Previous thread

-Today Prince Harry is doing the draw for the Rugby League. (Not sure if it’s a public location but there’s bound to be a lot of press interest)

  • He has said he is going to stay in the UK for a bit longer to thrash out the details of “Megxit”
  • Meghan has been on a second surprise visit in Vancouver
  • Opinion coming out of Canada is that; not only do they not want to fund the Sussexes; having a member of the a Royal Family make Canada their permanent home is not acceptable.

It's sad that she felt crushed and couldn't breath etc but all these leaks are going to do is make things worse for her reputation here and make people dislike her even more.
Ultimately that then makes Harry look bad and his going to have to face his family at some point for the odd engagement and funerals etc.
Maybe she is behind the leaks so then it will be clear she will never come back ; she won't want to face them and they probably won't want to see her at all.
It's all about her ; I couldn't do this I couldn't do that, i wasn't happy ; hardly any thought for her husband or her child at all.
She wasn't a kid when they got married : she wasn't as naive as lady Diane was about the media she must have realised it wouldn't be a walk in the park surely? You can't it all your own way in life but she doesn't seem to understand that!

BillieEilish · 16/01/2020 21:37

This latest thing... well, it is totes not ok. I was sorry for Hazza and felt he had been manipulated, now I dislike him equally.

He should have stuck up for himself and his family and his country in this latest PA stunt. He didn't then he is absolutely abhorrent.

Neither of you thought the efforts made for you in your extremely short time together here were enough, you hate the country, the people, the family. So just bugger off and stop talking to anyone and everyone about it. Talk about scorched earth.

They deserve each other and I hope to God they do not come back to ruin any wedding and use it to keep themselves royal relevant, because they are 100% not nice people IMO. They would now cast a miserable shadow on any event.

I am not OK with this.

Planeplane · 16/01/2020 21:37

Hope everyone is ok btw. All the checking in has been lovely. I'm ok-ish, generally a bit grumpy but having some wine so that's helping.

Planeplane · 16/01/2020 21:41

Also agree that I was still feeling a lot of sympathy for Harry but that video has really disgusted me. They're both behaving like entitled children, and just for any angry posters...I would be very very happy to say that to their faces.

WendyMoiraAngelaDarling · 16/01/2020 21:41

but just so you know, currently it's not MM showing Britain up in front of the watching world, but rather the public's screaming tantrum reaction. It's like watching toddler WWF.

Well given that in a survey today it seems that 73% of Canadians who voted don't want to have to pay for M & H and aren't at all into the idea of resident royals, I don't think the above is true but whatevs Smile

NumbersStation · 16/01/2020 21:42

Well if she does come back for weddings and funerals she will have the biggest pair of nerfballs known to man.

She will, of course, be able to look them in the eye and will have a feck you petulant pout on to boot.

I hope the RF just give the pair of them the mumsnet head tilt.

It is disgusting because they have discounted the British public on the actions of the few.

There will not be flag waving for the pair of them - there will be plenty of discussion on where the flags should be jammed though.

The80sweregreat · 16/01/2020 21:42

I bet lots of people have quietly dumped Meghan too over the years once they grew tired of the me me me attitude and barging people out the way to get to the top!
These friends she has now are just in awe of her but we all live and learn.

CornforthWhite · 16/01/2020 21:42

@Froq what are the rumblings on Twitter? What hashtags are you following? Genuinely interested how do people know stuff about them???

SpinneyHill · 16/01/2020 21:43

Every single adult Brit has paid for the RF without any choice, of course we're going to discuss it when one of them turns round and gives us all the middle finger treatment.
Deal with it.
If you don't like the thread go and read a book about how brilliant America is.

BillieEilish · 16/01/2020 21:44

I am glad you are ok Planeplane, I am still sneezing, but as you asked, I think I might be ok soon. It helps when people ask, not many do.

I also hope everyone else is ok.

JulietJanuary · 16/01/2020 21:46

There is toddler WWF?

Andylion · 16/01/2020 21:48

Well if she does come back for weddings and funerals she will have the biggest pair of nerfballs known to man.

I hope they don't attend Beatrice's wedding as it would be a circus. Hopefully by the time the next funeral happens, things will have cooled down.

SingingLily · 16/01/2020 21:49

The Sussexes benefit from public money.

Taxpayers' money.

That makes it our business too.

meinethegreen · 16/01/2020 21:50

This is becoming eerily similar to the serf uprisings of bygone days. Meanwhile BJ is out there putting money back in the pockets of the privileged while we all sit her and throw aprons at each other. What would the suffragettes say about the things we women of today are so passionate about. Sure a nice bit of gossip is all fun over one cuppa or the other. Some of you have been on here for 6 threads going on 7 now nearly 7000 messages on just this topic I mean there are other threads I'm certain. Imagine if we utilised this platform for worthier causes?

