Estimate of Meghan's clothing costs in 2018

The bloggers at UFO (Unidentified Fashion Object) No More put together this chart of fashion purchases by female Royals in 2018.

Keep in mind that Meghan only became a royal in May 2018, and that her wedding dresses were not included in these totals.

It doesn't look good - particularly when the British populace has been dealing with a years-long austerity campaign - for a new (and foreign) princess to be spending nearly EUR500,000 on designer items in less than 8 months. Particularly when that is much more than any other royal woman spends, and when the clothes are largely not by British designers or brands.

After publishing this chart, the UFO No More bloggers were so overwhelmed by Meghan fans calling them "racist" that one chose to leave social media entirely. They will carry on with the blog, however.

New Year (and what's next?)

The duo could do some of it or all but for how long?   side note: the peopl...

So, when does the dirt on Meghan come out?

"This is only hearsay, but in London a Brit socialite who knew her way around money, Europe, royalty told me - and my companion, so I wasn't alone in hearing this - that Meghan was known in the old days. 'She was around the famous playgrounds Europeans visit...and known to be shopping for a rich husband.'" That's a quote from Cindy Adams in yesterday's New York Post . Cindy is old - so old that she interviewed the original Duchess of Windsor. "Who was also American,"  writes Cindy.   "She was not happy afterward. She was tough. I interviewed her. She was constantly looking to negotiate some sort of financial betterment." So, when does the dirt start coming out? How about now. Who will drop the information? We've had more than 1200 comments since the Sussex summit on Monday, so please allow me to repeat part of my answer to a question hidden somewhere within that forest of text. A regular commenter asked for my input ...
