Why do Harry and Meghan tell porkies that are so easy to prove wrong?

[YaMuvva]

Starting with the porkie that Archie wasn’t gonna be titled. Anyone who understands the Letters Patent would know that as long as the Queen was alive this was never gonna happen. I said this when watching the Oprah interview and I’m pretty appalled they told such an easily provable lie.

Then Harry said that daddy cut his security off. Anyone who knows about RAVEC knows it is independent of the Royal Family and Charles couldn’t do this if he tried. Same with “Only titled people get security” / this was so easy to prove wrong.

And why are there 2 versions of the proposal story. Did they think we wouldn’t notice? Is one a Hollywood version for their American audience?

The same with the ‘how they met’ story - in their engagement interview they said it was a blind date, to Netflix they met on Instagram.

I also was puzzled at her saying she never wore bright colours and that royal women could never wear the same colour as the Queen. It’s just nonsense. See below pictures.

Why do they do this? My theory is that everything they do now is for an American audience who are used to the reality TV narrative of “Some scenes have been created for entertainment” style TV and just accept their narrative as partly fictional, as long as it’s entertaining?

Oh god yes ! Thank you, I'm not normally this slow off the mark!

The lip gloss was shared though! Not with enough delight at being offered the opportunity to share with the goddess, seemingly however, so poor Kate gets to have Harry criticising her for it.

I'm not sure I believe this anecdote either, how could he not stay awake for the time it took her to poas and the couple of minutes for it to develop?

"According to Harry, Meghan took two at-home pregnancy tests in the bathroom of Nottingham Cottage, where they were living in 2018 - however he 'fell asleep' while waiting for her and awoke to find that she had placed the two tests on his nightstand next to the couple's bed."

Diana is definitely buried on an island on the Althorp estate. I saw on C that her brother had been gifted a wooden canoe for his birthday so he could row over and see her.

I know right, it only takes 3 minutes!

I do give a fuck.

On a thread, a very long time ago, when I was considered not black enough to join in, a very small minority and me fought so very hard for the history and pain which was dismissed - along with others that they also chose to dismiss and ignore the persecution of.

A few valiantly also fought for mongrels like me. When I say mongrels, I mean those of us not bold enough to give ourselves a bloody percentage because our ancestry is so muddy/unknown/so mixed/not ‘enough’.

I have never forgotten them.

Because I was always brown enough for them and the racism I experienced growing up was recognised by them. Seen.

Not prejudice. Not unconscious bloody bias. Sheer, brutal, bloody all out racism.

My friend, I will fight for everyone who experiences that. Including M.

What I cannot fucking do is ignore lies and allegations and hypocrisy.

Because those are the things that are fair bloody game.

For you. 🌻

It's seriously thought by people in the area that she was moved to the Church where her Father is interred after the public funeral.

Do you not realise the vile Giles Coren made up the Rose rumours? Why are you perpetuating lies about a man who wife has cancer? It’s cruel.

When I was in the states, a lot of the Americans stated they couldn't stand her and hated what she did to the royal family. I was talking to a black family who's child kept asking to speak in my funny accent, the mother said you don't know how to be racist and also said we all wondered what colour the children would be, it's a natural thing. So even Americans see through them

Everyone knows they were made up.

You also answered your own question with your last two words.

With a population of over 330 million and 3.8 minion square miles I am pretty sire your sample was a small one.

I'd like Sophie as my bestie, with Zara joining us for a wild night out, ending up at Camilla's for a hangover breakfast that morphs in to hair-of-the-dog cocktails

It did make me laugh that in the same book he wrote about meanie Kate not being happy about sharing lip gloss then disclosing whilst thinking of his mother he applies cream his mother used as a lip balm for his frosty PENIS. Definitely with Catherine on that one.

Why does everyone focus on Harry & Megan talking about the family when we have been told openly by reporters/journalists that in the period when the press turned on Megan both William & Kate's and Camilla's press officers actually moved into Fleet Street offices so they could feed stories to the media easier.