The level of hatred in this country is at an all time high! All that's ringing in my ears currently is OFF WITH THEIR HEADS! I would not be surprised if the death penalty is reprised in the U.K. in the next 5 years ( well there may not be a UK then but that's another story altogether)

SpinneyHill · 16/01/2020 21:50

@BillieEilish I'm exactly the same, he isn't a bloody child, he had the power and contacts to make this happen and he isn't that thick to be described as a naive victim. Meghan ain't that good, I don't see how he couldn't have known about the smear campaign and he joined in with it.

I think duplicitous applies to both of them, he's embarrassed the family often enough and that's just with what they allowed the press to report on.

Don't let the door hit you on the way out and if it does don't bother moaning about how it was a racist door that caused the death of your mum while planning the sale of the door that belongs to your gran anyway.

Mummy195 · 16/01/2020 21:50

Been trying to find the layout of the lawsuit from the rags. Cannot find it anywhere. Could somebody link it please.

Something similar to MM's own lawsuit laid out by Byline.

www.bylineinvestigates.com/mail/2019/11/15/noen2cgslou82nzpgi0g3mpjebpd6i

Because what I have been seeing is the rags saying they needed to publish about MM life due to her status, but are not really addressing the fact that they chopped and emitted things on the original letter, nor do they publish that the lawsuit is way more than just about the letter.

BillieEilish · 16/01/2020 21:52

Sorry to derail...

NumberStation I watched an episode of Celebrity Coach trip today and could hear your comments in my head, I kid you not!

Have you seen it? It is comedy gold! I looked but couldn't see a thread.

Sorry everyone... back to H&M

The80sweregreat · 16/01/2020 21:52

I did predict all this at my work just before the wedding ; I said she would have a child fairly quickly then go abroad to live! I was shouted down and called a cynic ( I'm not the romantic sort , I admit)
I just had a feeling it wouldn't go that well.
Someone reminded me of my words the other day! I feel sad that I'm right as I don't like hearing about any family rifts or anything but I just had an inkling she would not get on with the others and feel stifled and just not fit in with their ways and traditions.

SeperatedSwans · 16/01/2020 21:54

Is it bad I want a Princess Anne and MM showdown 😳

I honestly do think Anne is quite capable of a verbal thrashing that would make anyone think twice about any more Instagram posts.

I do feel with all the "friends" saying how toxic the family is publicly, how hurt some of the RF will be who have literally probably done nothing of the sort, the likes of Eugene and Beatrice, Anne, Edward and Sophie. Can they not see that although they (the friends) think they are taking a swipe at W&K HMQ and PC, the others are prominent family members too and won't take kindly to being called toxic.

Cremebrule · 16/01/2020 21:57

They just played this all so badly. They could have possibly even rescued things after the first megxit announcement but not now. There has been too much petulant behaviour in constraint with the queen’s statement that was very measured and kind. They’d do well to just shut up now. I don’t even know if they’ll be able to come back for the weddings/funerals without causing a scene and that is mightily unfair on the rest of the family.

OVienna · 16/01/2020 21:58

I see the suffragettes have been brought in. What we are witnessing here is worthy of the court of Edward VII, more like. Old habits clearly die hard. And the reference to BoJo is incredible - "yes lots of things are happening in the UK but I haven't noticed because I've had my head right up my arse and I've been out of town for several weeks as well."

NumbersStation · 16/01/2020 21:58

I’m slightly scared at why you are thinking of my comments @BillieEilish ...

I haven’t seen CCT and am now tempted to see why I came to the fore.... Sad

Is Arg on it again? I’m a helluva munter and probably really do look like him in a frock so you could be forgiven.

Well that and I spew on buses (oh for a SussexRoyle sick bag) and I’m currently down with some winter spewy cough thing so it could be that....

BillieEilish · 16/01/2020 21:58

Seperated I would love that. Someone to actually confront her.

peridito · 16/01/2020 21:58

Yeah @Froq well rebutted .
These threads are nothing but factual aren't they ? And of course ,if it's a headline in a newspaper it goes without saying that it embodies truth .
After all the whole point of headlines is to spread the truth ,nothing to do with monetising gossip and pushing up sales .

SpinneyHill · 16/01/2020 21:59

@Mummy195 news.sky.com/story/meghan-v-mail-on-sunday-key-excerpts-of-defence-claims-highlighted-11909162

The website Blind Gossip has been accurate as true can be for a couple of years about them as well. They were talking about this 'big plan' months ago.
