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.

Interestingly the US big Mack has 2,425 mg of salt !

We are going to get told to
Start our own thread 🍔🍔🍔🍔

You could be onto something, jeff. A new marketing career beckons!

😂😂 This thread is hilarious honestly, you’re all funny.

By myself hypocritically @NotaRealHousewife ! 😳

It must be a full time job responding to literally every poster on these threads. Not you obviously, @jeffgoldblum !

Ohh @Ohpleeeease .... I can see it now ... G&T health drinks by Jeff !
Jeff&t ?
G&jeff?

Yes, I drink quinine for its health benefits, the gin just er adds some depth

Too right. All celebs get made the subject of gossip and criticism. Since leaving the RF, H&M have descended to the level of B-tier reality celebs, and will be talked about accordingly.

I doubt very much they read threads like these. They are very busy people.

Apparently Harry’s “team” does the filtering for him and he no longer reads everything. Believe that if you like.

Can I ask one little question before I get back on topic ?

The name !

Is it that the people pop in and out for a burger ...or
Does the burger pop in and out of the person?

🤢😆

He doesn't need to read anything! I always tell my clients never to read any online comments about them, unless they're online influencers, in which case I provide a precis service if they prefer that.

If there's a genuine emerging issue, for example a client's customers are having genuine problems with a new product (e.g. faulty, below expected standard), then I'll advise them of that and we focus on how they plan to fix that issue,a and communicate that fix.

Anything else is just noise. Harry is a Royal and an A-List celeb. No way does he need to read what's online. And if he does, he's either badly advised, or seriously unwell.

Did his readers not bring the African parks scandal and subsequent comments to his attention?
Or will that be an excuse.

For all their blabbing about kindness, compassion and righting wrongs, African Parks seems to be an uncomfortable subject which - in true royal style - must be ignored

Which is probably another reason they decline to subject themselves to the more incisive interviewers ...

Yes no forthright interviews allowed for these two @Puzzledandpissedoff .
Only scripted content with pre approved questions!

Except on Oprah of course, where they claimed that H&M didn't know beforehand what questions were going to be asked

For all I know there may be some who actually believe it ...

We used to have a phrase to refer to it, but MN then took to deleting my posts that used that particular phrase. Shame, because it was a useful phrase.

Oh yes of course not Oprah 🙄 @Puzzledandpissedoff, however to my untrained eye I'd did seem to come as a surprise to Harry when he joined the chat !

Well that is why I was asking the person who made the comment when wa theblast time as I said I couldn't remember. I already confirmed I cant remember when the last time was.

I know you are a stickler for accuracy @Spectre8 - you didn't actually say you can't remember, you said you thought it was "quite some time". I wondered if you would confirm though that you agree Meghan has attacked Catherine? How specifically do you remember her doing that?

Snowdrops and daffodils already at Cliveden yesterday.

So that makes it ok then?

I think Harry was surprised by some of the questioning. Especially around the racism allegation. Either he didn't bother to review the brief provided or wasn't actully given one

Harry and Meghan mocked in front of the Netflix bosses at the Netflix new season launch (interestingly Meghan wasn’t there). John Mulaney was hosting.

‘Describing his own live talk show, which debuts on March 12 – just a few days after Meghan's series is due to launch – John Mulaney said: 'This will be the one place where you [might] see Arnold Schwarzenegger sitting next to Nikki Glaser sitting next to a family therapist with music by Mannequin Pussy…'This is a really fun experiment. Not since Harry and Meghan has Netflix given more money to someone without a specific plan.'

Hahaha! Obviously hit a nerve there! She doesn't like being called out does she?
