Meghan Markle: Driving Royal Staffers to Quit with Her Diva Demands?
While rumors say that Kate Middleton resents Meghan Markle stealing her spotlight, it turns out that Meghan has gotten on the last nerve of others in the Palace.
Meghan and Harry lost three of their employees in a very short time.
A report says that Meghan may be causing this “stampede” with her insistence on following her own path instead of royal protocol.
According to a report by the Sunday Express, Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s household has lost yet another staffer.
Samantha Cohen was the couple’s private secretary.
She has now departed from the post.
She was preceded in that job by Edward Lane Fox, who also left that position by his own choice.
And on Saturday, someone walked out who worked even more closely with Meghan.
Meghan Markle’s personal assistant was known only by “Melissa.”
Melissa has spent the past six months at Kensington Palace with Meghan.
Among her duties was having a very direct role in key elements of preparing for the Royal Wedding in May of this year.
Well, Melissa has now reportedly resigned.
Some have interpreted the loss of three members of the Royal couple’s staff as a sign that something is wrong.
According to how a source characterized matters to the Sunday Express, this is very unusual.
“To lose one member of the household could happen to anyone,” the insider admits.
Two is happenstance. But three?
“To lose three in a few months is starting to look like a stampede,” the source says.
Maybe that is a little dramatic, but that does seem like a lot of turnaround for one couple’s household, right?
So … what’s sending these staffers running for the hills?
Allegedly, Meghan Markle’s independent attitude is driving away the household staff.
As an actress, Meghan was a public figure long before she began dating Prince Harry.
And, like most humans, she has a personal sense of style.
She remains dedicated to that style even as a duchess, and is resistant to certain Royal traditions that would dictate how she should dress.
Meghan wants to dress like herself.
She doesn’t feel a need to be dressed in outfits that are virtually identical to those worn by Duchess Kate.
We are meant to believe that Meghan’s sense of autonomy is viewed as “tiresome” by household staffers.
In June, Meghan wore an off-the-shoulder blush colored Caroline Herrera gown to attend the Trooping of the Colour event.
(Gosh, Britain has goofy names for things)
She has also worn purses whose straps cross the body rather than a simple clutch.
Additionally, Meghan didn’t wear pantyhose for the engagement announcement.
All of that is beautiful and even stylish, but flies in the face of stuffy Royal traditions.
We’re not sure what to make of these reports.
Meghan seems to be a genuinely likeable person.
The narrative that she’s “difficult” and resistant to conforming to expectations is tempting, because she’s an American, but that doesn’t mean that it’s true.
And it’s difficult to imagine that Meghan and Harry’s secretaries are so personally offended that Meghan’s formal attire isn’t boring enough that they quit.
There can be real drama surrounding the Royal Family.
But that doesn’t mean that every story has a scandal just beneath the surface.
Sometimes, people just quit.

Bridezilla"s Bizarre Demands Go Viral: Don"t Talk to Me and Don"t You DARE Wear Makeup!
A reddit user by the name of Laika_cat posted a redacted screencap of a truly ridiculous email.
In the email, which was allegedly written by a wedding coordinator, guests are givena list of demands.
A few of them are totally normal — don"t wear white, please let us know if you"re bringing a plus one. That"s all fine and not what has everyone so bewildered.
No, the bride is demanding that anyone invited bring a gift of sufficient value if they want to be admitted.
And she"s also laying down the law about what guests can do, from social media activity to what they drink to how they can do their hair and makeup.
Technically, the email is purportedly from the wedding coordinator, but a number of clues make people believe that the bride wrote it herself.
Take a look at what true absurdity looks like and ask yourself if you would even bother attending.
1. It starts off normally enough
Like we said, it is widely doubted that the wedding coordinator came up with this list — or even wrote it.
2. This question is reasonable
This matters for seating layouts and for food preparation. But this question comes before the list.
3. Oh boy, here we go
Asking people to show up early is fine. And avoiding white or anything close is considered polite.
4. This is where it gets controlling
Now this person is telling people how to wear their own hair and how to do their makeup? It sounds like the bride is terrified of being outshone.
5. She doesn’t just want to control your looks, but your behavior
That … is not how you spell ceremony. And while including a tag for an event is standard, the demand that people not check in on social media is weird.
6. This is our favorite one
What does this mean? Do not speak to the bride? This is like a list of demands for a major prima donna actress … except she’s making them of people who are presumably family and friends. Who DOESN’T want to talk to their friends?

