Many people working in Hollywood in roles or on the tech side squeeze their children into something onscreen. It?s hardly nepotism if a child is uncredited, unpaid, has no speaking role and is in the background in a scene. What is that article meant to convey? That Thomas was using undue influence and power? That Meghan was on her way to superstardom due to her father being a lighting director on one TV show, lol?

Because there is absolutely no evidence that Thomas Markle did AnyThing for Meghan as a young adult in her twenties. She struggled and attended endless auditions just like hundreds of thousands of young actors trying to get a foothold in the profession.

Many Nepo babies have proved their worth (with help). I have no issues with it.  :wub:

You are not really suggesting that Meghan was a Nepo baby are you? If she had been, then Thomas?s help would have continued on into her twenties and even thirties. She would have had dozens more roles in film and TV than she ever got. Nepo parents are usually leading actors, directors, producers, musicians  in the industry and really push their children even when they are adults.

I only said, Thank you Thomas Markle, as he was a Director of that show.

I only said, many nepo babies have proved their worth, in reply to your 'nepotism' comment.

Thomas was a lighting director. And I know exactly what you meant, knowing your views on Meghan.

And if you look at it another way, all ROYAL offspring are Nepo babies.

Meghan Markle was born 1984, Episode 9 was aired according to the article 1995, Meghan was 14 years old, a minor age, hence the Thank You Thomas Markle.  Nothing more, nothing less.

The episode aired in May 1995 so I'm guessing that it was filmed in 1994. Meghan was probably in 8th or 9th grade then. It must have been fun to be in front of the camera on a set that she spent so many days after school.  :happy:

"Married... with Children" The Undergraduate (TV Episode 1995) - IMDb

QuoteKelly's new secret admirer turns out to be a wealthy, spoiled, immature 12-year-old boy named Robby Bennett, who blackmails her into accompanying him to his middle-school junior prom. Bud also crashes the prom disguised as a music DJ to taunt Kelly until she finally cries out for help, and Bud saves her by contacting Robby's father--who eyes Kelly too.

Yes, nothing more, nothing less and some make it seem like hell broke loose.

It's time to move on from the "Nepo baby" discussion.

And there?s nothing to thank Thomas Markle for unless it?s discovered that he got her cast in Suits or the other shows she?s been on. But why miss a chance to swipe at Meghan and be nasty to her? Hmm, I find it funny that people display the behaviors they accuse Meghan of having.

Moving on from the discussion but re-stating, there is entire sub dedicated to being mean, snarky, swipping at & and making smart remarks for the Sussex?s called the Iffy or something other for all of the people who dislike like them.

If would be nice to that negativity in that sub, let the people who enjoy the Sussex, enjoy this one.

I tend to think that  Meghan happened to be around when the casting director needed teens for the dance scene.  The director likely knew her from when she was around the set and that she was interested in acting. I'm sure that it was an exciting experience, though having to wait around between takes was probably a bit tedious.

However IMO, having a parent who was part of the technical crew and regularly brought her to the set certainly didn't hurt.

Whatever their relationship is at the present, I have to say that Meghan's parents did their best to provide her with an excellent education and the opportunities to participate in a number of extra curricular activities.

There are facts in life that belong in the Team Sussex, at that time when Meghan was 13 @TLLK is right, aired March 1995 - and as what I said, a minor age, she still would need a permit by California law to work as a minor. Period.  Nothing more, nothing less. Thank you Thomas Markle. 

Meghan also before meeting Harry, wrote wonderful things about her father in her blog The Tig.

For Suits, she was of age, she doesn't need permission from anyone to work.  No one mentioned at Team Sussex - Thank you Thomas Markle for Suits, but solely for the Minor Age stint.

There are THINGS H or M or Both do that by critical analysis DOES NOT need to be IMO in the Iffy wif , but there at the Team Sussex thread. I have posted there at Team Sussex such type of news. 

One can be critical, but there are instances too that there isn't anything to criticize.

Why would it be considred a Snark PREVIOUS 2016 for instance about Thomas Markle when Meghan herself wrote sweet notes about her father.

This is getting quite out of hand because some of us actually feel that one can post in both threads using our brains of what is and what not rather than be in an extreme cult of your in or out.

Meghan Markle's '$1m a post Instagram payday': Duchess of Sussex 'is preparing to re-launch herself on social media' and experts say she could earn millions - with 'everyone in Hollywood talking about it'
MAIL ON SUNDAY EXCLUSIVE: New Instagram profile simply called 'Meghan' appears on Meta-owned platform
Friends of the duchess already follow page as sources say: 'She's coming back'
By CAROLINE GRAHAM


Meghan is reportedly getting ready to 're-launch' herself on Instagram and experts predict she could make a million dollars per post.

