For those that are interested - I know I am.

Does anyone know when the appeal judgement will be made.

Puzzled I think Fawcett's middle name is yo-yo, backwards and forwards he is.
He properly went a long time ago, then came back, and now gone again.
I'd buy the book!

Self funded? They don't have the funds to live the livestyle that they are. Harry will have burned through his inheritance at a rate of knots living in a $14 million house, complete with staff and security. This is the woman who wears £75k dresses for engagement photos, has a £32 million wedding, and spent £2 million renovating a cottage that they barely lived in. Their PR alone must be in the tune of millions of dollars by now. He was supposedly left £10 million by Diana.

Charles should man up and stop funding Harry. These two are utterly toxic. And who's paying the legal bill for her case against ANL?

Unless we Charles has paid him enough to make his departure worthwhile, you may well get the chance Wink

@Roussette

Yeah but controlling their privacy, just means they want people to only talk about the things they want talking about

Don;t you think the RF is like that? Do they want headlines about Andrew? Nope
Do they want coverage about the Queen's consent on changing laws that don't suit? Nope
Does PC want articles about the 16,000 miles he travelled on private jets? Nope
H&M arent unique in wanting people to only talk about what they want talked about!

OMG there is no taking to you.

BUT- the other members of the RF don't then kick up a fuss about it, claim they are being attacked and that it is all misinformation. Claim they are victims and everyone is being mean to them. Then leave the county and stand down because they can't cope with it. Whilst simultaneously courting it for their own benefit.

That's the difference. They know and accept their are two sides to the coin and whilst getting press attention they do want comes press attention they don't want. They understand this and accept it. They realise they can't control everything that is written about them and don't try to. That's the difference.

Roussette · 15/11/2021 22:30

Don't you think how they handle their finances are up to them?

I know a couple who live totally beyond their means (not saying that H&M do) but would I tell them or worry about it? No, it's nothing to do with me.

Charles should man up and stop funding Harry. These two are utterly toxic. And who's paying the legal bill for her case against ANL?

Can you link to where Charles funds Harry? I get asked for proof and links all the blimin' time!
They'll be paying their own legal fees I'm sure.

Sally if you want posts removed you can report under Talk Guidelines.

When it suits certain posters keep banging on about the RF in the context of Harry & Meghan. When it doesn't suit, it's said to not be relevant.

???. There are no guidelines breached other than bleating repeatedly “but the RF do far worse” every time you are struggling to justify what the gruesome twosome have done
Peaseblossum22 · 15/11/2021 22:31

Yes, and she won it

No she didn’t , she won the first battle. Everyone who who undertakes litigation knows that it’s about wining the war not just the first battle. That said I expect she will win the copyright case at least. But will it be worth it ,it could turn out to be a Pyrrhic victory, in the end no one will really remember the verdict they will just remember the dirty washing that was so publicly aired .

Zuluqueen · 15/11/2021 22:34

I think they will be fine financially. Before Meghan met Harry she was doing well for herself. It doesn’t seem like she was broke and I have never understood why some people think she is reckless with money or why she is deemed to be a gold digger. She has worked for her money before and will do so again . Meghan is not the only woman who married in & wears expensive clothes. The great thing for the British public who were very concerned about paying for her clothing, house, security etc etc is she is gone now and not UK taxpayer burden.

@HeddaGarbled

For a long time, this and the previous thread were interesting, with some really informative and balanced discussion. Now it’s just the usual suspects arguing with each other. Pity.
This is so true. I’m so not interested in the whataboutery and constant specious claims about what all the various parties have done in the past or not done or should have done. Why we can’t just stick to a narrow discussion of the facts of the case as disclosed in court so do not understand . Instead we are treated to repeated diatribes about previous threads and misdemeanours of people who are not even on this thread and long lists supposed slights. It’s very tiresome.
Skiptheheartsandflowers · 15/11/2021 22:41

Are their decisions theirs to make? Yes. Are people free to comment on them and give opinions? Yes.

