I'm no Meghan hater, but, if youre coming back to the uk and royal life, I do think the kids need to be shown.

Just like i like seeing Louis and the others, theyve got little personalities we want to see 🤷‍♀️

You’ve decided a wee boy is gay because of fuck all.

Camp does not necessarily equal gay.

MissMoneyFairy · Yesterday 20:44

hotmumshit · Yesterday 20:43

Yes, although Margaret was a hologram bless her

Was that because she was dead. Youre being ridiculous now.

No-one cares about seeing the kids. No one needs Meg to be putting them on Instagram. In fact I very much wish she would stop doing it.

Loads of peopl care
The very pepple who say they wish they would dissapper scour the intermet to find something else shes done that they can be offended by
They would have no hobbies if H&M suddenl dissappered

You said he was camp.

thats an overblown type of behaviour typically associated with gay men.

catch yourself on. He’s a wee boy.

In 2026, we dont associate such stuff with sexuality. A man or woman can be camp. And you dont have to be gay to be camp, and vice versa.

Where I’m from it does. I’ve never ever heard it used in any other way. A camp
man is a gay man with exaggerated behaviours. A man is described as camp
I’ve never ever heard a woman described as camp.

Don’t “we”?

adverteasing · Yesterday 20:46

Well, this is an insight! I am stunned that people actually think like this.

RandomUserName96 · Yesterday 20:47

Weird, creepy and unreasonable af

Even if any (or all) of their lives were taxpayer funded, you have zero rights tpwards, or ownership of, them or their children.

All UK children are entitled to taxpayer funding, does that mean you feel entitled to pictures of every child?

IStillHearTheWaves · Yesterday 20:47

Can't stand either of them, but their children are theirs. They don't owe the public anything! The longer they're kept out of the spotlight, the better for them.

Aren’t they all actors? Confused

8 year old children not so much.

There definitely are camp kids. There’s nothing wrong with being camp anyway.

And on earth is OP talking about a young child and sexuality? Really creepy, yes.

hotmumshit · Yesterday 20:48

nomas · Yesterday 20:41

Not sure why you’re getting a hard time.

If they do settle here, there likely will be pictures from time to time.

I suspect there will be a similar agreement with the press, that they can’t hound the kids.

Me neither tbh, was a genuine thread. I love meghan and Harry, and quite like wills and Kate.

I think that wills and Kate being parents has warmed me to them! Far more than their love story.

And I think Harry's kids will do the same. Especially as we watched Harry grow up.

But apparently “we” don’t mean camp when we use the word nowadays.

Yes. Op is just a wind up.

I'm surprised by the poll. Not intending to ask a silly question, but why?

Part of the royals deal is that we get a photo every year and see them during the Trooping the Colour, which I love.

They aren't working royals.

Huge respect for them for keeping their children out of the circus. They can't consent any more than any regular person's child can to having photos of them online.

Messedupmyusernameagain · Yesterday 20:49

I agree with this. Just keep the children out of any photos. I find it extremely annoying when they post twee photos with heads buried in parents’ shoulders and deliberately turned away as though they’re informal shots rather than carefully curated ‘look, here are our kids, but on principle, we’re not going to show you our kids’ pictures!

Loads of celebs do this. It's so irritating. Just don't show them. It's not compulsory.

Not about what the children look like.

No, just about literally everything H&M do.

x2boys · Yesterday 20:50

Knickerstoya · Yesterday 20:40

You don’t know that.

also camp? He’s a child ffs.

Many posters also decided he was autistic because he put his hands over his ears when the red arrows were doing a display directly above him

Nothing wrong with being camp. My best friend is as camp as Christmas.

everything wrong with describing a pre pubescent child as camp

readingmakesmehappy · Yesterday 20:50

Prince George is the future king. They can’t keep him hidden, so they do a very good job of controlling the pictures that are released to protect him and his siblings from the press. Similar happened with William and Harry.
Archie and Lily aren’t future working royals. They aren’t paid for by the taxpayer any more. They are sensible to keep them private as long as they can.

Yes, I suspect as the kids grow older they will get more interesting to the public too.

It depends on how involved H&M are in public life. In any case, the press will respect the kids right to privacy.
