Who is behind the camera taking pictures of Meghan crying?

Prince Harry is such a whiney little man

splatfrog · 02/12/2022 03:35

I forsee a phenomenal car-crash (forgive the pun) of a divorce along the line. At a maximum, I give their marriage until his first child reaches the age Harry was when his mother died.

The whole "H&M have to whore themselves to Netflix etc. because it's the only way they can pay for security" is irritating. If they had been sensible and maintained a decent relationship with Prince/King Charles, he would have paid for the security privately from his own funds. Shame they burned their bridges, huh.

I noticed that look too

Shes an actress and would be very aware that there were cameras about.
I feel the same about the way she looked at Harry when they said their vows, just didn't look natural.

agree

SoosanCarter · 02/12/2022 04:02

During the entire wedding she looked like an actress playing the part of a bride. Fixed smile.
Particularly when compared with Eugenie who beamed with joy during hers.

You don't have to understand why people love the Sussexes though. I can't stand the Cambridges but I am not bothered that they are loved by a large part of the population.

People will love those you hate and people will hate those you love. It's just life.

That's a good point and maybe something I need to really think about a bit more!

What bothers me is how people defend things H & M have said which are patently untrue. That's the bit that really irks me. And to maybe a lesser degree, how people think it's OK for them to say a) the press are awful and will hound you, and really destroy your mental health while b) knowingly throwing their high profile family to the mercy of the press, being aware that due to royal etiquette they'll never be able to respond and that they're subjecting their so-called loved ones to exactly the same treatment that apparently made Meghan suicidal.

Thinking about it, I guess it's the understanding how people can defend the things they've said and done, or insist that things are true when they very bloody clearly are lies. Those are the things that really seem to get under my skin - it's the lies and injustice of it all that I find hard to ignore. And that's when I wonder if there's something I've missed because I don't understand how the things they've said and done can ever be considered as OK.

If I were to set all of that aside, I don't care that people like someone that I don't. Similarly, I'm not bothered in the slightest if people don't like William and Catherine. Different horses for courses, and all that. What I don't like is hearing lies spoken about them, or the Royal family. The Republican and Monarchists both have valid points, and in many ways it's just a matter of opinion. But I dislike either side lying to score points or to try and "win". Same with H/M and W/C - don't care what side you're on, but don't resort to making shit up. There's nothing wrong with acknowledging someone's poor behaviour while saying that it's a) not a priority for you b) it was provoked or c) you don't care because the other side deserve it. I might not agree but I can understand the viewpoint. What I can't understand is the blind insistence that 2+2 = 5.

Jennybeans401 · 02/12/2022 04:14

I didn't really have any feelings either way about Harry and Meghan before. I think it really smacks of hypocrisy when you harp on about privacy though then make films about your life. Clearly it's okay to have publicity as long as you can control it and make money from it.

I feel for William and Kate, j am no royalist but to have your brother throwing his family under the bus is heartbreaking.

This one

How ridiculous. I had to watch the trailer three times to get what posters were on about because I couldn't find a stern Kate pic

Just so you all know who haven't watched the trailer, it shows that church scene for a split second, and they all look stern. Blink and you'd miss it. What a fuss about nothing

Roussette · 02/12/2022 04:31

user1477391263 · 02/12/2022 03:09

Was it really necessary to choose an unflattering picture of their sister-in-law framed as the "behind-closed-doors" problem?

Harry and Meghan need to learn that trashing your relatives in public is never a good look.

It's not the slightest bit unflattering. And you see it for literally half a second!

Now if they'd shown that unfair and awful one of Kate from the Remembrance parade one of the rags published I'd say you have a very valid point

Dorisbonson · 02/12/2022 04:32

The problem is people want to believe Meghan. They like the narrative that the royal family is racist and the actions of the likes Lady Hussey and Prince Andrew provide sufficient evidence of wrong doing that people can believe it.

