Positive thread on Meghan again

[Mummy194]

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.

@Aspiringmatriarch

Please only leave if that's what you want. Don't feel driven off because that is so unfair. You have written some really valuable and interesting posts on here

Yes I know @Roussette but it's a no brainer that it would matter to the Archbishop of Canterbury.

I know I keep banging on about it - I am honestly not a Meghan hater, I just can't get past that lie.

I thought the bananas thing was a nice idea too. Meghan was great for the RF and it's all such a shame.

@CokeDrinker

You mean when the 'newbie' is not white, Coronateachingagain.

My comment nothing to do with the family, more to do with the country. Slip of the tongue at best, as @Lucaslucas1612 said.

I totally get the language barrier and how blunt Americans can be in comparison to us. I have relatives in the US and have visited and spent time there over the last 10 years. That probably is a issue on both sides and a lack of understanding of MM.

It was an unfortunate choice of words that's for sure, but by doing an interview like that you must know each word will be analysed, you must know that many Britains will be watching. You want to be believed and come across a certain way after all you are talking about the RF. surely you would pick your words very carefully, but I guess this may have been lost in the desire to appear natural.

You need to know your audience and so think carefully about how the things you say can be misconstrued. That's the same in real life in all public situations. If it wasn't an official marriage but a private exchange then say that, no problem. But it did seem like she really wanted to make it look like it was. I am surprised Harry or someone on the team didn't pick up on that during the edit and think how that may have irritated people. When tensions are high anyway a careful choice of words is needed.

Plus, they analysed every word the RF said about MM and Archie in the interview, purposely drawing negative conclusions when we don't know the context or how it was said. Maybe that too was a language barrier? Why are their words allowed to be analysed by H and M and Oprah but MM words are not?

I get what you're saying totaly Balloon

@JaniieJones

'He asked if she was ok. Sometimes if you're feeling low, a question like that can catch you off guard.'

Oh purleeease. Off guard my arse. It was all clearly orchestrated and rehearsed.

exactly

@Marmaladeagain

Seeing as this "positive" thread is rather scatter gun - I don't feel too bad about adding that it absolutely wasn't a "private" ceremony that took place. Obtuse, disingenuous whatever - but to continue banging on that they meant something other than exactly how it was interpreted is not credible and wasn't what was implied.

It may be in Denmark marriages are a little bit flexible?! however, this is a UK site and it absolutely does matter in the UK - hence the public reaction of turning against them after feeling the implication of having been made fools of for celebrating the day of the wedding with them (those that supported their stance of half-in/half-out etc).

Miss the point as much as you like, but no-one believes much H&M say based on this faux fact "nobody knows that". It made fools of the people that supported and waved flags (not me, not ever liked Harry - don't "hate" him, yawn...).

As for Meghan I don't think she had a clue what she was letting herself in for and may have thought Harry was the catch she hoped for. No-one, absolutely no-one was desperate to marry Harry - hence his unhappiness - not because of being in the RF - his perma negative attitude, is very wearing to be around I've often heard said. I feel sorry for Meghan if anything.

Meghan wouldn't have had a clue about the hierarchy in the RF and listened to Harry saying how hard done by he is..... hence where we are now. I don't think M is to blame for the mess, always seen it as Harry and he was determined to go out with a bang as he felt the public were behind him, he's popular, Diana's true son etc. He was wrong. It's the service that's respected, not the personalities in the end. Meghan is as much a victim of Harry's ego as the RF are.

I don't much like the Californian style of navel gazing in anyone - so I'm not predisposed to feel fond of someone like Meghan, but that's not the issue for me. Harry is the one that has misdirected and had his public meltdowns and fed lies about how hard done by he is and now by extension - how hard done by "they" are.

I'm sure in time more will come out about Harry having ideas about what was possible, which led Meghan to feel they could change the world etc. Harry was not willing to accept a diminishing role in the RF.

Great post.

