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.

I thought it was funny, just a bit of fun.

I think people are unhinged, when it comes to their hatred of Meghan and Harry

Absolutely agree! There are far more important things in life/the world than to worry about the Sussexes and what they are saying/doing!

In all fairness it has been hard to avoid since yesterday afternoon

How?

I don’t think they’re horrible people but it blows my mind how many people will have ok’d this before it was posted.

They have the worst PR people. Meghan and Harry live on a different planet. They’re not ordinary people and can’t understand or judge how ordinary people will respond to their posts/ statements/ interviews. They pay people to do that for them. And those people get it wrong EVERY time.

Absolutely this, although I do admire her for having a thick skin. She's too narcissistic to believe she should have followed royal protocol. Dopey Harry goes with the flow. That racket music alone, is cringeworthy. If she wanted to be hip and down with it, she shouldn't have ventured into royal territory. That's the thing though, she wants it all.

scotstars · 05/06/2025 12:32

For 2 people who demanded their privacy they sure spend a lot of time acting desperate for attention....

Me too.

BeGreyFinch · 05/06/2025 12:33

I think it's also funny. They are both just people, having fun, being happy. It shouldn't matter what others think in this case.

Exactly. Criminals don't get this much attention and hate. No doubt they have their moments but so does everyone. The media ( a certain paper especially) really does brainwash the public with headlines and made up sources or made up controversies as if it's real. Lots of thick as shit ppl ready to believe it. Yes I realise she does seem to have her moments but maybe some could remember she's a person like the rest of us and no one should really have that much normalised hate directed at them.

Nailed it. Thick as shit people who will believe anything they are told.

I've even had people tell me "Oh I don't know, I only read the headlines" when asked what specifically she's done to be such a witch in their eyes.
Reading a whole article, even an untrue one with zero evidence, is too much for some people.
What's the name of that early 2000s film, where someone gets transported to the future and everyone is now really really stupid? I often think of it an seriously wonder if it will come true.

You are rather splitting hairs now aren’t you?! Of something is all over the place it’s hard to avoid any engagement with it.

Well I hadn't seen it at all. I still wouldn't even have been aware of it if the thread had been in the Royal Family topic.

"Shouldn't have entered into royal territory"

She married a man she fell in love with, and why shouldn't she?

Yes the hate H and M get is unhinged but if you think about it - it is planned
Some of the extreme hate comes from extreme right wing royalist plastic union flag hat types . Best ignored
Bit it was all drummed up by the press , the tabloid press and it is pure propaganda
Can’t have the little people notice that one ‘prince ‘ ( no one is royal ) can be active with his charities and take not a penny from the Windsor trough , while another does next to nothing and double dips the taxpayer .
The contrast is too stark hence the smear campaign .

TheAutumnCrow · 05/06/2025 12:36

Well, it’s certainly a spectacle for the world, I’ll give them that.

chachahide · 05/06/2025 12:36

I think it's a boring video no one, beyond family, would be interested in, surely? strange they've shared it. I imagine they think everyone would laugh and be really interested...

Noshowlomo · 05/06/2025 12:36

I’m not a fan of either but I love this. They look normal in it. And it’s clearly a monitor strapped to her!

MaggieBsBoat · 05/06/2025 12:36

awww just watched it. It’s sweet clearly two very happy and beautiful young, loved up people enjoying themselves.
I don’t know them but the hate makes no bloody sense.

It's all so sneaky and underhand, the hate is fed directly from "palace sources" on purpose to make the higher up royals look better.
Harry has explained all this several times.

I don’t think about them a lot and tend to scroll by most posts about any royal. I thought the pic of them were n the boat was cute and didn’t watch the video. I don’t understand the obsessive vitriol surrounding them 🤷‍♀️

Im not sure of the film but yes 100 per cent we getting more and more dumb. The irony being we have access to more info, we have more awareness of things and yet we can't learn to be balanced or fair. We must be stupid and extreme in everything we do. 🤣

Gymnopedie · 05/06/2025 12:39

We all know that anything put on the internet is not private. We are warned that anything we post on MN can be used by the press (particularly the Daily Mail). We know that there are peoople out there whose life purpose is being a keyboard warrior and being as offensive as possible.

There is no way to stop that, so when H&M post anything they should know they will get that reaction, as well as support. That's a risk they regularly choose to take and this is no different. The internet isn't going to suddenly break out in mass gooeyness.

FoodAppropriation · 05/06/2025 12:00

Made me smile.
Of course that's the sort of video that pops up around your child birthday, what mother doesn't remember that time?

It's sweet that Meghan doesn't take herself seriously, and they both do their own thing without giving 2 hoots for the haters. They get criticised anyway, might as well go for it.

Proves that leaving the country was the right decision for them.

But they are even more disliked and ridiculed in the US than they are here? So your comment doesn't really make sense. Their move to the US has been a disaster for them, they thought they were going to take the world by storm as a much lauded and beloved power couple.

But we also have access to more and more things that do everything for us. We are slowly unlearning to do anything for ourselves, even think for ourselves.
Bloody ChatGPT and the like because it's too much to ask for someone to write a bloody letter themselves any more.
No wonder we're starting to become a species that can't even think for themselves.
Frankly, we deserve to get taken over by robots 😂

It's harmless. The rabid Megan haters would complain the bloody woman breathes wrong. They are best ignored.

Agree.

I do hope they remove their titles now and be done with it.