I hope the royal family take legal action if there are lies and stop this however undignified that maybe but she is out to destroy them and Harry has been brainwashed into going along with it. Hopefully one day he wakes up and questions how he has gone from a fun loving soldier to subservient woke California house husband.

DuncanBiscuits · 02/12/2022 04:34

It’s a bit cringe isn’t it?

Roussette · 02/12/2022 04:36

Kate has been dragged into this unholy mess through nothing she's done, said, or way she's behaved. She's acted with grace and decorum in the face of spite and what is now actually appearing as jealousy.

How on earth do you know this?
You don't

You know as much about what Kate has done or not done as the media has fed you

What you're saying could be true. On the other hand it could be completely untrue ..all we know is, we dont know all that's gone on

AlwaysGinPlease · 02/12/2022 04:42

Ugh they're both just ridiculous. Hear your story? You whinging pair never bloody shut up. Privacy my arse.

Roussette · 02/12/2022 04:46

Don't watch it then! Ignore it! Avoid it! Avoid threads about it!

I never get it when posters who can't stand them, get so wound up about them but want to keep talking about them to wind themselves up!

onlythreenow · 02/12/2022 05:17

Why do this boring couple attract so much attention? It's quite beyond me. They seem to think the world is hanging onto their every word and action and just keep making themselves look more stupid and desperate with each new venture.

3luckystars · 02/12/2022 05:30

It’s mad isn’t it. They all have everything and yet are not happy.

3luckystars · 02/12/2022 05:32

Everything anyone could ever wish for, but no peace.

Soproudoflionesses · 02/12/2022 05:53

The truth is none of will really know what has gone on.

But I am Team Kate!

vera99 · 02/12/2022 06:04

Series 6 of Netflix's The Crown has begun ! I'll be watching.

Suboptimalsitch · 02/12/2022 06:13

Apart from Doria, Meghans family seem to have a huge need to play their grievances with one another out in public. Meghans father, half sister and brother making videos, going on daytime tv, writing books about her. They can’t talk to one another so use tv and social media to fire shots across the bow in order to put their side across. It’s really fucked up. So I’m not surprised at this series, which is nothing more than a point scoring vendetta. It’s going to be like Dawson’s Creek and The Kardashian’s crossed with Love Story. Public shaming, ridiculing and lambasting seems to be the only way most of her family are to communicate.

Sadly they have all been handed a hugely profitable poisoned money tree watered by the bitter tears of her half-sisters uber world class social climbing. With the Queen dead it's a no holds barred race to bottom. I could almost see at some point the Windsor's chucking in the towel to live life as hugely rich commoners with benefits on their own terms. Charles's announces the end of the monarchy at his own hands. What a plot twist that would be .......

and if Harry can’t see that he’s either exceptionally dim

I don't think he's exceptionally dim. He's just exceptionally self-absorbed and doesn't think of others feelings. Which is strange because he and Diana are very much people persons, and yet she too had this ability to cut people off dead. It's like they can't see past their own needs.

I think he's bought into Meghan's narrative about how his family is horrible and he's a victim, and he can't currently see past it.

At this stage, Meghan must have spent more time talking about being in the royal family than actually being in the royal family.

Perfect ! Totally agree..

I have no strong feelings about this whole debacle (I quite like both Meghan and Kate actually), but this whole woe is me I only have my millions from my mother act from Harry wears thin.

If they'd moved to a smaller house instead of a mansion and lived the private life he said they wanted, presumably they'd both have less need for security and would have more money for it!!

OMG12 · 02/12/2022 06:34

The way Kate’s picture is in between two pictures of Meghan crying and the comments about “when the stakes are this high doesn’t it make sense to hear our story from us” tells me everything I need to know.

everything will be how they hated the royal family, they got bullied they think their opinion matters more than anyone else’s they are going to keep milking this forevermore. It’s like the mate down the pub who has one drunk story he rolls out every time he’s had more than a pint. People listen politely at first, don everyone just switches off.

like a PP said, what are they hoping to achieve? The royal family will carry on long after they’re dead.,
