I fucking told everyone this at the time! Everyone was like “no way, the press are just being mean to Meghan she would never do that”

Harry has confirmed she did.

DICK MOVE from the two of them. I can see the MN thread now “it was my wedding and my bastard cousin stood up and announced the pregnancy and stole my limelight”

Harry and Meghan have form for inserting themselves into the public eye (publicity etc) every time something is happening in the RF. it was entirely deliberate to take the attention from Eugenie. I'm surprised she still talks to them.

HappyGrumpyDoc · 06/01/2023 22:39

Well many others wouldn’t care and obviously whichever York woman whose wedding it was, is still friends with them so why would anyone else be offended on her behalf if she was ok with it herself?

Isn't it very possible that Eugenie wasn't ok with it, but rose above it to remain friends.

I would consider it bad manners. I don't think I'm alone. A friend's sister announced her engagement at her sibling's wedding and the general feeling there was that the timing was very inappropriate.

There’s a difference between telling people who ask outright why you’re not drinking and actively seeking family members out and telling them, one by one, which is what Harry reports.

So it wasn’t an ‘announcement’? They sought individuals out and told them personally? So what!

In a situation where you don't know if you will or won't be upsetting someone (on their wedding day!) isn't it better to err on the side of caution and not say anything... it's called consdiering someone elses feelings 🤨

I think that Andrew's daughters aren't in the same place as Will and Kate though. Their father has been "exiled" and both the the press and the British public have been very hard on him. (I'm not commenting on PA but on how what's happened to him might have impacted his daughters).

It must have been hell for them and they may have felt solidarity with M and H in that.

That seems very far fetched, I have attended weddings and birthdays where someone has announced a pregnancy or other significant event and nobody died! The idea of a sacred bride is something I’ve only seen on here and on the telly, same with no babies at weddings.

But tbh, none of us know for sure. That is my point, there is no need to manipulate everything they do when the reality is, none of us actually know! It is just as likely that H&M account is true but it seems everyone is tying themselves in knots to say otherwise. The media as always, are manipulating a narrative and the RF are colliding because that is what they have always done, it serves them for H&M to be vilified whether they are being truthful or not. I am not a fan of theirs but it really isn’t difficult to see what’s happening.

Sorry I am a bit confused by what you are trying to say in some parts of your post above. When you write it is just as likely that H & M account is true, are you referring to their overall account of their time as working royals together or H sharing he and Meghan announced their pregnancy on Eugenie’s wedding day? I presume former as we know they announced it on Eugenie’s wedding day as H has shared this in his book. Or perhaps you are saying H and M knew Eugenie would not mind? That is possible, but if they had not told her they were going to announce it then I personally would view it as good manners to not say anything on the day as though some might not mind many would.

On your general note that the media (not all are anti H and M, but majority are) will be framing the narrative around the book’s revelations in the worse possible light of H and M, I don’t disagree as readers we should be aware of this. However, so far some of H’s revelations are not showing him in a great light even without a negative media spin. As I said in a previous post like most disagreements amongst friends/family, all involved will have some legitimate grievances to varying degrees and I am sure the same applies to H and M, but from H’s own words so far he doesn’t seem willing to acknowledge any fault in the fall out.

Oh give over. Somebody telling other family members they were expecting a baby during somebody else’s wedding reception is not an issue unless the bride is twelve years old! There are far bigger problems in the world.

Because Harold’s told us. He was there.

Again I really think people are overlooking the coat giveaway and subsequent headlines the next day

I agree and just wrote that in my post after yours before reading you made the same point.

Really? I thought the speculation on the timing had been the press being mean. That's very bad form.

She also wore clothes that made her look massively pregnant when she must hasve only been a few weeks.

Redblanky · 06/01/2023 22:48

Something's obviously gone over my head, but what's with all the "Harold"?

Pottyaboutplants · 06/01/2023 22:48

Blossomtoes · 06/01/2023 22:46

However you don’t know how it was done and it doesn’t sound like they stopped the music and grabbed a microphone to make a grand announcement!

They told some family members. Jeez some posters sound incredibly immature.

Pansypotter123 · 06/01/2023 22:49

Harold was William's childhood "nickname" for Harry. Harry's was Willy for William.

I keep reading online saying it's a cultural thing, Brits need to lighten up etc but would appreciate if an American could tell me if this is the done thing in the US and socially/culturally acceptable since all the Bridezilla movies come from the US?

Well only with a certain class of people, I imagine. My family in the US would never dream of doing something so common🤣

I think it shows how deluded and lacking in self awareness he is that he would write this in a book and not realise how bad it makes him look?

This applies to several of the "leaked" snippets tbh

Whether or not you think it's OK to tell fellow guests at the wedding, that outfit was designed to make sure all the press photos weren't of the bride.

Wetblanket78 · 06/01/2023 22:52

It's a shitty thing to do. A friend of mine one of her bridesmaids was 10 week's pregnant but she kept it to herself until a few weeks after the wedding.

JudgeJ · 06/01/2023 22:53

GrinAndVomit · 06/01/2023 21:30

Also a bit narcissistic to have to be centre of attention, how fragile some people's egos are.

Agree with this bit. Meghan shouldn’t have felt the need to be centre of attention that day.

But she seems to always want to be the centre of attention, probably why she wasn't wanted at HM's bedside in September.

TumbleJots · 06/01/2023 22:54

Announcing her pregnancy was at another woman's wedding was a dick move.
It was seen as such a dick move that her supporters rushed to say it wasn't true.
They did this because they knew it was a dick move and wanted to deny it.
If they had thought it was fine, no-one would have felt the need to deny it-you don't have to deny acceptable behaviour.

Now, the idiots have shat on their supporters by saying it was true. Not just this incident either.
Several other dick things that they have done-and which others denied as things they would not have done-have also been confirmed by the fools.

What a pair of gormless twats!

Eugenie mustn’t have been bothered. She was upset with Beatrice announcing her pregnancy on H&M’s wedding anniversary!
Eugenie annoyed with Beatrice

Well that makes no sense. If Eugenie wasn't bothered about H&M announcing their pregnancy at her wedding, why on earth would she be bothered about Beatrice announcing her pregnancy on H&M's 3rd wedding anniversary?

Aha yes but now their supporters have moved the goalposts and it’s no longer a dick move! All their dick moves are now fine - hurray!
