The worst behaved children are usually those who have parents who can’t see any wrong in them.

It’s not their fault.
It’s so and so’s fault.
They’re just misunderstood.

This reminds me of Meghan and Harry and their fans. I wonder what will need to happen before the scales fall from the eyes.
Although, probably, even if the members of the Sussex survivors club come forward with their stories of how have been treated, bullied and suffered or the bullying report is released, then these people will still excuse their behaviour and actions. Because they are just misunderstood and vilified.

Wow you’re so way off base!

Take a look at the working royals and who they interact with. Camilla lunched with both Piers and Clarkson.

…says it all really.

Quite frankly you seem determined to buy into the UK media hype around H and M. Not only that but you add to their bandwagon speculation, hunches and lies by your own further speculation and at best ‘creative’ writing. You are far too invested in seeing them fail. Why is that?

Why are you so invested in not acknowledging the absolute lies she has spouted?
You can’t diss the RF, especially when PP was on his death bed and expect everyone to have any sympathy you.

AliceOlive · 03/06/2024 15:05

Just saw the question above addressed to me by Dingaling.

I do not want to see them fail at all. I have watching them in a free fall and yelling “pull up! pull up!” over years now.

There is a difference between wanting someone to make major life missteps and noticing they are making those missteps.

Just as there is a difference between wishing someone success and believing they are actually successful. It’s not very kind to pretend, either.

It’s very sad, ironic and sometimes even hypocritical that some posters resort to personal insults. Posting that posters on this thread are lazy and closed minded is unnecessary and rude as well as not being at all the case or at all true. Just because, they don’t agree with you that Meghan is a saint and is only to be worshiped.
You are so blinded by your adoration.
Posters on here, have well thought out and evidence based opinions and debate points. You are getting personal because there is no evidence to back up your OP and your arguments are not withstanding scrutiny.

Edited

It's all very weak of them and familiar somehow. Insult if they can't come up with anything factual.

What “wave of success?” Lots of fanfare, nothing of substance. Everyone ended up looking a bit mean and nasty about the Mother’s Day photo after Catherine revealed the full extent of her health struggles, didn’t they? What has happened to Archewell? ARO seems to have been a damp squib so far. Momentum will be lost if something doesn’t happen soon 🤷‍♀️. As for celebrating Lili’s third birthday, of course they did. Not sure why that is newsworthy. So basically, lots of nothing

aclapperfullofcrap · 06/06/2024 12:11

I think the only reason I would ever click on the Sussex website? It would be when they addressed their silence about death threats, small businesses being damaged and individuals being under attack from the fans they appear to be in cahoots with.

Till then? I’ve as much interest in them as I would have in caressing a frostbitten boaby.

And what about the vile abuse Catherine got? Remember the Duchess of Pork comments in the tabloids regarding Fergie’s weight?
I remember the vile Danny Baker being a racist twat which was downright unforgivable though.

All good. They keep on doing what they said they would. All these years later and they have yet to fall by the wayside despite the best efforts of the bitter and twisted.

OP posts:
MummyJ12 · 06/06/2024 12:59

Unfortunately, the Royal Family have very real threats against them constantly, it is why their level of protection is as it is and it is being assessed constantly, it was not just Meghan and Harry who faced such threats. Although Harry didn’t help his cause writing about his kill count of taliban soldiers. That was just idiotic for someone who claims to be security conscious,
There was two people who were found guilty and given custodial sentences for what they said on a podcast. But they also said similar horrific things about lots of people, which doesn’t make it ok but it definitely wasn’t targeted. They also weren’t doing it in the cause of supporting the Monarchy. No death threats have been made against the Sussexes in the name of anyone who claimed to be doing it in support of the Monarchy.

Compare that with the death threats from the Sussex Squad, who are absolutely doing it to support Harry and Meghan. They are silent and complicit and it’s disgusting. THAT is the difference. Even claims from the Sussex Squad that they want to beat up Prince George. He’s a child for goodness sake! Yet Harry and Meghan are still silent and won’t call off their squad. Even though they could, they won’t because they are in the middle of it. Unforgivable.

aclapperfullofcrap · 06/06/2024 13:17

The RF supported them before the book and interview.

