The "Where's Meghan" Question Has Been Definitively Answered ...

She's been busy!

I hope that those who expressed concern will be happy to know that she has been working with the Archewell team on their just released Impact Report.

Meghan and Harry are polarising figures but there is no doubt that they have galvanising power to get projects, both little and big, off the ground.

Harry, with William and Kate, was a co-founder of the Royal Foundation in 2011. They had a start-up fund of just under 5 million pounds, of which 1.3 million pounds was given away in grants.

10 yrs later, Harry and Meghan set up Archewell, with start up funds of 13 million dollars, and give away three million dollars in grants.

As with both foundations, the reserve is carried over.

The range of their projects is interesting, from working with the Vaccine Alliance to raise private sector contributions to distribute vaccines, endowing academic fellowships, working with partners in resettling refugees from Ukraine and Afghanistan, working with World Central Kitchens, to smaller projects like the Uvalde community playground and park and a really cute project to a small charity that gives free hair braiding to young black girls in Texas.

I am so pleased for them, their advisors and staff as this is a dream start for any start up. I have long been sceptical that they may have spread themselves too thinly, so I am glad to see they are now focusing on just three areas, as they find their groove.

Yeah imagine that, posters name changing on an anonymous forum - mind blown 😂 maybe it’s cos they get hounded and bullied so frequently that they need to name change to evade persecution! Calling people haterz, racitz, pathetic, deranged, boring, weird etc. is bullying btw. Spying on their previous history and then using that info to try and shame them is also harassing and bullying by the way. Which you’ve obviously done again, hence your comments on the longevity of the names on this thread. Are you tracking all the posters on a spreadsheet? 😂Using the same name for months doesn’t make you more valid as a poster. Interesting how certain posters try and make that sound like a thing just to discredit others. Such a transparent move tho 😂

Also one of the super fans has accidentally exposed something on another thread, they started drawing attention to this thread, but made it look like they accidentally tagged the wrong person. However, even so, they managed to draw attention to this thread and spread misinformation that there was abuse (a pile on) on this thread.
The implication of this is kinda obvious. Maybe it was to rile up the troops and encourage a pile on of me, just cos I highlighted how I was being bullied and silenced. Also explains why all the usual suspects suddenly appeared to post at me around the same time, telling me off, parroting similar statements and using the same phrases, (e.g. WE KNOW) minimising my experience, and suddenly making it all about them selves by referencing stuff that happened to them apparently years ago to try and divert and hide what happened to me just a day ago. Also, I think it’s called triangulation when someone ropes in other people to legitimise what they are saying and uses this to try and take control. So again, v transparent.

Anyway, what’s that saying about pig wrestling?
Something about the pig enjoying it and the other person just ending up muddy - so yeah enough mud for me, I’m out! I’ll leave you to enjoy, urmmmm, whatever this is 😂

@misslonglegs many people on this very thread are critical of Meghan but have not been racist.

Neowulf · 02/02/2023 22:44

Before I go, I will repeat what I came on here to say, before I started getting harassed, Meghan is a nepo baby, as is Harry. And people claiming to love them cos they’re republicans make zero sense. Harry and Meghan will always be part of the royal family. One day they will prob make up with their families too. They care more about Charles, William, Thomas etc. than they do about their super fans, even when families fall out they are still bonded. So don’t get too invested and don’t be too heart broken when they’re all cordial with each other again 🥹😂

However, I did enjoy their spat, it was worth it for Spare 😂

PreparationPreparationPrep · 02/02/2023 23:37

@Neowulf - I didn't have a clue what you were talking about In your other posts. But now I know you really are paranoid. I am not hiding - I am happily exposing myself as the one you are referring to 👋🏾 . My post on the other thread had nothing to do with you only the poster I directed it to, and I quickly explained my mistake when I realised I had misread her post. Poor you !

MrsMaxDeWinter · 03/02/2023 00:27

@PreparationPreparationPrep

I would advise you to do what the Royals are apparently doing - maintain a silence so dignified it comes the hourly talking point for those not maintaining a dignified silence on their behalf.🤗

Genuinely, back away slowly, with your back towards the door, until you leave the building. Believe me, nothing good will come from engaging.

In the meantime, Haz and Meg are out partying with the some of the Hollywood A-listers we hear have shunned them and the neighbours who apparently loathe them. Go figure.🙄

Harry was , is and will be the son of the King and Diana Princess of Wales and got married to a global audience of over 1 billion folks. He has written the fastest selling non-fiction book of all time and he and his wife are loving their new life with their children in the US. And as MrsMax says they have been readily accepted into Hollywood royalty as actual royalty. They will never be boring or cease to be of interest in a social media drenched world. We can debate elsewhere if that's a good thing (it isn't IMHO) but they are going to be relevant, and of interest to huge amounts of people and monetizable for the rest of their naturals, and will do it on their own terms. The best thing the BRF fans could do is to ignore them but they won't.....

Meanwhile in other news Kate has a new coat.

