I don't think anyone can take credit for what an ancestor did, or even a parent. For anyone else. A person can only take credit for his or her own achievements. And that includes thinking oneself superior for being of any particular race, ethnicity, nationality, etc. It's all an accident of birth and nothing more.Meghan is divorced, mulatto, American and considerably older than Harry. His engagement is a huge FU to the entire family or as he sees it, the monarchy itself, which he despises. This is not a foundation upon which to build a successful marriage. At some future date, continually giving your family the finger gets old. He gets along well with his brother that's about all. He's been in therapy for years dealing with his emotions over the death of his mother. This is just more "treatment".
If you remember, Harry once went to a costume party in full SS officer uniform. This is just stage two of that exhibition.

Why would anyone want it?
Will you do not know what you are talking about on any level in this thread, all you therefore can do is just Troll me, all you know is that being American you are happy to call yourself a Melting Pot of Mutts who have no idea where you even originated from because you are a Melting Pot and you all hate peoples and nations who do not want to go full on Multicultural into a Melting Pot.
Listen if someone wants to marry a Mulatto and they are say Middle Class, who cares, but Upper Class it's not social protocol to oil drill or burn the coal, it's just not done as in marrying that type, again Americans don't get this because you have no actual Class System.
EG. You think something like the Kennedy's are the Highest Class, ridiculous they get there because of bootlegging in the 1920s, the Kennedy DNA is from poor Irish who went to America during the Potato Famine, this is who then JFK was the lowest Class possible ie. even below Working Class, he was the descendent of poor Irish who escape the Potato Famine, that his father made a lot of money changes nothing, you can never change your Class ever. If you are from Working Class and you make 2 BILLION you are still Working Class because that's your Heritage.
already told you, I'm from English, Scots, Irish, and German blood.
We were here long before the revolution, and you'll find the name of one of my great uncles at the bottom of the Declaration of Independence.
Kennedys bought their class, as did most of the supposed American upper class we have today.
when was the last time one of your ancestors EARNED their title?
100 years ago? 200?
"My family is important because 500 years ago, a king/queen knighted my great great great great etc grandfather"
bullshit.
That makes your family leeches, not heroes.
Who said anything about being superior? I like the old saying: as good as you are and as bad as I am, I'm as good as you are as bad as I am.
That says it all really. And yes: I am quite pleased that my dad was recognised by his King (in exile) with being an Officer of the Order of St Michael (Civil). I don't think it raised my status any though.
