Harry and Meghan are so petty and bitter

They knew that announcing Meghan's new venture would be big news. So they dropped it 45 minutes before William was due to speak yesterday evening. At an awards ceremony dedicated to harry and William's mother's memory.

But that wasn't good enough. Oh no. They then announced the winner of their own awards. While the Diana awards were still going on and Prince William was handing out prizes.

Is there no level this petty, bitter couple won't sink to?!

She is applying for her trademark status under the company name of Mama Knows Best LLC based on Delaware .

Definitely mommy issues.

Broken away?

Slap my arse and call me Ma’am.

I'd say more like stuck like sh*t to a blanket than broken away!

That's ridiculous.

Harry and Meghan announce their own activities and entirely separate awards, separately from the BRF.

To say this was petty is ridiculous. Harry himself participated in the Diana awards, why would he want to purposefully take the attention off his mother's awards.

If it wasn't a coincidence then they probably considered that, shock horror, they can do two things on the same date, and indeed they do not have to coordinate their diaries with the BRF because they aren't working royals.

Can you compute people can do two things on the same date? Can you further compute different people can do different things on the same date and it doesn't mean anything? It's not that hard.

@PurplePansy05 this!!

Meghan and Harry are doing their own thing. Projects planned months in advance... I expect they wouldn't even have visibility of Williams schedule.

I'm very interested in the launch of Meghans interior company as I love her style and think this is what she will be excellent at.

BemusedAmerican · 15/03/2024 22:55

She filed for the trademark in January 2024.

MarmaladeMarkle · 15/03/2024 22:59

Meghan's interior company:

Laptop stand = 8 unsold copies of The Bench
Executive Desk = sheet of mdf supported by 32 unsold copies of The Bench
Wallpaper = pages torn from hundreds of unsold copies of The Bench

BemusedAmerican · 15/03/2024 23:03

She may get trademark pushback from American Riviera Bank since they are already using the name.

As funny as you are, you seem very invested in this!

Not super interested but surely, you don't believe this. They knew ( Harry had the zoom all sorted. It's an award in his mothers name. ) Stop being silly.

BemusedAmerican · 16/03/2024 01:29

@AliceOlive The textiles filing was on Feb 2, 2024. On March 9th they filed for food products. The search info is at uspto.gov .

Hillcrest2022 · 16/03/2024 01:37

I'm stunned at how mean people are being

Meghan has launched a new business and good for her. Why tear that down? Some of us are actually interested in it and like her asthetic and we would purchase from her website.

Hillcrest2022 · 16/03/2024 01:45

This is a woman you have never met. She's trying to make an income for her family. Shouldn't women support each other? She's not harming you... why would you wish bad luck for her?

BemusedAmerican · 16/03/2024 02:00

No one has wished her bad luck. People have even suggested products.

I’m just surprised it was so recent. I feel like they are not getting great legal/accounting help with these ventures.

I do wish them luck with it. It’s what I always thought Meghan would enjoy doing and do well.

God I'm so bored of the Royal Fuckups. Sorry I mean family!

I honestly can't get my head around why anyone would 'hate' Harry and Meghan or find them 'despicable'.

Why? What have they done that is so bad? They left the firm and went to build their own live. They are public figures so I get that some people may not like them but the level of hate that they get? I don't understand it.

Really? Is that all they did? No endless bashing of their families? Whinging about their privileged life? Even during the Covid crisis and subsequent war, it was all about how unfair everyone was/is towards them.

In my opinion, I think it's more dislike than hate to be honest. A lot of what they've done is in poor taste, including monetizing their titles when apparently they wanted nothing to do with the RF.

Freakinfraser · 16/03/2024 06:54

I agree the issue is harry and Megan’s behaviour is perceived as distasteful and quite unacceptable by most people. I understand a small minority are ok with it, or take their word for it and beleive it justified.

the issue is the behaviour continues. Using the night of the Diana awards and William’s speech to launch Megan’s website and archewell is clearly a deliberate ploy, to help give publicity to it, and it’s just more unpleasant cynical self serving stuff.