I think Harry, who has zero experience of managing his own money or living within a budget, is more likely to be the problematic spender. Though the cost of their legal bills does intrigue me. Schillings can't be cheap and they must have racked up so many hours.

Somebody on another forum put this picture up, I do beleive its one of meghans nicest outfits:

amusedtodeath1 · 15/11/2021 22:44

Very tiresome indeed. Past threads and horrible comments swiftly removed years ago are regurgitated ad infinitum to make the nefarious point that some people are racist and that's why everyone is ganging up on poor MM.

amusedtodeath1 · 15/11/2021 22:46

Yes she looks lovely in that dress.

PickupaPenguin8 · 15/11/2021 22:46

I do wonder how fast Harry is getting through his inheritance. He was supposed to be a bit of a tight wad before he met Meghan.
All the designer dresses, private jets, maintenance of mansion, staff and legal fees
must be eye wateringly expensive.
I know they have this huge Netflix deal, that is not going to cover it all.

She looks great in that. It actually fits properly and flatters her.

Roussette · 15/11/2021 22:48

call me. That is exactly the sort of style that I think suits her.

PickupaPenguin8 · 15/11/2021 22:49

@RubyTuesday70
Sorry, just read your post which said the same thing!

LondonWolf · 15/11/2021 22:54

@Roussette

You said 'mindlessly defensive supporters'.

I'm not mindless, thanks. Nor are you, I'm sure.

We just have different viewpoints. It's no good getting so frustrated when not everyone agrees with you. That's the nature of a forum, we have opinions and can express them, even when they're differing.

Stop making things up. I have given no sign of being frustrated. Your assertions of “attacks” and “frustration” and similar over the thread, are manipulative and I think designed to avoid actually having to ever actually look with clear eyes at the behaviour of the DOS. You’re clearly extremely invested in your self appointed defensive role and I think there is my answer. You cannot analyse her behaviour critically as you have sunk too much into defending her.

You are right. Apologies.

Have they actually produced anything for Netflix yet? They'd have a lot of costs to come out of that money - presumably they'd not do the actual producing themselves, as neither of them have experience. They'd commission a programme/series and hire people to produce it for them.
derxa · 15/11/2021 22:59

What would they have to do before her mindlessly defensive supporters will admit she has feet of clay. I'd forgotten that brilliant phrase. It applies to every human being. There's a Scottish phrase. We're all Jock Tamson's bairns. Every human has the same value. The supporters of Meghan don't subscribe to this view. I don't get it. She's nothing special in the grand scheme of things. In fact she does a great deal of harm.

amusedtodeath1 · 15/11/2021 23:04

The National Anthem? @CauliflowerCheese30, at an American Awards Ceremony? Why would Harry ask for that? Seems odd?

BananaPB · 15/11/2021 23:10

Apparently they asked for both verses of God Save The Queen

Skiptheheartsandflowers · 15/11/2021 23:12

@MrsFin Well, they've appointed a lot of production and content creation staff. I guess we're now into the less exciting (from the outside) phase of the content actually being planned and produced. It will take a while. Though I do keep wondering when the next podcast will come along. It's almost a year since they did the holiday special that was supposed to be the prelude to a full series!

@Rousette I’m not being deliberately arsey but you have said the following on more than one occasion:

They aren't working royals. And they are self funded. And they don't live in this country.

But what seems to occur on a very regular basis (to the point of being tedious) is that any criticism of the couples behaviour is always countered with a cry of ‘but but but …..the Queen’ or ‘but but but …. the royal family’ or but but but Prince Andrew. I don’t really give two hoots about whether the Queen may have told a lie 30 years ago or that she has more than one birthday and there is a separate thread to discuss the Prince Andrew debacle.

What we are discussing is an ex working royal and his actress wife who have chosen to live a life of public celebrity and whose behaviour to date has been questionable.

I see them now more like a Kim & Kanye West or a JLo & Ben Affleck. MM & PH chose celebrity over royalty and should expect to be discussed as such. What their families did or didn’t do in the past is a bit of a side issue.
