It is being filmed on the 15th of December and is being shown on ITV on Christmas Eve. I have not seen confirmation if she is playing the piano again.

Kate looked stunning, that berry colour really suits her.

antelopevalley · 17/12/2022 22:45

I actually think Camilla is usually the best dressed woman from the Royals at any public event. She has good taste.

I don't think Pippa is a 'senior royal woman'. Or Charlotte? Zara? Possibly. Kate, definitely. Did Camilla, the most senior royal woman, wear burgundy? Or Beatrice? Or Eugenie? Think you're stretching credibility a little bit. There seem to be numerous balcony photos with people wearing the same colour. I understand the Queen wore bright colours so she could be seen easily.

Meghan said in the documentary that the senior royal women all have to wear different colours at a public event. So this was a petty dig.

Honestly you don’t have to believe everything Meghan says, there are loads of pictures of Kate and Camila wearing the same colour at events, I tried to link them but the images are protected, just Google and you will see.

if we’ve got no Queen (the Original) I want my royals in red tartan and velvet, candles twinkling, collared choirs singing carols earnestly at them, some tweed overcoats for the men, the crunch of cold gravel on Christmas Day and I do HOPE the new King in front of a gold piano (he won’t do it because people will squeak that he shouldn’t be showing off). I want clips of huge Christmas trees at Windsor and furry collars and tinsel.

I’m so sick of doom and gloom. I want Royals royalling, choirs carolling, and massive Christmas trees everywhere.

The original? How far back are you going?

Not this shite again

Correction. Meghan Markle said she couldn't wear the same colour as other royals when she was living in the UK.

Seems Kate and Camilla didn’t get the memo.

Now now @JaneJeffer

We all know that anything that resembles truth is not allowed on these ones.

You strayed way close to the accurate line there.

It is a carol service at Westminster Abbey. The focus is the carols and any piano playing by Kate.

Kate sings and plays piano? All
sounds a bit "Chaz n Dave" to me 🤣

DuchessOfPort · 17/12/2022 23:42

She did say that, yes, but she was wrong as so many photos on Google will show anyone. It seems an odd thing to claim when it can be disproven in about 30 seconds. I don’t understand why she even said it.

Lovely to have in the background while wrapping gifts etc.

Photos showing Meghan wearing the same colour as senior royals at public events?

Well, given she was only in the role for 5 minutes maybe she didn't have the opportunity. I can well believe it was a case of don't wear the same colours as HMQ - she usually wore bright colours so she could be seen.

DuchessOfPort · 17/12/2022 23:49

No, senior royal women wearing the same colour as other royal women at public events. Royal women weren’t banned from wearing the same colour as QEII for example. Of course she could wear any colour she liked.

antelopevalley · 17/12/2022 23:53

@DuchessOfPort She said she could not. So are there photos of her wearing the same colour as a senior royal at public events.

Yes.

Can you share them, I can't find any.

Oh come on! I was willing to accept Meghan was wrong. But the evidence is them all wearing black, presumably at Remembrance Sunday? It hardly counts.

OP posts:
antelopevalley · 18/12/2022 00:07

And if that is all you can find, I will assume what Meghan said was true.

OP posts:
DuchessOfPort · 18/12/2022 00:10

Meghan’s exact phrasing was this;
“To my understanding, you can't ever wear the same colour as Her Majesty if there's a group event, but then you also shouldn't be wearing the same colour as one of the other, more senior members of the family. “

She says “you can’t ever wear the same colour as Her Majesty”.

She doesn’t say “I couldn’t ever wear the same colour as Her Majesty.”

From this particular use of her language, I take her “you” to mean the collective “you”. Or “one”, if you will.

She also begins “To my understanding”. It sounds as though she guessed this or perhaps Harry erroneously told her this was the case.

She does not say “I was told”.

So when she says, with an instructive / informative phrase “…you can’t ever wear the same colour as Her Majesty”, this is not correct information.

There are several easily available photos of royal women of various levels of seniority wearing the same colour as the the Queen. This is who she is referring to as “Her Majesty”.

To be fair it’s hard to find pictures of Meghan with other members of the family as she was part of the firm for such a short time so there are not many events to choose from, but here she is in a similar colour to Camilla.
