Anyone else think The Times should not be printing extracts from this new book about Royal Courtiers at this time? Incredibly stupid given that H&M are trying to mend fences? I feel really quite cross for everyone involved - William's efforts to build bridges etc, all going to be in vain now. Very naughty.

Nobody hates Meghan.

So if you don’t hate her are you all just really unhappy? I can’t fathom why anyone would spend time so much time bitching about someone (they’ve never met).

yes, that true, but why then open old doors and throw shit through them?

If they went forward with their new lives and no regrets, we would all admire them for it. Re-invent themselves, don't try and be proxy royals in America. Ditch the titles (after all, they are part of the closed doors) and live their best lives, no coy insinuations of "i've got more to tell and won't be gagged/I've got a book of my true life and my truths coming out"

That first line really made me laugh!

Probably not- Harry seems to have met his partner that mirrors his victimhood.
It’s a strange relationship- She appears to want wealth and fame and worldwide adoration -
He wants a Mummy and someone exciting sexually- just my opinion-
Harry is being used, for sure, but doubt if he regrets it .
They can whinge and play the victim forever-
It’s likely he’s the sock puppet.

What was portentous was Meghan’s brother’s letter to Harry written in 2018-
Saw it yesterday, and it’s spot on! The brother clearly knows his half sister.

Good grief! You have an opinion on what Harry wants sexually now? Shock

As for the brother's revolting letter, it was absolutely vile. So much so, that he wrote a full and long apology for all the names he called her and said he acted like a complete arse.

RandomPenguinHouse · 26/09/2022 21:06

And what do you think makes Meghan seem exciting sexually? 🧐

You are ridiculous - you think I live on this forum? I just read the last page which appeared and clicked reply/ quote then when I had time read back and saw the poster actually apologised. Stop being nasty. It wont phase me at all. Tag me and post whatever - I will have a good night sleep

I’M the ridiculous one? Grin

You’re the one saying I was being nasty because I said you were being disingenuous and sticking the boot in. Which you clearly were.

No I didn’t think you “lived on this forum” but having just done a search of your posts today to check this - well let’s just say this isn’t your strongest argument.

I don’t really know how what people said about Roussette last week has anything to do with this, other than you’re trying to stick the boot in to posters again and make a ‘hating Meghan’ point again.

It’s pretty obvious a besotted Harry was led by his little head.

The letter looks pretty portenious to many people-
What bits look untrue?
Time will tell if Thomas Jr is correct.

Why did he apologise profusely in great detail about the letter then? He didn't have to, but he did.

Obviously untrue or he wouldn't be apologising would he

Oh - is it the same as William or something different? 😂

(But seriously, in both cases, things I really have no interest in considering….!)

Nor me! It just doesn't seem right somehow!

DuchessOfPort · 26/09/2022 21:31

Oh no. No no no. Neither of them. Any of them. We none of us want to go down that route of speculation - we can agree on that, whatever side of the debate we happen to be on, surely!

🤣
There isn’t much left out there that hasn’t been discussed on these threads but no one, certainly that I can recall, has ever gone there before - there is a line and I think that’s probably it😁

LondonWolf · 26/09/2022 21:47

Exactly. But I can't be arsed to talk of the double standards on here! The case of me apparently having to call out an insult when I wasn't even online was pathetic. On and on for a long time, all my fault, and really rude

You're exaggerating to the point of fibbing here. Same old same old. No one was rude, I just didn't believe you, and that's ok you know, you are not some untouchable sage who can't be challenged. Every time I come on here I swear to myself I won't get sucked into certain pro Meghan supporters disingenuousness but when I see this kind of misrepresentation, I have to challenge it. I really wish people would stop bringing it up tbh. It's so boring to have to keep talking about it!

@RandomPenguinHouse last week a pro Meghan poster called me a "cunt" for no real reason, I wasn't being particularly controversial and it came from no where. Not one Meghan supporter spoke against it - astonishingly considering they rail so strenuously against supposed personal insults against themselves and call any criticism of Meghan "bullying", and all claimed not to have seen it, as the post had been deleted. The insult was further referenced in several subsequent posts, which were not deleted and two familiar faces actually took the side of the person who said it (not @Roussette) but still, apparently no one saw it so therefore could not be expected to speak up...Later on another thread the hypocrisy was called out by other posters and obviously none of them liked that! So now you know what actually happened. At the time after challenging, I left the thread and didn't post again, hoping it could be left alone, but no here we are again. I will leave this thread too as I can't be arsed with the incoming onslaught of hurt denials and pseudo outrage.

See you all on the next thread. I'm sure it won't be long Wink

Hillcrest2022 · 26/09/2022 21:56

Let's give @Roussette a break can we? I always find her posts very measured and considered.

RandomPenguinHouse · 26/09/2022 22:02

Thanks for explaining @LondonWolf

IrisVersicolor · 26/09/2022 22:02

Well quite.

I vaguely remember this. I was attacked for agreeing with someone who said something I didn’t see.

If you want to convince anyone that posters on the M bitching threads are sane this is not the way to go about it.

IrisVersicolor · 26/09/2022 22:03

.Well quite.

That was to @Hillcrest2022

SilverLiningPlaybook · 26/09/2022 22:09

IrisVersicolor · 26/09/2022 20:54

So if you don’t hate her are you all just really unhappy? I can’t fathom why anyone would spend time so much time bitching about someone (they’ve never met).

I can’t fathom why some people sit on this forum all day long in some cases policing these threads just to tell anyone who has anything critical to say about Meghan AND Harry that they are really unhappy haters? Why don’t you have better things to do?

Roussette · 26/09/2022 22:13

Bottom line, it's not fair to call out someone for a deleted post they didn't see as they weren't online at the time, and the fallout after wasn't clear.
That never happens for me!
Anyw

BlueRidge · 26/09/2022 22:14

Well, exactly, @SilverLiningPlaybook . Especially when those same posters are quite happy to post "hate" about other royals.
The double standards are remarkable.

Hmmm..
So not one person who is ‘pro Meghan’ for want of a better phrase saw it? I don’t believe that for a minute.

Yes so attack me to avoid answering the question.

I was ill in bed yesterday and this thread was my entertainment. But I never post on RF threads and very rarely on MM ones, which appear to consist of the same posters bitching repeatedly across multiple threads.

SilverLiningPlaybook · 26/09/2022 22:19

I’m not attacking you.I’m making a general observation.

Roussette · 26/09/2022 22:20

i didn't believe you, and that's ok you know, you are not some untouchable sage who can't be challenged

Exactly. You told me that repeatedly. But don't expect me not to push back when being told I'm a liar.

I didn't post it but I get attacked for it when I wasn't even online!
And you're still doing it.

No misrepresentation.
No disingenuousness.

I DID NOT SEE IT?

OK?

Lulz. It’s the old attack is the best form of defence lark - turn the question round on the asker to avoid answering.
