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

Re: the flowers, I can kind of see where Meghan was coming from with the flowers, to be honest. I have observed members of the Royal Family being given flowers before (for them, not to lay as a tribute) and it has struck me that it appears a bit curt to take them and then immediately get rid of them by passing them to a member of staff. I KNOW that it's because they would have too many to carry within a short space of time.
Meghan appeared to be making the point that she had been entrusted with the task of laying the flowers on a bystander's behalf and she presumably therefore wanted to carry out that task. On the face of it, that's a nice thing to do.
But, bear in mind also, that the RF are wary of both Harry & Meghan's motives at the moment, and aides may well have been warned to avoid letting either of them, in this case Meghan, set up any media shots that could be used for financial gain at a later date.
But anyway, Harry seems to have stepped in and the flowers were passed over.
And stand down, all! Crisis averted!

i agree

It was ‘carefully put together’ and she purposefully deviated from the script, even when it was politely pointed out, she kept going.

How do you know this? I saw a perfectly pleasant interaction over the flowers. Why do you think it was an issue?

"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."

Exactly Peaceandcalm. The hysteria on this thread is something to behold !

because two. aides had to ask for the flowers ? That seemed a give away to me.

Ohnonevermind · 12/09/2022 20:31

Another week and the Sussex’s shall return to the US and the RF will get on with it and there will be nothing more to see (fingers crossed)

The vitriol from some posters on here against Meghan is truly scary and frankly sickening. If I were here I would NEVER want to come back to this country and face such hatred, I wouldn't blame her if she never came back again.

How many posts would that be so far about what she did wrong about the flowers? I am not claiming she is blameless or has never done a wrong action; but one doesn't need to be a 'perfect' victim to be a true victim nonetheless. This goes beyond bullying, 'mobbing' is even more reprehensible. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mobbing

Most other RF members have made errors yet are given a much smoother ride. It is obvious that Meghan can never do anything right in the eyes of some people who have swallowed the tabloid stories.

I don't know where all this bile is coming from. The haters are not great monarchists, as the hate certainly isn't coming from K Charles who made a point of expressing love for Meghan as well as for Harry.

And sneers about 'playing the race card' should be treated with the contempt they deserve. You explain to the rest of us why Meghan is singled out for such hate; much more even than Andrew who had to pay of a sex abuse victim.

Isn't using "hysteria" to describe behaviour something of a no no these days?

Meghan’s an actress used to following direction. Used to following a script. It was carefully agreed but she decided unilaterally to rip up the script.

it’s not hard to follow really simple instructions
This is a fact not a racist rant

Exactly.

Charles expressed his love for them but that's not enough for those that want to pull her down. His words obviously mean nothing.

Interesting that Oprah has finally spoken out about the interview, so soon after the queens death

How nice - not Hmm
She hardly needs the publicity, and yet here's another one out to get a headline out of the occasion, involving something I can hardly imagine HM and her admirers were pleased about

Never mind H&M doing the right thing in leaving; the way this is going I reckon the Queen did too

Well, some people feel that both Harry and Meghan have insulted and disrespected our country. You may not agree with that but it is nonetheless how they feel and it appears they are reluctant to kill the fatted calf for them now they are here.
Actions have consequences, I guess.

The public don’t own Harry and Meghan FFS

lovehawaii · 12/09/2022 20:49

I think lot of people hate her because they think She drifted Harry away . But on her wedding day , people came together so that speaks volume. People tend to judge on basis of their opinion

smilesy · 12/09/2022 20:53

Well surprise surprise the line of succession has been updated with new titles and order twice and they haven’t been granted the titles.

The Sussexes decided to style their children as Master and Miss. Presumably they have not informed the Palace that they have changed their stance on this matter, which is why the titles haven’t appeared As plenty of pp have said, they are automatically granted the titles. Whether they use them or not is a different matter.

Why should they get titles? They left the RF Lillibet was born in the USA not christened in the cofe church and will most likely live there. The US doesn't have a monarchy.

Also she was called a liar about her children being blocked by the palace from being prince/princess. Everyone called her a liar on the grounds that when their granddaddy is king they will automatically receive the title. Well surprise surprise the line of succession has been updated with new titles and order twice and they haven’t been granted the titles. So turns out she wasn’t wrong after all. Regardless of what you think of her and harrys behaviour what kind of scumbags would punish toddlers for a parents actions?

We don’t know that it has been blocked. I believe I read somewhere, following Omid Scobie stirring the pot, that they were waiting on info before updating. I don’t know whether that’s waiting on the RF/King Charles to decide what he was doing or whether it has been batted back to PH&MM for them to let RF know if they want to their children to have/use titles and then it will be updated accordingly. I suspect the RF have batted it back. They aren’t silly.
