Samantha Markle Childhood Hate

Meghan Markle, or the Duchess of Sussex, as Buckingham Palace calls her is very fortunate.  Her marriage to Prince Harry put on show people who believe that they are family members and want her to acknowledge them one way or the other. 

She is fortunate because she is still alive and can decide how she wants to relate to them.  Dead people don’t have a choice, especially if they left huge sums of money or fame that can translate to riches.  They cannot come back from the grave and put a stop to claims from family members who suddenly love them so much they sue someone for allegedly causing their death.

Wealth enables famous people to live a particular lifestyle.  It might be toxic, like living on drugs.  When they are enjoying themselves, the world never hears about concerned family members that caution them about potential dangers of the chosen lifestyle. 

Maybe they did, behind closed family doors and the dead person said, ‘It’s my life.’  Well and good.  More reason why family members should not surface after the funeral and sue somebody for making the dead person live the way he or she wanted.

It is not love.  It is mercenary because homeless people die behind garbage cans and are laid to rest at government mortuaries.  Nobody claims them.  There are no reported cases where family members sue somebody for being responsible for that sad situation.

Blood is not necessarily thicker than water.  It can be weaker than tea.  The saying should be tweaked to: money makes blood thicker than water.

To avoid after death love, rich or famous folks should include the following clause in their will:

“I High Road Jinx, being of sound mind, lived my life the way I wanted and no one, family or otherwise should sue anybody, institution or organisation for the cause of my death.  Please respect my will. Peace.”
