Get the Moderation Effectmug. *Referring to Lady Helena Ravenclaw from J.K Rowling's Harry Potter*
This happens when someone (Often an offspring/friend/spouse/partner of someone famous) gets overshadowed by well... Someone famous (Like how Helena Ravenclaw was being constantly compared and overshadowed to her mother, Rowena Ravenclaw.). It results on the former being constantly compared to, bullied, underestimated or outright discriminated by clueless people based on the latter (The Famous Person), causing mental strain and low self-esteem.
To famous people who have ordinary children/friends/spouses/partners, please never give the Grey Lady effect to them. It sucks. Real bad.

Severus, son of a celebrity dad: I hate my dad. I love acting, but being constantly compared to my dad's achievements kills me.
Dyl: That's the Grey Lady effect for you.

Get the The Fiona Effectmug. Originating from the amogus meme that started in early 2021 and wouldn’t fall off popularity until mid 2022. A meme which doesn’t fall of popularity due to constant iterations of it which keeps the meme alive for much a much longer period of time.
