Dear Meghan Markle,

An Open Letter to the Woman who Could Steal my Partner and Married my (Distant) Cousin.

It’s not my place to judge you good or bad, but I’m so proud of you. I’m never going to stop making fun of the incredibly ineffectual way you reached for law tomes while playing a paralegal on Suits and you don’t need my approval, but I’m so thrilled you stood up for yourself and for your family. I’m really impressed that Harry found someone he could actually be in love with. You’re both terribly famous, but it looks like you hit the love jackpot as well. What you have is truly a rare and precious thing and I think that’s why your wedding so easily outshone that of your sister-in-law.

Actually, let’s talk about your sister-in-law for a moment. (Just a moment. We won’t dwell too long on her and her daily blow-outs.) My mother LOVED Lady Di and was all in for any royal wedding. But even she couldn’t find many nice things to say about Kate. In fact — as my mother put it — Kate went to school to get her Mrs. degree. She’s a pain like any basic … well … you know, but she’s just not worth it. As twitter at large put it she wanted to be Diana and ended up as Camila. Let her nurse her hurts. She’s barely ornamental.

Anyways, onto more relevant subjects.
