Haven't seen the OP around, thread 1 is about to run out and someone asked for a new thread.

Kate holds the power in her hands, yes.

Imagine what another messy royal divorce would do to the monarchy

Kate holds the power in her hands, yes ... Imagine what another messy royal divorce would do to the monarchy

I wish divorce on precisely nobody, but can't pretend it wouldn't almost be worth it, to watch them trying to trash her as they've trashed so many other "outsiders"

In her case I'd say good luck to them with that - though seeing yet more of their filthy behaviour could be one more nail in the coffin

Kate wears a dress and the UK media lap it up and want to give her a sainthood. Meghan wears a few suits and they go out of their way to take her down. It's such a double standard.

Kate looked fabulous, no question but talk about a PR job. I'd love to find every situation as hilarious as she does.

Of course it’s a PR job - for the film. She really can’t win. She turns up looking like $ million and she gets criticised. If she’d turned up in a tshirt and jeans, it would have been “All that money and she can’t even make an effort”. Looking glamorous at a film premiere is what she signed up for.

No one has criticised her for looking fabulous. In fact, she's been praised by me for looking so good. And of course she's going to look glamorous for a film premiere! No one has said otherwise.

It's a sparkly distraction that suits at the moment and puts a gloss in the RF

The irony of your post.
I wish MM could be praised by you for her appearance

@TheKeatingFive

I’m not sure it’s that rare actually, it’s just not something that gets talked about much. I know quite a few people who’ve turned down invitations.

Me too. I have turned down yhd opportunity twice and DS2 has as well.

@Cam22

Kate looked amazing last night. An embarrassment? No way.

I actually thought this post was tongue in cheek and laughed. But reading further comments, you mean it's not?😱

Thing is @Rousette, I haven’t praised her for her appearance. I just said she can’t win. I’m not remotely interested in the Duchess of Sussex, I literally don’t give a shit, one way or the other. You, however, seem to be obsessed.

I'm obsessed because I commented on your post. Rightio.
Not sure what I'm obsessed with....Kate?
It's a discussion forum and you're on these threads just as much as I am, if not more lil

I think Prince Andrew is embarrassing - I think it is a whole different thing to the Queen and Prince Charles ( mainly ) and William and Kate . I ( personally ) and others will disagree ) think Harry & Meghan are getting a bit embarrassing .

I think one thing to not have a Royal Family , but those who have abused their position ( and I include selling houses over market rate ) - that should be step 1 to sort out. & preferably quickly

Puzzledandpissedoff:
I wish divorce on precisely nobody, but can't pretend it wouldn't almost be worth it, to watch them trying to trash her as they've trashed so many other "outsiders" what a horrible , horrible thing to say. You can hate her as much as you like, but saying that it would be almost worth it For a family to go through a divorce just because you hate their family ?

Well... people have wished divorce on H&M many many times. And for the Queen to commandeer their children into the RF so MM is without them, and for Harry to come crawling back.
I do hope you find that a horrible, horrible thing to say too.

Roussette who ? Is it regular poster on here ? Or some random poster on the DM comment section ?

And for the Queen to commandeer their children into the RF so MM is without them, and for Harry to come crawling back in all the threads about the RF ive been on , I’ve never ever read such a thing Unless it’s a random troll poster I find that hard to believe that anyone but a troll would say such a thing ,
Where did you even read that can you link to it please ?

Oh yes, I've lost track of the amount of posts I've seen over the years wishing divorce on the Sussexes. Even before they left the U.K. there was hypothetical talk about who'd get custody of Archie etc.

Is hypothetically speaking akin to wishing? And saying it would be almost worth it?

I'm not psychic but given the relish with which some posters spoke about a potential divorce I'd say yes, it was wishful thinking.

Even before they left the U.K. there was hypothetical talk about who'd get custody of Archie etc.

Oh god I’ve just remembered the speculation about whether the Queen could claim legal custody of Archie and the barely contained glee about that.

Low.

No, you’re obsessed with the Sussexes. Nobody else mentions them.

Oh wow , no you must be blessed with great mind reading powers to know what someone is thinking when they’ve typed what happens to Archie if they ever get divorced

Nobody else mentions them.

Sure 😂

@queenofarles

Oh wow , no you must be blessed with great mind reading powers to know what someone is thinking when they’ve typed what happens to Archie if they ever get divorced

When it's several posters speculating about it on a thread then it's not hard 🙄

given the relish with which some posters spoke about a potential divorce I'd say yes, it was wishful thinking.

It absolutely was.

When it's several posters speculating about it on a thread then it's not hard just like when several regular posters on here wishing it for Doc ?
If someone said oh I don’t wish it upon anyone but it would be worth it to see Meghan separated from her children just to prove to the world how cruel the RF is then yes I’d say that’s a horrible horrible thing to say , but when someone speculates that’s oh if they ever get divorced Meghan won’t have trouble remarrying a powerful man as she is an independent woman then that a huge difference!

Whatever people think about H&M for various things I do not think there has ever been serious talk of a divorce so perhaps best to let that one go. ( Given their choice )
