New Far Four?

The Daily Mail is touting William, Kate, Sophie, and Edward as the new Fab Four. Do you agree with the Daily Mail that they are an influential foursome?

Lovely, well-meaning people for sure but there just isn’t the same glamour without Harry and Meghan

powerrangers · 19/05/2023 14:42

Dull and duller. Seriously they could not have found 4 more bland people

polkadotdalmation · 19/05/2023 14:59

I hate all this Fab Four or fab anything. Its cringy. They're people doing a job.

WinnieTheW0rm · 19/05/2023 15:05

Daily Mail is a pile of wank.

I expect they'll just carry on doing what they always do, whilst the gutter press tries to find a "narrative"

Though I'd like to see more proper coverage of the Duchess of Edinburgh's work against VAWG, FGM and rape as a tool of war.

They look like ridiculous Edwardian cosplayers.

mathanxiety · 19/05/2023 15:08

Fab frocks there...

skullbabe · 19/05/2023 15:12

Love Kate’s dress - wish media would stop this Fab Four obsession.

Nope. I've never seen a drier desert of charisma or style.

🤣🤣🤣🤣 agree 🙌🏻

hopelessbuthopeful · 19/05/2023 18:17

They are all so irrelevant in todays world. The only reason there was so much media frenzy over H &M was because the rest of them are so boring. The press shot themselves in the foot when they drove H & M away so now they have to have someone else in the firing line.

Fascinating illustration of how nutrition, health and growth changes between just one generation.

I can't get this image out of my head. I think they look like those weird porcelain figureines that all the Nans had in their display cabinet in the 80s.

From the Argos catalogue.

This is how the DM start the fawning buildup and then Wham they will take them down. Kate in particular is in the firing line.

I actually think it’ll be Sophie in the firing line next.

The praising of her and Edward as “stepping up” and “becoming more prominent” stinks that’ll soon become “trying to outshine”, “overstepping” and probably something snide about her using her closeness to the late Queen to somehow try and be better than Camilla and Kate. May even include implications that she’s trying to carve out roles for her children etc.

It’s a lot of years since she got stick so I think it’ll be her.

Or like those toilet roll covers!

SoGladofYou · 19/05/2023 19:30

Being very conservative with my clothes, I would normally jump in to defend Kate and Sophie’s dress choices. But oh dear …

SoGladofYou · 19/05/2023 19:30

No wonder they’re not smiling 😟

tigger2022 · 19/05/2023 19:54

I love Sophie but Edward…. not the most charismatic person I’ve ever seen 🙈

CathyorClaire · 19/05/2023 21:13

I've been led to believe one of the arguments for retaining the royals was the promotion of talented British designers. Hard to get on board if those monstrous dresses are an example.

And what is this overdone preoccupation with a 'Fab Four'?

Can't they be trusted to behave unless they're a pack?

VivienneDelacroix · 19/05/2023 21:19

Taperjeanwoman · 19/05/2023 13:20

They look like they're in a cult 😂

I was going to say exactly this! A depressingly stifling cult.
Those hats at identical angles - very very odd.

Harold is only interesting for the endless shooting himself in the foot own goals he indulges in.

I want to look away but can't #slackjawedpeasant.

Well there are certainly four of them. That's about it.

🤣

NoRestForMe · 19/05/2023 22:28

Are wills and Kate really tall or are Sophie and Edward short?

Prince William is 6’3, the tallest member of the RF I think

Yes!!! 😂

Divebar2021 · 20/05/2023 08:40

I’m not wild about the dresses but they’re seriously no worse than the milk maid “Heidi” dresses that have been doing the rounds the last couple of years. Do I think they’re a dynamic foursome? No. I think they’re probably nice people and Sophie is involved in some work around Rape and war and I admire that.
