Yes LondonJax! You can post threads of how much of a bridezilla I am and moan about me being a diva and wanting a hen do to Vegas because I've "changed now I have money" Grin

Excellent post Mum

"My royal DH won't stop getting nekkid"

Definitely a cause to get ducks in a row and LTFB

The marriage is more than the day itself and Meghan and Harry will get through the wedding day and will come out stronger. I wish them all the very best.

PavlovianLunge · 15/05/2018 21:10

Come off it, Bees, you’re explicitly stating that Prince Harry should have chosen a British wife. You can try to justify yourself from now till Tuesday, but if you can’t see how that comment reeks of xenophobia, and could very easily be seen to have racist undertones, then more fool you.

Anyway, you’ve said your piece, and I’ve said mine, so now I’m bowing out.

Nigeria is part of the commonwealth so it’s fine. I just feel the type of American Harry has chosen will find it difficult to fit into the royal family. Her family just seem trashy to me. They will do anything for publicity. I do feel for Megan however she must’ve known how her family would behave if she really did love harry she wouldn’t told him that she just can’t marry him and as she comes with too much baggage. Same reason Charles was unable to marry Camilla at first. same with wallas Simpson they were both unsuitable for the role.

Leave the Royal bastard!

"My DH won't let me act the northern twat I am now I'm a 'royal' Sad"

"My MIL IBVVVVU"

.... OK I'll stop now Grin

MissEliza · 15/05/2018 21:14

Rain bunny it's shocking isn't it? Why on Earth didn't Charles insist on meeting the parents? I married someone from a different country and both sets of parents were dying to meet each other.

Beesarmy · 15/05/2018 21:14

If harry was living in America or Megan was living in the UK then it would understandable however he had too look abroad for a wife it’s just rather rude.

The80sweregreat · 15/05/2018 21:15

Shark - ‘ my royal dh has bought a f ing snooker table ‘ ( not sure if to put it room 12 or 13)

"Without consulting me! LTRB???" Grin

keyboardkate · 15/05/2018 21:17

This is great fun indeed, I never thought I would be so interested!

I hope if the man gets to walk his daughter up the aisle that he exits stage left out a side door And fecks off to the nearest pub the minute he hands her over to Harry. Lol sorry.

sagegreen5 · 15/05/2018 21:17

Think Tom Markle appears to be completely self serving, he got paid for the staged photoshoot, paid to say he wasn't going now paid again to say he is!
Kensington palace are keeping silent, I honestly don't think the PR team or Meghan or Harry know what to do as they don't know what moves Tom, the SIL or the BIL have up their sleeves. I'm sure they will have another few cards to play before Saturday.
They are making quite sure the attention in on the Markle family & not the bride to be... very different experience to the week of K&W wedding where she was spotted buying last minute honeymoon clothes, face cream in boots & afternoon tea with her mum & Pippa. The Markles have ensured the spotlight is well & truely on them, Meghan isn't getting a look in!

The80sweregreat · 15/05/2018 21:17

Prince Charles probably doesn’t give a fig about his ‘spare heir.’ He strikes me as being as hard as nails to be honest and only interested in himself and his wife.

HasAnyoneGotAProblemWithThat · 15/05/2018 21:18

Give it a rest Bees. You’re coming across at best as rude at worst racist. He fell in love - it happens. Let’s not forget that Cressida & Chelsey didn’t want to become royals.

mum786 · 15/05/2018 21:18

I think you just leave it, I really am failing to understand your reasoning!

Crispbutty · 15/05/2018 21:19

I’m sure films will be made about this in years to come.

The80sweregreat · 15/05/2018 21:21

I watched Muriel’s wedding today as I adore that film and it’s rarely on tv for me to tape. As her dad handed her over he said ‘ she’s all yours mate’ I bet Tom might be thinking the same ( if he ever gets here)

mum786 · 15/05/2018 21:21

As some of them have said, "America's loss is England's gain". So there.

If her family is trash, so what?! Is she trash?

RosaGertrudeJekyll · 15/05/2018 21:22

Prince Charles could insist all he likes, pa seems like a good stubborn man who knows his own mind.

How would it look if pa did this to Charles!!

MissEliza · 15/05/2018 21:23

If Prince Charles 'doesn't give a fig' then that's part of the problem. There does seem to be a distance between father and sons.

The80sweregreat · 15/05/2018 21:28

I don’t know what Prince Charles thinks! He probably does love his sons and I’m just speculating here but I do get the impression he is a cold one on the quite.
Oh well - have to see what happens next. Will he or won’t he come over? I feel there’s more to come!

LuluJakey1 · 15/05/2018 21:31

Hasanyone Charles has married two British women.

MumofBoysx2 · 15/05/2018 21:35

Why is everyone obsessed with the Queen's son's second son's divorcee wife's estranged father? I just don't get all this crazy wedding stuff, sorry!
