Kate - walkabout with Harry & Meghan after Queen’s death one of the hardest things she’d done.

[UserOfManyPseudonyms]

Thought she’d shot daggers at Meghan when she got out of the car!

Wonder why that was?

That was before the Netflix doc and Spare release as well.

Coincidence this is being published now before H&M confirm if they’re going to accept the invite to the coronation?

Hear hear. That post is said with a tinkly laugh and 'free spirit' in inverted commas.

Who cares about Doria with any absence away...all that is listed about Thomas is conveniently ignored...no comments on that I see.

Plus... is 'free spirit' now a criticism?

I was one for a great many years when I was younger.
I never knew ho hum

@Morestrangerthings Thomas has certainly made a mess of recent years, no dispute there, but he doted on Meghan as a child, paid for her private schooling, took her with him to film sets (all of which she appreciated if you listen to her own words about how loving and supportive her father was).

Doria didn't seem to be around much when she was growing up, who knows why, but parenting isn't black and white.

To read comments here about how vile Thomas is and how Doria is a saint is ridiculous. Thomas was a good dad for a very long time, and Doria is a good mum now. They are both human and have made mistakes.

I sincerely hope it's not reverse racism and Thomas is evil because he is white, and Doria an angel because she is black?

why has a thread about something Kate might have said become a back the black lady thread.
M's dad has proved time and time again how awful he is, her mum has done nothing wrong, yet gets bashed. don't normally say this on here, but this reeks of racism and sexism.

I said earlier that I intensely dislike both PH and MM. But how the Markles have behaved towards MM is disgusting. Just disgusting. I recall when TM said he would release a story a day or whatever it was to force her to talk to him. Quite breathtaking really and no bloody wonder they did not want them at the wedding (or anywhere near them).

Sadly though Jersey he has a LOT of support on here

i think this is such a good post. I might just keep quoting it when someone posts about how hard done by he is.

but he doted on Meghan as a child, paid for her private schooling, took her with him to film sets

So? That means all the crap he’s done recently doesn’t matter? What a weird way to look at things you have. You go on and on about every tiny little thing Harry & Meghan do but are ready to dismiss completely or minimise what Thomas has done because he paid for stuff like any parent? So what? When she really needed him, he betrayed her and harassed her, using her children as pawns in his blackmail. Revolting. No idea why anyone thinks Doria wasn’t around because her main house was her fathers for some of her childhood. Doria was always in her life and more importantly, has been her rock throughout the most difficult time of her life. There’s absolutely no logical reason to criticise her at all. None. There is only one reason anyone would do so given all the facts.

Where have I criticised M&H's every little thing? I post a couple of times a day on various subjects, whereas you and some others seem to live here.

Why don't you actually read what I've put? Both parents have made mistakes, both parents love their daughter.

There has been bad behaviour on all sides at some time and points to a very dysfunctional family overall.

And coming back to say Harry's family is dysfunctional is not actually responding to my point, it's just deflect and divert.

From what I have seen so far the Markle's (all of them) are trying to make a buck from wherever/whenever/whomever they can, by fair means or foul including selling each other down the river. It's not a completion to see who is the worst family member, they are all pretty grim as far as I'm concerned. They are a dysfunctional family as are the RF as are many other families worldwide. Doria has been very wise in staying well away from it all.

There has been bad behaviour on all sides at some time

Nope. You haven’t actually identified any bad behaviour by Doria, just rumours and crap found here and Reddit. She’s certainly not comparable to the Markles whatsoever.

I really don’t ‘live here’, I just show up when posters like you write lies and crap that deserves refuting. I live a normal life outside of this forum like everyone. There’s plenty of total threads I’m not on. All you guys do when we point out your flawed criticisms of Meghan, Harry & Doria is repeat ‘ you guys live here’ and it’s because you don’t have a valid argument.

This. Some posters on here think that they are hiding their racism, but it is very apparent, the more they are posting.

purple you can't minimise your participation in the M&H threads, or dismiss it just like that.
You are a constant. And one thing I take from your posts is how much you dislike them. You cannot pretend otherwise.

