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.

Nice to read that Prince Harry and Prince William are back in touch.

Not nice to have the potted history of crap that’s said about them elsewhere regurgitated on a thread which I had thought was meant to be positive about them. Because no matter how much concern of condemnation it’s wrapped up in, it’s still a republication if some of the worst and signposting where to find more

What is this thread actually meant to be for? What is says in the title, or for widespread slagging off?

i do find it amusing that people always jump on these threads if the word "hate" is used.
the amount of nasty stuff that is written about them just on mn is hardly love.
you have to hate someone to be as nasty as some people are. we are (or should I say..I am) not talking about people who are just chatting about them and their role. we all like doing that, if we didn't this thread would not be here.
but the constant threads full of gleeful insults, calling her a bit part actress, a Narcissistic, saying how soon the marriage will end. the list goes on.
imo thats hate.

iVampire what are you talking about? No one has reposted any negativity on H&M here. The only time I have seen this on the thread is when someone is correcting something or pointing out a lie that was reported about them in the past and now new info turns out to contradict it. eg like the staff members who were asked to stay on for a hand over or different staff members shuffled around from personal household staff to SR managers, who are then reported as having resigned because of difficult MM, only to be spotted smiling happy a few months later working with H&M etc.

No regulars on this thread ever slag them off, you may have negative ppl coming on here to slag them off, but the regulars try to correct any misconceptions.

Samcro - Completely agree.

fleas I once tried to participate on the negative threads as you say open to everyone. But I was directly told to p**s off, much to the delight and encouragement of the regulars on that thread.

I immediately received some DMs from lurkers that I have never seen on these threads before telling me this was the level of arguments I would deal with and to get out of there asap. I heeded, I could see their point.

Samcro, Mamamia I fully agree.

It is odd the way some mistruths (Meghan had an area cleared at Wimbledon, Meghan ordered a £5000 copper bath) and downright speculation (claims that she changes her religion like some people change their underwear when there's no evidence she converted to Judaism for her ex) are repeated like they're facts.

You'd think those stories had been debunked enough times by now but I guess some people just like to look for the negative in everything. Either that or they're a bit thick but surely that couldn't be?

the story that always gets me is the one about the baby shower. didn't a friend throw that?

@Mummy195, @Samcro and others try not to respond to the negative posts and keep the positive stuff going. :)

Cerseiys and Samcro

I know.

These reports were denied in the court of law by MM in her case. The press has to prove that there is this bath, orangery etc. at Frogmore because they don't actually exists. It's also on the lawsuit that the friend who organised the baby shower is her friend (from college I think) of over 20 yrs and that the amount was exaggerated. All of that is in the lawsuit.
What surprises me is how many ppl in media forget all of this. I thought if you are going in front of the telly or on papers telling ppl something you would atleast try some truth or get your facts straight. For me these are the kind of things that were quite glaring in H&M reporting.

The flowers at the baby shower were donated to hospice.

We already talked about the Wimbledon and what actually took place right on previous incarnations of this thread before. Don't know if we should keep posting the same things over and over. It sure looks like it, because it does come up over again and again.

I have my own theory on the private jet story too.Though we do know that W&K are not being bitten with the same stick regarding their little shenanigans with private jets.

If you report something over and over again enough times, it starts to seem like facts. That is how propaganda works. How many times have Piers M and Camilla T gone on TV telling us that the' privacy observed couple want a quiet life far from the limelight'. Reminders of how H was keen to live in Africa (I believe this was when he had a gf from Africa ). As if being private means retirement or something - when they know quite well they said no press intrusion in the name of public interest. and no telling lies either. Trying to block them is what is sounds like. Looks like some ppl will not be happy till either H&M move to some shack in Africa or MM dies from the looks of things.

mamamia I have not read this story about W&H being in touch. What did I miss?

