Once she got there, she ate up the magazine covers, the glitzy vacations, and the paparazzi appearances. She started her tenure with general <a href=\"https:\/\/news.gallup.com\/poll\/1618\/favorability-people-news.aspx\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">goodwill<\/a> from most of her royal subjects &mdash; people <em>want<\/em> first ladies and princesses to look pretty, kiss babies, and enjoy their taxpayer-funded lifestyles so long as they don&rsquo;t appear to enjoy it too much.<\/p>\n<p>But like Meghan, Jill <em>did<\/em> enjoy it too much, so much that she was willing to ruin her husband and whatever &ldquo;legacy&rdquo; he had to keep up the racket.
