I’m not on Instagram but apparently the As Ever NY clothing company have had to turn off comments on their posts on there due to the severity of abuse from the sewer squad.

Oh my god 😮! That's awful! How upsetting.

That is truly appalling

How do you know?

RecoIIectionsMayVary · 19/02/2025 17:40

I don't think that is true, I certainly can post on their IG (although am new to it all) and most of the posts are supporting asevernyc

Uricon2 · 19/02/2025 17:42

I've just checked the Instagram page, I'm not a whiz on it at all but it looks like the comments are still on and I'd say overwhelming supportive of asevernyc.

This is a good thing, it would be terrible for a small business to be affected by this.

RecoIIectionsMayVary · 19/02/2025 17:44

Actually, the brand last posted in October 2023- and they don't have many items for sale so I'm not sure how active it actually was.

Which makes it worse, a bit of research, conversation and money could have probably solved this issue.

Well from the Mayor of Porreres has said - " Ms Mora pointed out that jam is also one of Porreres' local specialities. 'We have the best jam in the world,' she said, adding that 'the farmers will be happy' if Meghan decides to market the town's jam." thanks @BasiliskStare .

Actually, if M had any savvy she could turn this into a positive. Trip to Porreres (which looks jolly nice) with cameras, meet the mayor, meet local farmers/jam producers, maybe even develop a line with them to sell (as clearly the homespun "made it myself" approach is canned) learn a bit about local cooking, show off the town (they've got Salvador Dalis on display, not bad for a place of 5000 people) Maybe a bit about how she accidentally designed something that closely resembled their crest, apologies, so glad this act of serendipity has lead to her visiting such a beautiful place. Donation to local charity.

I'm not sure she could pull this off though, TBH and is of course much more likely to ignore the whole thing.

that would be such a good solution

Not true. But hey, let's spread false rumours, shall we?

Uricon2 · 19/02/2025 18:00

Actually @Mightymoog , I sort of wonder if she had done that as the premise of a Netflix series, going out and meeting artisan producers and commissioning things from them, ethical trade that will benefit communities, bit about the different areas, it might be rather more engaging than making bloody ladybird canapes and having tea parties.

The purchased goods could have been the basis of the commercial enterprise and as it would be small quantities, far more Goop like than anything we're seeing at the moment.

Oh that’s good. The royal crowd on X were posting about it is all.

On what basis are her supporters abusing this chap .

Ooops just seen Mummy's post (added in edit )

But this is far too good of an idea.

Thanks @Recollections. I'm a retired local government lifer 😂with zero business/marketing/television experience and I can't see why she/one of her myriad advisers couldn't have come up with something along these lines, which would have been more dignified, far less likely to attract criticism (and cynically, ticked her humanitarian box as well)

I'm not sure she has the right sort of personality for it but perhaps Harry could have helped.

If I ever find myself wealthy and famous and looking for an outlet - I'm going to run my ideas past MN- so much great advice on here.

There are some barneys going on in their comments though between Kate stans and Meghan stans. So tedious, both sets of them…

Yes getting carried away and believing false rumours is not on is it?
But should definitely be forgiven.

StartupRepair · 19/02/2025 20:18

Why they can't live a pleasant rich life under the radar is because Meghan has a pathological thirst for fame, crowds and adulation. Harry doesn't mind them either. They are the perfect candidates for purchasing awards for themselves.
The problem is that they believed the crowds they drew when first married were in response to their own innate amazingness and would remain dazzled whatever they did. Turns out that was not the case.

To be fair, I did believe it after they bullied and harassed the Trussell Trust. If they’ll do that, they’ll target anyone.

jeffgoldblum · 19/02/2025 20:49

Don't worry @MummyJ12 , it could be true , and if it's not , it's probably about to be !
Particularly as past examples have shown ❤️

Stickystickysticky · 19/02/2025 21:04

A point I've seen brought up elsewhere - apparently people that subscribed to ARO have all now been transferred to As Ever . I have no idea how all this works, but should she have given people the chance to unsubscribe, maybe they don't want to follow the new account.

Ohpleeeease · 19/02/2025 21:08

That’s interesting as I seem to remember the Sussexes wanting this when they changed their account on either Twitter X or Instagram, they wanted to migrate all their followers and were told they couldn’t.

Stickystickysticky · 19/02/2025 21:10

There is no option to unsubscribe from As Ever either

Jacquettes · 19/02/2025 21:28

dorathexplorer · 19/02/2025 12:15

Oh yes I have seen that too.

Where have you seen it?
