Confused Have you actually read what was published? In the order it was published?

Samcro · 19/02/2021 22:31

Didn't Meghan?

@Quirrelsotherface I wholly agree. You have nobody else but Winfrey to put at the front of the church. How credible is that. That tells you what they want you to believe about them. Image above everything. Feel sad for her really - it is just a road to nowhere.

Interested in this thread?

Omg i have just realised that posting on mn when drinking is not a good idea, add in lockdown, sorry M has not had her second child, so please ignore my previous post.

BettysButtons · 19/02/2021 22:35

@Samcro

BettysButtons Didn't Meghan?
Archie was born May 2019!

M is pregnant with no.2 though.

Coronateachingagain · 19/02/2021 22:35

@Samcro neither family nor many friends at this wedding....... (non celebrity at least). If Oprah can get a seat after meeting at a couple of tea parties, just imagine!

Roussette · 19/02/2021 22:38

Corona read back up this thread, she had friends there. Or it was the other thread.

Coronateachingagain · 19/02/2021 22:38

@YardleyX the Duke and the Duchess are probably, as we speak, coming to terms with the enormity of it. Maybe an apology is in order, even

Coronateachingagain · 19/02/2021 22:42

@Mummy195 you seem to be very knowledgeable about Palace announcements, way it is done, etc. Are you I the industry? Just asking but it may just be a coincidence 😬

Roussette · 19/02/2021 22:42

Samcro I knew what you meant 'grin#

An apology is not in order Corona Hmm

Coronateachingagain · 19/02/2021 22:44

Oh @Roussette it is definitely a not very smart way of arguing publicly with the Queen. This looks like the Brexit spat and someone needs to stop it. I am coming to think, definitely an apology is on the cards!

Thewinterofdiscontent · 19/02/2021 22:45

K&W constantly take and publish pictures of their kids. Any paper thinks will sneak up and take a pictures of them, they will be sued to smithereens, you understand?

It's called consent.

The intense scrutiny wasn’t about photos though. Kate had topless holiday ones to fight for, Meghan’s photos were all fine surely?
It was the fact that she came under constant criticism ( alongside quite a lot of positive press on her style actually). Not helped by both her and Harry’s interviews.
It was never the attention but the negativity they were trying to escape. Unfortunately unlike the Royal family who never explain and never complain, they come across as needing to be liked. They don’t. No idea why they don’t do something relevant and stop the point scoring, symbolic photos or wittering on about love and kindness..

Roussette · 19/02/2021 22:49

They weren't 'publicly arguing' with the Queen. They were responding to her with their own statement.
I will not go into it but I felt a sentence in the Palace statement was a tad unfair actually They responded. End of.
But in M&H don't like world, anything they do will be construed as something it isn't.

Coronateachingagain · 19/02/2021 22:50

@DenisetheMenace can you clarify? Your post doesn't make much sense. Obviously @Quirrelsotherface or anybody is the Duchess' confidante here (unless of course you are and you are sure of refuting Quirrel's question)?

Coronateachingagain · 19/02/2021 22:50

*is not the Duchess confidante

Oldbutstillgotit · 19/02/2021 22:54

@ Roussette

Not trying to pick an argument but which sentence did you think was unfair ?

Coronateachingagain · 19/02/2021 22:54

Oh @Roussette that argument looks really one sided. You look vested looking only at the Palace's "unfair" statement. But I will not go into it. As you said they responded. And now they need to own it 😳

What a PR nightmare. The media must be getting just rest for the freebie

DenisetheMenace · 19/02/2021 22:58

Coronateachingagain

@DenisetheMenace can you clarify? Your post doesn't make much sense. Obviously

Does it not? Apologies.
I had assumed that you must be a confidante of the Duchess as you seem to know with certainty that’s she wishes to have the world at her feet.

Are you not? Are you just making assumptions based on media tittle tattle?

Oh my goodness. There I was assuming you must know what you were talking about.

Coronateachingagain · 19/02/2021 22:58

@Roussette no friends were invited to this wedding that were not worthy of being there. Literally🤣🤣🤣

Coronateachingagain · 19/02/2021 23:01

Oh @DenisetheMenace you got it wrong, maybe the confidante was @Quirrelsotherface ! Anyways you are running out of arguments by assuming stuff 🙄

Roussette · 19/02/2021 23:03

I didn't know you had a hand in the guest list? And knew who was worthy and who wasn't?
Gosh.
Someone talked of some friends that were there upthread but I'm too tired to go and hunt for it.
But do think the worst if that suits you.
It doesn't suit me.

Big laugh emoticon. x3

DenisetheMenace · 19/02/2021 23:04

I have no argument.
This is all a very strange, parallel universe with people so invested in complete strangers’ lives. Bizarre.

Off back to the real world now 😁

Roussette · 19/02/2021 23:05

I had assumed that you must be a confidante of the Duchess
Yep Dennis and was party to their wedding guest list.
Apparently
Know who was 'worthy' anyway

Roussette · 19/02/2021 23:06

You look vested looking only at the Palace's "unfair" statement

What? Why do you say that?
Why would I comment on it without reading both statements, what a strange thing to say. I read both more than once

Coronateachingagain · 19/02/2021 23:10

@Roussette go on and comment fairly on both statements then

And yeah I agree only the Duchess knows who was worthy in her eyes of being at that wedding guest list 🤷‍♀️. We only can see who attended.......
