@Shehasadiamondinthesky

I'm sick to death of their bloody whining. They should come and work here in the NHS for a bit. Go look at the suffering of families who have lost everything because of the pandemic the millions who have died and are still dying, the mess that this country and others will be in for decades. Why don't they just take their truth and fuck right off. I dont want to hear it. Utter wankers. Their timing couldn't be worse.
Well said Shehasadiamondinthesky. So agree playing the victim while living in luxury and acting like reality celebrities really enrages me.

@Ihopeyourcakeisshit

I notice Meghan's sister has been very quiet, I thought she might have used this as an opportunity to put the boot in, but thankfully not.
I've stated wondering if the sister and Dad were a touch vulnerable and were being deliberately wound up and manipulated by elements of the UK press or even Palace comms. The outstanding loss and punishment of the daily mail may have sent such slaters running back for the woodpile rather than attempting to stir up the Markles any further.

Interested in this thread?

Or wearing and then lying about earrings given you by a murdering misogynist

What about all the other jewels happily taken and worn by the RF given to them by the House of Saud? Or all the plundered blood diamonds from Africa and India?

[quote ChocolateSantaisthebestkind]@Roussette, not the line of succession, but in terms of public opinion, I do most certainly. To paraphrase his mother I think he wanted to be king in people's hearts[/quote]
Harry WAS king of hearts...He turned himself around after smoking weed locally and getting rat @rsed {No one I knew sold a story on him despite having ''Name your price'' as press descended in the area}
But he does seem to have lost a lot of respect..Because of how he comes across now, the Hypocrisy.
It is very sad, but I do think he is being used. He was an angry and vulnerable young man, then, and clearly is still angry and vulnerable now.

I hope he won't be dumped a few years down the line.

@ChocolateSantaisthebestkind

She's staring at Kate, there are other examples too. She realised too late that Harry was the 'wrong' brother. She thought the RF were all equally influential. Harry is pissed he is not a top player either, both as bad as each other.
I think that Meghan and Harry would absolutely hate to be in William’s and Catherine’s place.
ImAncient · 07/03/2021 17:30

@PumpkinPieAlibi

My God...people are insane. She's watching her SIL who is in FRONT of her while she follows her down some stairs and that is proof that:

She hates Kate
She wants to be in Kate's position
She made a mistake marrying Harry
Harry doesn't like being the younger brother

Confused

Hmm I’m not a great fan of the two of them *, but I’d be celebrating if I was Harry that I was the younger brother & didn’t have to be king.
  • in my culture you do not disrespect your elders or answer back. I’m in my 50’s & wouldn’t dream of backchatting to my parents or MIL or other elders. But I know others will have a different view.

I’m watching the commonwealth service & think it’s a shame that it’s been overshadowed in a way.

ChocolateSantaisthebestkind · 07/03/2021 17:31

@PumpkinPieAlibi as far as I am aware no other royal women has spoken publically and made great mileage from do so women's rights in the ME or hidden the provenance of their jewels?

Inkanta · 07/03/2021 17:31

Penny junor has always been demented and obsessed with prince charles. She hate diana!

Number3BigCupOfTea her headline today - 'Harry's making the same mistake as Diane' is the usual meaningless drivel.

vlnr77yac · 07/03/2021 17:31

Well at least some justice even in Daily Mail land that they have to publish an apology to M & H for hounding her FRONT page and in the same print size.

Abusive DM wankers...and thank you Judge!

Forgot to add I think if they had done this interview in a year, post pandemic, when they had set up their foundation & it was up & running I think they may have been better received.

Roussette · 07/03/2021 17:34

Or wearing and then lying about earrings given you by a murdering misogynist

Sigh.

There is plenty out there if you weren't blinkered that puts it into context.
'The crown prince gave the earrings to the Queen during a 3-day visit to London in March 2018. MeghanMarkle has never met MBS & was not present at the diplomatic lunch where the earrings were gifted.
They were property of the Crown jewels & owned by the Queen, who loaned them out for Meghan's use...the CIA concluded that the crown prince was involved in the killing two days after Meghan last wore the earrings.

Chocolate... any comments on Sophie Wessex? Two lots of necklaces and earrings from the Bahraini RF when their human rights record was appalling. Gifted and accepted by her after the embarrassing fake sheikh thing.

ChocolateSantaisthebestkind · 07/03/2021 17:34

@Lampzade I think they would be absolutely ecstatic just think of the preaching they could do. I think W&K would give it all up quicker than they could say knife, if they did not believe in the institution and the good they could do.

JanewaysBun · 07/03/2021 17:34

I hadn't realised it was so soon

I think that them making a move to LA and separating themselves a bit was a good idea. Princess Margaret shows us being "the spare" is not really a fulfilling life and Harry seemed very lost with all the naked vegas stuff etc. So when he married and had a child I thought how nice they are carving out their own paths, Meghan maybe acting and Harry being a SAHD, near her mum who is "normal" which i think is good for Harry.

So very odd they now want to start creating drama, additionally even if my nan was the queen id want to protect her a bit as she's my nan!

[quote ChocolateSantaisthebestkind]@Roussette I would say complaining that no one asked you if you were Ok in the gilded cage you willing walked into, with poverty and gender based violence as a back drop is better example of their distateful behaviour. Or wearing and then lying about earrings given you by a murdering misogynist[/quote]
No, you were right the first time. Staring at Kate is an EXCELLENT example of Meghan's distasteful behaviour. You should try and get a job as a royal commentator. They like people who make shit up and present it as fact 🤣

ChocolateSantaisthebestkind · 07/03/2021 17:35

@Roussette As I said, SW or any of the others have not painted themselves as champions of ME women's rights or lied about the provenance of the jewels...

ChocolateSantaisthebestkind · 07/03/2021 17:37

@HmmmmmmInteresting so you have no issue with the Africa interview or the earrings then? Says a lot about you if not.

@VladmirsPoutine
My friend isn't imaginary. She works for Warner Brothers, went to the US from the UK as part of her job and MM was one of the actors she worked with.
I've no need to lie, at all.
But you continue your silly sniggering and bullying.....,,,,it becomes you

Did you not read the quote that Roussette just kindly found for you? Obviously not Hmm

But don't let that get in the way of a good Meghan-bashing, no matter how foolish the argument.

Lampzade · 07/03/2021 17:38

This thread has been an eye opener( as are all the Meghan threads). It truly reveals the misogyny and racism that us Brits often deny.
Some of the anti Meghan posts are truly insane.
What is it about Meghan that gets some people riled up to the point that they post some , frankly scary posts on a public forum?

Says a lot about you that you do despite having context explained to you Confused

Liquorishtoffee · 07/03/2021 17:38

Well, whatever comes out of the interview - I hope that it isn’t the nuclear option that ends up with family not speaking and the cousins never seeing each other, or H&Ms children never seeing grand/great grandparents.

I’ve seen normal versions of this - Facebook ‘truths’ - that have only caused a lot of harm and regret and people not speaking for years.
