The rumour was that H & M were visiting W & C in Norfolk, M had excused herself to use the bathroom and a member of staff found her taking photos in George's bedroom. I’ve never heard that , that can’t be true 😵‍💫.

I had seen that as a blind gossip item, and dismissed it initially as malicious nonsense.

Not so sure now...

think the point is it has come out, but there's an injunction. so why can’t I read about it in France, Italy , Singapore , the US? Why can’t my friends in these countries read about these stories too?

and if someone manages to find these juicy stories why can’t they take screenshots and upload them on a blog , substack , tiktok ?

we still have freedom of speech and all that .

Why not say it in Scotland?

MarshaMelrose · 14/12/2022 13:53

Superinjunction alert, superinjunction alert!

MarshaMelrose · 14/12/2022 13:58

So a superinjunction would be operative only in the UK, as far as I'm aware.

Not the UK England and Wales. I think we learned from the Ryan Giggs hoohaa, it does not apply to Scotland.

Maybe Wills is just happily married and far too busy to have an affair?

Busy doing what, has he finally got a job?

queenofarles · 14/12/2022 14:07

Why not say it in Scotland? or Ireland or Australia /NZ were uk super injunctions are not applied ?
I don’t know the state of their marriage. They could be happy or just getting along , neither do we really know what’s between H&M.
but if we expected all partners to hold hands and gaze lovingly when the other speaks as a true sign of stability and love, then that makes many couples who never PDA not in love ? Seems very naive

MarshaMelrose · 14/12/2022 14:12

If they don't love or at the very least really care about each other, they hide it really well. They're better actors than Meghan.

You'd think they'd have noticed before now, what with posters from both sides paid to be on here 24/7

Really? There are people being paid to post here? Is that what’s called a BOT.

Well as it says-rumours.

Even if true, isn't it up tp W&K what they do-or don't do about it?

Making W look bad doesn't mean that H will look good!

I don’t believe it tbh, it’s more that people were going on about there is an injunction preventing it being reported, and this was the first thing that popped up when I opened my browser

antelopevalley · 14/12/2022 15:24

The pegging rumours did make W look bad. It made him look less like a stuffed shirt.
The affair rumours though do make him look bad.

Coxspurplepippin · 14/12/2022 15:27

But as they're totally unfounded rumours why do they make William look bad? It's the same as the totally unfounded rumours about Meghan being a yacht girl and Doria being in prison - I don't think the rumours make Meghan and Doria look bad because I don't believe a word of them.

Following the death of Queen Elizabeth II, David Cholmondeley, 7th Marquess of Cholmondeley has lost his job as Lord Great Chamberlain.

Covenient for William eh? Daddy to the rescue so they never have to meet again and bury his affair with the guy's wife even deeperbut we all know William had an affair with Rose Hanbury - Chumley's wife

bakalava · 14/12/2022 15:33

Do you mean Cholmondeley and William did?

Coxspurplepippin · 14/12/2022 15:37

'we all know William had an affair with Rose Hanbury - Chumley's wife'

Were you in the room?

bakalava · 14/12/2022 15:40

I understand that William had the relationship with Cholmondeley, not Rose. She is the innocent party, just like Kate.

And you don’t think the Queen would have come to his rescue? This, along with the Doria prison thing and the Meghan was never really pregnant and is actually 100 years old or whatever thing are all just stupid rumours started by nasty individuals and carried on by dimwits. There is not the slightest proof to any of them, but various common sense facts that point to them being untrue.

Doesn't that post holder always change with the death of the monarch?

There wasn’t an affair.

And stop being so silly regarding everyone knowing.

Why? That's the way plenty of those aristocratic circles live. For them it's well accepted and entirely unremarkable. If William never has affairs, he'll likely be the first man ever in his position who hasn't.

It might sound outlandish to those in other social circles but it isn't to them. But whilst I couldn't care less which of them go to bed with who, the media image they set up for themselves as bastions or morality is what's truly nauseating, particularly as this is a family that sets itself up as being somehow above others.

If the public is this invested in their overlords, it's interesting to know exactly what they look like when the mask slips. And the narrative media are manipulating, and at whose behest.

To real this quite revealing thread, anyone would think these posters knew these people personally. The level of investment is surprising.

I think it has been accepted due to arranged marriages.
