Is there another couple in the world like The Sussexes?

[veraswaistcoat]

I was musing last night about this aspect - they had the world at their feet. Despite what Sussex Supporters like to suggest most people in the UK nodded their heads " yes it was lovely Harry was getting married finally" . I had never heard of the bride myself as I don't watch American tv shows of that ilk. She was black or biracial? It didn't even enter my head what colour she was initially and then as coverage started it didn't make one iota of difference one way or the other. I recall the day of the wedding - it was sunny and the pubs were full of royal cheer broadcasting the wedding.

And then it all started to where we are today.

Are there any other couples in the world who have gone through such a downfall? Is this a feature of the social media arena today?
We see P Diddy and Blake Lively and others exposed now through SM.
You can't count the Duke and Duchess of Windsor in this category as they were always unpopular.

Can you think of any examples of people who have fallen so spectacularly?

I know people say " they live in California, they have money blah blah" but their reputation is one that most people would not want.

Is it purely because of their seeming complaining and sense of entitlement ? I mean you don't see the real philanthropists in this way - in fact you rarely hear about them and what they do.

Here’s what you said, CeciliaImrie:

“I'm an ex journalists. The reason H&M get so much press is because the lovely Camilla has the Palace and press bods such as the Piers Morgan et al in her back pocket”

If you were a journalist 17 years ago (so, in 2008) how on earth do you know what has been going on behind the scenes to lead to bad press for Harry and Meghan? They have only been together for the last seven years.

Thanks for the response.

Here are all the statements Catherine has made since her cancer diagnosis, what part of it do you feel needs clarifying?

It seems pretty clear to me, though I do concede certain media outlets have been prone to not reporting accurately, though that would be something you would need to take up with them.

I can't see anything complicated in what the Wales' have been saying.

Is that a serious question?

I don't hate Meghan Markle or Prince Harry.

I'm trying to understand your anger but it's not easy.

I’m not remotely angry. There just seems to be a big logical flaw in the reason you gave us for knowing what goes on behind the scenes.

So I’ve asked you about it, and got silly accusations straight back.

Midtown is like a giant parking lot. Tour buses and tourists posing for selfies, while delivery people on evokes in the street and on the sidewalk, cyclists, MTA buses all crowd the space. Crossing the street as a pedestrian is a nightmare since you ate stuck in a huge mass of slow humanity. We also have cameras that ticket speeders and blocking the box (the intersection). If you look at the video of Adams when he hears about it, he's trying, in my opinion, not to laugh.

he married an older woman who is a divorcee and from hollywood, with a shady past. What possibly could go wrong

apparently slapping older women's bottoms is his hobby

Because I would have thought that an understanding of how the Head of State of the UK (not England) operates would be useful to a journalist. Particularly as you seem keen to comment on the Royals. I would have thought you might want to inform yourself properly

You claimed inside knowledge as an 'ex-journalist'. I think it is valid to question that claim. You have now admitted it was 17 years ago, so not current.

But also, there are many journalists - the majority of the profession? - who have no idea about the RF and their contacts. How do you get that knowledge?

That's putting aside the issue of random commentators on SM claiming to be their fantasy figures. I am a famous Hollywood actress, but won't give my name as I want to protect my privacy... but I can confirm that Meghan is auditioning for a high profile role, because we have the same agent...

When?

What are you so obsessed with me?

They can’t stand playing second fiddle
so got loads of positive attention dating, marriage,baby
then the media diverted attention back to kate and Meghan realised she was relegated
at that point toys out of pram

Thank you.

They're not touting themselves to the highest bidder are they?!!

Oh come off it, of course people have a view on those in the public eye!! Disingenuous to suggest that's not the case!

Probably for the same reason you continually defend Meghan but I am pretty sure I have never seen you do the same with Catherine.

I assume they will sue, in that case.

Well you're hardly a master of your craft if you don't know that the late Queen endorsed Camilla being crowned Queen Consort a few months before her death.

What evidence do you have that Camilla had any part in the selection of Diana to be Charles's wife?

What a crock!

@SooooHungry Even Fergie and Andrew have never taken the piss out of the queen or trashed the royal family publicly in quite the same way.

I think that's a questionable assertion. I agree, perhaps that the worst Fergie did was the toe-sucking incident, but Andrew's conduct has shamed his family far more than Harry.

Nope, still nonsense!! You need better sources! 😂

You worked there then?

How noble.

Jesus, a bit like Meghan and Harry, you don't have a close relationship with facts do you?

I have news for you. All Queens, unless reigning in their own right like the late QE2, are Queen Consorts.

Fuck me, the irony!!

I agree @CeceliaImrie and I'm no fan of Camilla the Tampon Queen nor Charles who fucked over Diana Spencer.

Ditto. I agree also.
