Who is taking the M&H photos?!

Impartial question…

but who is taking all these intimate photos of Harry and Meghan?

The ones of them kissing in the kitchen, etc.

is this what couples do…I don’t think DH and I have taken a photo together since our wedding 4 years ago 😂

I also wondered this!!! They seem to have professional quality photos of loads of intimate moments. They even seem to have had a candid photo shoot of them packing their house to move?

smilingthroughgrittedteeth · 21/12/2022 20:35

I was wondering the same

PeekAtYou · 21/12/2022 20:36

We don't know.
Is it Doria ? A tripod ?

LolaSmiles · 21/12/2022 20:37

I've also wondered about this.

It seems like they've documented an awful lot of things in a way most people don't seem to because the impression is that these moments have been captured for release to a future audience.

Each to their own I guess, but if feels quite contrived

Meredusoleil · 21/12/2022 20:38

I kept thinking the same thing!

For a couple that value their privacy so much, it would seem they always have someone trailing behind them to take photos!

Also, didn't H say during the first episode that they decided early on to document their relationship? Not sure what the reason was though 🤔

Tinkerbyebye · 21/12/2022 20:38

I would suggest photographers they have employed and they have subsequently released them

the cynic in me says they were arranging to go a long time before they actually did

AnneLovesGilbert · 21/12/2022 20:39

I really thought this with the house moving ones. We’ve moved house a few times, never had time to stop and get a pic taken while deciding what to bin and what to box.

jtaeapa · 21/12/2022 20:41

There’s even one of him proposing.

eurochick · 21/12/2022 20:41

I thought the same. In one of the early episodes M is in her apartment texting Harry. Who tf videos themselves texting their boyfriend. Hmm.

Tiredmum100 · 21/12/2022 20:42

I know, I literally said this to my parents earlier, who's doing all the filming as well?

Iudncuewbccgrcb · 21/12/2022 20:47

The point I stopped watching was early in episode 2 I think which was a filmed bit of Meghan talking into the camera 'fresh out of the shower’ with a towel on her head.

the very last thing I would do straight out of the shower in a dressing gown and towel turban is switch the camera on and record my thoughts about life. It was so clearly completely staged to apparently 'catch fleeting moments of normal life'.

Ridiculous.

Smacks of employing a professional to document your life........

If it goes well, you can release a film, book, netflix documentary about it all.

If it goes tits up, you can release a film, book, netflix documentary about it all.

All the "we want our privacy" is a crock of shite.

Call me cynical.

No doubt I will be called a racist but I actually can't stand the pair of them for different reasons and wish they would just go away and be private.

dudsville · 21/12/2022 20:48

I realise they're older than this, but it is a trend amongst young people to document everything. Also famous people like the kardashians document everything. Also he said really in the reason they had for documenting everything. So that's 3 reasons. A 4th is that they're both used to being photographed loads. It's not a big reach to work it out. You might mean to convey that you're critical or suspicious or that you don't like them, but it isn't hard to work out where the pics come from.

DelurkingLawyer · 21/12/2022 20:50

The one I thought was most odd was where she was FaceTiming a friend the moment he was about to propose, saying “it’s happening, it’s happening.”

I guess you might just about do that (though hopefully you would hang up before he actually got down on one knee) - but it was recorded. Who would do that?

Ocrumbs · 21/12/2022 20:51

It's just like a posh Snapchat. Don't stress about it. They won't have staged years of their lives.

I'd assumed that was a voice note to send to a friend in a different timezone?

Iam4eels · 21/12/2022 20:54

They never said they wanted complete privacy. What they wanted was to choose how and when they share, what to share, and who to share it with - basically control over their own narrative just like most people have.

Harry has wanted out of being a working Royal for years and has made any comments in the past about it not being the life he wants, it's no surprise that meeting his wife and then having his own family helped to sharpen those thoughts into action.

The Royal Family as an institution is toxic as fuck and is clearly not a healthy environment for people to grow up in.

Are they used to it? Meghan probably is, but I thought Harry said that the click of a camera, made him physically sick and gave him panic attacks?

MarshaMelrose · 21/12/2022 20:57

Then why did he want to stay in it and start to diss the family when they said no?

Dunno, why don't you ask him?

makingarunforit · 21/12/2022 20:59

I keep saying it but this isn't going to end well.

It said it was a call. Plus, there was video. Recording calls to friends isn't a normal thing to do, let alone live streaming your own engagement!

Show quote history

But you seemed to know so much so I thought I'd ask you. 🙂

But obviously you don't have the answers to those questions either.

Badger1970 · 21/12/2022 21:10

I thought Harry was massively triggered by cameras..............

raspberrytinsel · 21/12/2022 21:12

I don't know but they are so fucking boring.
