Genuine screen shots?? Good grief.
But. If the bridesmaid episode was a source of real grievance - and therefore constitutional significance, as - why else should we be invested? I think that the lesson here is that women - and men! - but seemingly particularly women given the media storm, are particularly vulnerable at specific points in their lives. And all need our sympathy.
For example, I can remember being a crazy and totally ridiculous Bridezilla, really concerned about ribbon, for, example, a subject that has never interested me previously or since. I was not getting married in front of an audience of gazillions. Getting married creates loons of many of us (obvs not those who marry in a tin bath, and have beans on toast with the local homeless).
But ... if there is any edifying message emanating from this is it that we surely should also be particularly considerate towards the behaviour of a mother of a tiny baby, required to be on public display always? And to have been required also to manage the expectations of her older (still very small) children at an extraordinarily difficult moment for them both? My children have been insanely jealous of their newborn siblings to the point of total despair (from me), immediately before and, goodness, after the birth. It's quite understandable that poor - three-year-old! - Charlotte was a bit emotional. And her mum? Around the wedding? To be able to get herself out of bed, let alone appear in a coat dress, looking stunning.
But why on earth was she required to do that? I do not think that those are the questions that 'thought leaders' and 'feminists' H and M were interested in changing ...
