Who is behind the camera taking pictures of Meghan crying?

I am very glad the Queen shut them down on their plan quickly and swiftly, the brass neck to release that statement as if it’s a fata compli without getting agreement from the Queen! as if HM would allow them to set up pseudo royal court in America, I really think Harry and Meghan thought this plan would set their status higher than William and Kate who would only be King and Queen of our little insignificant little island, but they would be King and Queen of America and the world! Luckily HM was no fool and put the brakes on sharpish, their plan was not so cunning after all.

The York’s?

Not a chance. The York girls aren't so stupid that they'd risk their relationship with the king for a walk on role in "Keeping Up with the Mountbatten Windsors."

Yes.

Its more powerful to let them continue with being seen to be disingenuous, hypocritical and self serving by slating the institution whilst monetising it’s branding.

I agree. Let them be themselves without being censored. If they have anything genuine to say let them say it and get it out into the open. If they don't then it will become apparent

Ohnonevermind · 02/12/2022 17:23

Perhaps by family they mean Harry’s second father David foster and her second mother Elton John

Ohnonevermind · 02/12/2022 17:25

You can buy titles easily and I could change my first name legally to ‘Princess ’ and middle name to ‘ohnevermind - didn’t Katie Price call her daughter princess

Sigma33 · 02/12/2022 17:26

Indeed. Please address meas HRH Princess Sigma!

From reading comments on forums elsewhere, this series isn’t going to be working in M & H’s favour.

they have made a massive miscalculation of the public’s interest, attention span and care factor for their perceived injustices…

maybe it should have been titled “No going back” .

diddl · 02/12/2022 17:29

They do seem to keep digging when they should have stopped long ago-or perhaps never started!

It is though reminiscent of a certain non sweaty person's interview.

Such (imo) a difference between how they think they come across & how they actually do.

I think though the die was cast with the engagement interview.

MarshaMelrose · 02/12/2022 17:34

I think people are overreacting. Charles is not going to remove any titles. It would set an unnecessary and awkward precedent.

No one in the RF is going to get into a tit for tat spat. That'll keep a dignified silence. Possibly getting others to leak corrected information.

They'll just put their head down and plough on with going out meeting the public, publicising charities and doing what's expected of them.

RosettaStormer · 02/12/2022 17:34

I honestly can’t think of another couple who are this unaware or narcisstic. The damage they are doing is off the scale.

Yes, I mean the interest is there but for the wrong reasons. People are laughing at them whilst feeling sorry for the rf.

We're all talking about it. Millionschavecwatvhed the trailer. It'll be one of, if not the, most watched programmes of the year.

I agree it will be popular to watch, but I suspect if H & M thought doing this series would shine a light on their good works, it will be completely overshadowed by their continual drama and place them in a less positive light and mindset with the public.

Probably to have a giggle about and take part in water cooler gossip. The trouble is if you brand yourself as a victim but are actually insanely rich during a global recession, you become sad and irrelevant. This woe is me approach is counter productive, they don't come across aspirational or strong and won't appeal because of that.

It's a huge shame. Does Meghan possibly suffer from rejection sensitive dysphoria due to being abandoned by her mother at a young age? This could explain why she is so thin skinned and walking down this path of self destruction rather than enjoying her lovely family. I suppose Harry is a pretty dark character too and a lot of anger is coming from him. As lady Susan said, this will all end in tears.

The comments on the trailer are just hysterical. Netflix should do an Episode 7 with just the comments and the memes.

This one is so funny.

Oh the ratings will be massive! but not because they are popular, but to see them in full Netflix glorious technicolour digging their own graves, the sales of popcorn will go through the roof so at least they are inadvertently helping the recession a little bit.

Ohnonevermind · 02/12/2022 17:55

At this stage it seems rather ‘welease wodewick’ from the Life of Brian

FaithsSong · 02/12/2022 17:56

How will Liz Garbus have run with it though - as she has an exemplary reputation?

I doubt she would allow it to dissolve or descend into reality trash.

Sounds like a large part will be an academic / forensic look at the media impact on their relationship.

Yes it's just all so fantastically cringeworthy. Who tf is advising them? Whilst we will no doubt snigger at their ridiculous fluffy monologues and their bore off tales of persecution we mustn't forget there is a family in thr middle of all this and I can't imagine the hurt and anger this will cause his brother and father. It's just grossly inappropriate.

Nobody wants to watch a 'forensic' look at 4 year old tabloid headlines though.

NF know that very well.

ArcaneWireless · 02/12/2022 17:59

In my experience truly happy people don’t want to encourage mistrust and unhappiness for others. They tend to be wanting to spread happiness. To truly be happy. To love the fact they are happy.

Should they be able to say their piece? Yes. Absolutely There are always two sides to every story though and hearing only one side never really sits comfortably with me.

Should they have made their view known without the need for a big company or an individual ramping up the drama? Aye. Maybe.
It shouldn’t have been about the fee/deal. Unfortunately that is how it seems to many.

It is a shame it didn’t all get said in private or If it had to be public, with the first interview.Then everyone could have reflected, dealt with matters and moved on.

I do think though that rather than being cagey - who said and did what should be aired. Then the individuals concerned could address it. Especially if recollections vary. It is unfair to cast a shadow over everyone unless that is really truly the case.

They are happy. They love each other. They have children and dogs and chickens and a good life. Time to absolutely rejoice in that and look forward.

Regardless of who you are, looking back and going over everything in a public arena a few times cannot be healthy or beneficial to one’s well being going forward.

If you want to be NC then do so.
But maybe be prepared that a one sided narrative may be taken the wrong way and that words said in public are out there forever. And damage, once done, is not easily healed.

Say your piece, deal and then live the lovely life you have made for yourself. And enjoy it for all you say it is.

I feel desperately sorry for William and Kate, as well as Charles. They don’t deserve this.

shockthemonkey · 02/12/2022 18:02

"When the stakes are so high... (doesn’t it make more sense to hear the story from us?)”

What are these high stakes she's talking about? Does the world stand to gain something momentous if the story is told well, or might some terrible price need to be paid if the story is told badly?

Jackiebrambles · 02/12/2022 18:04

Surely the stakes are, sort of over now? It's done isn't it? They are just eking out the leftovers of their short time in the royal family. Netflix will be delighted as so many will watch. I wonder if Harry's relationship with his brother / father will ever recover. It's really sad.
