As for the differing points of view towards the Suffolks on opposing sides of the Atlantic, one should not be surprised. From the American point of view, He meets an American celebrity and marries her and they go and live in California and make lots of money. What's not to like?

As for the UK, he marries an American actress and they both leave the UK to live over there. And then they make loads of money from saying how bad it was in the UK. what's not to hate. As for the race issue, I remember seeing Megan in Suites, which had aired on Freeview TV some years earlier. It had never occurred to me that she was black, or had black heritage. It was the shaking the boat and rejection of the UK that I disliked.
