To mark Lilibet's 4th birthday, they've uploaded this video. I think it's cute and fun but the usual haters are out in force.

She clearly has a monitor on under her dress but people are claiming it's a pillow, and people are also claiming it's not possible to dance like that while heavily pregnant (it totally is, if you're in good shape)

Also the horrible comments from men saying she must have got a lot of practice in, giving lap dances on yachts

Don't really know what people's problem is with these two tbh.

That doesnt excuse MM though does it?....and at least those Duchesses weren't manipulative liars and bullies to boot. There's a world of difference

Really? Sarah Fergusons was plagued by scandal. Cash for Access and toe sucking to name but two. And the fact she was bailed out from bankruptcy by Epstein. People on these threads have very short memories and seem to just hone in on one royal family member forgetting most of them are liars, adulterers, fraudsters and manipulators. There’s been a constant stream of stuff coming out of the royal household for decades and that’s just what we hear about. These people are supposed to be moral and above reproach, bollocks.

Like I said, that doesn't excuse the Markle though! Two wrongs don't make a right. Prince Andrew is a bully as well and treats his staff like crap. The difference is that Meghan not only treats her staff like crap but also all her exes, Harry and her friends and family and freezes people out when they are of no use to her anymore. How you can defend the indefensible is completely beyond me. I can't abide her.

RufustheFactuaIReindeer · 08/06/2025 19:15

Have you name changed especially evie

EvieBB · 08/06/2025 19:18

At the end of the day Sarah Ferguson is likeable and is capable of self deprecation. She seems capable of self reflection and takes responsibility - there are videos of her apologising.
MM is not capable of any of that and is a bully to boot. She is deeply deeply unlikeable. End of.

What you do behind closed doors is fine but it's not the done thing if you're supposedly a Royal. She looks like a chav. What on earth was she thinking posting that? I couldn't believe what I was seeing and thought (initially) it was someone doing a parody of her. I mean, can you imagine Princess Catherine doing that? No, because she's classy unlike the vulgar, attention seeking, money grabbing, manipulative, narcissistic Meghan

Who is Princess Catherine?

She’s the princess of wales. William’s wife.

Camilla Tominhey seems to have dropped a bombshell with her supposed insiders knowledge that Charles's cancer is incurable and he won't move into Buckingham Palace in 3 years time casually slid into an artcile dissing the twerking video.

https://archive.ph/5sZVi

I find Camilla Tominhey’s writing style, and her politics, and The Telegraph, all pretty odious tbh. The Torygraph is no better than a lowly tabloid now. Interesting that it appears that someone in William’s camp has apparently used her as a means to convey certain messages. If this is true; I don’t think it’s a particularly wise move tbh!

I mean who needs to take a discreet poll to work out whether to reconcile with your son or not fhs? If that is true, then all it does is demonstrate the calculated nature of the RF tbh! And that public opinion matters more than the King’s relationship with his second son. Again, if it is true, it’s pretty despicable if you think about it and kind of demonstrates what Harry was up against all along.

As does a statement that the Institution will never reconcile with the Sussexes and that the Wales’s are effectively too busy doing their duties and parenting for reconciliation with Harry to be a top priority. If they have chosen the Torygraph to be the vehicle to spread these messages, then that is pretty cowardly tbh. And if it’s true, they are doing the very things that they are accusing Harry of doing; ie putting conversations that should take place in private, in to the public domain.

I mean, everyone knows that William has the time and money to try and reconcile if the will was there. He could easily charter a private jet to the nearest airport to Montecito tomorrow if he wanted to! So those excuses are untrue and rather cowardly. It would be better to just say you are not interested in doing so than using their rather light “work” schedule as an excuse!

As for Charles not moving to Buck Palace, even after the extortionate renovations that are being carried out; it’s hardly breaking news. This was written about in many press articles in 22 and 23; it’s possible to Google them very easily. Charles continues to live a ridiculously lavish lifestyle and not only has Clarence House and St James Palace at his disposal, but he has the use of about eighteen other properties. It’s so extravagant and unnecessary, particularly as head of state of a country where homelessness is rife, but no one seems to question it.

