Positive thread on Meghan again

Now that at the other knock off MN chat has been shut down, we seem to have an influx of those posters on here with new or encouraged accounts.

For those who are not interested in trawling through negative post after the other. You can come on here for positive news about Meghan and Harry.

Why not, everyone else seems to be viewed positively, without 'cynicism'. I don't mind taking this at snail pace, we just post on the good things about H&M, they sure seem to be doing a lot of that lately, and it's really buried under the negativity on MN.

See, I'm not even sure that PC did "cut them off financially in the way that Harry implied. I think I have read that money (£2m a year?) had been channelled towards Harry from the Duchy of Cornwall, but as he was no longer a working royal, that could no longer happen.
But also, it is widely reported that Charles was supporting them both, above and beyond that source of revenue.
It sounded very churlish the way Harry spoke about it all.

[quote Skiptheheartsandflowers]@Samcro agree that the 'interview every 30 days threat' was wrong of him. But that was after Meghan cut him off. I'm interested in what he did before she cut him off to deserve it. Selling stories has been mentioned but I haven't seen any report saying he'd done that before the infamous letter case. If anyone can post links showing he did, that would be helpful.[/quote]
He cut her off !

You also would have seen his GMB and several other interviews before the letter, surely !

'When someone comes out about an abusive situation'

It wasn't abusive and that hyperbole does a disservice to those who have endured abuse so please stop.

They couldn't have their own way so are sticking the boot in.

CallmeHendricks · 15/05/2021 19:01

Can one of you avid H&M supporters please explain to me why it's so terrible for Thomas to give an interview about "his truth," but it's OK for H&M to tell theirs?

Samcro · 15/05/2021 19:02

I love the way TM is seen as a victim.
The way he sold his dd out says it all.
Why should M keep in touch with someone who has treated her badly.
Their kids will be fine. I am sure they will have plenty of people arround them who love them.

Roussette · 15/05/2021 19:03

I believe that it's on record by TM himself that he did and was selling stories to the Press.

Happy to be corrected on that.

I would google but I don't want to listen again to his interviews on GMB and elsewhere.

Mummy194 · 15/05/2021 19:03

Yes the rf wouldn't let them be part time senior royals from California. Tough! Get over it.

But the RF is fine to let other royals sell to the Kremlin and protect others wanted by the FBI for questioning on human sex trafficking.

Righto !

I think the answer is just because, or yeah but no but.

He said it at his interview. The director of the interview came to Jeremy Vine and said it. He gets paid 16K at the minimum.

He said , it's time for daddy to get paid.

I listened to one of his interviews.... I can recall him saying 'Now's the time to give to Daddy', it was a bit ewww.

Given you all agree they appeared to have a decent relationship, don't you think there will be reasons they are now NC?

Maybe she had no choice in the matter, given the £100,000 setting up pretend pap shots and all of that.

Like @Samcro I am continually amazed that sympathies are with him. It goes against the grain on MN given the Stately Homes thread and the continual advice to go NC.

This is why you have posters like @BranstonBeansAreSuperior getting offended.

When you downplay racism as a nothing. It means a lot to the victims on the other end.

That is why everyone complained about PM and his stance on MM and MH issues.

The Prince Andrew saga does need resolving but I don't think the Queen runs the fbi so you can't pin their inability to liaise with UK forces and actually question him on her.

The Sussexes wanted to be the Duke and Duchess of Sunshine bestowing their Royal fabulousness in the US and shining their Royal lights on chosen charities in the US and they weren't allowed. They can do all of that just without the Royal tag so they are, as I said, sticking the boot in.

No. We're all posting why

CallmeHendricks · 15/05/2021 19:11

Samcro: "The way he sold his dd out says it all."
"Why should M keep in touch with someone who has treated her badly."

You could say exactly the same about the way H has "sold out" his father, brother, grandparents and wider family. Why should they keep in touch (or take his calls) when they've been treated so badly.

CallmeHendricks · 15/05/2021 19:13

"I can recall him saying 'Now's the time to give to Daddy', it was a bit ewww."

Well, I do agree with you there. That was horrid to listen to.

SueSaid · 15/05/2021 19:19

'No. We're all posting why'

Because Markle Senior said ' time for daddy to get paid'?

Very unsavoury indeed but the terminology does not matter! it is the gossiping about private family relationships without their consent that is the issue and if they didn't like her df doing it they should not be lowering themselves to the same grubby level. Unless they're hypocritical and I think we all know the answer to that..

We have already addressed this. But I will try one more time.
  1. One of H&M txt told TM don't worry, we can work something out. It was all, let's pretend nothing happened here. H&M were practically grovelling with him to stop talking to the tabloids.
  1. H&M asked if they could be like the cousins - B&E, PMoK etc. they were told no, you have to F off.

I believe in both cases H&M were trying to find solutions to for a midway, both put their fingers up to H&M. So H&M realised both were not willing to change.

MM never said anything about TM, except to produce the txt in court. She then answered, and corrected the lies in the press, about TM.

H corrected the lies that PC was giving him money, when he infect was not.

As I said before, it's not in our best interest to know about TM's relationship as no crime, corruption, etc. was involved. Just a disagreement between father and daughter. Just as it would not affect us either way if uncle gezzer, the duke of slough, pisses in a street corner and parties hard. Why would anyone report on this.

Oh please! Number 1 doesn't justify their subsequent actions. If they can talk to Oprah, why can't he talk to Piers?
And Number 2 is just ridiculous. You think they were told to fuck off?!
You've just debased your whole argument.

Samcro · 15/05/2021 19:27

I don't think mummy really means they were told to fuck off.

derxa · 15/05/2021 19:30

Meanwhile William is presenting the FA cup at Wembley after a brilliant final. A great sight with fans back in the stadium. The Royal family need to keep on keeping on and ignore the circus. Too much emotional energy has been expended on Meghan and Harry.

Yes, I get that. But even without the F word. They wanted to have their cake and eat it, and it wasn't to be. They were told it couldn't happen, so they flounced and decided to torch the entire institution on the way out.

Mummy194 · 15/05/2021 19:30

The RF is not 'private' issues. They are an institution we pay tax for who head the state and cw. Said this enough times.

There is no 'gossip' in racism and MH issues. Would you rather H&M have gone to some authority to report these, because if we are to tbh, these issues contravene human rights.

Because if we are honest, in any other situation, the people that did this would have to answer.

Imagine, if this situation were accusations against a school, government, council, charity, etc. We would not be saying, oh keep quiet, this is a matter to be dealt with internally!

Could it be that they've ALL made mistakes????????? And therefore maybe should shut their gobs and work it out (or not) privately like most families with decorum do? Ffs. This thread is the most repetitive Pollyanna BS I've read in some time. Go and read Julia Samuel in today's Times and her take on over sharing trauma. Basically talking directly to Harry and other people who are building a brand on pain... it's such a bang on piece. As Princess Di's best mate it speaks VOLUMES.

CallmeHendricks · 15/05/2021 19:32

And what about all the allegations of bullying by Meghan? Don't those issues also contravene human rights and need "dealing with" also?
