Lots of subjects were spoken about but I felt that Oprah could have asked for further information.

What questions do you think she should of asked.

My question is to Harry 'why didn't you get Meghan help with her MH if you are a loving husband'

Anyway, I am not Meghan so I can’t really speak for her. I am sure The royal wedding is as real for them as their private vow.

Just how people who renew their vow is just as real

My favourite Royal Wedding was Beatrice’s. Second hand dress, 30 people, no TV and a favourite photographer.

My DB had a big wedding in the middle of nowhere in Yorkhire. He’d hired a converted barn and buildings which held the venue and accommodation. We had to pay for 2 nights in this place, people travelled in from all over the world.

My DB’s speech consisted of him saying that they’d got married in a registry office the day before and it turned out the celebrant was a friend reading out eastern quotes. We were jeffing peed off and felt cheated that the wedding we’d been invited to, spent loads of money and time on, wasn’t actually a wedding.

That would annoy me too, Diptych

Off topic, but my fave wedding happened the week after another wedding I attended. The first wedding was HUGE. I was helping the chruch wardens at both weddings. The huge wedding had an extremely stressed and demanding bride who insisted on gold carpet being ;aid down the centre aisle just for the day and a mother of the bride who snapped her fingers at us and called us lazy and unhelpful (we had just gone to open up the church for them so the flowers could be sorted). The wedding the week after had a handful of people, a couple who had a son with learning needs and the couple treated all of us to champagne and cake afterwards. My favourite bit was when their son crept up to the vicar, tugged at his sleeve and asked 'Is this the part where we say Happy Birthday to mummy and daddy now?'

It was so simple and so beautiful and the couple were beaming.

I know it is off topic, but I just wanted to share. I liked William and Kate's wedding alot. Loved her dress and they looked beside themselves with joy as well. :)

I liked Zara and Mike Tindall’s wedding in Edinburgh. Full of cheery sports people and family looking a bit bleary the following day . Zara’s dress was lovely but very much her and I loved the fact that she had tee shirt tan lines , most of all they just looked thrilled by their day .

Second would be Edward and Sophie’s and for sheer elegance Lady Sarah Chattos .

Meghan just wanted to have the Diana levels of adoration and be famous.

This is all what this is about.

SoWhyNot · 22/03/2021 15:17

Meghan and Harry didn’t need over1,000 people to be married

No, they didn’t. They chose to have that many, including a number of celebrities that they weren’t friends with.

What they did need to be married was witnesses and it’s a ridiculous lie to be caught out in. If someone doesn’t have the intelligence to understand the difference between a dress rehearsal and a wedding then I don’t think they can be deemed to have mental capacity to get married at all. So on the basis that I’m sure Harry and Meghan are brighter than that, I’m still not understanding the need to lie especially when liars lose credibility and run the risk of people not believing them when they tell the truth.

I’ve heard of people saying they believe Meghan because it’s her truth but there is still a fundamental thing called facts that gets in the way of her truth at times. Can you imagine standing in front of a judge and jury saying the dna, witnesses and other evidence against you don’t matter because your truth is that you are innocent?! I’m sure they e can we agree that’s it’s a ridiculous concept.

I think you are right and possibly she could have done but she would have to needed to put in a lot of work which would have included plenty of dreary ribbon cutting on cold, wet days in fairly dull towns. She would have also needed to understand that the most important thing is the charity or event being supported rather than trying to become the focal point.

@Blueberries0112

Yes, just because Meghan Harry made a vow to each other and to God on UK land doesn’t mean they aren’t married. If they confessed to everyone they are married that day, they probably are. Maybe not legally Just like ancestors did and they weren’t allowed to be married according to the laws of the land at that time.

They wanted to cherished their wedding vows together privately.

What a load of old bollocks - do you live in a disney fairytale ?

Yes, totally with you there. Zara is a class act.
Blueberries0112 · 22/03/2021 16:46

Seriously, I have lots of ancestors who had commitment ceremony (mixed race who couldn’t marry white)

And before gay marriage was legal, some of my friends who are gay had commitment ceremony as well. Their marriage is not a lie

Diptyque · 22/03/2021 16:50

It might not be a lie but it certainly isn’t legal.