Happy vow exchange day anniversary 💕

Wedding date wasn't a lie, it was true for them, they held a private commitment ceremony prior to the big day. As do many people in Europe, America and other countries. It just isn't common in the UK, thus UK commenters could not get their heads around it. Just a misunderstanding by British detractors. Certainly no lie. It has since been explained on here over and over and over and over and over in many threads that it isn't common in the UK, but it IS common in Meghan's culture.

"True for them" is an absolutely ridiculous statement. In any case, even with the most favourable interpretation of what Meghan said, it was coupled with the "spectacle for the world" bit, which, in my opinion, shows complete disdain for anyone who watched it and those in the UK, taxpayers, who paid for it.

I don’t think Mm is overly invested in how the British public feels about her.

She gave it a chance, it didn’t suit and she left. She felt stifled and unloaded to OW. How does any of this really matter? It is just so bizarre, I’ve never met anyone in real life who nitpicks and dissects what someone else says.

Except that you did not have an expensive "spectacle" paid for by we the people and then went on TV pretending this was not the real thing. Nobody asked them to provide the spectacle as far as I am concerned and she was the first one up to pose in the limelight after all. They should have had a lower profile wedding and gone live their lives and disappear in the horizon. This business model of doing the rounds charging a fortune to talk about MH and how daddy left them dry and did not want to fund their lifestyle sounds really fishy.
so true and they wanted the same amount spent on their wedding as W&K.
also there was the tiaragate.

Harry basically believes that daddy or us should pay for the cost of his security for for the rest of his life, because this is a position that he "inherited". Talk about entitlement. I actually think it is a good thing he is out of the core RF.

@CokeDrinker

Great post re the language used by Meghan as an American.

I wonder does part of the intolerance stem from the fact that America speaks English so the expectation is that it is the same when the reality is so different.

No just America

I can remember my dad in school saying the word dash was to throw something and to mash it was to break it 😆 and then having to explain to the teacher how the same word had different meaning due to her Jamaican family background

Dd not dad

agree.

Quite a bit of talk on Twitter about M joining Scientology. Tbh I wouldn’t be surprised as both adamant of hacking away at family ties. They are both very isolated now.

Unsubstantiated gossip. Why repeat it? Don't get involved in the nastiness.

This thread took a turn last night with personal comments being made about a poster on this thread. Totally unnecessary but not surprising. It goes hand in hand with obsessively criticizing a couple you have never met and who can have little or no impact on your life.

It's not a good look.

Eh? This is a public forum. It’s not up to you ‘what I get involved in’.

Sorry if my comment didn’t align with your narrative. I do find it interesting. We will just have to wait and see.

That's strange, I'm on Twitter with lots of followers. H&M are trending so I clicked to look and not a word about Scientology that I can see. There are lots of posts like this though..

"I don't understand why you Brits won't just leave H&M alone. Why not focus on the royals who's lifestyle you're funding with your taxpayer dollars - your future kings and queens?"

and

"I am so happy Harry is healing from his past. Many people fail to realise breaking ancestral patterns is such powerful work and his children will benefit massively! It will set you free. I'm sad the world can't see this but keep going Harry."

Oh... and $3million has been raised for Archie's birthday.

As this is supposed to be a positive thread, I thought I would just bring it back on track after the influx of detractors trying to derail away from the thread title.

rousette for every one positive comment I can find you one negative that’s the power of SM

Shall I post my examples?

I do think it’s interesting that people are talking about it. People are also saying H isn’t living with M and she is actually in a hotel.

I really do hope it isn’t true though as once Scientology grips hold off you you can’t leave

Yes we will just have to wait and see. I'm not holding my breath though.

And I heard a rumour (aka made it up) that M has a pad in Mars and H is taking over Tesla...ooh the deviants!

Of course. I just clicked on #Harry and Meghan and quoted what came up for me. But there again, I follow people who are similar to me and don't loathe them whilst waving their union jack T towels!

(Really not saying that is you!) I was just trying in a vain hope to focus on the positive which was really what this thread was about. Those were the first two tweets that came up for me. I spent 5 minutes looking for Scientology, not a squeak.

Why would $3 million be raised for Archie's birthday?
