I have noticed that the nastiness has ramped up.
Peopleare not even pretending that this is to do with the royal family now,just really slating everything about her.
I think it has now really stepped into bullying and should be frowned upon.
Places like mn for instance should step up and not allow it.
Sadly the media will continue, , whilst morgan and his ilk still have a voice it will only get worse.
Its all rather disturbing.

Sooner or later Samcro the proverbial will hit the fan someone will explode and the law suits will fly anything about the McCann's doesn't last long for that very reason, there's only so much shit people will take ...............

Samcro · 08/03/2020 18:34

Your not wrong.

I think its fine to let people talk about them , they are in the public eye. But the level of attacks just keep getting worse. If this was aimed at anyone else,i am sure there weould be an outcry,

It just seems so personal to me. Can't imagine any other famous person where it wouldn't be squashed.

But y'know... when, for instance there are threads on MN about an OW, and a cheating DH etc... the best advice to counteract the bad is to lead a happy fulfilled life and I think that's what they're doing.

PortiaCastis · 08/03/2020 19:29

Just saw Meghan on the BBC news and now I want that red dress even more especially as my fiancé went overboard with his comments about it as in Phwoar etc. The schoolboy looked over the moon at getting a hug bless him.

I love Tanya Gold. This is such a good analysis.

Roussette · 08/03/2020 20:05

That's a good article Laurie, thanks for linking it

Samcro · 08/03/2020 22:23

I need tohide on this thread
Ikeep reading man ones that make me feel like i need to go shopping for random stuff.
Sorry for derail

That is absolutely 👌🏻 by Tanya Gold.

SetPhasersTaeMalkie · 09/03/2020 06:42

I agree with so much of the Tanya Gold article.

Reading the coverage in some of the other papers and online criticism there's no doubt that they're doing the right thing. I can't see anything they've done on their short stay that could be criticized. It all seems to be straightforward, standard royal visits ( with amazing dresses).

Encyclo · 09/03/2020 07:34

Posted this in the wrong thread, but it's relevant on both I guess:

Seeing in the news this morning that Harry and Meghan will set up a charity to help injured armed forces veterans and those who are experiencing homeless.

I can see that being a cause close the Harry's heart.

Roussette · 09/03/2020 07:35

Very much so. It follows on from his Invictus games which is great.

mpsw · 09/03/2020 07:52

Did the announcement say how it expects to work with the existing charities which do that?

Notably Homes4Heroes, but there are others, plus of course everything that SSAFA and others do.

Encyclo · 09/03/2020 08:26

No further info yet that I can see.

Becles · 09/03/2020 09:11

@SetPhasersTaeMalkie (love the user name)

I can't see anything they've done on their short stay that could be criticized

I think you're new on this forum😁. Let me enlighten you, this visit according to MN she:

Didnt wear tights

Showed a sense of entitlement

Continued her refusal to dress like a member of the royal family

Straightened her hair

Continued not to behave with the same grace and forbearance as Michelle Obama

Wore white in March

Had her teeth bleached
Made Harry get his teeth bleached

She laughed, but Kate also laughed this week. She was clearly trying to upstage/ copy Kate

Is a confident public speaker

Has an American accent

Has the confidence of a trained actress

Her Instagram is all about her, while the W&K one is much more modest and about other people

Embarrassed the queen

Worked to undermine the royal family

Insisted on walking ahead of Harry

She made sure she looked at the photographer at every event

They made sure to bring their own photographer to events so they can kerching on the copyright

Harry looks sad

The nanny spends more time with Archie than she does

She's made this visit all about her, when it should have been about Harry

She was so fake when reacting to the marriage proposal

She held harry's hand

She's not capable of humility- instead a very unBritish smugness and bumptiousness

The umbrella photo was staged

She is grasping

She has close set eyes

She is a bad, third rate actress

She wore Givenchy

She snubbed an event by NOT wearing Givenchy

She was apparently staying at a central London hotel- when it came out that the papers had made it up, just like her to start the rumour mill by not properly briefing the papers

She's flaky

Theyhave a co dependent relationship

Even though the money for Frogmore did not come from the taxpayer, they need to repay it to the taxpayer

She wore spanx under a dress

She's given the queen such grief (far worse than Andrew)

Just waltzed back in without looking sufficiently sad and apologetic

Vulgar and publicity seeking

Plastic smile

They stayed at Frogmore, ridiculous costs to staff and heat just for a few days

Expecting security costs when FlyBe staff are in need

She wasn't prepared to commit to royal service and had a real attitude towards the queen and royal family

