Yet another piece! What are they trying to tell us without telling us?
Rose went to Stowe so presumably had a knowledge of Wills inner circle growing up.. But why all the articles!

Lady Rose Hanbury: Kate’s party-loving close friend with a Saltburn-esque upbringing

While the Marchioness of Cholmondeley is one of Kate Middleton’s best-known associates, they couldn’t be less alike. Maddy Mussen reports on the flamboyant life of her party-loving lookalike

It often feels like this these days.

I think the edited Mothers Day photo in which the Princess of Wales is not wearing her wedding ring might be of more significance than most people realise or has been commented on.

Somethings going on, as time passes, the rumour mill gets more and more crazy and still there's no sign of her. If everything was absolutely fine between them then I'm sure some on the day footage of the two of them together looking happy to be in each others company would be forthcoming. It hasn't been, the comments from the Princess admitting to editing the image are brief and to the point (but somehow I suspect more telling than we realise right now) I'm beginning to wonder if she really had major surgery or if that was just to try and throw people off the scent and she actually decided she'd had enough of being married to him right after Christmas? I think the Press are piling on the pressure and it's probably only a matter of time before we all find out what is really going on.

It's her birthday tomorrow 🍾 . Harry was right about this lot. Thank God he and Megan are safe out of it.

Yes apparently so. Kate can't be discussed ever in a negative way. Yet there's a thread right now criticising Meghan about her website being shit or whatever. They haven't even seen anything or what it's about. Apparently that's ok, just say nothing negative about W+K.

It's really weird timing to be launching a website - it's almost as if the want to be overshadowed.

Or would the date have been set a while ago, and impossible to alter?

eise · 14/03/2024 22:15

@CrotchetyQuaver I think people know or are otherwise being intentionally obtuse. IF Kate edited the photo, she did it badly to attract attention to it and the ringless finger!

If those articles are a soft launch, I wonder if people would like her as a Queen or if she would be initially rejected like Camilla.

Highly likely Meghan has products to launch for her brand, all these things would have been well thought out and under production for months and probably sent to stockists etc by now. How would this have anything to do with whatever Kate's doing?

Even if Kate was lovely to Meghan and they were in touch, I highly doubt Kate would expect Meghan to stop everything she's doing to put food on the table for her children because Kate's suddenly unwell or possibly having marital problems.

I was thinking her publicists were worried it wouldn’t get enough press on it’s own. The target market is going to be US. We don’t froth as much over here.

Is “High Meghan” an accident?

eise · 14/03/2024 22:38

I doubt the target market would be people on this forum to be fair. She's definitely not desperate.

AliceOlive · 14/03/2024 22:40

You wrote that she needed to put food on the table?

I didn't know about the time lines in this sector - which is why I asked.

I think you've made a whole heap of unwarranted assumptions about why I asked.

But the answer was there - ie that the date would have been set and not something that can be altered - so thank you for that

It's nearly like a cry for help... The missing rings are like an S.O.S.. There is definitely significance

You and others keep repeating this and though it were fact yet I’ve seen zero actual evidence about Rose Hanbury or anything else. You just seem to wish it to be true. Why?

LoreleiG · 14/03/2024 23:53

FWIW Giles Coren, who did not make up the rumour but accidentally launched it globally said only in October:
“I didn’t make up a lie”.
“Don’t be silly”.
“It was a stupid joke HOW IN THE WORLD could I possibly know anything about the private life of at the royal family!!”
“You’re really make yourself look so so silly pretending to think I am some sort of royal source”.
“I’ve retracted it twice! It was SATIRE!”

StickyWickets · 15/03/2024 00:36

I think the word satire is going to go over a lot of heads. Without wanting to be disrespectful, educational standards around the world are not what they used to be

pantsalot · 15/03/2024 05:53

That may well be @StickyWickets but the rumour was out there before he 'joked' about it.

I'm listening to an interesting podcast that starts by looking at internet traffic around the Depp/Heard case. I'm only on episode four but it delves in further and looks at other cases (mainly US) and says that there are hundred of thousands of social media post's by 'bots' being deployed to unsettle and harm our democracy. Targeting government, legal decisions etc.

Without starting another conspiracy it makes sense that this could be happening - it would be a societal earthquake for the monarchy to be given its marching orders. Even greater than Brexit. Anyway, it crossed my mind that there could be a link when reading the rumours surrounding Kate.

Well you issued the link in case people wanted to join the waiting list so you must have thought she was desperate for some of us to purchase her jam

I don't think Meghan is targeting Mumsnet although there are some people who like her on this forum

Garlicking · 15/03/2024 07:21

Well, I clicked the link from a PP about royal ex-partners. I know little about our overlords, so it was a fun read. It turns out that William's "one that got away" isn't Hanbury, it's somebody called Jessica Craig who lives in Kenya. And, unlike the Hanbury story, it seems Kate does have a problem with Craig.

Better gossip? Who knows!

Jecca Craig also looks similar to Kate, he has a type!

However I remember reading he had fallen head over heels with Isabella Calthorpe (Cressida's sister & Sam Brandon's wife) but it was totally unrequited, she had no interest!

Kicking myself here for not thinking of bots, that totally fits in with my thought process on this matter.

It does feel as if someone is trying to cause problems

Bots didn’t release a fake photo missing a wedding ring did they? That was KP.

Bots didn’t pull out of a memorial
Nor did they instruct the couple to look so distant in the car.

This is coming from Kate and/or William not bots!

Oh for goodness sake the pictures of Rose Hanbury and all the stupid theories that Catherine is in a coma etc etc you are being really obtuse

And as for the bloody ring I stopped wearing mine for years as it was too tight
