Poor woman looks like she was about to cry Sad

I think Harry has had enough. It looks like they've had some sort of bust up before they went on the balcony.

Yes of course, that's surely it.

The baby was crying.

Blimey.

Its like any set of parents though he has left Archie loads since he was born so probably doesnt think anything of it. This is her first time - and it looks like it

I warm to her though because of it she looks like a woman struggling to be away from her son

The video is doctored. Look at the weird jerky movements from Prince Andrew.

When you marry a rich spoilt man then you are expected to be ready to pay attention to them all the time. Bonding, breastfeeding, not using nannies is approved of in theory until it eats into their time or they feel neglected.

Please, just give her a break. She's married into the most photographed family in the world, she's just had a baby and now she's straight back 'on duty'......

Oh gosh, this thread and the rest of the media speculation proves how people can twist any situation into a drama, just so they can bitch about it.
It's pretty fucking sad actually


^^ this is spot on

How do you know that? How can be sure this is her first time away?

Maybe is us, maybe it isn’t, but you cannot possibly know that.

She looked very upset. Poor woman. He basically issued an order and I can imagine she felt humiliated and angry and I think most people would

That's quite an assumption to make

We don't know that the baby was even there. We don't know whether she's left him before. We don't know if there's a nanny. We know nothing other than gossip fills a vacuum...

Orr....

He heard the baby cry.. turned around.. asked nanny to look after baby.

Meghan turned around and he told her not to worry it’s ok but baby is crying.

She insisted she wants to go to the baby but he insisted she didn’t need to and to just get the balcony over with for now.

She wasn’t comfortable as a new Mum to ignore her baby so blinked with the stress of the guilt of it all.

I would’ve behaved in exact same way

Stop being obsessed with faulting their relationship it’s gross

Do you gossip about everyone or just the Duchess of Sussex?

People project ocean-linersfull of baggage onto these tiny and, in isolation, meaningless moments and use them to confirm their own prejudices and beliefs. I remember when Kate gave birth to George - there was a lot of snark about how she had seen her hairdresser before her mother and the other members of her family. She hadn't, but people wanted to believe it because it confirmed their biases about her being a shallow clotheshorse blah blah blah, so they repeated it ad nauseum until it took on a life of its own.

Wow, poor woman. I'm ​not a fan but surely it's not nice to continuously bash a woman who just had a baby like this. If it's the scenario described above about baby crying (an assumption but it looks like it) I wouldn't like to be told to turn around. I really feel for her actually.

We have literally no idea what was going on. It's 30 seconds.

All we can see is some muttering and Harry gestures to the front.

Could have been baby crying, something could be going on behind them, and Harry's suggesting she looks away.

Or they could have had a massive fight that morning, and they could be being off with each other. It happens, that 30seconds of their day was nothing.

Why was Harry looking round before Meghan looked round?

The plot deepens.

Yes, she does look upset.

The Queen telling William to stand up is class!

Why was none of this lengthy exchange picked up on camera or by the lip readers IABU Queen

Why do you see zebras where the’s Only horses?

They were chatting, he reminded her of the protocol.

No crying baby, no nannies, no drama, no divorce.

He said turn around she looked upset surely people are just saying what they see. It isn't bashing either of them. Why are they never to be commented upon?

Jesus fuck there's some sad sacks on here, obsessing about the marriage of people they'll never met, desperate to invent reasons to feel superior to a woman who had the audacity to be a working black woman who married a prince.

Get over yourselves.

And if any of you are that fright squad on Twitter, get therapy for fuck's sake. You need help.

If you watch it again actually Harry looks at something. Meghan turns around to see what Harry's doong/sayimg/what's going on. Harry says something to meghan, looks like "alright".

Then she turns back and Harry carries on talking to her, so she turns back around to look at him. Then he sort of indicates forward

Reckon they were just having a chat, and doing that thing you do in the cinema when the film starts. Your chatting quickly finish your sentence and gesture at the screen to say "films starting"

It’s quite disturbing how gleeful and pleased some of those twitter accounts are at their perception that Harry is being a shit to Meghan. I really don’t know what’s wrong with people.

I don't understand why anyone would call Harry, "Spoilt".

Is it because she was an actress Roisin? Is that her shocking crime against decency? Is this the 18th century again?
