can fuck right off. Why is it when overpopulation is talked about the implication is always that there's too many black or brown people? Not to mention the hypocrisy of him having 3 kids himself. It makes me sick.

@Roussette

With the press and cameras focussing on them big time, would they honestly just do a brief nod and a hello? Nah. They are royal, they know what to do.
What like Westminster Mar 2020? They all hardly managed a nod and hello then did they.

Anyway, as I say so lovely W&K seem so relaxed and happy around their extended family.

julieca · 09/12/2021 13:18

Yes which showed just how frosty things were when they couldnt even pretend. I am not saying relations are bad between them. But they could easily be a bit distant and still look like this.
But then lots of people seem to think they know all about the RF private lives based on some photos. So it shouldn't really surprise me that some people declare they are a close loving family on the basis of this.

julieca · 09/12/2021 13:24

I mean I have seen the newspapers talk about how this photo shows how in love Kate and William are. They may be, they may not. But you cant tell based on this. Its just the kind of rubbish the press write.

'Yes which showed just how frosty things were when they couldnt even pretend'

Well yes, that is exactly my point when things are frosty it is indeed hard to pretend..

Roussette · 09/12/2021 13:30

^^ This.

Exactly. I have one or two of my extended family who I'm not a great fan of... no one would know when we get together for funerals, weddings etc... cos I'm a well brung up girl Grin.. and polite, and treat them with courtesy.

If I can do that, I'm sure the RF can.

So trying to spin it that they are bosom pals... we do not know.

SueSaid · 09/12/2021 13:42

Rousette with respect please don't speak to me like that you get very indignant when others talk to you snippily. I'm not 'spinning' anything. Imo seeing how warmly W&K greeted tbeir extended family was lovely, they all appear naturally relaxed with each their.

The concert looked lovely. All good, no?

Roussette · 09/12/2021 14:05

Where have I been snippy? I just said it's ridiculous to spin them as bosom pals when We. Don't. Know. I even did a grinning face in my comment, no idea why you've taken offence.

I am entitled to post an opinion you know... even if you don't like my opinion!

Yes, they seem warm and relaxed. So do I with my family... and there are a couple I'm not that keen on. You'd never know

julieca · 09/12/2021 14:21

@JaniieJones if you hate the sight of one another, pretending in public is hard. If you just, oh its so and so again, but you're a bit meh about them, it is easy to appear warm and friendly.
Now I am not saying they are or they arent warm and friendly. I am saying it is impossible to judge from the brief public views we see of different RF members interacting.
I think people read far too much into photos and footage of people that are total strangers to us.

Well quite, but we either judge as we did with the strained expressions in 2020 and also judge by how warm and relaxed they looked with each other on Wed night, or we say we can't judge at all. You said pretending in public is easy as you do it with your brother either whom you can't stand?

It would seem contrary to judge by their negative expressions but not their positive ones.

Anywayyy, didn't the concert look nice, I'll be watching it.

Roussette · 09/12/2021 16:03

I absolutely loved Kate's coat. It was stunning.

I would look like an oversized badly wrapped christmas present in it

PreparationPreparationPrep · 09/12/2021 17:50

Where is the concert is there a link? I assume it was last night - I was listening to the Shelter Christmas Carols and that was lovely too. I love Christmas carols - as you would expect no sign of any glittery or fancy dresses though but some really depressing stories of what people have to go through in life.

Viviennemary · 09/12/2021 18:06

I'm not mad on the concept of royalty but as royals go Kate and William deliver the goods

Roussette · 09/12/2021 18:07

I think it's on Christmas Eve. I just saw a clip of the Royals arriving on Twitter.

Viviennemary · 09/12/2021 20:06

I thought the concert was last night. Or is there another one on Christmas eve.

smilesy · 09/12/2021 20:28

The concert was last night but is being shown on ITV on Christmas Eve.

Viviennemary · 09/12/2021 20:33

Thanks smilesy.

Roussette · 09/12/2021 20:40

Yes. I meant it was due to be broadcast on Christmas eve

PreparationPreparationPrep · 09/12/2021 20:45

Thank you!
smilesy · 09/12/2021 21:00

No problem 😀

BadgerB · 10/12/2021 10:24

I have a feeling that much of the hatred now landing on William (and sometimes his wife) is instigated by the Sussex supporters?

No way are the Cambridges as poisonous as the Sussexes. Unless, of course, the idea is to get rid of the Royal Family. If that's the case the Sussexes win hands down.

Roussette · 10/12/2021 10:33

What hatred? Where?

I don't consider either couple as being poisonous, how horrible.

julieca · 10/12/2021 10:45

There is no hatred. Just not unadultered adoration.

BadgerB · 10/12/2021 14:01

No hatred? Here's a selection from this thread -

"Hes a dick. And thick"
"Can’t stand this pompous, sanctimonious bloke. Knows everything about nothing."
"Cheeky cunt."
"Just a hypocritical, dull, pompous prick."

is that enough? And that's just from the first 2 pages
"PW is thick, blinkered, racist, ignorant, greedy and hypocritical, like his fans, his family and the people who give him airtime. Enough listening to these cretins."

Roussette · 10/12/2021 14:11

Good job I didn't post anything like that then!

BadgerB · 10/12/2021 14:17

No, Roussette. Your posts are always balanced and fair
