Another year and what will it bring for them (and us who watch)? One thing I thought of is control of their image for appearances. It isn't just that they have lost so many people in such a fairly short time period but who they lost. The people who advised, handled details to make the events happen - road trips to volunteering. We've been saying all along that each loss is a ripple of warning towards a potential new hire coming in. New hires, yes but what about fund raising? Cash flow? This, from SMM, is an interesting read: https://www.reddit.com/r/SaintMeghanMarkle/comments/1puzsvh/impact_report_990_review_from_a_nonprofit/ Which leads us to money. Keeping their image engine running costs a lot. No doubt there are a lot details, paperwork, contracts to negotiate and find new groups to partner with. Hence the need for a good team. The duo could do some of it or all but for how long? side note: the peopl...

@Teasmade A prudent surgeon would wait, but there is always another one who will go ahead and do it.
God knows we have plenty of visual evidence of that in Hollywood. I can't believe some of those men and women own a mirror or perhaps everybody there looks completely distorted.
/Sadly, I got 5/5 in the quiz. I had no clue on the plastic surgery but figured that a person would have to achieve full growth first.
Now I just looked up true definition of modest "relatively limited or small". I would now say I am wrong haha. But I honestly wouldn't think of my youth as "upper middle class "
I by no means think of Meghan as having grown up poor or living in slum or hungry.
Therefore I suppose I was being modest in regards to my middle class upbringing:)
Trying to add something to make this on topic but ran out of time, back to work sorry!
Meghan had an older dad whom was already married divorced and with kids, he was stable and employed. Meghan never grew up in the ghetto and didn’t have hardship nor instability in her childhood (her moms actions- divorcing and who knows where she went are a different story).
For someone with a relatively normal childhood, she turned out pretty odd.
It's clear Thomas spoiled her. He's pretty much admitted he felt guilty about not being around much when his older children were young and not being able to give them much. So he overdid it with M. While he was older than Doria he wasn't really an "older father"-- he was only a few months older when M was born than Will was when Louis was born. But given TM had had his older children when he was very young (he was 20 and 22 when Sam and Tom Jr were born), I guess it's fair to say he made "older father" mistakes with M.
And too we don't know what was going on with Doria. While she was relatively young (~ 25) when M was born, an awfully lot of people in the family (including M, I believe) have described her as always being a "free spirit" and that's not always a good thing so far as child-rearing goes. On her blog when she wrote about Doria (which was pretty rare compared to how often she wrote about her "Hollywood award-winning light director" father), M described her as either a travel agent or a clinical therapist so I'm not sure when she was supposed to have been flying the friendly skies as an airline attendant. But it does sound like she wasn't around for periods of time. (flying, cult, prison, finding herself, who knows) But years went by before fellow students saw Doria and realized M wasn't of Italian heritage and realized her mother wasn't dead as they'd thought TM was a widower.
I think if we knew more about Doria, we'd understand a whole lot more about M. And I think we'd learn that Thomas tried to make up for Doria's absence with "things." So M learned that stuff can be an emotional comfort, albeit only temporarily.
I have a friend who is a popular newspaper investigative journalist. I’ve been thinking about asking him to get to the bottom of where Doria was. (He would do it if I asked.)
It would be very interesting to know more about Doria, I think.
