Welcome to Part 7 of our positive threads, where we explore all things Meghan and Harry. From the causes they champion and their business ventures to Meghan’s (and occasionally Harry’s 😉) fashion moments, there’s a lot to chat about. This is a drama-free space, so let’s keep it upbeat! High five to @queentim for the original inspiration.

Mmmm unfortunate timing maybe, however, if you lie down with dogs …….

CathyorClaire · 10/09/2024 20:59

I don't think the timing is anything to do with Harry and he shouldn't be blamed for it

He took the NF $$$millions. What did he think might happen?

Archewell is the producer of the POLO program. I'd be pretty surprised if Netflix was making announcements about it without Archewell's say so.

Petitchat · 11/09/2024 10:45

How do we know it isn't the other way round?
Maybe the Royals found out the Polo program was coming, tried to get their video out first but didn't quite make it.

By Royals I mean their media department, not William and Kate themselves.
W&K are probably too concerned about much more important things such as Kate's health and their children, etc.

The ridiculous "war" and "timing" between William and Harry is most likely contrived by media departments.

Doubt it - the release was just before the DC went back to school, so I think the timing would have been settled well in advance. Term dates a published a couple of years in advance, and there is often a "first day back" pic, so I think it was somewhere between pretty likely to odds on certainty that there would be Wales family news in the first part of this week.

I think it's good for the DC for there to have been a public update before they go back to mix with their mates. It give a measure of safety from clarity about what it's ok to talk about.

It's like the public announcement of the cancer was made just at the end of a term (few hours after the school broke up) so the DC were in private for the first reactions.

😂as if the royals would need to trump that polo programme 😂!!

But KP did release the video about Catherine first?

How would KP find out when NF were going to release any info? And why - realistically - would they really care?

And I think it's pretty clear who are the ones deliberately speaking to the Press.

Oh dear. Talking to "People" directly. They really are desperate for coverage, aren't they?

That's the most elastic piece of stretch I think I've ever heard.

It's hilarious 😂! As if the RF were in any way affected by some nonsensical self promotion by the Sussex camp. Utterly ludicrous.

The timestamps on the Twitter posts mean we know exactly when the Wales released their (not pre-leaked, or pre-trailed anywhere) video. And we can then see the Netflix promo tweet came out 90 minutes later.

So no, it wasn’t the other way around.

And hopefully they couldn't give a rat's ass about all the nasty bitching that goes on about them either.

I also really like a couple of actors who will never know I exist.
So what? You don't have to have their reciprocation when you admire celebrities.

A bit naive if anyone thinks otherwise.....

I'll tell you what is naive - it's the constant fangirling/hero worshipping of this unremarkable pair, whom nobody would give a second glance had he not been born a prince and had she not married one. It's not at all about them doing good in the world as they claim - it's using it as a vehicle for self-promotion and acquiring wealth which is pretty damn cynical and not in the least bit admirable!

Yes there are figures in the public eye who I admire but I don't go round posting about them in the glowing, enthusiastic, over-hyped way the Sussex squad do about Meghan and Harry! It's over-the-top and somewhat disturbing to think that there are people out there who think that way! I don't understand how anyone would fawn over anyone like that?

There's a world of difference between what you term "nasty bitching" (it's not!) and discussing two people's behaviour who have put themselves out there for public consumption!

WTF would they even want to lol?

Finistereoverthere · 07/09/2024 14:30

Mmmm… same could be said of the RF and monarchiste I think!

Absolutely - only thing no-one is gushing about everything they do!!!

TallerSally · 06/09/2024 11:03

It's boring.

Indeed, it’s worse than watching paint dry, which is why most sensible posters have left these boards, and only dip in occasionally to see if anyone is posting anything other than pile-ons of the same boring H&M-bashing rants.

Fortunately sometimes there’s a genuinely interesting development!

That's just wonderful!! What an amazing opportunity for Harry to look like a spoilt dick who is totally out of his depth, in the midst of such venerable experts!

Hopefully none of them will shove him out of the way...

Meghan and Harry attended a bookstore -Godmothers- friends and family event for the opening on Friday the 7th.

Where’s the tennis pictures OP with the baggy shift dress?

That’s where they were Saturday, charity tennis match, when the fallout from the HR article was happening. She’s got some balls…tennis ones apparently!

skullbabe · 16/09/2024 08:29

They went to the George Zajfen Tennis Tournament this past Saturday supporting the Zajfen family. This is a charity event held in honour of George who died aged 9 from a viral illness. Kelly co-founded the Alliance of Moms - a community who support pregnant and parenting teens in LA’s foster care system so that they can build a positive future for themselves and their children.

Thanks OP.
Nice pics and what a good cause for them to support.

You missed one of her trips to the bookshop, skullbabe! She went there three different times last week!

Three times to a book shop in a week? Bizarre!

Have to say I really don't like the dress she wore to the tennis, it doesn't do anything for her.

Agree. It looks like a large man’s shirt with the sleeves cut off and it’s that vile beige colour again. She looks better in the blue jumper

JADS · 16/09/2024 10:46

Membership for the book shop is $200/month. I would being going there 3x a week for that!
