See all these wise posters, lots of what we have said has been ‘confirmed’ by other sources

article in the DM:

One senior Hollywood publicist tells me: 'First of all, everyone industry-wide, EVERYONE reads The Hollywood Reporter. It's really striking that WME did not stop this running.'
She adds: 'WME normally – you would think – would have been threatening and denying access to other stars. Was this done here?

Thats exactly what we all thought! it’s strange how they are letting this stuff out.

As we have all seen in recent days, the dark art of covering up and killing stories- look at Al Fayed and what he got away with. So WME have done nothing???

Also, Harry attending an event in his own because Meghan is sick. No. This is part of separating their ‘brands’- I doubt she will attend any future events like these with Harry.

Seems like the wheels are falling off to me!

They're shitting on themselves!!

God, I can't believe the time to comment on this!

Nobody's angry btw. Nobody cares enough. It's just fun to speculate on the Monteshitshow - if that's ok with you of course?

The Sussex PR, with teams on both sides of the Atlantic, and the onslaught of spin stories they put out are the reason WHY they are still talked about. There is a reason they spend so much on spindoctors and PR. No one is angry or jealous, or whatever, but it is interesting to watch and comment on.

Not many people support bullying.

Brilliant.

^^ because they're horrible exploiters, using everything and everyone to make a dollar ... I feel PH has stupidly got mesmerised by a succubus ... but he's since become greedy, nasty and happy to use and abuse people - dreadful people

I’ve just looked that up. I came across this Sun article. https://www.thesun.co.uk/fabulous/fabulous-celebrity/24124201/meghan-markle-suffers-awkward-microphone-blunder/

Before her death, Kevin Costner was discussing the possibility of Diana starring in Bodyguard 2 and although Diana hadn’t agreed, he said he received a second draft of the script just before the fatal accident. This article also discusses rumours that Meghan was being considered for the role with the opinion that it cannot be true. https://www.scottishdailyexpress.co.uk/celebrity-news/meghan-markle-bodyguard-link-crock-30437383. And apparently according to Prince William, Diana “kinda fancied” Coster https://www.theguardian.com/film/2019/jul/02/princess-diana-bodyguard-sequel-kevin-costner

I think that’s the fascination. They are unique in the respect that there just isn’t another pair of public figures who act in such a way. They seem to have no judgement , no empathy, no class and exhibit such greed and hunger for fame it’s sickening.

I always thought that Kevin Costner story was wishful thinking on his part. I don't think Diana would ever have done something like that. He is still rolling it out though because he thinks it gives him kudos.

Now there's a good word - succubus!

I don't think Diana would have done Bodyguard 2 either, perhaps a tiny cameo of seconds but not a main role. She wasn't an actress and I think, some of her worse decisions aside, she ultimately did care about how her behaviour would reflect on William as King. A film like that would have been around forever and a day.

Meghan doing it? Maybe. I don't know anything about her acting ability (DH watched Suits and says she was "Ok") but a bit of a risk as the star of a major film I'd have thought, for lots of reasons. However, it might actually be one of the less egregious of the Sussexes moneymaking schemes if it happened.

I'm assuming the constant repetitious question from Sussex supporters on here about why we're interested in H & M are just rhetorical, or at least, merely a distraction tactic? These questions have been answered so, so many times, haven't they?

To add to what you say: H & M behave outrageously - jaw-droppingly badly in so many areas and ways. What sets them apart from the usual badly-behaved celebs is that they want to be seen as royal. It's sensational to have that combination - supposedly 'royal' personalities getting into scandals and mess-ups on a monumental scale. Plus - the quite phenomenal narcissism of Meghan is fascinating as a psychologial study. I'm absolutely riveted by what she'll do next!! 😮 Most 'regular' people would have been utterly shamed by the recent revelations of her bullying of employees - but will Meghan exhibit shame? Or will she come out grinning again, hoping we'll just forget it? It's like a soap from the days of Dynasty or Dallas!!!

Guilty secret - I loved Dynasty and Dallas !

Meghan reminds me of the phrase "Love me if you will; hate me if you must; but for God’s sake, don’t ignore me."

I've seen her in a few things, Suits, Fringe and Castle. She is a competent jobbing actress but imo doesn't have that something extra that you see in people who lead a succession of TV series.

I'm not denigrating her, most actors don't ever make it to one TV appearance, but I don't think she could have gone further than she did.

This is a great assessment! I suspect the learned her 'trade' by watching Hollywood B actors on set as a child, rather than any deep study of the dramatic art such as that undertaken by our own Judi Dench (long may she live!!!).

I cannot, just cannot imagine Meghan giving us 'her Ophelia', or an Ibsen heroine, for example. Her acting is formulaic stuff and she's had roles where having the right look is what matters, not the subtle originality or nuance of your interpretation or delivery! It reminds me of why many of the child actors from eg Grange Hill don't make it further than East Enders. They may have very limited range and are basically playing a version of themselves.

@MrsLeonFarrell I'm constantly amazed by the number of actors in US TV series who are both very talented and objectively gorgeous (male and female) who don't get much more than one lead part in a show, even if that was successful. I suppose that there is a vast pool of choice.

As we know, Hollywood is brutal to women deemed middle aged anyway (another story) and I'm not sure what Meghan would bring to the table apart from a title and notoriety.

Hollywood is certainly brutal to middle aged actresses. I don't think Meghan could resume her career, even if she wanted to, because there simply aren't enough parts.

I was thinking of David Boreanaz's career as I typed. He was very wooden at the beginning of Buffy, gradually improved and hasn't been out of work since. He is fairly good looking, a competent actor but he also has that certain something that means people keep casting him. I don't think anyone can define it but some have it and some don't. Sarah Lancashire has it.

I'm just going to put this here. It seems the recent claims about MM come from someone who STILL works for her:

www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-13885089/Meghan-Markle-Duchess-Difficult-staff.html

Spot on. She is always the same. There are some famous actors who can get away with that but very few. She was a girly, flirty, lightweight girl - it was never anything serious. She was never going to hold a main role in a movie. She was the bend over show your ass hot girl , ten a penny.

I liked the bit in The Windsors Wedding Special when the MM character is about to pull out from the engagement- until the Charles makes a speech including a bit about how this amazing actress is giving up her career when everyone knows just how very many Hollywood roles there are for women in their 40s

(Tell me, what first attracted you to millionaire Paul Daniels)

Also, in the first DM article- they are talking about how Archewell productions has always been seen as a brand exercise and not a serious production company.

I had a google of 'brand exercise' and according to several articles the whole point is to build visibility and profile and drive the brand onwards and upwards.
Archewell so far appears to have developed little beyond a shill shell.

Maybe Harold missed the memo.

Staff including Josh Kettler have now spoken out defending Meghan…

Interesting article. I would say in this case, perhaps both are true. Just 2 different aspects. My dd has a friend, who blows hot and cold. She’s currently an ex friend as she seriously overstepped (again) recently. For context, the girls are 16. I hope she will at some stage get past this erratic behaviour as it must be more unpleasant for her to be manifesting the behaviour than to be on the receiving end.

Hmm I think that is a very carefully worded comment by Josh Kettler

Lots of typically narc style “love bomb performative gifting” seems to take place 😆

And I agree that there is a lot of “careful wording” of the praise that is given to the Sussexes
