Has The Royal topic been disappeared?

[Peasepuddingbloodycold]

And if not, it looks as though I've hidden it. Can anyone tell me how to unhide it?

@JaneJeffer Well I believe I was! I shared that I had read some info about the disappearing thread in the Telegraph, to which you responded ‘That’s not true!’
Read Saturday’s Telegraph for yourself - you’ll find the interview is there.

@GloomyDarkness I have the clingiest children ever but I can't imagine William and Katherine's children have that choice.

You would certainly hope so. If an entire topic disappears and MNHQ have no idea why it vanished or what caused it to happen that doesn't look great for the users of the site.

Agree with all. Meghan and her bridesmaids looked like sacks of potatoes on the day and her hair was plain scruffy - those lank bits hanging down the side of her face 😩

M did look utterly stunning in her second night event white dress though.

Those texts aren't factual. This is Harry's telling of the story in his book!

"also wonder why if Megan was so stressed she didn't delegate dresses and wedding to some of her staff and maybe ask Kate to contact one of them and not her."

She did delegate it. To the tailor that was standing by at KP.

Three weeks post birth a new mother needs to be resting and breastfeeding, the baby isn't in any sort of routine and probably feeds frequently for extended periods. It's completely unreasonable to be expecting her to be running around at dress fittings, hanging around with the other mothers. Kate has all my sympathy on this. And as regards dramas with Thomas Markle, if Meghan and Harry had made the effort to visit him at some point either before their engagement or in the run up to the wedding then I'm sure problems might've been avoided and I still find it extraordinary that they didn't visit him at any point before the wedding. I have seen it said that Kate simply couldn't understand how Meghan had no family and hardly any friends coming to the wedding but I daresay it meant she expected drama and was low on sympathy about it.

@Orangefir but I guess there were time constraints.

To be honest all the flower girl dresses looked god awful, and fitted terribly.

They looked like something your nan would knock up, out of 2 pillowcases and some left over curtain lining when you were the angel at the school nativity back in the day.

That dress looked like someone's auntie had run it in her kitchen TBH.

Indeed.

Hence my need for objectivity and reading the full text [If real]. I know it's difficult for some people who hate someone to see anything good in them (and vice versa) but this one isn't "all on meghan" and I don't hesitate to call her out where necessary.

Yep, I've done bugger all the last few days. Now I'll have to go back to interacting with my kids. 😭

Go on MNHQ 🤣

Channel Camilla!

@ShamedBySiri but why are you assuming she is expected to hang about & run around?
I'm sure Kate could have arranged to be there for a set time.

This is Charlotte's dress.

The meme is Camilla from Channel 4’s The Windsors.

Eugenie's bridesmaid's dresses were far better.

Didn’t M & H jump the queue with regards to royal weddings? Wasn’t Eugenie supposed to go first but gave up her spot as they were in such a hurry? No wonder it was all so chaotic.

I haven't had time to do that sort of analysis to any accurate degree unfortunately. I have an impression though based on another MN board that the aims and objectives may be more about disruption of Mumsnet than genuinely supporting the forces of Sussex or Cambridge advancing to a battlefield in a car park in north London.

I think Kate should have delegated the dress alterations to her mother / sister/ staff and just got on with it. A bride has a lot on and Meghan had more than most with her father.
Im no Meghan fan I think Kate seemed a bit precious.

Or just got one of their nannies to do it or of course Charlottes dad! If Katherine was just like every other mum juggling breastfeeding with fully parenting the other children and everything else then maybe William should have been parenting too!!

Is it that they took screenshots or that the text was stored in Meghan's phone, like regular people do?

I know the aren't above screenshots but still, unless you delete every message, or do a clean up every year, some of us have messages going back years that we've forgotten. I suppose I could go looking for something someone sent me once if I thought that would help my narrative.