It seems like you put Thomas on a par with Doria from your post. What on earth has Doria done wrong?

And how does it compare to the massive list of Thomas's horrible behaviour listed above? The poor woman has behaved with grace and decorum yet you say "both parents have made mistakes" thereby dismissing his ..just like that..with no note of her supposed "mistakes"

Totally. I'm still waiting to hear about Doria's misdeeds.

Up until recently she hasn't had this flak levelled at her. We've obviously moved up a level on these threads

I agree with you@Roussette . I am also interested to hear what Purple has to say about Doria's supposed misdeeds too.

I'm still waiting to hear about Doria's misdeeds.

There aren’t any. Anything they’ve said here is made up crap. There’s nothing so they harp on about some period of her childhood where her main address was her dads. How is two parents co parenting an example of being a bad mother? Comparable with blackmailing your child publicly and threatening them? Selling stories? Doris is an excellent mother and anyone here claiming otherwise does so with no basis at all. They won’t admit the real reason of course but it’s obvious.

Exactly@Whaeanui . As I said before, certain posters on here think that they are disguising their racism.

I've demonstrated before I only post occasionally... 7 posts from a total of 250+ on one I was accused of this, so let's get that straight. I'm not the one criticising Doria, but as I've been pushed into this corner, I'll ask one question. In the numerous interviews Meghan gave before her relationship with Harry, where is the one praising her mothers input? Plenty praising Thomas but a deafening silence where her mum is concerned.

@purpledalmation What mistakes has Doria made, that you said she has in your earlier post then?

Well being so little in her DDs life as she was growing up. And don't give me this joint parenting crap. She was in a different state running a travel agency. I hate criticising mothers, but personally I find it impossible to believe a mother would leave her child.

You answer my question on where M sings the praises of her mother in the same way she did her father?

I know your name and notice your posts, same as you do mine. Who cares anyway, but if someone was to ask me I'd say you are a prolific poster on these threads

Do you not realise what you're doing?

Inventing conflict between a mother and daughter where there is none. Seeing them together, they appear really really close, it's lovely.

Is that all that is wrong with her? Her daughter didn't speak much about her? You just sound gossipy and mean

You obviously don't hate criticising mother's at all. You're doing it very well

You have NO IDEA what the situation was then. You're just making up shitty stuff to have a go at a black mother

Any comments on Thomas's horrible actions and behaviour?

I only post occasionally

So? Even if true, so? We are talking about what you post. For someone claiming to only post occasionally, you have a lot of deletions for personal attacks.

Doria was not absent most of Meghans childhood. It simply isn’t true. As for only criticising mothers not living with their children, you really are revealing more of yourself with every post. Harry & William didn’t live with Charles full time, he, as everyone knows, was away a lot. He had to send Harry to others to be looked after during school holidays after Diana died. You cannot hold Doria to a standard you don’t hold the others to. Because, as we keep saying, there’s isn’t a plausible reason to do so. Why are you treating Doria different? What could it possibly be….

This is utter nonsense.
MM gushed about her mum on the tig. She had plenty of pictures of them together too.

On Thomas documentary he asked MM to come live with him for a while and she agreed. He had footage of a total of 1 month. He then claimed to have lived with her, except they had footage of MM driving at around 16/17, saying she is not talking to her father at that moment. They also show MM's bedroom with her possessions at Doria's house and (the producers) put up a note saying that despite what TM said, MM was actually living with her mother at that time.

The director went to Jeremy Vine and complained that TM was a complicated man who lied about some things as their research said otherwise (including how much time MM spent living with him full time). He was paid no less than 16K, though the director would not disclose the exact amount.

TM did pay for MM private school. By the time she was at Uni, he had already squandered his lotto win on a dodgy diamond business deal that went tits up.

She was co-parenting, so hardly not being in her life, is it? Co-parenting is a thing, and works just fine for thousands of families, yet you call it crap, which is horribly dismissive of a situation that many people on here will be in, and says a lot about you. In answer to your question, on the basis that I have not heard Meghan singing the praises of either of her parents, I am unable to answer.