Nathan Griffith Files For Full Custody of Kaiser, Demands David Eason Stay Away From His Son!
The fallout from Jenelle Evans" insane road rage incident has officially begun.
According to a new report from The Ashley"s Reality Roundup, Jenelle"s second baby daddy, Nathan Griffith, has filed for sole custody of his son, Kaiser.
In court documents, Nathan argues that Jenelle and her husband, David Eason, have created an unsafe environment for their children due to their drug use and anger issues.
In addition to petitioning for a change in his custody arrangement, Nathan wants the court to prohibit David from having any contact with David.
Needless to say, this situation has the potential to get very ugly.
Here"s what we know about the battle so far …
1. Father and Son
Nathan currently has partial custody of Kaiser. Teen Mom 2 fans have long suspected that he would eventually file to alter that arrangement.
2. Making Moves
According to The Ashley, Nathan filed paperwork last Tuesday in hopes of being granted sole physical custody of Kaiser.
3. What Prompted the Move?
Many fans have assumed that the Nathan’s legal action is the result of new information about an incident in which Jenelle chased another driver to his home, where she brandished a weapon. But that might not be the case …
4. Two Bad Parents
It seems Nathan simply feels that the environment in Jenelle’s home is unfit for children, due in large part to David Eason and his famously explosive temper.
5. Concerns For Kaiser
In his filing, Griffith claims that a “substantial change has occurred” in Kaiser, and he believes that Eason is primarily to blame.
6. Nathan vs. David
Griffith argues that Eason is a “violent person who is a danger to [Kaiser].” He adds that Eason will have “a detrimental effect on the minor child unless the custody order is modified.”

Jenelle Evans to MTV: Here"s My List of INSANE Demands!
Filming for the ninth season of Teen Mom 2 is currently underway, and thus far, Jenelle Evans has not participated.
As you"re probably aware, Jenelle isn"t on the greatest terms with the network that made her famous.
It doesn"t help that MTV fired David Eason from the show, but Jenelle"s gripes go well beyond concerns about her unemployed husband.
For one thing, it seems Evans" recent road rage incident has led producers to implement some new safety policies — and Jenelle is refusing to abide by the new rules.
The Ashley"s Reality Roundup has obtained a full list of Jenelle"s demands, and they"re every bit as bonkers as you would expect:
1. On Strike
Yes, Jenelle is officially holding out. And it may be quite some time before MTV agrees to meet all of her demands.
2. Hurricane Season
Of course, Jenelle didn’t earn the nickname “the Carolina Hurricane” simply because she kinda blows. No, her temper is notorious, and it seems MTV execs are now experiencing Evans’ full wrath.
3. The Drama Queen
Jenelle may be a pain to work with, but she’s so good for ratings that producers are dying to bring her back. “They are moving on with the show without her, but they really want her to sign on,” The Ashley’s source tells her.
4. The Negotiator
“They have been negotiating back and forth for weeks to try to come to terms that both the network and Jenelle are happy with,” says the insider.
5. Eason Is the Reason
At the center of the tense negotiations is Jenelle’s volatile husband David Eason.
6. What to Do About Dave?
Eason was fired from the show late last year, but it seems there’s still some debate about how to proceed with Jenelle, while simultaneously keeping Eason off camera.

Oprah Winfrey 2020: Golden Globes Speech Prompts Presidential Run Demands!
Sunday night’s Golden Globes award ceremony had a number of big moments, but the biggest by far was Oprah Winfrey’s incredible speech. People are still talking about it.
But some people — particularly on Twitter — are talking about more than just Oprah’s speech.
They’re talking about Oprah’s potential political career. They’re talking about Oprah 2020.
Oprah Winfrey, clad in a gorgeous black dress, accepted the prestigious Cecile B. DeMille award.
The speech that she delivered touched hearts and minds. Talking about the changes and milestones that she’s seen in her lifetime, and all of the positive change that still needs to happen,
In that speech, she speaks up for so many marginalized people who have endured similar abuses to what so many women in Hollywood have undergone, but who aren’t in any position to speak up.
Even with the #MeToo movement and now the #TimesUp movement, some people’s jobs or lives make it impossible for them to speak up without potentially condemning their children to lose everything.
You know what some would call everyday folks in those circumstances? Voters.
Twitter’s reaction to Oprah’s evocative speech was pretty intense, with one tweet reading:
“As I sit here in tears…I have never ever seen such a speech. @Oprah, my friend. Please run for President. This world needs more of THAT. WOW.”
That was a very popular sentiment. And it still is.
The idea of Oprah running for President isn’t new. After Trump’s alarming electoral victory in 2016, a number of Democrats started to wonder if the Left needed a billionaire celebrity of their own.
Oprah is a self-made billionaire who has touched the lives of millions. She’s intelligent, well-spoken, thoughtful, compassionate, and her positive contributions to society are well-known.
On the other hand, some wonder if Oprah’s lack of any governing experience should disqualify her from the position.
Prior to 2016, Presidential candidates were usually either former members of Congress or former Governors. People need to feel confident that their candidate knows what they’re doing.
Some question whether Trump’s disastrous Presidency is simply making people desperate for any alternative whom they believe could win, rather than for the best and most qualified person for the job.
Is Oprah the answer to our nation’s problems? Or just an inspirational name that some hope will bring in the right votes and bring an end to our long national nightmare in 2020?
Some criticisms of the idea are less about Oprah and more about … other political beliefs of there.
It’s been pointed out that Oprah becoming President would mean that Oprah would be the one ordering drone strikes.
For some people, the US’ ongoing drone warfare as a counterterrorism strategy is controversial.
For some, very validly, there’s concern about collateral damage. (Though still, fewer innocents die in drone strikes than would die if the US sent in soldiers to perform the same duties)
For others, however, there’s a general objection to some of the roles that a modern Presidency fulfills. Some of these people are anarchists, others merely pacifists.
And there are plenty of folks who would hate to see Oprah committing what they believe to be “atrocities.”
Some say that you can’t fix the problems of an evil billionaire celebrity with a good billionaire celebrity.
Under no circumstances would Oprah’s candidacy mean that the Democratic Party would be “sinking to the level” of the GOP.
Oprah worked herself from nothing and became a billionaire. Trump inherited his father’s riches and, with repeated failures, is worth less today than he would have made if he’d simply invested his inheritance.
But while Oprah is an incredible human being, is she the best choice?
Would an Oprah Presidency see cabinet positions filled by unqualified charlatans? Would Doctor Oz be Surgeon General? Would Doctor Phil be … whatever cabinet position is usually filled by walruses?
Let’s wait and see what sort of campaign Oprah would run before we rush to judgment in either direction, okay?

