Megan pregnant with third?

Recent photos, she's walking with friends and she's so slim but definitely looks just like my sister did when she was about 6/7months pregnant - she's wearing black but I'm sure I can see a bump that isn't her usual figure!

Might just be the angle but it would explain why she didn't attend the Coronation and why Harry flew back so quickly. I appreciate he had Archie's birthday too but it would be another reason.

I just looked at the photos. I was about to say yeah right.

She absolutely is pregnant.

She definitely looks pregnant to me.

Look at one of the photos. Her stomach is sticking out massively.

That is a definite bump.

It’s a weighted belt!! She is also wearing ankle weights.

Bloody hell 😅

How dire the cognitive dissonance at play here, the same people who hate Princess Meghan are the first people creating articles about her wondering where she is what she's doing. My goodness she did a number on her detractors by not attending the coronation, those who need their daily Meghan fix are fuming. She's just living her life and it's still hurting people how sad

WheelsUp · 08/05/2023 12:35

I don't think that she looks pregnant. Tbh I thought that it was generally accepted that women shouldn't speculate on other women being pregnant.
She's just announced a new agent so I'd imagine that she will want to quickly commit to any roles offered and a pregnancy could delay her return to work.

Princess Meghan. 😂Why are you calling her that when that's categorically not how she refers to herself?

Yes, only the most dedicated Meghan fans are capable of the mental gymnastics required to take the large headlines and color photographs of King Charles on the front page of every major newspaper in the US on Sunday to a bit of filler on page 46...

🙄😂

Show quote history

I'm not a 'Meghan fan'. In fact, I've posted on here about the contempt I have for her for choosing to perpetuate the outdated institution of monarchy by voluntarily marrying in. The accusation seems to come from a mindset that's never got past arguing whether Take That are better than Boyzone.

There were a couple of small photos and even the only paper with a large front page had the coverage further back. There's nothing today, why would there be? Americans are interested in their own news. There's far more about other more important global news. What matters to you doesn't matter to them. The only thing you seem to have in common is an obsessive interest in some actress.

I see the mean girls are out in force on this thread. We can only speculate what motivates them to repeatedly attack another woman and another mother. It's not in the spirit of MN.

It’s disgusting

so many mean women on this thread - clearly with little else in their lives to do but to be malicious

pinksheetss · 08/05/2023 12:48

When will we learn it's never okay to speculate on a woman being pregnant or not?
Regardless of her being a public figure or not I think it's disgusting commenting on a woman's shape and making assumptions of pregnancy

whynotwhatknot · 08/05/2023 12:49

i dont have children can i have a bonus award

MamoruHisaishi · 08/05/2023 12:53

As someone who isn't a fan of Meghan but neither am I a hater, I really dislike how so many people are attacking her just coz she went on a pap walk and supposedly looks ‘pregnant’. Just like I dislike the bitchy comments when it comes to Catherine, i really wish some of the posters here would stop attacking Meghan just because she decided to get papped. Like who cares if she does? Plenty of celebrities do, and it doesn't make her a mean and horrible person for doing so. No, Harry isn't her victim, so please enough with concerns about how he's being mislead by her. He's a grown man, not a baby. And no, she didn't fake her pregnancies. To accuse her of doing so is just beyond the pale.

Oh she’s the one being petty? You’re obsessing over a hike. Others have called her figure horrendous and skeletal.

odd double standards. mention Kate looking thin and the same people would be up in arms.

Lifeomars · 08/05/2023 13:00

I have no interest in the royal family and give only a cursory look at the headlines about their activities so that I am up to date with what is happening. I am totally bewildered at all the hatred for Harry and Meghan. I've been reading this thread out of curiosity just trying to fathom why people are so invested/obsessed with them. Can anyone on here explain this to me? I am not being sarcastic, I am genuinely puzzled at the rage they seem to induce in the media. The whole purpose of Mail online seems to be to generate and sustain this hatred and other media outlets and pundits also do this. I do not watch GB news (perish the thought!) but I see clips on Twitter and they seem to have whole shows devoted to slagging off Harry and Meghan, do these people do it just to earn a crust. It is just so weird.

MmaRra · 08/05/2023 13:05

It doesn't matter who these sorts of comments are about. They are shameful.

We have all known the sort of people who make them, be it at school, at work, in the pub, gym or street, at the school gates or wherever. Then they breed the next generation and the whole cycle begins again because the apple doesn't fall far from the tree. And here they are on Mumsnet. We see you.

BoomShakALakaa · 08/05/2023 13:08

These pics were taken by Backgrid.

Backgrid don't just show up to get 'pap' shots out of nowhere, they are invited.

Why would you invite paparazzi to take pics of you on a walk with friends when they have previously affected your mental health so badly and your DH blames them for the death of his mother? Hmmmmm!

Wonder why Markle wants to be pictured on a hike (without The Spare) now?

Everything that woman does is orchestrated.

Whaeanui · 08/05/2023 13:10

Backgrid don't just show up to get 'pap' shots out of nowhere, they are invited.

No they certainly don’t because they’re a photo agency that buys photos from independent photographers.

squashyhat · 08/05/2023 07:50

They won an award for deciding to only have two kids? Where's mine for deciding not to have any?

You took the words right out of my mouth. We've got something due us, clearly.

good thing the photographer was up hiking the same route as them ,

Why do you keep saying that?
The photos they buy in are tagged with the original photographer's name. If the photos are tagged Backgrid (which most of these are) then Backgrid have provided a paid, pre-arranged service. It is no secret.

Beenalongwinter · 08/05/2023 13:14

I don't think Meghan looks pregnant, she looks like she is wearing a waist bag containing a boxy item such as a phone .
How on earth can anyone suggest she looks pregnant? Such nonsense.

FabulousFryingpan · 08/05/2023 13:20

I actually thought Carrie Johnson looked a little pregnant when she arrived at the cathedral.
Meghan not though.

Oh, yes, it was Carrie Johnson. I knew I'd seen someone somewhere and had thought the same thing. The A-line top was a bit give-away. But you know what they say, don't even assuming a woman's pregnant, even when the baby's crowning.

dontmakefun · 08/05/2023 13:26

What business is it of ours?

Are you body shaming as she has a slightly rounded tummy (I haven't
seen the photos)!

No wonder there's so many cases of anorexia!!!!

Leave her alone!

CuteCillian · 08/05/2023 13:28

Meghan is such a beautiful woman, I hope she doesn't feel pressured to get that skeletal look some aspire towards.

Whaeanui · 08/05/2023 13:29

Backgrid purchases, edits and puts their watermark on them. They do not take the photos themselves. The photos are from independent photographers, they simply distribute them. It's a photography company. Celebrities often have relationships with paparazzi themselves, and often they are staged. Many marked with Backgrid are staged, but absolutely not all.

diddl · 08/05/2023 13:34

Can't see how anyone thinks that she looks pregnant from those pics!

When the photo is tagged Backgrid, they have sent their own photographers to take them, absolutely. They have various photographers on their books who will upon instruction turn up at the time and place specified by the client to take pictures of the client as we see here. Backgrid will then bill the client and pay the photographer for doing what the client paid for.
Bog standard service industry contract, you know?
