Part 6 of positive threads, delving into all things Meghan and Harry. Whether it’s the causes they support, their business initiatives, or Meghan’s fashion choices (Harry’s too, on occasion 😉), there’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. This is a relatively drama free zone - let’s keep things light! Clinking a glass of lemonade 🥂 to @queentim for the original inspiration.

There was only one photograph featuring the couple. Therefore, it stands to reason that the only logical conclusion to be drawn is that the comment refers to the photograph of the couple. Once again, a lovely couple. 🩷

The model photo:

It shows the back of the dress, for those who insisted there was no back to the dress…

…I believe the dress sold out. Although there may be another reason why it cannot be bought now as there are none left.

The dress is not at all sold out. It’s available in every size.

The Johanna Ortiz Tropicana Nights dress only sold out after going in the sale to almost half price.

The Duke of Westminster gets married on Friday in what has been described as the Society Wedding of the Year. H and M are not going . Sources said they weren’t invited , the Sussexes issued a statement insisting they had received a save the date but decided not to go . It’s now been reported that William is to be an usher and Harry was angry that he wasn’t asked.
Whatever the reasons , I wonder if we will see H and M out on a hike/ lunch date/
whatever on Friday to try and get some headlines ?

Seemingly Harry has made a civilised agreement not to attend ....ouch that's got to hurt! 😂

Where do you get such ideas?

BemusedAmerican · 04/06/2024 23:17

@SagharborM & H have been publicly photographed with known SS members. They are also publicly associated with Bouzy. They haven't asked the SS to tone it down with the attacks on William, Catherine, or Sean Lennon. The SS attacked the Trussell Trust and Small Batch Jam with no response from H & M.

There has been months of publicity and speculation about the Westminster wedding. William will be an usher. Based on the SS track record for William and Catherine, I would be vigilant if I were the D of W.

For their own sake, H & M should make it clear that they don't approve of SS behavior.

BemusedAmerican · 04/06/2024 23:46

By vigilant, I want to clarify that I mean that the SS may create a storm on social media, as they did in the examples I mentioned above. This can be very upsetting, especially at a time of emotional vulnerability. It is wise to be psychologically prepared for online attacks.

Ummm…look again. In the grey block it says ‘sold out’ against all sizes.

I do enjoy reading the news on their website. I hadn’t realised Harry was only made a global ambassador for Scottys as recently as November 2023.

Of course it's sold out. It was released in 2018. Meghan is not wearing a "new" (as in current) dress.

Yes, it's an old season that's no longer sold. The designer was taking "pre-orders", clearly to guage interest before going to the expense of producing it again. Win win for her. She loses nothing if its not cost effective to reissue, but gains data from potential clients.

Edit: she's no longer taking pre-orders for it, and it's still not available to buy. Will be interesting to see if it will be reissued.

How do you know? Did you see the designer speak somewhere about this?

In any event I was referring to this comment made which is inaccurate:

“MummyJ12 · 04/06/2024 17:33

The BBC exclusively covered Prince Harry’s visit and interaction with the charity when he was year for the Invictus 10 year anniversary. I watched it on the news last month.

I wonder if the designer has got a competition going to see if anyone can possibly look worse in that frock than M?

Or if it can be worn be worn at an even less appropriate occasion?

The designers’s website. So technically, yes, I guess.

In your opinion. Not mine and many others. Although when you see the bashing she gets on here you might think otherwise.

Thankfully, not all of us drink the poisoned coolaid. I prefer to focus on their good works. Of which there is plenty.

So nice to see M&H back home with their kids - they must be absolutely exhausted!

I am still amazed by what they, Invictus and the Nigerian government and others just pulled off. A flawless, successful quasi-presidential level tour! Who would have imagined that 4 years ago when they fled the UK!

And to return to warm words of support for Archewell by Governor of California Gavin Newsom himself…

Plus all the exciting Netflix projects and ARO and the first ever Invictus Winter Games in just 9 months…

I remember the CEO of Netflix commenting on the success of Harry & Meghan, saying people (including in the UK) watched the hell outta that show. Like Spare which became the bestselling book in UK in 2023…

No wonder H&M said in their exclusive post Nigeria interview with People: “we’re happy”

I would be too, despite everything! 😂🤩🌟

💯 😊

NoNekkidNonNigerians · 06/06/2024 13:03

There isn’t enough poisoned koolaid to go around.

They drink it all in Montecito.

💯😊

WibblyWobblyJane · 06/06/2024 13:13

It’s just ludicrous to suggest that it’s “bashing” to say that a woman going braless and showing that much skin is inappropriate for an event at a school with young children.

That’s not “bashing”. It’s common sense. Anyone who feels Meghan should be held to a different standard than any other woman on the planet would be should think about why they feel this way. It’s not a kindness to have lower expectations for her.

WibblyWobblyJane · 06/06/2024 13:17

Gavin Newsom is a nepo baby who passed legislation that put a rapist/pedophile with a penis in a prison cell with a woman who became a victim of assault and rape at the hands of this male-bodied “woman”. I wouldn’t crow about him or want my name associated.

He also partied hardy during Covid while the rest of California had to live by rules which we now know had zero scientific basis and caused our children in particular great harm. He’s slime.

WibblyWobblyJane · 06/06/2024 13:19

Amen.

Speaking of which, Scotty's Little Soldiers is my absolute fave non-profit that Harry is global sponsor for.

People often don't think about what life is like for children who have lost parents to war. Shining the spotlight on them, and even just turning up to play with them, as Harry seems to do every single year he's been patron without fail, is just good philanthropy.

The BBC footage of Harry's most recent visit (which they got as an exclusive) says it all: smiling faces all around.

Well done Harry! 😎

WibblyWobblyJane · 06/06/2024 13:26

Hope he wears more appropriate clothes to visit the children than his wife.

Though maybe the larger concern is his drug use. Is he still actively abusing drugs? It could explain him falling asleep in the handful of minutes that it takes for a pregnancy test to complete. Also that he showed up hours late for the Diana Awards earlier this year.