ItsCurtainstothat · 03/02/2023 03:51

Of interest why? Honesty, once the whinge fest
has run out of momentum and material, what next? If they are as happy and fulfilled as you suggest, why don’t they enjoy their life and stop trashing Harrys family for money? Happy people don’t dwell endlessly on grudges.

vera99 · 03/02/2023 05:05

The Edward /Wallis example ( not withstanding the 'nazi' connections and the fact that they weren't in the UK during the war ) was a time before constant social media and a British press that chose to mostly ignore them. Out of sight out of mind. The question that some raise here is that they believe their value will rapidly decline as people tire of them. For better or worse I don't see that happening. The haters egged on by the tabloid press in particular seem to hang on their every utterance and appearance, as it must be said , do we.

Royal renewal! Prince Harry and Meghan Markle seen together for the first time together since bombshell memoir was published: Couple watch neighbours Ellen DeGeneres and wife Portia renew their vows at star-studded birthday bash

screams the Mail today for instance.

I wouldn’t count Ellen DeGeneres, Portia De Rossi and Kris Jenner as Hollywood A-listers. Ellen DeGeneres had to end her talk show due to the widespread accusations of bullying, racism and harassment from her staff. Her treatment of some of her guests was pretty unpleasant too.

Yes, I'm a bit surprised Harry and Meghan would party with someone like Ellen deGeneres given the stories that came out about her show.

CathyorClaire · 03/02/2023 10:00

And that's before we even think about the allegations against them possibly being highlighted by association.

Ah, well. Any port in a storm as the saying goes.

CathyorClaire · 03/02/2023 10:05

Any port in a storm as the saying goes.

Or the one about 'birds of a feather' or even that you're known by the company you keep.

vera99 · 03/02/2023 10:30

It's a private party , they maybe neighbours for all I know (just checked same small town so effectively are) and just want to party privately with other locals celebrating the marriage renewal of a friend. The photo is very grainy and obviously unauthorized so not sure what point folks are making implying it's kind of trashy.

Ohnonevermind · 03/02/2023 10:46

It’s interesting that a lot of those famous guests have discussed their drug taking in interviews and made the headlines for alcohol and drug related issues. Didn’t Harry take mushrooms at Courtney Cox’s too.

It doesn’t seem to be the Opoids family of drugs at least. Didn’t Meghan hand out joints at her first wedding so perhaps they’ve found their tribe

Most of those stars have make lots of money - even Courtney Cox is worth 150m so they can chill and enjoy life - they don’t have young kids.

The question that some raise here is that they believe their value will rapidly decline as people tire of them.

They do need to find something else other than trash talking the RF - and TBF they do seem to be trying to do just that.

Longer term the limelight will naturally go more on William's children as they reach adulthood.

Yeah imagine that, posters name changing on an anonymous forum - mind blown 😂 maybe it’s cos they get hounded and bullied so frequently that they need to name change to evade persecution!

I was first on another forum that didn't allow name changes and in RL someone recognised me and then deliberately misconstrue and tried to cause serious trouble in RL so I came here.

When I'm posting about health or my kids education I don't want to have to deal with derailing posters upset I differ on politics, women's rights or views on RF especially as etiquette of not trawling though other threads for posts has slowly disappeared.

I always thought Meghan and Harry could make their own way and do something positive with their lives and fame however I think Spare has proven to be more of a PR misstep than a positive.

And people claiming to love them cos they’re republicans make zero sense. Harry and Meghan will always be part of the royal family.

I have noticed this odd paring and I think some of that's the US influence - liking Meghan because she is US citizen ( as possibly her background and ethnicity ) and that they chose to live in USA but also the US republican views that are part of their culture.

I also think some actual political republicans think they are harming RF - which in a way they are but more the family human aspect and I think are more a distraction to the institution part - which is more power and tradition bit that I feel is harder and harder to justify with a modern country.

Groundhog Mumsnet: A Very Short Play

Day 1:

Where's Meghan? She's disappeared because she and Harry have lost friends and are being shunned by Hollywood and their Montecito neighbours! That's what happens to blabbermouths!

Day 2:

Where's Meghan? She was not invited to Oprah's birthday party (even though it was not actually Oprah's birthday party)! Oprah is done with them (even though Harry thanks her in his book)!

Day 3:

There's Meghan!

But so what? So what if Harry and Meghan are actually not being shunned and attended a party with friends, neighbours and Hollywood stars. They shouldn't be around them at all because Ellen is a bully like Meghan is a bully, and anyway Hollywood people are all druggies so they have found their tribe and, besides, it's any port in a storm.

Day 21:

Where's Meghan? She hasn't been seen since that Ellen party. She's disappeared because she and Harry have lost friends and are being shunned by Hollywood and their Montecito neighbours! That's what happens to blabbermouths!

TO BE CONTINUED, AD NAUSEAM AD INFINITUM.

i love Tom Holland and Dominic Sandbrook’s ‘the rest is history podcasts’ and I spotted an old one made about Harry and Meghan at the time of the Oprah Winfrey. I found it interesting, other posters might too.

Ellen is no longer popular - she’s on the outs. As Oprah should be as well - lapping up their nonsense to suit her own agenda

Roussette · 03/02/2023 13:18

Well put @MrsMaxDeWinter 😂 Rinse and repeat. 🤣

Ohnonevermind · 03/02/2023 13:31

Despite what people may think, it’s good they’ve found a tribe, while they smoke a bit of pot, I’ve always thought that Jennifer Aniston and Courtney Cox seems like lots of fun. They are chilled not ultra competitive, which will give the Sussex’s some breathing space.

Once they don’t let Mama Kardasian sign up as their manager 😀
