And if not, it looks as though I've hidden it. Can anyone tell me how to unhide it?

Exactly

Stop blaming any of the Royal Family for making Mumsnet take down the Royal Family Board!

It was the Taliban wot dun it! 😂

Quite apart from the fact that it is horrible to feel you have to be on show at a huge public wedding just after giving birth.

But sending a text explaining that left her in tears on the floor.

was on the floor crying because of Kates response or the combo of public wedding/ill fitting dresses/dad

Frankly I'd suggest it was a sign she was massively stressed - needed to off load some tasks and needed some help and actual support.

A hilarious joke? But the point stands, if Harry and Meghan are extremely feminist and in tune with women's emotions... these were odd comments not least extremely silly and petty ones. If clarification is necessary, I was suggesting it's understandable that Kate was upset around trying to get her tiny child to be at a dress fitting at the very least, as she had a newborn. The advice around newborn women on mumsnet tends to be 'be as selfish as is humanly possible'.

I am sure there were good reasons for that.

You know this was a petty incident before a wedding that you are all blowing up to a major incident. It really was not.

Really…..wasn’t it MM bringing it up on the OW interview - 3 years after the event?

And then PH wrote about it in his book?

And then PH discusses in in interviews?

And HE wasn’t even there…..

Sweetpeasaremadeforbees · 09/01/2023 20:35

Harry himself says there was no fitting. The dresses were made from measurements and the dresses arrived 4 days before the wedding. Piss poor planning if you ask me.

If that is true that is ridiculous. When DD was a bridesmaid I had her dress altered about a month before the wedding and I was panicking that that was cutting it fine.

Will we ever find out where they went?

Itsnottime · 09/01/2023 20:35

doory · 09/01/2023 20:23

@cynthiasrevels are you saying Harry should have delayed their wedding because Kate had a baby? Or do you think they told her to drop the baby weight for the photos? 😆

When the wedding date was announced, I was fairly aghast as it was touch and go whether Kate would even be there! She could have had Louis late, William might have been at the birth, all sorts of issues might have arisen. It was really strange that they chose a date so close to her due date.

I hope we get an explanation as to why they disappeared

Were they worried about getting sued so had to do a load of deletions!

At the risk of sounding super thick how did their private messages come out? Or have o missed something and it's a hoax?

It's in Harry's book

BradfordGirl · 09/01/2023 20:33

FFS some of you really are pretty nuts and vile about total strangers. Justin is right.

Surely it’s Harold who’s done that?

Say what now? Actually don't bother.

@JaneJeffer it’s the Mumsnet founder and the Daily Telegraph you need to tell - I’m just going off what they have been saying 😁

I'm sure they are aware of what was said versus what was published.

Headabovetheparakeet · 09/01/2023 20:31

@Blossomtoes and @JaneJeffer

I can't speak for others, but I was curious to know why it was removed and now I know there's a meme thread, I want to see it.

Incidentally, my flower girl had a dress from BHS and it was perfect

I am sure there were good reasons for that.

I'm more interested in why everyone who hid the topic suddenly wants to see things that were posted in it.

I was wondering the same thing.

piedbeauty · 09/01/2023 20:29

Do you sew for children? You do know children grow?

Yes, @BradfordGirl, and that's why I'd have my first fitting more than four days before my wedding!!
