Sussex Whiplash

Sometimes, all the different media outlets who purport to know the inner workings of all things Sussex can give me whiplash. One moment the Sussex duo are on the outs with everyone, hemorrhaging or devoid of influential friends, making no headway with Netflix, losing money, can’t afford their mortgage and claimed to no longer be relevant. Then Suits saw an upsurge in viewers - fantastic ratings on Netflix, the BBC buys Suits, Invictus is being promoted via Harry’s award and trips, he receives a heartfelt standing ovation, Meghan finishes filming a new Netflix series purportedly linked to a nascent commercial venture and a new podcast is set for next year.

‘Lonely’ Harry, as some will insist on writing, is also not something that rings true for me. He has too much charisma, energy, interests, causes and is a people person. I also cannot think of anyone who needs to say I am friends with x, y, and z on a regular basis for the benefit or not of strangers. We don’t know who they are friends with, really. Meanwhile, pundits continue to engage those interested in the couple with whatever they can attributing the information to some made up mysterious ‘sources’. I suspect their real friends are quietly keeping their own counsel. Especially, now they have seen the mutual pathological loathing that Harry and the tabloids have towards one another. Can’t say I blame them either.

Now there is this:

Considering Whoopi G had less than favourable words for the couple I’d like to have been a fly on the wall at any meetings held. No doubt ‘netizens’ will have their microscopes to the ready to give us all their ‘insights’ regarding the events of the evening. No doubt I’ll get whiplash again when all their combined fingers hit the keyboards.

You are right. I have gone off topic. It happens all the time on this board. On most threads on the RF and on Mumsnetters in general. But I’ve not twisted your words.

I’m not a ‘a slavish defender of Harry’ as you might see if you read my posts a little more carefully. But it seems on here if you criticise any of the RF members other than Harry and Meghan, you get cast in the role as being ‘a slavish defender of Harry.’

You don’t like my options? Scroll on.

Edited

Maybe you should read my posts more carefully yourself, in the one you quoted I was actually agreeing with you with regards to Peter Ball but that didn’t fit your narrative, as for derailment, HQ have recently issued warnings about derailment on these threads so perhaps you should note that for future reference, and as for scrolling on by, right back at you, feel free to ignore my posts.
