Page 18 | Public members rude to meghan

I've seen a clip on Instagram where a group of women completely blanked MM when she spoke to them. It was awful to watch. I feel so sorry for her, she didn't deserve that at all. I saw another clip where someone had asked her for a hug, she obliged and when they hugged she really held the member of public and closed her eyes, it looked as if she really needed that hug . No wonder she ran away from the UK

The difference is that Kate wouldn't have kept the flowers. It's that simple.

Show quote history

Ah, of course saintly Kate for not keeping the flowers, and greedy Meghan for keeping them.

Serenster · 12/09/2022 19:32

Have another look at Meghan's body language when she declines the offer to take the flowers. She was really nice about it.

I did look at it (I saw the whole event live, including the interactions before and after it), and am perfectly able to form my own opinions about people’s behaviour ,thanks.

As Meghan turned around to speak to him, in my opinion she looked a bit irritated to have been approached, which she then covered with her words and gestures. I said she looked “a little annoyed”, by the way - that’s hardly a big deal, surely!

No human could have taken and held on to the flowers they were given and laid them down personally without being inefficient in terms of the walkabout. You’d either be running backwards and forwards with armfuls of flowers and tributes, or just be completely obscured because you’re trying to meet people but can’t put anything down til the end.

these aides aren’t nuts. They know she hasn’t done a walkabout after the death of a Queen before so they were trying to be helpful. She didnt want to accept their help, but they weren’t trying to fuck up her time.

Or more likely because she received a second big bunch of flowers and could not carry them all.

No there is footage. She is arguing with the second aide and not wanting to hand them over and that is when Harry intervenes.

Yes, there is footage, which shows she has another big bunch of flowers in her hands. Maybe she realised she could not carry them all.

But no, it's some nefarious purse to steal people's flowers and pretend that there her tribute

@BellePeppa

She slapped the hand away of the man who was helping her out of her wedding carriage

So I had to do some extensive research for this one. Mostly because it isn't true. The only small inkling that could allude to anything like it was her taking the man's hand and then withdrawing to grab her dress as it seems to get caught on the way out if the car. Slapping his hand away - what a leap....

she dismissed with a wave of her hand the £32m wedding.
*
I don't even know what this means, when? How? What context?*

She glared at little Charlotte at the wedding then smiled at the other children, *Lol, what?

she lied about no one helping her adjust to being in the RF,
How is this a lie?

she has accused people of calling her children the N word but has not elaborated further, *
I imagine it's more to do with protecting the image of the person who said it. Harry said it would be very damaging to the person who said it. She exonerated the Queen and the DoE. The Queen herself put out a statement to say the matter would be dealt with privately - also keen for the person not to be named.
*
she lied about being ‘silenced’ then forgot and said she’s never signed anything and has always had her voice, *
She never said had signed anything and was legally silenced though, did she? She said she was institutionally silenced and abuse from the press was never addressed by the institution. She says once they broke free from the institution they could say what they want as they had never signed anything. *

she spoke about herself all through her 7 minute speech instead of putting the focus on the reason she was there, etc etc etc
So a guest speaker referencing her own experiences of rags to riches before telling the listeners that they are 'the future, but also the present, driving the positive and necessary change needed across the globe.' Pretty sure this is putting a focus on the reason she was there.

You get the picture?
Not really, you haven't posted anything explicit that even remotely comes close to explaining the vitriol hurled at her. Your post is full of hyperbole and opinion, e.g. her 'looking' at Charlotte.

You don’t honestly think I’m going to now come back with responses to your responses? I’ve got dinner to make 😁 the Charlotte thing is on Youtube.

kirinm · 12/09/2022 19:36

I've just watched a collection of interviews Harry did when he was younger and has forgotten how much he hated the press. It's no wonder the press will absolutely try to obliterate him any way they can - including via his wife.

Where did I say you can't form your own opinion?

The irony is you've just done hat Meghan did (followed her own thinking) and yet are berating Kate for it.

@Peaceandcalm :"She garners considerable global interest (more than any other member of the royal family)"

Erm, what? More global interest than is currently (and historically) being shown by the entire planet towards Queen Elizabeth II?

LondonWolf · 12/09/2022 19:40

But no, it's some nefarious purse to steal people's flowers and pretend that there her tribute

I haven't said anything like this. I've simply described the footage involved and responded to assertions that it would be fine if Kate did it. I've no idea why Meghan didn't want to follow protocol, even after being gently and politely advised 🤷🏼‍♀️

To those who take the time to criticise the Duchess of Sussex at every given opportunity:

As you salivate at your computer screens, deluding yourselves that your opinions have an impact on the life of the Duchess, try to remember these facts:

• She is a member of the British royal family
• She has the love of a good man (a prince, no less) who has demonstrated his willingness to prioritise her happiness
• Her father-in-law (the current monarch) publicly expressed love for her
• She is independently wealthy
• She has adorable children whom she loves – and who incidentally are now entitled to use the titles, HRH Prince and Princess.
• She has a loyal group of friends (including high profile figures)
• She garners considerable global interest (more than any other member of the royal family) – giving her a platform to achieve any objective she sets: whether it be to influence, to secure business deals or to promote charities
• She is not afraid to take on her antagonists - and win!

Given all of that, I really don’t see why she would care about the disapproving sentiment of a small, insignificant group of people unable to discern fact from fiction. The Duchess of Sussex continues to win despite your protests – because she is living the life that she wishes to live. Take the time to do the same. Then perhaps you would be less invested in whether or not she holds on to flowers.

She just seems so unhappy, Omid. I think, personally, if you stepped away and both you and Harry stopped winding her up, her life would be a lot happier. She's not just a vehicle for your enrichment. She's a person. So stop it.

FriedasCarLoad · 12/09/2022 19:42

I think M&H have behaved badly over the last couple of years. But I really think they're beyond reproach in how they've responded to the Queen's death.

I'd want to have travelled with my husband too, so that was supportive. And when asked not to come she stayed behind. Any statements have been appropriate in timing and words. And that walkabout can't have been easy.

Some of the people in that crowd were most discourteous and ungracious. Rather ironic when they were there to pay their respects to a woman who was always polite and gracious!

Well said. Sums it up perfectly

I don't agree that I am. I know facts aren't popular when it comes to talking about Meghan and Harry though.

Kudos to Meghan for braving it out and facing the public. This woman has cojones. She must really love Harry!

I totally agree. It was very brave of her

Really not.

No idea how you can say that when I've repeated your own post back to you

But there we go

I dont expect you to be gracious enough to admit that you said "why should Meghan get to change the planned event"
Touche!

I corrected it to Meghan up thread. As you will have seen.

Did you watch the footage? None of the party laid flowers. Unless you've got different footage.
