The sudden unusual turn on Princess Kate

[Whatt]

Today, I wanted to share something thought-provoking that has caught my attention recently - a noticeable change in the way the media portrays Kate Middleton.

Some publications that previously showed favor towards Kate (DM cough, cough) have started publishing stories that present her in a more critical light. It's an interesting shift.

Firstly, there's a story circulating about an encounter between Kate and a convicted murderer at a charity event. Additionally, there's talk of the taxpayer potentially providing support for her family's struggling business. This raises questions about the circumstances surrounding their business venture and the implications it may have for public funds.

What's intriguing is the parallel being drawn between Kate's current media treatment and the scrutiny faced by Meghan Markle in the past. It's worth discussing whether there's a connection or simply a coincidence.

Furthermore, there's some buzz on Twitter suggesting that Kate may have unintentionally upstaged the King during the Chelsea Flower Show. While it may seem like harmless gossip, it's interesting to consider the impact of such events on the monarchy's reputation. Some even speculate that Camilla might have been involved in the leak of these stories, adding an extra layer to the intrigue.

Taking a step back, it's worth pondering whether the monarchy should be concerned about being upstaged in this day and age. Are we witnessing a shift in priorities and expectations?

Oh yes the old ‘ letter of the law’ defence

Im well aware of how a limited company differs from personal debt
I’m also aware how justice differs from the law

Only a matter of weeks ago the taxpayer paid 100 000 000+ for Charles and Camilla to be anointed and the country symbolically‘given’ to them to protect

The middletons have been presented to us as Willy’s quasi parents . Suppliers would have felt comfortable that they would have been paid due to the close links with the ‘royals’

Will they sell their houses and downsize to repay ?

moral justice would say so - not the letter of the law though
Partying it up in the Middle East while their company collapses and on their tax payer funded jet - you can’t talk your way out bad PR like that .
Unless of course the ‘royals’ are keen to distance themselves from all this mess . They know the score being the ultimate grifters themselves

@warblingwater i was going to say the same thing. This is either in preparation for the divorce and Will’s new wife or to deflect from the newspaper trial saying that leaks about Harry came from the royals themselves

And those very few who do are rightly called out.

Two wrongs don't make a right.

Funnily enough, last week I saw a Facebook article shared about Kate and something to do with a charity she was working with, I think it was food banks. All the comments were hateful, about how she should sell hers and the queen's wardrobes of expensive clothes if she really cared about helping the disadvantaged. It's the first time I've ever seen negative opinion en masse about her. Sounds like she is about to be made the scapegoat for something.

Not been on twitter or certain Sussex-supporting sites for a while, then? There’s large areas of the internet where she can’t blink without being criticised for it . 🤣

Genuine lol at this. They did absolutely nothing improper….the scoundrels! 🤣🤣

(Do you ever listen to yourself?)

Megan's lying low so they need some other woman to pick on and criticise.

The criticism doesn't seem to be coming from a wide range of sources though, does it? 😉As far as I can see, the wedding in Jordan was quite a big PR success which encourages the gradual transition from senior royals to King and Queen and proves that they can maintain longstanding friendships with other important royal families who see them as equals.

@Serenster

happy for you that you got a laugh

The suppliers left unpaid aren’t laughing

You claim to be a lawyer - you should know the first rule - that law and justice are not the same thing- as can be seen here

If only there was a scandal that would bankrupt and sink the lot of them!

Unbelievably petty and scraping the barrel to criticise Kates parents who went bankrupt like so many other companies due to Covid. I'm sure they found it so funny that a business they had built up crumbled under financial pressures and they had to let go of long standing staff to redundancy, and were unable to pay creditors who had also been valued suppliers. Yea, like people are so happy to lose their business and livelihood. Maybe the people here who are taking such sick joy out of others misfortune, need to look in the mirror.

Oh yes the old ' letter of the law' defence

The corporate veil isn't a technicality or a loophole, it's the fundamental principle of company law.

They probably aren't thrilled about a £20k unpaid bill, but ultimately bad debts are a part of business. If that debt is a large part of the supplier's income then their real problem is that they have just lost one of their most valuable customers.

Those suppliers that are limited companies are probably seriously worried about your idea that if their own businesses then fail then their own houses and personal assets should be on the line. Especially if the criteria for losing their house will now include "knowing someone famous".

Please don't refer to other posters posts as petty and scraping the barrel. Its actually about the fact a wealthy family who are also extended family members of the royal family, have left people with far less than them with huge losses from their debts, while they remain extremely wealthy with all their children now independently wealthy also. They retired so its not their livelihood either. Some of the staff have been retained by the buyer. They have also borrowed form us, the tax payer, again while they remain wealthy. Its absolutely fair and reasonable to discuss this. There is always so much conversation on what Meghan cost the tax payers, so fairs fair.

The criteria some believe, should just be about, can they afford to cover the debts their company accrued. The middleltons have more than enough to cover the debts and remain in their huge home. While it may be legal, plenty of legal things are discussed online and in life by people who do not agree that should be the case.

So this is what it is really about? Not the thousands and thousands of business people who have done this for over years and years without bothering you.

@Stalkedbyzombies , apparently.

No, I am responding to the poster. I take great issue with anyone in their position taking covid loans and especially leaving debt when they are wealthy. I am merely pointing out that nobody should take issue with the criticism because its something that happens here.

No it is not, thank you very much.

OH not another one . Thanks for spotting

So you are taking a position just to be annoying?

@AliceOlive 🤣

No. I'm not sure how you got that form the comment quoted.

I miss the Megxidous already. Where did they go? Why did they come back?

I get that you miss your echo chamber but this is relentless now.

There's a sweet toothed poster who probably needs to have a cup of tea - taking this all well too personally ....
