H & M announce a visit to Colombia

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle announce they will visit Colombia

mol.im/a/13698271

Another country on the "Don't travel" list.

"But the UK and US governments have both issued security alerts over travelling to Colombia amid fears over crime, terrorism, civil unrest and kidnapping - and Harry's decision to visit comes amid his ongoing battle for his security when in Britain.
The UK's Foreign and Commonwealth Office 'advises against all but essential travel to parts of Colombia'. And the US Department of State issued a travel advisory for Colombia stating: 'Reconsider travel due to crime and terrorism. Exercise increased caution due to civil unrest and kidnapping. Some areas have increased risk.'"

Perhaps he thinks this is the way to get his security reconsidered? Personally I'd say the opposite.
If he still had UK security I'd expect them to do a risk assessment and say "NO".
Why should security personnel be put at risk by being required to travel to these dangerous destinations.

These photos are brilliant! 😂loving the VP's side eye and that bored lad.
Are these taken by Misan Harriman?

"I have two children and they're not on social media"

Aren't they 5 and 3? 😂

Interesting snippet. A lip reader saying Meghan orders Harry 'Hand'. The body language so far is all rather interesting.

Harry looks bored to tears, this is Meghan's tour.

Oh my word, 'paw' , good doggie.

Harry really does not want to be there, he hated doing it when he had a real Royal job, so it must be absolute torture for him now. I can only think M must have some pain in her jaws at the end of the day from all that fake smiling, its the oddest thing to see her big grin when everyone else around her is serious and paying attention. .

There is a video of her on X interrupting and cutting off Harry when he is speaking to someone, he looks suitably chastised, and mortified, he tgets the death glare another time, guess he must have been talking rubbish.

Talking rubbish, you say, @Thedom ?
I'll take your rubbish and give you a dollop of hypocrisy.
The truth? Harry's lecturing people about the truth?!

Prince Harry and Meghan pose for a photo with a figure of a big cat in the mouth of a person with a staff, during their visit in Bogota, Colombia, 15 August 2024.

'We are no longer debating facts', says Harry in Colombia

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are visiting Colombia following an invitation from the vice-president.

No, Harry. Facts went out the window some time ago.

pilates · 16/08/2024 07:27

I wish they weren’t given so much publicity.

ThePoshUns · 16/08/2024 07:29

Yes @Thedom I saw that clip too. It's very telling. She really has him by the balls.

To give you a reason to take to your keyboard again...and again...and again. You should be thanking them.

I am indeed thankful to them, and have been for some time.

They and their increasingly bizarre antics kept me amused through the dreary days of lockdown, and beyond. Who doesn't love a bit of free entertainment?

Literally unbelievable! Is he completely without self awareness?

Ummmm, have you read the royal family posts on this mumsnet?? It's full of people broadcasting their nasty opinions about Harry and Meghan, people they don't actually know and have never met. Incidentally, the other day there was a poster saying Doria, Meghan's mother was in prison for 10 years for drugs with absolutely no proof. Now that is NASTY!!

There was indeed a discussion about that post - it wasn't received well, and people did ask for proof and none was forthcoming.

If you're going to attempt to characterise a thread based on previous exchanges, at least give a fair representation of what was said. And of course you can always report comments you think go too far (much better than repeating them) MNHQ can and do delete comments that go to far - including those that repeat nastiness in the guise of deploring it

Mylovelygreendress · 16/08/2024 08:10

There’s a wee video on Twitter of Harry speaking and Meghan interrupts him . He looks deflated .

The VP sounds 'bright', not !! Shallow, uninformed, fangirl.

Inspired by a Netflix show to invite them LOL. That really puts into perspective why they got their invitation😁

I think she must be bright, to have reached the office she holds.

And I think she is, very deliberately, using this visit to further her political ambitions. She saw the Netflix and invited MM to a day celebrating women of afro descent last year, which she was unable to attend. That day received no international press coverage that I remember seeing at the time, but if MM had been there, the profile would have been very different. Even without getting the spotlight on that, it was still worth hosting a visit, because it's getting attention on her and projects she has selected. Canny.

Edited to add: plus it will be a tourism boost, as some might see it now as a safer destination than UK (though of course the average tourist isn't in as peculiar as set of circumstances as the Sussexes)

Didn’t he say in Spare that his memories don’t have to be factually valid to be true or something?

I’ve said before and will say again

if the sexes were reversed people would be calling it emotional abuse. Isolating from friends and family is generally a give away.

Harry (and Meghan) I think, are only interested in “facts” that show them in a positive light. They are not really concerned about the internet and its safety. They are only interested in controlling the narrative so there is no criticism of them ever. That is their motive behind their interest in what happens on social media and in the press in my opinion

PrettyFlyforaMaiTai · 16/08/2024 08:23

Is this the video everyone is talking about? Or is it another one? She doesn’t look thrilled about what he’s saying (sorry there’s no preview image, it’s a twitter link)

He told them his children don't have social media - well doh! Look at their age. What a nut job 😂

Why do all the newbie’s on here sound the same? like they are talking off a script?

Because they are?

Yes, it's all this "their truth" in other words, no objectivity. Just feelings.