They said no press intrusion, so why move to LA? That drone incident yesterday/today wouldn't have happened at any royal residence in the UK. Whatever you think of them it was foolish to make an enemy of Associated Press and consequently, whether warranted or not they are now perceived as the pantomime villains of the royal family.

“Looks like some ppl will not be happy till either H&M move to some shack in Africa or MM dies from the looks of things.”
You certainly have a flair for the dramatic...

Mummy195 - According to Royal expert Katie Nicholl they have been in touch via phone as well as video calling. She said that because of Prince Charles having coronavirus they had been in touch. Obviously that would have been a worrying time for both of them. They have also done Birthday video calls.

I think people forget that not everything they do will be reported in the papers, so sounds like they have been in touch for a while.

The only ones that have a flair for dramatics are the ppl going on and on about how disgraceful the couple have been for moving overseas.

PerfPower a drone incident did happen in the UK while under the protection of the RF, H&M sued, won and donated the funds to charity. But they could no longer live in the house because of it, so they moved to Frogmore.

In the US the fines are incredibly heavy for such acts, which is why the publications took down the pics within an hour. As I said before, in LA no one can publish pics of baby Archie without first blaring his face. We all saw as many pics of Doria walking her dogs that even the tabloids got tired of publishing them. There are also lots of celebrities to bother with. The 'tabloids' in the US, last time I checked are actually weekly / monthly gossip mags that sit in that designated isle, unlike in the UK, where there is a slew of daily papers sitting side by side with broadsheets, infact there is a lot of ppl who think they are buying actual newspapers when they read the DM or S*n. These papers give a daily serving of negative news about H&M to an everyday person who may not actually read entertainment lies.

I don't think they have a problem with papers like the Enquirer etc. which sit somewhere at the back with I saw my husband f**king a pig kind of rubbish. Everyone knows those publications change their stories week in and out and ppl buy them to have a little laugh , pass the time and line the cat litter.

These kind of papers do not discuss the PM, NHS and other serious issues going on. Meanwhile the UK tabloids do discuss serious issues while writing lies about H&M and others. They just muddle everything up.

The AP was and continues to print lies about them, so they have nothing to lose there really. Now, all they did was signal to Reuters, CNN etc. that these publications do not own H&M news. Sure the tabloids can carry on reporting their tripe, but serious publications now know without a doubt that there are red flags there, and to take what the British tabloids say with a pinch of salt. Sure, the DM may break a story, but from now on everyone knows to double check it first or at least report knowing it was not the bible truth.

We try Jings but now and again you get tired of this BS.

They've made an enemy out of AP? How??

I don't think £5k on a bath was that bad. I did a house renovation a couple of years back and lordy nice stuff costs £££.

All the RF spend loads with little accountability.

I feel sorry for Meghan as think she could have done so much better than Harry.

I watched grand designs Australia the other day. The woman paid thousands for a bath made of special rare wood.
She wasn't even that rich.

mrscampbell
Its these little things reported as big things that gnaw away. The price of her renovations that never happened. The bloated price of the baby shower, the unknown, but speculated price of clothes etc. It all adds up.

Samcro

Someone even called her a rat up a sewer or some like. Yes it was gleefully received and no one bat an eyelid or commented. All on a mum support forum of all places. I could think of even worse things she has been welcomely called.

I meant the post at 13:48

Exactly. The RF can do what they want, spend want they want, fly where they want and no one says a peep. W&K are of course now sainted, because of all the hard work they have to do because Harry has gone and it is only H&M who will get picked up for every tiny little thing for ever and a day.

Now they've gone it is totally beyond me how posters can still pick holes in every move they make. They cannot do a thing. Meghan is ripped to shreds still on MN. It baffles me. With all that is going on in the world, to hold so much dislike for another human being, is just really sad AFAIC.

I could think of even worse things she has been welcomely called

And me. And yes, on MN.

“They have also done Birthday video calls.“
How do you know this? Have you witnessed it? No, you read it in the newspapers. So how come some things in the newspaper you take as a fact, but others are all inflated rumours?
