Royal style & gossip: from christening gowns to tennis lawns

[QueenOfTheAndals]

Previous thread

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

Forgot this ,

Meghan's just had a baby. Possibly still bleeding. And wondering if she did the right thing coming to watch, where was she going to feed, we're they too hot, did they need sunscreen etc etc.

Personally I'd have used a flat pram rather than the awkward holding but each to their own and maybe she has one in the boot.

“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.”
5 papped pictures and you can get all that out of them?

Long range photos, children being kept an eye on and they could have well have had a conversation before and afterwards. How was it tense or awkward?

She does seem to be holding the baby awkwardly

The three photos you uploaded are the only ones I've seen that show Kate being anything other than smiley and relaxed.
They're looking after their DC, and there's never much time for interaction then. Might have been nice for Kate to hold Archie for a little while, but then everyone would have said it was a stunt, so I suppose there's no point anyway.

“Kate doesn’t look pleased to be there “

Well, apart from the fact that someone else down the thread posted another couple of pictures obviously from within seconds of yours with Kate with a huge smile.

Honestly, I think people see what they want to see. I'm sure photos of William and Harry with anything less than an ear to ear grin will be taken as evidence of their ongoing feud too!

I'm very late as you fell of my TIO and I've been busy but I was very interested in what @Daisypie said about the possible situation and feelings between Diana's sisters and Camilla. Sad and difficult all round.

Love the many photos of the Cambridge's and the Sussex's today but hate the DM comments about Meghan. What is wrong with some people? .

In other news, I'm sleeping in an actual castle tonight .

Here's a photo of Meghan with HM that'll definitely be taken as evidence that she is not approved of.

But oops, look at this other photo from the same event!

George is a mini Pa Middleton.
Louis is such a character. I can quite imagine him & Charlotte ganging up on poor old George as young siblings do.
Lovely photos of everyone.

You are right, Queen
Kate and Megan are both best buddies, it must be terribly mean of me to think that, 🤷🏼‍♀️

There may be tension but both women are superb at putting on a show when necessary - I don’t see that here. It just looks more natural to me. Neither probably wants to be there but there’d be more comments if they weren’t.

For all I-or you know, Kate and Meghan hate each other’s guts. Or they might love each other to death. The point is that the pictures tell us nothing! Or anything we want them to.

Why do you think neither of them wants to be there??

How cute is pic number 2 of the Norwegian siblings

Meghan has just had a baby & she may be stressed about the heat, keeping him comfortable etc

Kate - 3 little ones at a polo match?? I’d rather poke something in my eye!

Yes I am projecting

Even if they get on well as women in their 30s with long-established friends they are unlikely to be very close after only knowing each other for 2 years.

Kate looks so happy in some pics. Meghan looks a bit petrified as I did when dd was a new baby.

I think that Kate is looking tense and awkward round these two royals and she's not even looking at or talking to them. I hate that she has to be used to give them good PR and to pretend that everything is OK. 🤣

I wish we could see MM's face when Louis is wearing the sunglasses. I wonder is she making a face back at him and is that why Kate is laughing

3 small children at a polo match, meaning there are flying hard balls and excitable horses all over the place... I wouldn’t just look tense, I’d be bald with stress!

@queenofarles Huh? I never said they were best buddies. As I said in an earlier post, they're probably cordial and friendly enough to each other but not best friends.

Polo makes me think of golf on horseback.