I honestly think the monarchy is in trouble. Serious trouble. Charles is clearly disappearing from public view, and is in very difficult cancer treatment sadly. Camilla, god love her, can be Charles’s queen, his consort, but she she can’t be the queen queen,like Elizabeth was, going solo, and the whole. Kate thing has been handled terribly .

I understand there is there is a very good reason Kate is out, and hope she is making a full recovery, but it’s not been handled well, with what seems like lying and misleading the public. He has hardly covered himself in glory as future king or shown leadership. No one needs to issue images or give medical info , but straight out lying and being caught at it, is very poor.

then you take the utter mess and constant distasteful noise that is Harry and Megan, the whole thing is fairly disastrous.

I was never remotely interested in the royals, but now I’m like wtf will they all do next. Charles and Camilla seem the only ones who are handing the whole thing with dignity, but even they are clearly downplaying stuff to the public and Charles is coming across as weak when his sons are concerned. Ie both Harry and William’s behaviour right now isn’t edifying, and even though William’s is likely as he is trying to protect his wife, the optics are really bad.

Isn't it amazing that the press appears to know everything about H&M and all the private calls and angry chats and everything, yet K disappeared for weeks and nobody knew anything. Its almost like every single thing in the papers is absolute made up garbage for over invested idiots to lap up. If you care about this on any level then you are weird. Very very weird. Time to grow up.

I’m not really sure who pissed on your cornflakes this morning, or why you woke up and decided to go on line and attack, but ok.

thr reason folks know more about Megan and Harry is due to them having a leaky ship and using people like Scobie to be their mouthpiece. People only know what is leaked from their camp.

for Kate, that’s been kept incredibly private, only a handful of very close people know what’s wrong with Kate, not even the staff are aware, hence why leaks have been very limited, I think the most we have seen is she was first operated on late dec and there were complications, or that Charles is not happy about the photo fiasco. Both things wider staff would likely know. Everything else is being kept to people who are clearly very trustworthy hence why no leaks on exactly what has happened to Kate.

Oh give over, they don’t owe the Royal Family anything. They didn’t once stick up for them and were quite happy to throw them under the bus on multiple occasions.

Youre just reading and believing the trash click bait again. Who cares. The RF are pretty much over now. They let their best shot at survival go and now Charles is out of action, nobody really cares about what Camilla is up to and Wills is doing the disappearing act.

Oh well at least there’s still Uncle Andrew. I get H&M are so pleased to have broken away. Shame as things would have been so different for the RF right now if they’d embraced them.

The timings are undeniable. I don't need to "believe" anything.

And this was a Spencer family event, to honour Diana. Not a Royal Family event.

Who would have ever thought, a Royal hanging out with a Kardashian hanger on.. Looks like Harry's late attendance at the Princess Diana Awards was because his ski trip was his priority and didn't care about keeping people waiting for him to show up.

Dollychopsporkchops · 16/03/2024 07:56

@35965a Op have a great big blubber since you’re so offended.

Considering the way the BRF have treated them, If I was H&M I personally wouldn’t have a single ounce of consideration for them. They’ve been chased out and bullied incessantly and they’re not working royals. To the British public like it or lump it but they’re going to do what they’re going to do. Even using their royal title…I know that a painful one for you guys to swallow 🤣

WatchOutMissMarpleIsAbout · 16/03/2024 08:45

Well they weren’t chased out as they wanted half in half out. Told no then flounced.

But tbh I don’t blame them for coordinating their ventures with RF things. They want maximum publicity so hook up to RF announcements - I’d do the same as them if I wanted to launch stuff.

Did the family deserve the bashing? We're they whinging or just saying how it is? Are people unfair towards them? Have they monetized their titles or are their titles just 'there'.

It's all a matter of perspective and we all have different opinions which doesn't make us right or wrong about their situation.

I still can't understand why people dislike them so much. They don't affect my life at all so I can't get myself worked up about them.

EasternEcho · 16/03/2024 09:14

@Fannyfiggs They affect me even less as I am not from or in the UK. But I can definitely understand why they incite dislike in so many people. As for whether families deserve bashing or their whinging is valid, years and years of repetition of the same old same old in every possible media to make money off it will be perceived as crass by many. I'm fairly certain that most of us have some sort of gripe with our families, but don't publicly badmouth them at every possible opportunity. And that's my opinion.