LolaSmiles · 22/03/2021 17:05

So if it was a secret private vow that was all deep and meaningful to them, why on earth mention it during their flouncy interview as a gotcha?
They weren't married before their wedding and suggesting otherwise was like a pair of teenagers thinking they were clever to get one past their parents.

Blueberries0112 · 22/03/2021 17:13

Look like USA is not the only one who does this www.hitched.co.uk/wedding-planning/ceremony-and-reception/commitment-ceremony/

Meghan just wanted to to show her love for Harry, nothing more or less, that’s why she brought it up

reprehensibleme · 22/03/2021 17:17

Blueberries, your arguments are spurious - they didn't need any kind of secret ceremony or commitment, they were perfectly at liberty to marry legally, in church or anywhere else, which of course they did. Meghan claiming that they were married 3 days before is talking nonsense, as she will be well aware. All she seems to be doing is giving a metaphorical finger to the RF, the British public 'Ha, ha - all the expensive ceremonial stuff was meaningless to meeeeeeeee'.

I'd be willing to put money on the fact that she wouldn't have been at all happy if the actual, legal bit hadn't happened, because then she wouldn't be covered if (when) it all goes pear shaped - she'd have no claim on Harry's fortune.

Blueberries0112 · 22/03/2021 17:21

Wow, She just wanted to express her love for Harry and I can’t believe you all saw was a middle finger .

ImpatiensI · 22/03/2021 17:27

How is pretending you were already married before the day 'expressing your love' for someone?

CallmeHendricks · 22/03/2021 17:29

@Blueberries0112, you are missing the point. What they did or did not do in the garden with the Archbishop three days before the wedding and what that meant to them as a couple, is irrelevant. What is odd, is the fact that Meghan tried to spin it to millions of people that they were already married when she walked down the aisle at Windsor. This is patently untrue.

LolaSmiles · 22/03/2021 17:32

Of course she did.
There's just no words to say "I love my husband" on international TV without saying 'well actually we got married in secret before our big day and nobody knows that'. Obviously, expressions of love for husbands need to be done in private secret personal cherished vows, choosing to reveal it in a flounce after you've got annoyed at your in laws was nothing more than a sincere declaration of love. Wink

KatherineParr · 22/03/2021 17:33

If Meghan says they were married three days before their actual wedding, it begs the question as to what else was inaccurate in that interview.

It's just another part of her narrative. She/ they manipulates things to suit the narrative - but sadly for them such things can be fact checked.

I just keep thinking of how everything is a bleeding drama with Meghan. She has a scorched earth approach to family and friends. She is the common denominator (and still bewailing with weeping eyes as to how she is a victim). I truly believe that she is unwell. I think Harry is too dim to get it, but when he does he is fucked. He has been isolated from everything.

Blueberries0112 · 22/03/2021 17:35

I don’t believe one bit that she was being mean about it. She was telling her story. I thought it was very sweet.

But a heterosexual couple who then went on to have a traditional marriage do not have any of these justifications of reasons. It’s sweet you still see the good in this, but it’s a lie. That’s all there is to it. They weren’t married and have no reason to pretend otherwise.
SoWhyNot · 22/03/2021 17:39

@Diptyque

It might not be a lie but it certainly isn’t legal.
“I got married three days before the world thought” except it’s not true = a lie.
SoWhyNot · 22/03/2021 17:41

@KatherineParr

If Meghan says they were married three days before their actual wedding, it begs the question as to what else was inaccurate in that interview.
And several other things have already been proven to be untrue. I’d say it more begs the question “was anything actually true?”
ImpatiensI · 22/03/2021 18:19

And several other things have already been proven to be untrue. I’d say it more begs the question “was anything actually true?”

I notice they used the phrase 'telling her truth' a lot before this interview. Previously this would have meant telling her side of the story but now it seems to mean 'pack of lies that I will stick to even when they're proved untrue'
