The royal family

See? Can't mention anything to do with royals without unhinged rantings from all these different usernames about how bad and evil Meghan is, along with the usual lies.

These people are unwell.

It's observations, not unhinged ranting! Just because you don't see what other people see (most of the rest of the planet!) doesn't make it unhinged or ranting 🙄

Bet the royal family is happy that they’ve sold “family man Wills” so well to their fans. In the rest of the world he’s been reported as the prince of pegging who has had numerous affairs. Vanilla must be relieved she’s not the black sheep any more and Harry and megs have stepped in to fill the “baddie” vacuum and manufacture drama that casts the other royals in a good light.

MissAnneLister · 24/07/2023 12:50

Yelling nasty names and insults comes across as pretty unhinged. Can you not make your point without just reciting insults?

askmeonemoretime · 24/07/2023 12:54

Immature prat, lacks intelligence, and nasty all comes across as pretty awful things to say about a stranger.

What a thoroughly nasty and spiteful post. Reported.

Harry is a truly nasty person so I wouldn’t be surprised if he did say those things. William has a lovely wife with a respectable and dedicated family, and Harry is jealous. First because he didn’t have anyone, and later because his awful wife has alienated all of her family and his.

Speak your mind why don't you 😮
Just your opinion thank goodness

Hear hear!

Every time I think I've heard all variables of all insults, there's more!

But it is ranting!

I and many others don't come out with strings of insults on and on about others, it looks like massive unhinged rantings!

Yet it's ok to say this sort of thing and worse X1000 about another couple.

Weefreetiffany · 24/07/2023 13:09

@TeaMistress its the truth though. You don’t have to like it, but the foreign press doesn’t have the same kind of gag orders the U.K. press has regarding the royals. And people who have access to foreign press hear both sides. It’s not what you want to hear, but that’s the strategy at play. Think about it, there’s always a bad royal to compare and contrast the hero royal. Now QE2 is gone Charles and Camilla are being reframed as lovely and popular against the previous opinions of them. It’s good kate and wills and bad Harry and Megs. Over hearsay and narrative spin. It’s quite naive to think there’s no politicking at play.

No it's not OK. Nobody should be saying spiteful and disgusting things about other people.

Blinkinbloodyhayfever · 24/07/2023 13:11

Now pre THE Oprah interview I would have dismissed this as speculation, but we now know that rumours about PH and his opinions on families do tend to be true.

Don't ask me to repeat some of the stuff I've read. It's worse and far far more frequent

I would recommend that you not repeat what amounts to spiteful and salacious gossip. Its not just disgusting. Its defamatory. There is absolutely no proof of what you are saying. It absolutely isn't ok to say vile spiteful things about people and then try to justify it by saying that because there are scurrilous rumours it somehow makes it ok to then repeat nasty gossip as fact.

Your opinion that something is spiteful or salacious does not make it so. For consistency, perhaps don’t believe or repeat what you read in the U.K. gutter press either? Or is it foreign bad/ U.K. good in your world too? What is the OP doing other than repeating salacious gossip as fact? If it’s about someone you don’t like it’s facts but about someone you do like it’s gossip? Isn’t that a bit hypocritical? Please take a breath and get some perspective.

Bouledeneige · 24/07/2023 13:40

Gosh this got out of hand fast....

MissAnneLister · 24/07/2023 13:47

A thread repeating goady tabloid gossip (implying Harry gave a nasty quote about the Middletons when it's a quote from someone with no connection to Harry), with the intention of being the 189,379th H&M bashing thread this year, was never exactly in hand.

I don't need to take a breath thank you and I dont lack perspective. You shouldn't repeat scurrilous gossip as fact no matter where it comes from. I don't believe I've mentioned the UK press as opposed to the foreign press nor have I made any comparisons between the two in terms of the amount of muck raking gossip they both churn out. I am perfectly capable of critical thinking and reasoning and don't appreciate the insinuation that I am a hypocrite. That's a very unpleasant thing to say about someone you don't know.

But it is not the truth though.

Also there is no gag order on the UK press. If there was an injunction then Giles Coren couldn't have written an article in the Times about that rumor where he says it was fake news. You find article on the internet. Only thing that William did is to instruct his lawyers to sent a letter where they said it wasn't true and that he would sue (Any person would have done the same).

You want it to be true. Or you pretend it to be true so that you can spread it. (Not to mention that you are involving a married private woman who has three small children who are old enough to read it on the internet. They don't deserve that.)

Hell you are repeating gossip (and believing it, how dumb can you be) from an American instagram account who does blind gossip because she otherwise will get sued if she names names. (She is now spreading that Meghan and Harry are living apart)

Of course tabloids in other countries were writing stories about it. It was going around on social media. Made trending by haters. That doesn't mean it is true. It was just repeating gossip from social media. Nothing more.

That rumor is now FOUR years old. And it is kept alive by haters. They even agree when they are going to try and let it trend on social media.

Not one newspaper, not even anti monarchy paper like guardian has ever written a word about that so called affair. And they would be the first to do so.

They did write articles about Charles, Diana, Camilla, Fergie etc. when they had their scandals. And they all would do it in a heartbeat to William if they could. They only care about money. And selling their newspapers.

Hmm Tina Brown, once a quite successful journalist, reduced to this generic twaddle and paper can’t even supply a lead photo that’s relatively recent

We can all read the foreign press if we want to.

I think after listening to Charles and Diana's private phone calls, seeing multiple articles and documentaries scouring through Diana's and Charles' marriage, watching the half fanciful sold as full factual The Crown on telly, reading all sorts of books about their personal lives, including Harry's, that's a pretty lousy gag order. 😂

Weefreetiffany · 24/07/2023 14:08

The only thing that is true is the manipulation of stories to make certain royals look good and others look bad in the news comics. And some are barely discussed at all despite being totally shameful (ahem Andrew).

The actual details/ truth we will never know, but there’s a hell of a lot of people who take it all at face value and blindly fight for their fav or insult the one they dislike the most. Or get rung out claiming a faux moral high ground…(which begs the question why read these kinds of threads?) I literally couldn’t care less about them, but if you don’t think that there are injunctions against speaking about injunctions that cover tracks and limit damage then you are very naive.

Anyone can get an injunction and frequently do. If you’d ever worked in an international news org that has offices across the globe and spent a fun afternoon contacting your colleagues in New York or some such place and betting with your local colleagues who you will get to spill the beans if sworn to secrecy about the latest “celeb” injunction that were not supposed to know about in the U.K… but you don’t want to hear about that. It’s just yah! Boo! Politics and gossip after all.