As for his health, I hope he feels better soon, but it is hardly a bombshell that he “he may die “with” cancer, but not “of” cancer following a rigorous treatment programme”. Many elderly people live quite well with various types of cancer, well in to their nineties and beyond. Especially those with access to excellent health care, the best organic diets and plenty of green space in which to exercise. So I hope that is the case for him.

Sarah Ferguson made a TV programme about how she was going to help do up a run down community centre. I drive past it, in ruins obviously.
How do they sleep at night?

Harry and Meghan are one terrible accident away from being on the throne. There's nothing wrong with the video for their own private use - if they like to have footage of themselves behaving like twats, that's their look out. However I do think that, given their position, it's just awful to release it publicly - they must be trying to provoke KC into some sort of confrontation or response. Imagine the possibility of having someone on the throne who has voluntarily shown the world a video of themselves looking like they are pooing on the floor, with their skirt hoicked up.

It really wouldn't matter, since these people don't do anything that actually needs doing.

EvieBB · 08/06/2025 20:28

So, by the same token how can you dislike Sarah Ferguson if you don't know her?
Did you not see the Oprah interview?? Until then I didn't really read the papers and wasn't interested either way about her and thought "good for you" when they decided to leave the Royal Family as I assumed they just wanted privacy. Then they did the Oprah interview and I was flabbergasted and then angry at how many lies she spouted. Provable lies. It then became clear who she really was. I didn't make my mind up from magazine stories, or hearsay but by observing things that she said straight from her mouth. That was enough for me. She has all the hallmarks of narcissism and I've had experience of one so I know the signs. End of.

I think it's all so weird, cringe, narcissistic and de-grading.

Sure, do what you want in the privacy of your own home/labour ward/whatever.

But why does the world need to see this?

Most people.have things they do at home, in the privacy and comfort of their safe, secure family. Hec, I dance around the kitchen with my kids! But most people can understand boundaries and what should be kept personal. Would I have danced in the labour ward if i felt well enough? Maybe. Would I video it? Probably not. Would I post the video to the world? No way!

I can't imagine what prince Harry would have thought, if you'd said to him when he was about 20yrs old and in the army "one day you will publish a book which details your most personal and intimate moments for the world to read, you will personally publish a book which tells the world intimate secrets about your family and their private thoughts, words and struggles. You will do this while your grandparents are ill and dying or deceased. You will also marry a women who, after marriage, will post photos of herself and your children's body parts (head, toes, backs, etc..) on tiktok and Instagram daily, your wife will video herself twerking, flashing her thighs and butt, and squatting to lyrics about a 'baby mumma'. You will appear in a video squatting and pointing to your crotch. You will do all this willingly. You will do this while your father is dying of cancer. There is no area, no private part, no word or deed that you or your wife will not make public, that you will not show to the world. You will even sell out your babies. You will be happy for your wife to post their voices to the world, to post intimate pictures of you with them, of her pregnancy scans, of her time on the labour ward, of her trips to Disney with the children. Your wife will post daily photos of herself, her mood board, her cooking. She will tell the world daily what a great mother, wife and entrepreneur she is. She will never be private. She will always seek love via social media and showing the most intimate moments of her life."

I don't think Harry would have believed all this. There was a time when I believe he genuinely did value privacy. When he wanted to be "normal", to be away from the limelight, to lead a life away from media. How things turn out!

Please. Stop saying ‘End Of’ like you are a 12 year old. It’s not the end of anything and you repeatedly saying that does not make it any more true or help your cause, just makes you sound like a prat.

I don't think you sound like a prat EvieBB! Just ignore Meghan (Missohnoyoubetterdont).

EvieBB · 08/06/2025 22:24

You finished your post with end of, so who's the prat? You don't need to resort to put downs simply because you are unable to reply to the specific points made in my post. Anybody who defends bullies, liars and narcissists are the prats.
