Part 5 of (mostly ๐Ÿ˜‚) drama-free and positive threads, delving into all things Meghan and Harry. Whether itโ€™s the causes they support, their business initiatives, or Meghanโ€™s fashion choices (Harryโ€™s too, on occasion ๐Ÿ˜‰), thereโ€™s plenty to discuss. Just a pro-tip - that there may be use of MLE terms and discussions of dupes - you might want to exit stage left if these things offend. Hat tip to @queentim for the original inspiration.

Why are you posting a poisonous link here?

Well with 64k members it represents a large body of opinion and it's moderated and is a sister site to https://www.reddit.com/r/BRF/ - which is an outpouring of postive news about the British Royal Family to which many here would find no doubt refreshing.Most of the posts would probably find approval from many here so as such the site is not poisonous as such just distasteful (to me).

Has Meghan now a proper princess title? Do you know if she will be know as princess Meghan? ๐Ÿ‘ธ

She's technically Princess Henry or Princess Harry isn't she?

Sure but she is now a princess in her own right regardless of Harry.

Just a heads up @TheFirmBiscuit mn do not normally allow links to Reddit or similar sites on here , they used to automatically delete them , I'm unsure why they haven't now.

So will Meghan be relinquishing her British Duchess title and will go by her Nigerian title instead? It would save William a job when he gets to the throne.

She will, obviouslyโ€ฆ so she can hand it to you!

Frankly, anyone would be more deserving, right?

Righty-yo!

DiTePerdantTeMaledico · 13/05/2024 19:22

It would appear that the collective view here is they are poisonous and they shouldn't have been posted and yes I beleive them to be so and used (retrospectively misguidely) them to illustrate the poison cuts both ways.

In which case I wonโ€™t be looking at it.

The poison may cut both ways but I see no point in encouraging it.

Her motherland official Royal title is Princess Ada Mazi of Arochukwu, yes, it will be interesting to see which Royal title she values most.

The Daily Mail make money out of hating Harry and Meghan but maybe the tide has turned and they realise they're missing out - like with the Nigeria tour. Folk have been so radicalised by the British media into hating this couple what will they do if the Daily Mail changes tack - to make money? Some may assume it's a piss take? The papers do whatever it takes to make money leaving the radicalised unsure what's going on and don't want to let go of the vicious media stories. There's non so blind as those who will not see.

I'm surprised that you believe this.

I'm surprised that you believe this.

It's a bit like the Murdoch rags jump behind the party that's going to win the election - no principles involved just a grubby appetite to be at the top table. It's also probably a reaction to Kate being out of action - she sells newspapers and clicks. I doubt even the Mail has an appetite for 20 articles pouring ordure all over the couple so they get with the program. Probably they have found the coverage very popular globally hence they plough that furrow and top it off with a Bowyer article to stick the knife in.

I went to a glorious Tina Brown lecture last year and she remarked that there were secrets within the Royal Family that if known would bring it down. She also said the future hung on Kate - if she went rogue like Diana then that would probaly be it. She's an arch royalist as well so she wasn't sharpening axes just for the sake of it.

Wow that is pretty cool. How does it work. Can a Nigerian king make anyone a princess? I'm wondering how Nigerian expats in the US feel about this honour.

If I were Meghan, I'd 100% use Princess Ada Mazi of Arochukwu, without a doubt. It's a cool title and name. Does Ada Mazi have a sepcial meaning?

Well the archewell foundation has been declared delinquent and banned from engaging in charitable work, which is rather unfortunate as fhey are over there making big promises on collaboration and charitable investments, and they knew.

its being reported everywhere, us press and here,

Harry and Meghan's Archewell Foundation is deemed DELINQUENT

Records show the charity was declared delinquent in January for not filing its annual registration renewal fee reports or renewal fee since February 2023.

Thanks for the link. I wonder if they have breached the delinquency prohibition on this tour. That would be a bit of a downer.

He's disgusting. always been a pig of a man. But many on here seem to like him. Says a lot in my view.

Some of these commentators seriously need to be told to stfu.

Thinking charitably about this it could just be a late filing and something that was overlooked. I'm a trustee for a charity and whilst we get our annual filings on time and in order it is a necessary pain to do and I can see in a very busy seat of your pants operation it could have been overlooked. I'm sure whips will be cracked and they will get things in order in due course.

CathyorClaire · 13/05/2024 21:27

They are a public institution subject to public scrutiny , thank God ,and Harry found the love of his life and a path out of his pain

Well yeah. As far as the scrutiny goes until it hits the FOI exemption.

Harold would have happily wallowed in his pain had the institution rolled over and given him the sparkles and the conduit to the cold harsh cash he craved.

They have missed 3 deadlines. They will have been notified every time, this isnโ€™t just you miss it a bit and they shut you down.

but they do need to sort it. Because the optics are awful

the cynic in me wonders if they donโ€™t want to file as the financials are going to be even bigger news.

I'd forgotten about that in a previous life I had to do FOI's it's a rule 42 I seem to remember and on the rare occasions I got one I was happy as they got back a knock back pro-forma letter along the lines of pleb get back in your box your types are not privy to royal affairs. Or something like that.
