Absolutely @Mymilkshakebringsallthepapstomycar “None of us know” anything about Harry and Meghan despite books in their own words, countless interviews, magazine articles, court cases and their mouthpiece Scobie etc. yet these same posters claim they know the thoughts and actions of members of the RF who, with regards to H&M have held their own counsel, it’s comical really.

None of us know anything about the verbally incontinent Sussexes who lay their dreary lives out for all to see

😂
That doesn't sound heavily biased at all lol
sarcasm
Interesting use of loaded adjectives there for someone who apparently doesn't care 😂

Dear Meg and assistants, If you are reading this, please send me some jam. I have a bowl of lemons AND a stunt pineapple for an IG shoot. I can also put a cheeky lime on a jaunty angle next to the lemons, adding a pop of colour. Don’t have a dog, so no dog’s arse in the photo, but I reckon the pineapple will be cute enough and we can giggle like school girls whilst sharing meditation tips.
Cheers.

Whereas you are scrupulously neutral of course🙄Where have I sad I don't care? You do like applying words to people they haven't said, don't you.

That's rich, coming from you, who are defending every nefarious activity on the part of these two grifters. Are you really that gullible?

Exactly! We DO know, because they have told us!

There's a whiff of the MLM nightmare mum in the school playground about it all. Beware of the fucker who wants you to hold a Stella & Dot party and won't leave you alone.

This is one of the most accurate posts I've seen summing it all up. That's exactly what it looks like!

Maybe they are anticipating filming the drama between. M & the CEO.

Or they could have made a Netflix programme like The Apprentice where the prize was becoming CEO of ARO. The Daily Mail would promote this programme like crazy, especially if the judges were the Sussexes.

So you're casting them in the Donald Trump role? Grin

(remember the US version was the original, and that's where they are now, so that's the version that matters)

MaturingCheeseball · 28/04/2024 09:50

I honestly think a fly-on-the-wall “Meghan of Montecito - and This One” has the best chance (or the only chance) of success for them. I really wouldn’t be that surprised if it comes to pass.

Mylovelygreendress · 28/04/2024 09:58

Has anyone seen an article claiming that Kevin Costner returned his jam gift ?

I agree that something like this could be a ratings success, and is probably the type of content, with a bit of royal prestige, that Netflix was expecting when they signed them up.

The 'royal prestige' is obviously gone. Also, I think Meghan is too much of a 'control freak' to allow a Duchess reality show. The 'documentary' and now this cooking show aren't even being filmed in their own home. They both take themselves way too seriously for their own good.

Haha, love it. I wouldn't be surprised either if we eventually see something like this, they would probably need to rehash your great suggestion of a title to include Princess, Prince, their grandfather and This One's grandmother.

The comments and take down on it would be comedy gold.

Is 'How do you know?' the new 'Why do you care?'

I'm seeing a mental card index here. 'Hm, have used you don't know them! a few times and it's not the clincher I thought it was, why do you care? is sounding a bit overdone and can be turned back on me, let's try how do you know? and really put them on the back foot.'

Is it just me or would Kevin Costner be an unusual choice of recipient 🙄

An accurate list @MrsDanversGlidesAgain

At what stage do they go full whataboutery do you think?

Mymilkshakebringsallthepapstomycar · 28/04/2024 10:57

I find it hard to believe they would have the tone deafness to send their lemons to Kevin Costner after their cringeworthy behaviour completely overshadowed that event. It is an interesting thought, though. It hadn't occurred to me that some of these baskets may have been sent back from people not wishing to be drawn in. I wonder whether Melissa McCarthy got one, or will get one now she's stood up for her dear friend and her feminist enterprise of jam making.

Didn't he recently get divorced, perhaps she's got her eyes on him as he's a huge step up from Hazza in the money and Hollywood greats

Of course the implication is that the reason people 'know' whatever they're supposedly claiming to know is because they were 'fed' it by the 'rags'.

It always comes back to that.

Did Oprah get a jar of jam?

Good question.