Teen Mom Dads: Outrageous (And Hilarious) Demands Revealed!
Let’s be real, the magic of the Teen Mom franchise has always come from the ladies.
That’s why it’s called Teen Mom, you know?
People are interested in Jenelle Evans’ latest meltdown, or Chelsea Houska’s latest act of adorableness. That’s what people want to see.
And sure, the dads are fun and all — Javi Marroquin obviously lives for his reality show fame, and everybody has fun fawning over Cole DeBoer.
But they’re just nowhere near being on the same level as all those girls who, once upon a time, were 16 and Pregnant.
We know this, MTV knows this, and on some level, the dads themselves have to know this.
But hey, sometimes you just have to take a shot … and according to this delightful new report from The Ashley’s Reality Roundup, the dads really went for it for this weekend’s reunion show!
According to the website, the whole Teen Mom 2 crew, as well as some Teen Mom OG cast members, are flying out to Los Angeles to film the reunion and some various specials.
MTV is footing the bill for all the flights, which makes sense, since it is a business trip.
But MTV got the guys tickets in coach, and for many of them, that simply did not fly.
Several sources told the site that many of the guys demanded first class tickets, and one even insisted that the network buy a first class ticket for his girlfriend, too.
Spoiler: it did not happen.
“The show pays for the guys to come to the reunion,” one insider explains, “and will pay for their significant other or guest to come as well.”
“But the network said no way would they pay for first class for the guys, who are just supporting characters on the show.”
Jenelle, Chelsea, Kailyn, and Leah, as well as their children and one guest each, were given first class tickets — it’s not clear if Briana DeJesus earned that luxury yet.
The source says that even that is “a relatively new thing MTV is doing for the girls,” and that “they never flew them first class before, always coach or business.”
That makes sense though, because with the level of fame the Teen Mom girls are reaching, they’ve been having more and more of a hassle while flying coach.
And since most of the moms would be the ones flying with the kids on the show, that means they’ve been getting hassled, too.
However, the source says that “the guys get a coach ticket though, and that probably won’t change.”
“They are reminded that they are free to come out-of-pocket and upgrade their coach ticket if they’d like.”
Hilariously, “The guys who were demanding first class tickets at first said they wouldn’t attend the reunion if they didn’t get upgraded tickets,” and MTV refused to give in.
“They were told not to come if that’s the case.”
How amazing, right?
And let’s be real, it’s not like any of the dads would really be missed.
The Ashley wouldn’t reveal which dads were behind this little diva fit, but they did make it clear that Adam Lind wasn’t one of them, which seems like a given, considering he quit the show and hasn’t filmed this season.
That leaves David Eason, Nathan Griffith, Corey Simms, Jeremy Calvert, Jo Rivera, Javi Marroquin, Cole DeBoer, Devoin Austin, and Luis Miguel.
The moms’ current partners would likely be their first class guests anyway, so David and Cole are out.
It’s pretty easy to see Nathan and Jeremy heading up this douche committee, right?
We’ve said it before, and we’ll say it again: this reunion show is going to be beautiful.
