Harry and Meghan - "It Has Come To This"

These are the words of Prince Harry. He sounded defeated. He has lost his military patronages. He is no longer living anywhere near his brother or father. He is moving to Canada.

Meanwhile, Meghan has been photographed in the park, with Archie and the dogs, beaming. It seems that she alerted the paparazzi herself. Meghan has truly got what Meghan wants.

I wonder what they said to one another when he got back?

What's with the swearing ?

I generally don't swear, either in RL or online. However, MN is known as the site with swearing and I'm afraid anyone who objects to that would be hard-pressed to find a thread entirely free of it.

You know what you are getting if you use MN.

You know what you are getting if you read threads about the RF, MM or indeed any other subject - people who agree with you and people who don't.

exactly - so why are posters who don't agree with other posters or the level of criticism aimed at H&M on this thread told that they are "controlling" and to f**k off ?

strictlymomdancing · 21/01/2020 11:41

I don't think all their friends have abandoned them. Most are staying quiet.

Serena is definitely distancing herself if her husband (Alexis?) tweets are anything to go by. Definitely about Meghan but trying to hide that fact by referencing 'tech'. Yeah we aren't fooled. Nor has he denied its really about Meghan. I don't blame Serena for being pissed off - Meghan made the tennis all about her.

Misha Noonoo (sp?) hinted at a colaboration, so maybe still friends, or business partners at least.

Jessica Mulrooney still a friend.

Jamila Jamil defending Meghan - doubt she's a friend but seems to think she is cause of one mention by Meghan.

Not sure Harry has any friends left though - the Van Custom (sp?) wife made a dig on instagram.

Re: the speech at sentabale - Harry could have just issued a statement via his beloved instagram instead of making the event all about him (again!)

SCOLD! there’s a scold on the new thread

Myimaginarycathasfleas · 21/01/2020 11:43

There is a difference between seeking to influence someone's behaviour by talking to them ,putting another point of view and controlling someone .

The problem is, this poster isn't putting another point of view. They would rather spit venom and demand the thread is shut down.

I personally would find it interesting if they did contribute constructively. All perspectives which add another dimension to the discussion are welcome here.

Gwilt160981 · 21/01/2020 11:45

It'll probably end in tears. She's ditched her own family and ditched the royals. Megan Will probably do a tell all documentary.

strictlymomdancing · 21/01/2020 11:45

I think Harry was actively looking for an actress to date actually or some kind of celebrity. I suspect he thought a celebrity might be better placed to deal with the attention.

He was pictured with Jenna Colman and dated Ellie Goulding I think too.

Then he met Meghan. I doubt it was a blind date type thing and more something that was properly arranged through their people. The speed of the whole relationship / marriage / baby makes me suspicious too, like it was all prearranged. Not a normal relationship at all. Whereas W&K met at university, took their time getting to know each other, waited 10? years to get married, her family spent time with the windsors all getting to know each other (I remember pics of them going hunting in balmoral).

CoolCarrie · 21/01/2020 11:45

I think Harry wanted to have the last word with that speech, but it was rude and Ill thought out, just as the whole situation has been. Meghan probably thinks she has got him away from his nasty family, just as she has removed her family and friends from her life. There is something very telling about someone who behaves as she does and it’s not good, I think she is a user, and Harry should have waited longer, just as William did.

NotEverythingIsBlackandWhite · 21/01/2020 11:45

Meghan described herself as "incredibly ambitious" and "strong-willed" in that interview which shows she, at least, used to, have insight into her own character. She also came across as supremely confident and very talkative.

Part of an answer to an audience question about what advice she could give to an up and coming actor who also wants to do humanitarian work about facing challenges
If you just stick with it you might see a change. Shame she didn't follow her own advice.

SnowyRacoon · 21/01/2020 11:51

@JurassicParkaha very good post, I agree entirely with you.

Oaky321 · 21/01/2020 11:56

@Imstinkyeddie Correct, the blind items reported that the visit to Canada House was in fact to get their visas sorted.

Froq · 21/01/2020 11:59

What are we due today then?

Meg does a charity visit followed by a romantic dinner with Harry?

‘We’re just ordinary people’ on a stroll or shopping perhaps?

CatherineOfAragonsPrayerBook · 21/01/2020 11:59

Morning (just!) all!

Morning thread haters!Grin

I'll start by saying I've just had a breakfast of mashed avacado with poached eggs and rocket salad with streaky bacon. Complimented of course with a flat white soya milk coffee.Smile

@Tricicorn I'm sure it's not as bad as you think it is!

On TM. I am interested in watching the interview but I do think he ought to rise above!

Serena’s husband’s Tweet thread! 🔥

I don't give a fig about the sling-I'm fairly sure my kids looked that that in their slings.
But why go for a walk in a public park when you are meant to be at your wits end with any sort of press and lying low? It makes no sense to me.

Obviously Canada is a free country and they can do as they like-but it seems at odds with their stated aim. Surely the mansion has a big enough garden to go for a walk around?

Imstinkyeddie · 21/01/2020 12:06

Ah!
Thank you oaky

peridito · 21/01/2020 12:07

so saying "How about you don't have one ? " (with ref to a new thread ) is demanding ?

saying There surely can't be anything left to discuss. She's gone, he's gone. Let them go and live their lives isn't expressing another POV ?

as for spitting venom I guess you mean the rest of the post

To talk about starting a thread when there really is nothing to say except to bitch about her is horrible.

is that really spitting venom ? I don't see many comments about posters telling others that they are storming in/policing the thread/controlling and they should f.o..

Froq · 21/01/2020 12:09

I’d love a block button

CatherineOfAragonsPrayerBook · 21/01/2020 12:10

I don't blame Serena for being pissed off - Meghan made the tennis all about her.

Setting things aside for a moment, (and assuming it is true) can this really be the reason for S stepping back? She was invited to the wedding and reception after all, plus she made very complimentary comments to the press about M. I don't see how M attending a match would pee anyone off to that degree...especially someone like S who knows what it is like to be in the press for the wrong reasons. I would have expected more tolerance. Most celebs are self-seeking and networking hungry after all. I would be shocked for anyone with that degree of fame to be so naive to this, and would imagine a certain about of 'vanity' tolerance is built into almost every friendship.

BackyardChickens · 21/01/2020 12:11

You know I was thinking about these threads yesterday. Thinking maybe we have piled on a bit and we should give her benefit of the doubt.

Then..bang! Arranged pap shots with a huge grinning face.

It will all end in tears, mark my words.

Just read the James Kirkup piece in the Spectator. Rather heartbreaking.
