@shutterteal Yes neither is MY friend. She worked at the palace. Before then she was a global tennis player and now coaches George and Charlotte. She also helps Kate into corsets and powders William's bald spots so they don't shine too much at public events. I also have no need to lie. Part of my friend's job was also to spy on Meg to ascertain her iPhone password for the senior royal aids. In short my friend had better access than yours!!

@Lipz

Where are people streaming it from who can't wait till tomorrow?
My sister has a VPN, so she’s going to watch it live

Well it marvellous they’ve done so much to promote kindness and love amongst the British people.
Every one of these threads ends up as a bun fight. It’s impossible to criticise, without someone dismissing it at racist and therefore escalating a discussion of annoying traits, to a hate crime.
They’re a complete car crash, only good for publicity. Which they’ve had plenty of success at. Yea, well done them.

Interested in this thread?

Then you might like threads about this subject:

I can't be arsed to engage anymore but I will take away my favourite bit of this thread... Meghan stared at the back of Kate's head whilst walking down the steps at Wimbledon, shock horror.

“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?“

My sister blame LA as Meghan was probably raised there. She even pointed out a song about LA (Hotel California, I think?) she says their personality can be off putting. But I don’t think that is it.

ChocolateSantaisthebestkind · 07/03/2021 17:46

@HmmmmmmInteresting you clearly have a problem with someone disagreeing with your views, but nevermind. Rousette's quote does not back up what other sources have said. As I said, you would think such a card carrying feminist would decline to wear them and would not have asked her team to lie about their provenance except when her magpie gene took over her morals, of course

I'm going to leave this thread too. With no one to rebut the racist posts it will soon be zapped so let's leave them to it!

It's all very sad.

PicsInRed · 07/03/2021 17:53

I suppose Harry wouldn't notice he'd gone.

Such sexist twaddle, as if fathers don't get worried about losing their child. How many men stay in an unhappy marriage because they fear losing their children?

Quite right ancientgran - though I did mention on a deleted thread aren't they all that Harry probably anticipated the prospect that his brother, who he has reportedly badly fallen out with, would have the power to take away Harry's minor children once William became reigning monarch.

That prospect may have factored into the decision to leave.

Thewinterofdiscontent · 07/03/2021 17:55

HmmmmmmInteresting Theres no shame on me. Is she not doing a completely non essential interview whilst pregnant?
Clearly you can’t criticise a pregnant woman.

Report all you want. It’s true though.

Inkanta · 07/03/2021 17:55

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.

Yes great news!

redspecial · 07/03/2021 17:58

this thread is insane. WhoTF is Wallis Spencer? what are doughy eyes? WTF is that claptrap about Meghan staring at Kate? assuming everyone on this thread is a woman what on earth is wrong with you? creating imaginary feuds between women you don’t even bloody know.

Rose Hanbury went to dinner with Harry just before he proposed to Meghan, there is nothing to show she was spending time alone with William who’d just become parent again. From so much coming out now, that probably went down badly with Meghan and there might have been a family spat that kept Rose at arms length for a while but who the fuck cares, these people might be on the same planet but they inhabit a completely different world than anyone posting on these ridiculous threads.

The RF are all about tradition, history and duty. Meghan isn’t, quite the opposite. On a day to day basis the RF are outdoorsy, horsey and hardy. Meghan isn’t remotely like that at all. The RF offered them a less showy wedding, time to settle in etc but H&M wanted a giant fanfare and to ‘hit the ground running’. Clash of cultures, beliefs, any way you look at them they are oil and water.

Harry is a dolt for saying he’s protecting his family. he isn’t protecting the RF, and he certainly isn’t protecting his pregnant wife (who has already suffered an mc) by bringing on the stress of media attention, controversy and blowback he must have known this interview would attract. Its all of their own making and totally unnecessary, they have everything they could want and there is nothing preventing them from getting on with doing good works and leading a happy life.

Feedingthebirds1 · 07/03/2021 18:05

There's a reason why in the not too distant past princes and princesses married other princes and princesses. Their spouse knew exactly what they were getting into.

Well said. This interview is absolute madness. It won't change anybody's mind about the couple and will just cause unnecessary hurt and stress.

Redspecial great post

I’ve just watched the Commonwealth ceremony. It was glorious and couldn’t have been more diverse.

Just like practically every other royal interview in recent times then

Granted it has a certain entertainment value, but overall I wish the whole darned lot of them would just keep their mouths shut

I really can't believe anyone would think the commonwealth something to celebrate Confused

Exactly! Why cause more hurt, more furore, more things said that can't be unsaid? They're free to do whatever they want - why is this what they want?

cuparfull · 07/03/2021 18:14

It's all so sad, MM could have been such a wonderful addition to our country. If only she had bided her time, softly softly advancing her interests. But she's a girl bulldozer, pushing onward and upward as no doubt she's had to be in her former life. As has now proven, her attitudes are completely incompatible with RF life.
I wish them well but am soo fed up with their whining. Anything to keep their names in the headlines for max income generation.

I think the MoS might still be trying to appeal?
redspecial · 07/03/2021 18:15

why is this what they want? baffling, isn't it.
