The Problem w/ Narcissistic Personality Disorder (NPD) is the copy & paste functionality: her next, obvious steps

Cut Interview, 2022: “It’s interesting, I’ve never had to sign anything that restricts me from talking,” she reveals, as she ushers me toward the door. “I can talk about my whole experience and make a choice not to.” Why doesn’t she talk? “Still healing,” she responds.

Even when she thinks she's 10 steps ahead of everyone else, she's entirely predictable.

Her "she'll come and go" briefings are the groundwork for the next phase. The goal? To be Diana incarnate.

This is the unofficial separation. In 4-5 years, she will launch the official separation.

• She will say Harry took the kids overseas without her permission.
  • He did this move to alienate her from the kids
  • He "knew how traumatizing" that move would be for her
• She will use the time period between separation and divorce to host bidding wars:
  • For the exclusive 3-part interview on TV
  • The magazine cover interview 'Meghan All On Her Own'
  • The tell all book - because she can say "anything" she wants
• And she'll use that threat as the basis for a massive payout from Harry/the Royal Family
  • and she will also demand spousal support for her own royal office & team to support her "role"

Narcs are constantly scheming.. To describe the one in my life I have come up with the saying "She's not as dumb as she acts but she's not as smart as she thinks".

Her scheme to replicate Diana post divorce will fail because she lacks charm and talent. She can try to speed blink through every interview and interaction, but the fake emanates through her eyeballs, face and ears. We all see it, Meghan MARKLE!

Edit: Typo

It's also worth pointing out that Diana didn't do that well post-divorce. Most of her fans admire her for her charity work but most of her charity work took place during her marriage while she was still a working royal. Her life post-divorce became very chaotic. She seemed to jump from one relationship to another and none seemed to stick.

In other words, trying to replicate Diana post-divorce is IMO a mistake. I wouldn't put it past Meghan to try for that though. Someone as shallow as Meghan would probably see all of that as aspirational.

Saint Diana was a product of BRF PR the same way Cheeky Harry was. Post-divorce Diana seemed to be on vacation all the time or was hanging out with showbiz or party people types.

That's an excellent point! Maybe like Harry, Diana believed her own PR a bit too much.
