For those that are interested - I know I am.

Does anyone know when the appeal judgement will be made.

@callmeadoctor

Does anyone think that Charles or william will go over to USA any time soon to meet the new grand daughter/ niece?
William and Kate are going to the US on an official visit next year and ever if they’ve had a falling out I’d guess they’ll see H&M while there.

Well no not necessarily. It depends where in the US the Cambridges are going. New York to LA is pretty much as far again as here to New York. I can’t see either couple making a near 3000 mile trip just to see each other, especially the Cambridges who are on an official state visit 🤷‍♀️

9 emails in 4 months cannot be considered a lot. MM must get hundreds of emails a day.

She gave information to Jason for background on his capacity as comms. Technically MM has co-operated with anyone who has asked for information to her office. So if Lady C did ask any questions, then MM has co-operated with her.

I can see how she would have been thinking, I never spoke to Scobie about the book, most certainly there is nothing about the letter either. The emails were deleted back at the office, so I'm guessing even if she sent one of her friends from Sussex Royal, they never would have found anything anyway.

rubicscubicle · 17/11/2021 08:12

Stop being disingenuous @MummyJ12, someone was asking about how they were received. I expected you to show this frosty reception everyone was talking about, like say negative talk from the vets.

MummyJ12 · 17/11/2021 08:23

Stop being goady and provocative @rubicscubicle. Nothing disingenuous about me. It was a relevant article considering US coverage and opinion. I haven’t posted any criticism on this thread so as I have already posted, your defensiveness is unnecessary.

CauliflowerCheese30 · 17/11/2021 08:24

You can paint it any you way you like rubicsubicle, she lied and had to apologise.

smilesy · 17/11/2021 08:33

Well you’re on your own thinking that she never contacted Scobie and no there is nothing about the letters in the emails I linked to (because we were talking specifically about the emails regarding FF) but there are a whole series of texts about the letter.

amusedtodeath1 · 17/11/2021 08:33

Yup, she lied. There's no excusing it.

PickupaPenguin8 · 17/11/2021 08:40

@Roussette

That's the second time this evening *twinkly" I've been told I've been made a fool of or similar, and for the second time I'll say I don't feel that, sorry.
I do not understand your stance on Meghan and Harry Rousette when you admit you’ve never seen the OW interview even! Have you read FF? You can’t in all honesty make a judgement without having done so.
Aspiringmatriarch · 17/11/2021 08:49

The thing with Finding Freedom and all these details in it that supposedly could only have come directly from Harry and Meghan or close friends, is that they've never endorsed the book in any way. So all those private moments and peeing in bushes etc could be completely fabricated, surely?

PickupaPenguin8 · 17/11/2021 08:51

They would have sued immediately if they were.

Aspiringmatriarch · 17/11/2021 08:53

I don't see why they would sue.

Roussette · 17/11/2021 09:02

@PickupaPenguin8

I read the script in full. More than once. I've already said that. You can glean more from the written word. And there was no escaping it on news etc, so I saw bits.
But I know exactly what was said

rubicscubicle · 17/11/2021 09:12

As for Knauf himself, back beginning of 2019, he sent his bullying accusations letter to The Times. These were official documents with work related subject. Since he was never fired on the spot, we can only assume he has been sent by William (his boss) to send these communications to MM.

Quite underhanded, because he would have known MM's own emails have been deleted.

The taking down of his brother's wife reminded me of the time a reporter on GMB said the palace did something to H&M that they find unforgivable, and we will later see. He could not discuss for legal reasons.

From 5 minutes.

For the hundredth time, they never sued Lady C with all her lies.

You don’t know any of that that, actually, rubicscubicle.

Firsly, all we know is that a copy of the formal complaint emailed by Jason Knauf to the head of HR was provided to the Times. That does not mean it was Jason Knauf who provided it. You can see on the face of the email it was sent to more than one recipient, and it’s very likely a copy would likely have been provided to the people on whose behalf he complained. So there are a number of people who could have given it to the Times.

Of course, if you do have proof that it was Jason Knauf, and no-one else, who provided it to the Times, please do let us know.

Secondly, the people who worked with the Times will be considered whistleblowers, and thus are legally protected from being fired, or suffering any reprisals for their actions. So no, you can’t assume what you have at all.

That discussion was before the Oprah interview, so the most likely explanation is that it was one of the complaints made to Oprah, surely? I think the racism came as a surprise to everyone, so perhaps letting them know that Prince Charles intended to change the Letters Patent to mean Archie wouldn’t be a Prince? Not correcting the record about who made who cry over the flower girls dresses? Pick your poison… Grin

Viviennemary · 17/11/2021 09:43

I wonder if Archie and Lilibet will be titled Prince and Princess. I expect even when others like Louise Windsor can have the title officially it will be discussed with the palace and Queen first. No sign of Louise taking the title yet. And she was 18 earlier in the month. Will They just start calling Archie Prince as soon as Charles becomes King or will they wait for the nod from somebody.

rubicscubicle · 17/11/2021 09:44

They are not whistle blowers, because they are not showing any evidence for anything. Just leaking an allegation that has not even been proven.

Who else provided it, since it was from Knauf. And who got fired for leaking. No one. Documents don't just fly out of the palace on their own.

PickupaPenguin8 · 17/11/2021 09:44

@Aspiringmatriarch

I don't see why they would sue.
Really? Reports of specific incidents and conversations, extremely hurtful insinuations against Harry’s family all made you and you don’t think they would sue? Anyone would be furious if someone had made up a whole load of lies in a book about them and passed it off as truthful . Lady Cs book was more ‘someone told me this’ not specifics of peeing in bushes and private conversations.

What would be the point? No one cares in America.
rubicscubicle · 17/11/2021 09:46

All those things, and maybe the leaking of stories too.

Meghan Markle ANL court appeal. Thread 2.
PickupaPenguin8 · 17/11/2021 09:47

I also can’t see why any of the family would want to visit H and M. Not after the way they have been criticised so publicly.

Zuluqueen · 17/11/2021 10:00

Goes both ways. Think the only people who seem to speculate about the visits are some UK press & HaM critics. In time maybe everyone will be ready to see each other, but not now.

Zuluqueen · 17/11/2021 10:02

I would also be surprised if the next royal tour is in America. I think there are more worthy destinations in the Commonwealth that would benefit from a visit from their future head of state .