They are ALL at it and I really wish we didn't have to constantly read stories about any of them. They are no more interesting to me than the desperate celebrities, all vying for the best press.

Pathetic.

Do you have any links to support that?

Because if so, why the fuck would they move to Fleet Street, when all the tabloids moved out of there in the 1980s?

I smell bullshit

Sorry, can’t find anything about this. Can you link your sources?

What's your evidence for that, @StaunchMomma ? From Harry? The Fleet Street comment makes no sense at all. This is from someone who doesn't understand what is happening.
There's no reason why the RF would "feed" negative stories about H&M. On the contrary. We've seen how protected and supported H&M have been.

I know! This was made up by someone who has no idea what's going on.

That reminds me, that 'Josephine Baker' banana skirt cartoon of Meghan was from a French publication, Charlie Hebdo. The same magazine also ran a front cover of the Queen kneeling on Meghan's neck.

The chimpanzee infant was a tweet. Danny Baker was sacked for it.

The racists who were making threats, arrested and sentenced carried out these activities on Social Media. They went to prison.

Mail Online and the Daily Mail are huge in the US and Australia, not just the UK. Both websites have a combined reach in excess of 191m visits per month, making it the most widely-read newspaper website in the world. Its target market are readers who are older, affluent, and male-skewed, apparently - with stuff that is for women too.

The 'straight out of Compton' article came straight out of its Los Angeles office. You can see who wrote the article and from office; however, I do not know who was responsible for the headline - probably an editor or sub-editor.

In terms of some of the UK print media, and notably the phone hacking, the UK's England & Wales judicial system saw arrests, convictions and jail sentences of journalists, private detectives and their sidekicks. The court cases and the resulting Levenson Inquiry uncovered a murky world of illegal activities and spying on celebrities, royals, MPs and the families of murder victims. The Met Police were implicated. Some of those at the top were considered to have 'got away with it' - but it was a jury's decision not to convict, say, Rebekah Brooks, not anyone else's.

The Levenson Inquiry changed the landscape. The inquiry ended early before the full extent of police involvement could be unearthed. This was a political decision by the Conservative government, to supposedly save blushes money.

It was all over, including much holding to account of the unlawful activities of some of the print media based in the UK, the establishment of IPSO and new codes of practice, by the time Meghan married Harry.

I think context and full picture are important.

@Vopik - I don't think MM has charisma as such, I think she's good at elbowing her way into the middle of things and being all grandiose about herself, self serving and self promoting. Kate in the other hand is shy and retiring, she joined the firm very young in real life, much like Diana was, especially in the early days for both of them, she's getting better now but it takes time and experience.
MM has been practising in a viper pit for years in California on the actress / telly circuit so has built up that resilience and ability to talk bollox like any actor - she's been clambering herself up the food chain like a ferret up a drainpipe for many years, and bagged an easy target (dippy bloke!), fed him a load of narc shit and he's now lost his family and friends - she's cut him off too geographically speaking. I have a modicum of sadness for him, except all of the nastiness he's spewed out too. I think she's really done a number on him! She'll FO as soon as someone else comes along that'll get her more than now, I don't believe for a microsecond she's in it for love, she's got diamonds and greenbacks in her sights, she's bagged herself a title - trashed the rest as she didn't get equity, she isn't in it for playing second, 3rd or forth fiddle, let alone the B team that she found herself I.

Erm that just isn’t true. I understand you may not like royalty but you what you’ve just written is nonsense

Thanks, @AutumnCrow - good, detailed post.
It's frustrating when people blithely trot out the same stuff about the "British Press" or the "British Media".
The nearest newspaper offices to Fleet Street now is the FT in Cannon Street.

More SS plop and run..........

“Plop and run”. Ewwww 🤢😂😂

Wasn’t there a segment in either Oprah or the Netflix doc where they were complaining about the British press whilst images of newspaper front covers were shown and it turned out that none of the examples shown were British publications?