Shejust hasn’t got what it takes

She is out of her depth

Simpers in photos

She had someone holding her umbrella

Allegedly flew in her make up artist

She is: brazen, bratty, entitled, fake, not classy, affected, contrived, self absorbed, a narcissist, a user

Wanted to 'flaunt' (Daily Fail tm) her baby bump yet spitefully refuses to share pictures of her child

Constantbleating about hard life is

Only came back because she has a ton of debt

Went outside at the same time other members of the royal family were visiting places - because of her we didn't hear about Sophie, Camilla etc

Pictures of her events were published at the same time as other royals - she knew this would take the shine from their obviously more important work

As someone at risk of harm, she dares to expect us to pay for her security in the same way as we do Salman Rushdie or ex prime ministers

She has a fake smile

Obviously had work on her face

Had work done to pad her bum

Looked like Kim Kardashian

Colour matched with Harry in his military uniform, which is just not done

Left her baby behind

Deliberately didnt bring Archie because: wanted to spite the queen, cement her grip on Harry, raise the cost of pictures once she starts flogging them, a way to blackmail the royal family, keep him away from his cousins, knows Phillip could die at any time and wanted to make sure he never again sees the child

Visited a school in Dagenham, even though there was no point to it

Copied Michelle Obama by visiting a school

Some sort of svengali hold over harry

There's more but ...

LaurieMarlow · 09/03/2020 09:50

Loving your list becles. Extensive.

If I may add to it (many of these are more historical) ...

Coat flicking

Bump touching

Looking at William funny

Looking bad in that photo in the car (shows her ‘inner anger’ and ‘true self’ apparently Grin)

Doing too many high profile events, ignoring the little people

Not doing a high enough profile event for IWD, spending too much time on the little people when she could be making more impact

Using American phrases

Not recycling her clothes

Recycling her clothes

Spending too much money on clothes

Not spending enough money on stuff.

Eating avocados

Not going to balmoral (even though Harry hadn’t either, for years)

Watching her friend play tennis

Not being friends with the Clooneys long enough before hanging out with them

Smiling too much (reminiscent of some racist/paedophile the poster knew). I mean, Kate smiles far more, but apparently not relevant.

Not knowing exactly what she was getting into when marrying into the RF and predicting her ability to cope more accurately

Not sitting there and taking it when the tabloids were printing blatant lies and outright bullying her

Prioritising her own mental health

Refusing to pose on the steps of the Portland hours after pushing out her first baby

Rushing into marriage and motherhood (despite being in her late 30s.). Apparently there were doctors who could have informed her accurately about her fertility. Fuck me, they’d be worth a fortune if they existed.

I’m sure I’ll remember more Smile

Sunshineand · 09/03/2020 09:53

Wow @Becles

That list! Shocking that this is actually all stuff that has been said on this site alone.

Somebody on Twitter accused her of planting the proposing couple so that the cameras could capture her fake reaction to it.

Cerseirys · 09/03/2020 09:55

Let's face it, we could just replace everything on those two lists with "black" and that would be about the sum of it.

Samcro · 09/03/2020 09:57

but people will say "i'm not racist but"

Sunshineand · 09/03/2020 09:59

Not knowing exactly what she was getting into when marrying into the RF and predicting her ability to cope more accurately

But at the same time knowing exactly what she was getting into. When she said she didn't really know of Prince Harry she was LYING!

Refusing to pose on the steps of the Portland hours after pushing out her first baby
And refusing to let us know when she went into labour. We PAY for her for god's sake!

Also copying Kate by grinning.

Becles · 09/03/2020 10:17

It's almost a parody when you see it written down like that. I was also trying to be current and talk about the latest visit as otherwise people.will accuse of digging up the past.

Essentially, she's no better than she should be and how dare she think she has the right to walk away.

For a women's site it's worryingly reminiscent of the domestic abuse scenario. You're nothing without me etc. etc.

Sunshineand · 09/03/2020 11:04

Absolutely, Becles

TheMustressMhor · 09/03/2020 11:04

When she said she didn't really know of Prince Harry she was LYING

Obviously she wasn't lying about this.

Sunshineand · 09/03/2020 11:07

I don't know if you're agreeing with my post or disagreeing, TheMustressMhor
I was just adding to the conflicting things said about Meghan- and each conflicting thing is always bad. So in other words, she couldn't win.
