I never understood the drama with Meghan. However I completely understand it in this context as well as Alis article.

My family treated my mother similar to how yours was treated. They hated her, she was Jewish, and from the city. She was beautiful, educated and they wanted nothing to do with my father marrying her. They eloped also! My aunt used to tell me how much she loathed her when I was a teenager, and after my mother died. It was awful, and I still refuse to speak to those who were so cold and mean.

I will never understand how some can be so mean, because how you were born.

Your mother must of been a very strong women with great support from your father.
