I think she is beautiful and he seems like a nice chap. I wish them a long and happy life with their child/ren.

But for the love of God, could they stop holding hands - they're not on a date, they're carrying out official business!

Makes me cringe, so it does.

I disagree - first off, I think it’s nice to see a couple acting naturally and happily. Second, while their engagements are “work”, part of their role is as a couple and their engagements and appearances are inextricably linked with the fact they’re a couple.

More hand holding please!!

FleetwithPike · 22/10/2018 13:32

It's come to something when you're actually jealous of a couple who hold hands. You need to sort out what's really bothering you

Do you think?

I can't get worked up over how strangers I don't work with conduct themselves at their job. 🤷‍♀️

OutPinked · 22/10/2018 14:02

They’re hardly necking each other, leave them alone.

Why did you post this is AIBU when you clearly think you aren't?

SleepingStandingUp · 22/10/2018 14:26

The pair of them seem to think they're featuring in a Calvin Klein ad

I think we're looking at different Royal photos to you!!

This exactly! ^

The Queen will tell them off for this soon enough. Also, the day they forget to hold hands their divorce will be reported in the media as imminent!

It is possible to dislike some think without being jealous of it. I think op is being ridiculous but it doesn't mean she must be jealous of them

areyoubeingserviced · 22/10/2018 14:38

They both look happy and I thinkpeople expect them to hold hands etc.?They have been affectionate from day one
I don’t know what the big deal is tbh

LavendAr appears not to be aware of how peculiar her reactions are. Just ignore her and she might go away.

I agree. Pathetic isn't it? Makes you wonder why people are so bothered by it. Wink

Smacks of jealousy to me.

Jealous of Meghan.

Jealous as hell.

Beautiful, talented, a star in her own right, famous, rich, married to a prince. You can see the clouds of green oooozing through the internet. Grin

FleetwithPike · 22/10/2018 15:08

Disingenuous, childish, bitter, jealous, sour, petty......... the list of words to explain the OP and some people on this thread is endless

LavenderGreen is actually Thomas Markle. Or the batshit half sister!

For goodness sake she was holding his hand not stroking his penis!

SilentIsla · 22/10/2018 15:33

Isn’t there a batshit half brother too? Don’t forget him and his online ramblings.

Lol

Jesus H Christ, I am shocked at the nonsense that some people find to be irritated about, would you's forever leave them alone and get on with your life.

NotACleverName · 22/10/2018 15:46

Imagine getting riled up about a relatively newlywed couple holding hands... 🤷🏻‍♀️🤦🏻‍♀️

'Jesus H Christ, I am shocked at the nonsense that some people find to be irritated about, would you's forever leave them alone and get on with your life.'

Well the same could be said about you. Why not 'get on with your life' and stop being irritated by this thread?
