Part 2 of a nice, unproblematic thread to discuss some of the fab outfits from the Duchess of Sussex, and some of the many great causes she (and Harry) and Archewell supports.

How strange that Harry would be invited to the opening of a Warrior Fitness Centre by the Navy Seals Foundation Chief Exec.

Potentially because H&M's buddy, the biggest donor to the Navy Seals Foundation, suggested it to them?

Not saying that is the case, but it is certainly another angle.

That wasn't the point of my post you quoted!

Ha ha how funny I knew you were going to say that @Roussette . Yes, I think I did comment on that thread you are talking about and if I remember correctly I said something along the lines of “I like the way Kate ignored him and carried on her conversation” 😂

He's a figure of ridicule whichever country he is trying to be a VIP in due to his hypocrisy and petulance

How strange that Harry would be invited to the opening of a Warrior Fitness Centre by the Navy Seals Foundation Chief Exec, given he's a figure of ridicule! I would've thought they would ask someone else to be there if so. Perhaps they don't know Grin

Roussette, you are right, I didn't quote the full text.

This was my reply to that post.

I watched the footage and no she didn't ignore him. She moved on as he wanted

SgtJuneAckland · 10/11/2023 08:46

I'm all for a positive thread, but it genuinely bewilders me that people think Harry and William are objectively attractive men!
I wish h&m would set up a background business/foundation stay out of the public eye with their lovely children and let everything die down. They could have a come back if they so wished in a few years. It would give them a better opportunity to live without the media scrutiny

“Recollections may vary”

Thread's still there😉

@pinkmont - I wouldn't be in the least bit surprised, it's all 'you scratch my back and I'll scratch yours' in Hollywood (and likely in Windsor too😊).

pilates · 10/11/2023 08:53

@Roussette I am not going to split hairs with you on that. I was responding to the fact that you automatically presumed I didn’t saying anything on that thread. Both were rude imo.

Mylovelygreendress · 10/11/2023 09:03

Roussette · 10/11/2023 08:01

Thank you pinkmont I don't recall the criticism on here but that doesn't mean to say there wasn't any, I just can't remember

There was criticism at the time . Pretty sure Catherine had a quiet word afterwards !

LadyMuckingabout · 10/11/2023 09:18

WME arranged their attendance at the Navy Seals thing.

Interesting about Ken Griffin and the Telegraph.

One thing M&H have done is opened my eyes to what goes on behind the scenes with agents/PR/backscratching. I had never heard of “pap walks” before, and now I’m cynical about anyone’s public appearance.

The royals, for all their many faults, receive an invitation to a fish factory centenary in Grimsby two years in advance. No money or favours come into it.

beatrix1234 · 10/11/2023 09:23

25 pages of a 2nd thread. The obsession of the English people with Meghan is really something, (only comparable to Katie Price). Had this been a foreign man married to an English princess then pulled a middle finger to the establishment and sod off he wouldn’t have gotten a third of the attention. It’s the fact that a woman did it is what most fascinates people. The misogyny is alive n kicking.

pilates · 10/11/2023 09:41

I think this has the potential to derail so I won’t respond but it has nothing to do with misogyny.

Samcro · 10/11/2023 10:03

maybe we should go and derail the echo chamber thread about Kate.

or be grown up and not.
why can't there be one thread on here that is not full of shit bashing.

Agreed, it needs to stop on this one and the Earthshot, both are absolutely awful to Meghan and William at the moment!

Flowerybeing · 10/11/2023 10:24

I get that some individuals who are quite syncopathic in the Kate thread don't like Meghan and have made it their life's mission to shout it from the rooftops but it's getting pathetic . The same arguments, M is controlling H, WME, why don't they just go away? The same thing over and over? Isn't it exhausting?

Anyways, staying on topic, Meghan looked gorgeous in that suit, loved the hair. I'm glad to see them doing good things and continuing to work with the military/ veterans.

I have posted on the earth shot, that thread is different as its about Earth shot. would be the same if there was a thread about H&M project. William lectures on climate change. so people will comment on that.

@Samcro look again at that thread - it’s derailed away from ES and into Middle East politics.

@Samcro look again at that thread - it’s derailed away from ES and into Middle East politics.

Its a thread about William and one of his projects, its not a derailment to talk about his work ethic, or lack of, or the things he has promised to do. Its not remotely talking about Middle East politics, just his claims to solve it. This thread is meant to be about what Meghan wears, like the Kate thread. One threads topic is being respected, and one isn't.

Why don't you take your thoughts to that thread? There is absolutely no converstaion about the current conflict going on. His work ethic and out of touch attitude is what is being mocked.

I have to say it's quite fascinating to watch M&H carrying on doing their thang, seemingly oblivious to the raging hatred towards them in a (very) small part of the world, mostly Britain and the British/US/Murdoch tabloid press. It's even more fascinating to see how well received M&H are wherever they go, from Invictus to the Katy Perry concert (where people stood up and started cheering when they walked in) to events like this.

M&H haters truly live in a parallel echo-chamber universe.

Edited

If this is just a feel good thread about fashion, maybe don’t post comments like this and not expect a response.

Excuse me.... I did not mock him. Two posters (you were one I think?) said it was made up that he had ever said he was going to bring peace to the ME. I posted a link to show that it wasn't made up and offered other links if anyone wanted them.

There was no mocking. I was correcting a false statement, that is all.

Ineedwinenow · 10/11/2023 11:48

I believe the Earthshot was originally started to talk about the Nominees and the event itself, yes it is Williams project so maybe it might be better to start another thread about him as person and the same with Meghan then everyone can argue about them both as much as they want but unfortunately this thread and Earthshot haven’t spoken about the actual reasons of the thread for a few pages now ☹️

I agree. Neither of them is handsome. They must have other qualities I suppose.

PW is using it as a platform, so his hypocrisy will be used on a thread about Earth shot.

this thread is supposed to be about clothes

Ineedwinenow · 10/11/2023 12:01

Yes i totally agree, it is supposed to be about clothes and only clothes 👍 and Earthshot shouldn’t be a bashing thread about William 🤷‍♀️ I’m not even sure what page Earthshot and its nominees itself was last mentioned ??

I genuinely feel so sorry for both couples if they ever read MN