Alas, I would no more stand up for ‘peeps’ who told lies about me and relayed private conversations in interviews and print than I would rub my genitals and think of a parent.

They, although M in particular, yap on about internet hatred and yet stayed silent during the racism allegation ‘error’ and the campaign against the POW when undergoing cancer treatment.

I don’t wish them ill but I cannot be doing with liars and hypocrites. I especially dislike H for standing by and doing nothing while his dad was undergoing his own cancer treatment and also doing nothing for the person he regarded as a sister.

He is a very sorry excuse for a man. Being enabled by someone with a brassier neck and a bigger pair of bollocks than he has.

Your idea of “vile abuse” seems to be anything other than glowing support for their every move. Words mean things.

Gorgonemilezola · 06/06/2024 13:33

I don’t think any member of the rf has thanked a group of people hurling online abuse at Harry and Meghan. I also remember a statement from Prince William asking the press to lay off Meghan. I don't remember a statement from Harry when Kate was being called a slut by the paps.

MummyJ12 · 06/06/2024 13:52

Not just thanking a group of people but taking some of them to Germany and Nigeria to act as cheerleaders, putting the Sussex Squad as sponsors for companies that they are associated with on printed thank yous. Harry and Meghan are in regular contact with these people.

DingDingaling · 06/06/2024 17:34

The Sussex family have their supporters. Do I think they are in contact with individual supporters today who have revealed themselves to be uncharitable? No I do not. Do I think the current poison being drunk is one where the tabloids are trying to hang M and H with every SS antic? Yes I do. Is it because they want to ‘punish’ and to try and bring the couple down? Yes I do.

I have no sympathy for a brother who has shown unprincipled and less than kingly decorum towards Harry. Even less respect for a white male who could not cope with a fully fledged woman of colour who could speak her mind on topical subjects. Further, Meghan has condemned the online hate and held summits with professionals , experts and workers in this area.

As for Bouzy. He is distasteful at best and unkind at worst. An obvious self promoter for his tech schemes and very much a hanger on these days regarding his few minutes of ‘fame’ when Netflix made a documentary about Meghan and Harry.

Sometimes people have acquaintances or friends who are left behind or ghosted when they say and do things that are not liked. It does not mean that it is necessary to put out a statement. However, when women members of parliament had to join forces to address the unhinged tabloid abuse it would have been meaningful if Kate had shown some support of Harry’s wife as well. She did not. Unforgivable to many but understandable to my mind.

I certainly don’t hold Chuck as being responsible for this character’s heinous behaviour:

https://amp.theguardian.com/media/2012/oct/29/jimmy-savile-behaviour-prince-charles

Chuck’s closeness to Saville and lauding him for his wonderful charity work does not make him the man’s keeper. Nor an apologist for him and his ongoing criminality during their time ‘together’ as prince and friend.

Dingaling there is just no comparison. Saville wasn’t abusing people in support of Charles.

And as far as you know, Harry made everything about William up. His memory is his memory and he has form for it.

DelectableMe · 06/06/2024 17:38

I agree with pp. I do wish that Meghan and Harry would call out the online hate of William and Kate.
It was vile. Meghan was on some sort of panel talking about it, but only talked about the problem by focussing on herself.
Hypocrisy of the highest order.

It’s funny how it’s all about Harry and all based only on Harry’s word. However we’ve seen Harry being openly unprincipled toward his own brother in print and in interviews, but that is ok. Because again, much lower expectations for Harry than everyone else.

MrsDanversGlidesAgain · 06/06/2024 17:50

Not sure how William can show 'kingly decorum' either, whatever that is. Seeing as he's not even king yet. Princely, perhaps. IMO he's shown great princely decorum in not responding under what must be intense provocation to do so.

As for the rest of that little diatribe...Lord above. 🙄

The style's eerily familiar, too.

Serenster · 06/06/2024 17:51

However, when women members of parliament had to join forces to address the unhinged tabloid abuse it would have been meaningful if Kate had shown some support of Harry’s wife as well. She did not.

She might perhaps had been minded to do so, of course, had Meghan not herself provided Toronto online gossip websites with stories about how Kate was snobbish very shortly after they met. Why would you try to use your influence to protect someone who was using their connections to abuse you?
