Recently spotted at a TSwift (allegedly), Barbie movie for her birthday, a restaurant, and then hanging out with friends in an Instagram selfie. She looks phenomenal in this photo!

Glad to see she's enjoying her life back home with her family.

If she really wanted attention - she could easily get it. They would only have to put the word out and they’d get invited to every film premiere/theatre opening night /restaurant or celebrity book launch. They would be paid to do endorsements to the level the Kardashians are. If she was fame hungry, she’s gone about it really badly.

@FloofCloud - why do you think they are trying to turn the tide in the UK against them? They don’t seem to have made any effort to get the British public and press on side. More like they’ve ignored the UK altogether beyond the bare minimum they had to do over funeral /coronation.

they might have a big media plan, I don’t think it includes the UK and is taking a long time to start.

@queentim - I'm the one who is being personally attacked here for my opinion!

I think they're trying to turn the tide across the planet - it's not just the UK that's had enough of them!

Agreed. I don't think they care about the UK anymore at all, outside of getting through their court cases.

Good for them!

@queentim - poor attempt at trying to turn a negative into a positive

FloofCloud · 16/08/2023 19:16

Can people stop with the personal attacks at me -- disagree with me, but don't attack and don't gang up on me just because my opinion isn't what you want to hear

Sad not to see her Barbie outfit!!

I know!

I think her black and white stripped dress she wore recently might be the closest Barbie reference we'll get.

@LimeCheesecake

It's very clear, I think that they don't care much about the UK tabloid media ... Harry would not be suing the major tabloids if they did.

This is the issue, that they have shown they are not playing the UK tabloid media game, and some just can't stand it!

Next month is going to be nuts because of Invictus.

What makes the situation worse for the UK media is that there is no reason at all for Meghan in particular to ever return to the UK. The next "big" events in the RF are going to be the deaths of the oldest of Harry's relatives, and there is no way Meghan will come back for those funerals just so that she can be picked over in the tabloid press.

I suspect that's what is at the heart of the rage.

The UK tabloid media is like that abusive ex boyfriend you dumped because he was abusive, but wants you to feel that actually, it is him who doesn't want you, and will remind you of it at every opportunity.

The Coronation stuff was a revelation.

"Don't bother coming Meghan, we don't want you in the UK" very quickly became, "How dare she not come, who does she think she is"!!

She looks gorgeous. If she was full of plastic surgery and fillers she would definitely be starting to look odd by now, but she looks as young and fresh faced as ever.
It's definitely genetics and the melanin! 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

FloofCloud · 16/08/2023 19:47

@ILikeDinosaurs - someone commented earlier who is in the field and disagrees with you.
I think it's quite common knowledge she's had surgery too because of changes in physiology it's easier to spot

It really isn't 😂😂. It's laughable that you can't see the obvious.

FloofCloud · 16/08/2023 18:10

Just had another look - in all honesty she just looks like a woman with make up on, nothing stunning or ethereal or amazing, a woman in a picture that could easily be any bunch a friends anywhere

So just an ordinary woman with make up on then, so not plastic surgery or a face full of fillers?😜Make your mind up!

Jealousy is what's obvious! LOL

thecatsthecats · 16/08/2023 20:34

Some people are very wedded to the idea that Meghan is completely terrible - she has no real friends, having dumped her old ones for new celebrities who aren’t her real friends and have been used by her and Harry. They want to believe H&Ms marriage is on the rocks, that they are miserable now and both are isolated.

What is especially weird about this sort of view is that I don't know any awful people in real life who don't have plenty of friends.

The friendless people I know of aren't twats, they're just quietly unappealing, or damaged, or lack confidence or social skills.

It takes a special kind of mental distortion to think that way.

MrsLeonFarrell · 16/08/2023 20:36

Meghan usually does casual dressing well I think. She looks happy and relaxed here, I know nothing about Botox but it seems that even if she's had some done it looks flattering and natural, rather than the pickled look many older actresses get (Courtney Cox, Nicole Kidman etc)

shockthemonkey · 16/08/2023 21:19

She looks beautiful and happy. I don't know how much is genetics and how much is "help", but it hardly matters really.

The photo is not a selfie, though.

You can see both of her hands!

FloofCloud · 16/08/2023 22:02

@ILikeDinosaurs - ok then after plastic surgery and Botox she looks like a normal person in this photo - like anyone may be friends with, not a 'stunning' or 'beautiful' shell (I won't say person as those who are worldly wise realise beauty and stunning looks are just a mask)... is that clearer?!

FloofCloud · 16/08/2023 22:06

@ILikeDinosaurs - jealousy?!
If a dentist came in and said 'ok she's had her teeth straightened, got veneers and had XYZ else done' would you say 'ha ha ha jealous are you' ... eeerrr, no it's obvious to someone who works in that field - it's not jealousy it's their profession

I don't know anyone who has managed to fall out not only with one family member, but almost all of them ... on both sides of a family ... then behave like they're the victims - not that's beyond weird, that's into a whole different realm

So do J-Lo and Madonna. They don't look like that in real life though.

she does look gorgeous, and she did have plastic surgeries and maybe a few tweaks here and there mainly Botox ,and there is nothing wrong with that.
FYI , I did all these and I don’t look odd , not when you go to the best cosmetic / dermatologists.

FloofCloud · 16/08/2023 23:40

@queenofarles - I think it goes wrong when people start to continue trying to look in their 30's at 60-70+. A nip, tuck, Botox, rhino plasty etc is fine at that end of the spectrum ..
