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.

@CatherineOfAragonsPrayerBook

Are you ok now?

JulietJanuary · 16/01/2020 13:23

The painting a whole nation as hateful is not rational though.

NaturalBornWoman · 16/01/2020 13:23

allegedly because there was a snow storm

Wouldn't you check the forecast before going on a completely unnecessary appointment by seaplane in that region?

JulietJanuary · 16/01/2020 13:24

I check the forecast before doing the washing, lol!

SerenDippitty · 16/01/2020 13:24

She looked to the past and tried to steer away from the same mistakes the took other spouses down. No toe sucking, no cheating (tampon gate), no duchess Doolittle, and you just berated her for it.

You’re saying she deserves praise for not cheating on Harry in 19 months of marriage?

CatherineOfAragonsPrayerBook · 16/01/2020 13:26

Thank you @SuperSange. Feeling a bit less forlorn now that someone has asked, although not sure If I'm completely OK cause you're the only one that's inquired

I never had an opinion on Meghan in particular before last week.
I had spotted Harry.

Mummy195 · 16/01/2020 13:27

I did not say praise, but she does not need berating, she did nothing.

JulietJanuary · 16/01/2020 13:29

I hope you are thriving CatherineOfAragon!

I am recovering from a bad migraine, but don't like to make a fuss..

CatherineOfAragonsPrayerBook · 16/01/2020 13:32

@JulietJanuary Grin

(Although I do sincerely hope you recover fully from your Migraine. I know how debilitating they can be!)

NotEverythingIsBlackandWhite · 16/01/2020 13:32

Considering his interests seemed to include hunting and killing defenceless animals both large and small I'd say that at least is one good thing about her.
Well, yes, that is another anomoly. It has been reported that PH loves Africa and even years ago wanted to live there and look after the animals. How does this square with his love of hunting?

When he last spent Christmas at Sandringham with Meghan I think he abstained from going on the shoot? Maybe she has changed his views on hunting and shooting?

MangoFeverDream · 16/01/2020 13:35

d she doesn't appreciate the sheer, unrelenting hard graft the RF do, and have always done. Opening shopping centres. Cutting ribbons. Visiting hospitals

Hard graft? Tbh they are incredibly well rewarded considering the little they do. It’s just not all that glam like Megan was expecting.

SingingLily · 16/01/2020 13:39

My fake Duchess of Sussex email account has just received an email from the Daily Record asking if I am her PA and would I be agreeable to a telephone interview about MM's charity work with women?

Fallen, that is hilarious! But entirely predictable if MM's personal assistant does use a Hotmail account; they are notoriously prone to spam and hacking.

I also love the fact that posters keep popping up and asking if everyone is OK. That's making me laugh too.

However, here's something MM does need to know, and it's an entirely British thing.

Once the whole country starts taking the mick out of a public figure, it's game over for that person. Really. No one ever takes them seriously again.

Froq · 16/01/2020 13:52

Has anyone seen the interesting, yet rather sinister, twitter account @ Torontopaper1

I totally agree with you, @SingingLily. Actually though, I don't think she cares what any of us Brits think any more.

And that's just fine by me. Never used to have an opinion on her at all. I do now though, and it's not pretty.

fallen121 · 16/01/2020 13:55

@CatherineOfAragonsPrayerBook

I'm sure if we ask her nicely, Meghan will email you from her hotmail account to make sure that you're ok.

Meghan cares.

SpinneyHill · 16/01/2020 13:56

Maybe she has changed his views on hunting and shooting?

Nah, she's just told him not to do it as it doesn't look good for her.

itwaseverthus · 16/01/2020 13:57

This looks very odd, not least because Richblonde street doesn't exist in Glasgow! beta.companieshouse.gov.uk/company/SC650317/filing-history

CatherineOfAragonsPrayerBook · 16/01/2020 13:58

Why is she visiting refuges and stuff now? In what capacity? Why not wait a bit until things are clearer?

I should think she's anxious to 'sell' herself to the Canadians. Particularly left leaning ones as well as left leaning politicians. She's signifying where she stands politically and outlining the sorts of concerns she/they will be involved with. No topic hotter than CC at the moment and the ridiculous rules of cross/intersectionality mean you can pivot from that stance onto many other causes.

It's an attempt to garner support for keeping and ultimately paying for them to remain there. I suspect she's being advised by the Mulroney woman who must understand something about politics her FIL is the former Prime Minster of Canada after all.

I also find it interesting that Mulroney apparently attempted to put pressure on Gina Cowne to 'amend' a statements she made to the MoS

Link to details here

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

The MoS complained to Prince H communications secretary about it.

I wonder if this is why she hasn't posted any support on her insta this time, because her interference with the BP would look none too good?

This court case looks like it could lead to embarrassment for a few people, although I can't see Mr Markle actually going through with it all. He found the idea of attending the wedding stressful and has a heart condition, so no one could blame him.

CatherineOfAragonsPrayerBook · 16/01/2020 14:03

Do you really think so @fallen121?

Llareggub · 16/01/2020 14:03

What’s the Companies House thing all about? How strange.

thetideishigh · 16/01/2020 14:07

Quoil Ltd ?

Given the urban dictonary explanation of the word QUOIL - that all seems very odd.

Puzzledandpissedoff · 16/01/2020 14:07

Ignore me if it's already been said, but did anyone else notice Harry wasn't wearing a seatbelt on that arrival photo?

It's not as if the Duke of Edinburgh was driving (!!) but with Harry's family history I wouldn't have expected that ...

DandyAndFine · 16/01/2020 14:08

Checking in. Been asleep or groggy with the blasted flu all morning so catching up with old thread and this one.
