Royal style & gossip: from christening gowns to tennis lawns

And I think we all can agree that it's much more fun if we stick to critiquing the clothes rather than the women!

The pictures I can see on insta, show some awkwardness between Kate and Meghan

I never thought I'd say this, but am starting to get annoyed that I can't access the DM for some reason. I hate them, but now and again I weaken when there's something with loads of pictures. But I can't see them because they won't let me past their cookie approval site. Argh.

what I have seen on twitter is al good.But I'm guessing Meghan hasn't been out with Archie much because she looks so awkward holding him near the car. AKA the "how-the-fuck-do-i-get-this-child-out-of-the-car-seat-without-bashing-his-head" pose.

Do you have a link please @queenofarles

Link @queenofarles? The DM's photos show them together but I can't see their faces.

Archie is a big baby! You can see his face in this pic. Love Kate’s dress/whole look. Do we know where it’s from?

How do the DM know where Meghan’s dress is from already? You can’t even see it that well because of Archie and she’s not wearing it with the belt which makes it less identifiable as well.

Even if they are besties (which I think we can all agree is unlikely - cordial and friendly is probably the best we can hope for), it's got to be a bit stressful. It's not like they don't know that they're going to be watched obsessively?

Totes awks...

George is SO tall? He is 5!

Archie looks scrumptious.
Catherine looks very relaxed but has her hands full with Louis.
George is very tall.

George and Archie make Meghan look tiny.
If George isn’t standing on anything; I would say Meghan is about 5’:4”

George is very tall or Meghan is about 2ft shorter than her actors cv 😂

Loving the pics nice to see them all appear relaxed together in public.

Louis is such a character.
There doesn’t look to be much conversation between the duchesses.
I think it was a huge pr set up

Kate and Meghan both look beautiful in their own distinctive ways, K is such an English rose and M is a Californian beach girl. I hope for their own sakes they get along, it's no fun to have a tense relationship with your ILs (speaking from bitter experience)

A PR set up? Well if it was it's a bit shit then if there's no conversation and it's awkward between them!!!

Personally I know what it like trying to have a conversation while feigning interest in what your husband is doing, seeing friends and corralling three children!!

Interesting that I often see people say Meghan looks tiny/short if she’s about 5 ft 4. I’m the same height and I’m still taller than most of my female friends! Maybe it’s because she’s thin. The average height of women is 5 ft 3 apparently.

I think they look fine and fairly relaxed. Can't really see Meghan's face much but she seems to be concentrating on Archie (as expected) and Kate is concentrating to making sure her three children don't all run off in three different directions!

I'm not BFFs with my SiLs but I get on with them well enough to pass a day in their company, and I suspect the same applies to Kate and Meghan. Just because they're married to brothers doesn't mean they have to be close.

Louis has put on Kate’s sunglasses in those pics

“I think it was a huge pr set up”

Bit of a shit one then! How can anyone tell anything from those pictures......

A PR set up? Well if it was it's a bit shit then if there's no conversation and it's awkward between them!!!

This.
They have their hands full with 4 kids.

Kate looks so cool calm and collected, Meghan looks awkward but is rocking the green dress, her hair has got really long.

Queen i can’t access the DM pictures , I’m in holiday with terrible WiFi, so pictures take a
So long to download, the pictures I’ve seen on Insta, show some awkwardness between them, Louis was trying to grab Archie’s and Meghan Attention and she just looks on, Kate doesn’t look pleased to be there , they both look like they’d rather be elsewhere, the only time Meghan looks relaxed is with someone else, hope the pictures load

Meghan looks tense and out of place to me. Kate's family are gorgeous. It's nice to see them together, but not much interaction between them.

They both look great and true to their own styles. I think Meghan is shorter than claimed too. Yes, George is probably tall, but he's still only 5 . Charlotte is growing up fast too.

Honestly those photos are seconds in the whole day. It's like waiting until a celeb blinks and then that's the "pissed as a fart" photo.

I don't see any tension, just parents juggling children and watching a bit of polo. How much time for chatting does that leave. I love Louis, he's so scrumptious.
