not like he sold photos of her...as I understand it he sold photos of himself.
If some newspaper is willing to pay for staged photos of him drinking coffee and reading a magazine, then good luck to him.
I'm betting he'll still be at the wedding walking her down the aisle.

I agree. I didn't care about William and Kate's wedding and he's the future King.
Plus, I don't why but something about Meghan irks me. Maybe it's the way she's always grabbing Harry in public. It strikes me as making sure the whole world knows "he's mine".

I don't know, in the scheme of things it doesn't sound all that bad though. |

But we don't have the whole world watching to make it worse. They are also saying he suffered a mild heart attack last week. I hope he's ok. She is probably sick about all the drama and worried about his health. |

I meant embarrassing that all this is happening just days before the wedding with things pretty much set in stone; he won't be walking her down the aisle now; he won't be in attendance at all the events. I don't know how many things will have to be reconfigured, but the first thing that comes mind is their wedding programs must have already been printed. I just can't imagine marrying into the royal family and then something one of my family members did causing such a commotion. It would be hard on any bride, but one marrying a prince of England? Yikes. |

She can choose to be embarrassed or (I hope) rise above. She’s not responsible for her family’s behavior. It’s not like the royal family doesn’t have it own embarrassing behavior in the spotlight at times.

My husband and I are touching each other 95% of the time when we are together. I'm not trying to send any sort of message to anyone. Some people actually like their spouses. |

It seems “the firm” isn’t doing a very good job of bringing her parents/family into the fold as far as PR and media guidance. Which I imagine is difficult for them “across the pond,” and difficult family relationships, and a different ballgame when you add in the Hollywood paparazzi on top of the British. I feel sorry for Meghan and Harry, but then again they are wanting the big to do, with baggage complications.
Her dad clearly needs some PR help. I mean a charming article in People with dad’s wedding prep wouldn’t be getting the same scorn as “fake” paparazzi photos. I believe her mom did an Oprah interview?
Will and Kate are going to have to show off more baby pics or something to create a distraction.

It does seem as if the Middletons got a lot more guidance and hand-holding through the royal maze.

I feel badly for her but -- she is a smart cookie (biscuit?) and knows her history. When you have unstable people in your family you expect the worst and hope for the best! I can't think of one wedding I have been associated with that didn't have an element of drama. Luckily not on a world stage however. I have a good feeling they can handle it and it may endear them to more people who realize any family can have issues.

We can't take his explanation as truth either. I think there is probably more to the story as well. If Meghan had a good relationship w/ her father, I'm pretty sure this faux pas would be forgiven by Meghan and his presence at the wedding would be tolerated by the royal family. Whatever the real story is, I feel badly for her. I can't imagine publicly dealing with family drama during what should be the happiest time of her life. |

I was surprised when I read that he was going to be in attendance and walking her down the aisle, given that I had seen many articles stating that she didn't have a relationship with him. Why would you want that??

Her uninvited "relatives" dragging into London are just embarrassing themselves. |

British peas. Would it be acceptable in the Church of England for her mother to walk her down the aisle?
