Imagine using the victims of a school shooting for attention and PR. There seem to be no depths to which this pair will not sink

Or they decided they didn't need to make a public get well statement has any other royal member done it? No they haven't so why would they? Why only them?

They issued a statement denying they had commented on the photoshopping, seeing as they were making a statement about the situation and the controversy, I think most people would have added a kindly get well soon line to that statement.

They are the only family members who have made any statement about it it, none of the others family members have.

They had to make a statement because media and as on here were wrongly accusing them of being the source. So if they want to publicly say they weren't they can do. No need to tag on anything more if that is the issue they are addressing

@Mummyoflittledragon you have asked the exact same question 'I only heard of the Sussex squad from reading on here. Have a lot of people heard about them? twice now on the same thread.

I can only assume you are one of them and are looking for some recognition of your notoriety 😂

Shock Shock Shock

Most incorrect assumption. I asked what I consider to be a genuine and valid question. Once. Others cited my post a couple of time as would be revealed by doing a ‘see all’ for my posts on this thread.

I too have only heard the teem Sussex squad on here. I don't really understand it, are they a known group of people e.g. it's easy to identify one? Are they employed by the Sussex as sometimes I see comments that meghan has sent them to so something....

🤔

I think it’s two very different things. I am sure they have given best wishes privately, but there is no need for them to publicise it. I think it’s wrong you want that. And would be wrong if they wished to do it publicly.

and clearly they do not like what is happening here and them being dragged into Kate’s Illness in a way that they are being seen to leverage it. No matter the bad blood, no one would want that apart from the sickest scum in society,

and they can’t stop that scum posting vile hate on social media in Megan’s name, the stuff on twitter is sickening, it’s clearly a small number of Megan fans posting really sick shit about Kate deserving it due to her made up treatment of Megan, but they can say publicly if something like this was attributed to them by a close source and correct it.

CoffeeCantata · 14/03/2024 07:26

No, I don't think M & H should make a public statement about Catherine. It would just be virtue signalling.

They've burned their bridges with her - and anyone who doubts that should consider how they'd react to a family member accusing them of racism and allowing it to be broadcast across the world. There can't be any rowing back from that.

If they really feel bad, they might send a private message but a public statement would just make them look like total hypocrites.

(For clarity, by VS I mean making a big public hoo-ha about your moral superiority at no personal cost or inconvenience, and claiming a position which doesn't align with your actual behaviour.)

Yes - they really do seem to have some horrendous, deluded and crazy 'supporters'. If we judged people by those who cheer them on, then H & M have got a massive PR problem.

IME these people are petty illiterate too and just keep repeating the same half-baked mantras to drown out any opposing views or evidence they don't like.

Yes it’s aggressive. I read it like a bunch of sickos enjoying a pile on. Likely envious of Kate, and simply leveraging Megan to attack her in a horrendous way, as much as a few people interfered softly, you can’t do much as they will attack.

what social media has taught me is there are some really sick bitter fucks in the world.

This is a composite image too, by the way. it was used to announce Meghan’s second pregnancy. The photographer, Misan Harriman, gave an interview where he explained how he took it remotely during Covid and digitally inserted the tree into the background. It was published by PA Media also (one of the agencies that issued a kill notice on Sunday’s pictures).

So I can’t see this as as big of a deal as some are trying to make it out to be.

Misan Harriman gave an interview did he?

Why would someone fuel this activity with repeated speculation and criticize it at the same time? In your opinion.

He did, yes. Was directly asked:“They weren’t actually under the willow tree but they were lying outside in the meadow, weren’t they, Harry and Meghan, when you took the photograph of them “?

He answered: ”Yeah”.

Backtracking now obviously!

He didn’t answer with “Yeah”, he ignored the question. It’s still available now.

No he didn’t he say that and he isn’t backtracking - it went like this:

Berkeley then asks, “They weren’t actually under a willow tree, but they were lying outside in a meadow, weren’t they—Harry and Meghan? When you took the photograph of them?”
Harriman answers the question indirectly, saying, “They were lost in their love at home in their garden, comfortable, celebrating new joy, new life, with fortitude of hoping for light in life, after such loss that they went through with a miscarriage. So it really was a particularly joyous image to celebrate life itself.”

His explanation is that he is often asked leading questions re H&M and he swerves them.

Misan Harriman uses the same vague language as the Duchess of Sussex does.

AliceOlive · 16/03/2024 10:30

And Omid. Who was apparently never allowed to sit down whilst meeting with Harry and Meghan. I find that quite rude actually, given the power differential.

ArcaneWireless · 16/03/2024 13:05

I’ve not heard that Alice.

I don’t think that would have happened.

I don’t think anyone would be so ungracious/rude.

Omid himself said he never sat with them.

Roussette · 16/03/2024 13:11

What...like he was not allowed to sit down
OR
He hasn't been in the same room as them

There's a big difference!

minou123 · 16/03/2024 13:14

What Omid said was

"I'm not their friend."
"I have never sat down with Meghan privately for interviews, I have never exchanged information with Meghan, I'm not in their private world."

He didn't say he had a meeting with them and wasn't allowed to sit down. 😁

Haha I thought so!

This is how rumours start! Next minute people will be believing that whenever he was in their company he had to be stood up while they were sat down!

ArcaneWireless · 16/03/2024 13:34

It is an interesting turn of phrase though - ‘I’ve never exchanged information’ doesn’t say he wasn’t given any juicy bits.

Also the never sat down privately or not in their private world.

Not just ‘I’ve never sat down with Meghan for interviews’ or ‘I’m not in their world^.

Plain speaking generally gives no reason to mistrust. Hinting at stuff or flowery sentences have not done OS or the Sussexes any favours.-
