A positive thread on Harry and Meghan (aka Thread 5)

[Mummy195]

A continuation for those who would like to look at the positive side of Harry and Meghan.

I meant HeadFit not Heads Together.

KP issued a statement in 2016 in which the DoC fully supported Harry.

@samcro - W&K aren't complaining about their workload - they released a very strong statement rebutting the claims in the tatler article.

I think it is good William speaks about mental health issues - lordy, he saw enough of the impact they have on children himself growing up with Diana as a mother.

they released a very strong statement rebutting the claims in the tatler article
That doesn't make the claims false (although I don't believe the quote in the article).

True although there was an article in the times today which demonstrated their workload hadn't increased. So would be odd to be cross about something that hadn't happened.

Not like Kate is suddenly patron of the National Theatre is it?

H&M are both still working with their chosen charities aren't they?

It was just a nasty snide article that was pretty awful about Kate and her family and of course the usual digs at Meghan. Amazing how Harry & William escape with so little negative commentary really, its all the evil women these men marry

2016. Before H&M got married? Before MM's name was dragged through the mud?

And Tatler also released a strong statement that they knew and it's all true. Bearing in mind that the editor is KM's friend.

As for W speaking about mental health, guess it's a matter of a good message, but a wrong messenger.

@Samcro

I think they mean publicly.

Exactly, even when MPs wrote an open, public letter to support MM, W&K said absolutely nothing.

So Omid Scobie is somehow involved in the Tatler article - or am I missing something?

The comments on Scobie's twitter link are horrendous. They all seem to have inside knowledge about W & K that mere mortals don't know about. What sad, sad people.
That are even dragging H & M into it when it was nothing to do with them. I'm completely baffled at the comments.

Hi *@Mummy195* I notice there are other people frothing about the same thing as you on Twitter (they have dedicated stan accounts for Meghan). Apparently Prince William is 'hypocrite' for discussing mental health with a focus on men and football because he allegedly allowed Harry Meghan to be 'mercilessly bullied'.

In your opinion, what exactly should William and Catherine have said? What difference do you believe this would've made? It's likely the couple barely know Meghan personally, why is she their responsibility?

K&W are there as inside information who know what is true and false and they have said nothing. So being complicit by their non comment. A big sticking point was the 20m security bill, the non-fired staff members that were moved around, among other things.

Now, W is saying something along the lines of support for new fathers. H had to stand on his own and was demonised for taking a private jet when he talked about climate change ( W&K also preached climate change before taking a plush private jet just this year, and the papers said nothing about it). W would have known that around the time H took that flight the sons of the UK KKK (National Action or something like that) had just been sentenced to jail a few weeks earlier. MM had also had anthrax threats. Also since H&M married, there were reports of more ppl of interest to the police regarding threats to RF, mostly about H&M and PA. H said he was worried about security as his excuse for taking the private jet. So as a new father, why did W see no reason to publicly support him, and instead, does a publicity stunt make H look bad.

Just as W shut down the 'he bullies H' rumours by putting out a statement. He and K could have put out a statement for the press to stop printing lies about H&M. This would have shown him to have a backspine to support his brother. W has been painted in a positive light after all, so what he says would have been listened to as he is an insider who would know best what is really going on in the RF.

He cannot now come out saying all this support ppl, when he could not even do it himself.

I screenshot the statement a few pages back on this thread. Where the editor says he stands by what the reporter and her sources say.

@ajandjjmum

So Omid Scobie is somehow involved in the Tatler article - or am I missing something?

Omid Scobie has nothing to do with the Tatler report, but he is a RR and has every right to report on the going ons just like Chris Ship, Richard Palmer, Rebeca English etc.

Except, in this case, that he will present both sides instead of just one like the rest.

My guess is that someone in the Palace, schemed over the article, thought it was the usual bash MM, to big up KM piece and just approved it. When it came out, everyone ridiculed KM. It's just the arrogance of knowing that KM is always praised, so the expectation was that ppl would say yes, that wicked MM has crossed KM as usual.

Except when it came out that KM cried over tights, and had exhausted herself on zoom calls, no one had time for it.

Now that MM is threatening legal action, how tone deaf during a pandemic. Doesn't she know she must keep her head down, get on with it. Never complain, never explain. What a thin skin these two moochers have.
Oh wait, it's not MM? Oh, it's lovely K&W, well that's ok then. Better put a stop to lies right now.

The palace knew, it's right there on the statement.

Tatler says it's true, that is in the statement that the editor supports the reporter and the sources.

Whatever makes you feel better, knock yourself out.

Chances are that Tatler has receipts, that is why they are not issuing an apology that what they wrote is false. Nor are they redacting any statements. Because that is all they have to do.

Most likely, there will be no going to court on this. This will be just a threat from W like he did with the Rose story. Telling media to climb down. It will all depend on how much the sources are willing to cross the firm (that will all depend on what generational aristo family they come from).

Unlike in the case of MM, where the media know she has no connections in the UK, the press could dare stand their case because they will either throw Thomas M or the reporter under the bus. If they did make a stand or H&M were the ones who did not want to back down.

Just another self serving statement from W&K.

The Palace knew that Tatler were putting a photo of Kate on their front cover.

The Palace did not know what was being written.

Not a case of anyone knocking themselves out , just interpreting the basic facts correctly.

I cannot be bothered with arguing the same point over and over here.

W released a statement that he was not bullying H, among other statements and rebukes he has released in the past. He knows he has gained on the H&M smear and also contributed to it, with his flight stunt. He cannot preach support for new fathers, while he not only fails with his brother, but does the exact opposite. That is hypocritical.

How on earth could you not know about the £20m security bill that H&M were supposedly siphoning from the taxpayers. You must have been hiding under a rock for the last few months.

Not only did PC and D, never, ever put out any statements, but they never staged any flights either. PC flies private jet and has been environment preaching since the early 70s.

You are clearly coming on here to try and discredit H&M supporters. I saw the tweets slamming W on a lot of RRs tweets including Victoria Arbiter, CS, etc. and they come from the general public tweeters not only from 'dedicated stan accounts for Meghan'.

So they thought there was a nice picture of Cathering the Great on the cover, that is it? Yes right.

Who are you actually talking to Mummy?