The duchess, whose last account with husband Prince Harry, @sussexroyal, had 9.4 million followers before it was deactivated in 2020 when the couple quit being senior Royals, is said to be behind a new account named @meghan.

Decorated with a picture of pink peonies, reportedly Meghan's favourite flowers, a source close to her team this week confirmed: 'Yes, that's her. Expect an announcement very soon. She's coming back.'

Fair point.

There was a point in time which it seemed like Thomas cared about Meghan as just his daughter and he nurtured her interest in the arts and etc.

But I also do think a line should be drawn in which her father working on a lighting direction for a show, didn't help get her jobs in the future or while she was in school. That was Meghan's hard work and drive to keep auditioning until she found her solid home on Suits.

Credit to him when she was a child but her late teens/young adult/adult, that was all her. To her credit and such.

And I maintain that you, along with other commentors are snarky, mean, and take side-swipes. It happens so often, that it can be hard to tell when if something is just fact.

The two subs were created because of a division, and I still maintain that there is an entire sub so people to have let outlet and they can let Team Sussex, remain for people who are actually fans and etc.

As you've judged the Sussex's for their actions, when it comes to you, it doesn't seem as if you're posting just facts and seems mean spirited. And for that, there are two different subs to hold and keep that energy.

And whole point of the two threads was in or out. It would be nice to come into the sub and post without seeing people constantly side-swipe and etc then there is legit a sub for "The Iffy-Wiff Club: Duke and Duchess of Sussex
Candid talk on the Sussexes (for those who are undecided, skeptical, or indecisive about Harry and Meghan). Comments that are doubtful, dubious, betwixt, and between are welcome here." and people to put that energy in that sub. That caters to those needs. And fans, be fans, in this sub.

You ask why would it be considered snark? Due your previous comments and etc about the Sussex's, it's hard to believe that it's just a simple thank you thomas markle and not a dig.

I don't put all the eggs per se in one basket. I am capable of separating different subjects, items, issues and references of past and present of independently H or M or both, hence my comment on posting on both threads. 

Your thought process on putting everything in one basket per se to me is being a full blown cult follower of in or out 'no matter what', I am not that person. 🤷🏻‍♀️  I actually think and my own POV/IMO being an in our out  person in whatever things in and about life is problematic and mentally unhealthy.

Audra McDonald Answers the Proust Questionnaire. Broadway?s Tony favorite holds forth on her loves (cookies) & her loathings (cruelty?and also beets).

Which living person do you most admire: Meghan Markle. I don?t know how she continues to walk through this world with the grace



And this wasn't the only time she spoke up for Meghan.

Throwback to Archie kicking while Meghan was on tour, will forever be impressed that she got pregnant quickly, did that tour when Zika was a worry for a pregnant women. Went on another mini-tour while heavily and then another tour right after only to be told that she didn't want to work hard. Sometimes, I wished Meghan did work as little as people claimed she did.

I do remember the video of the happy Suits cast singing and chatting. There was so much nasty talk afterwards about celebrities who didn?t know the bride or groom at that wedding that it was great to see people who did know Meghan, who had worked with her and liked her, really enjoying attending her wedding. Thank you for posting that!

And of course Meghan worked hard while she was on the Royal roster. We saw her get really into it after her engagement, meeting and greeting people in Scotland, Wales and in England. And it continued after the wedding. Different and unusual ideas no-one in the RF had thought of before to really help people in their everyday lives, the clothing and the cook book. All the while under enormous pressure from the Palace and tabloids.

And Thank You Thank You, Audra McDonald, for speaking out to praise Meghan. Public pressure stops so many from speaking out when they see oppression. The media bombardment on one couple in their first year of married life (especially on a woman who had her first baby) is like nothing I?ve seen in my lifetime. Totally and completely disgusting and uncalled for, especially by women journalists. One day they all might wake up to themselves though I doubt it.

Hear! Hear! I had no idea Audra spoke up about Meghan before but I'm glad she did during her pregnancy. Honestly, the hate doubled after that and I'm amazed Meghan managed it all. I'll always be thankful for her friends and family in America who did the baby shower for her. During a pregnancy women go through so much with their bodies, their own emotions and hormones, the fact that she had her tribe ready to step up and protect her, cover her with the love she was lacking.

People who hated her for it be damned, her mental health was more important than anything at that stage. Had she not had that, her post-partum might've been worse.

Harry sat with LAFC executives

LAFC lost 1-3 vs Inter Miami owned by David Beckham (Lionel Messi is playing for Inter Miami for the next 3 years, he signed with them - he's a DB friend and they love Miami, he had a billionaire option for Saudi Arabia, preferences vs money, preferences won)(WHITE LOTUS is a fairly new series from HBO, highly successful - there will be a new season)




Los Angeles Football Club (LAFC) as host print the VIP list who attend the game, be it LAFC or Inter Miami fans.
