Where's Doria?

She used to attended public social events with H&M - cant remember the last one? She always comes across as classy and calm - I wonder how she deals with it all? Think she had a tough enoughh time in her early marriage to an older man with difficult teenage step children. Do we know if she remarried or had a partner after Thomas?

This is exactly what I referred to on another thread. A poster said that MM was fame-hungry and could have just retreated into a quiet life, getting on with things and would be left alone.
Even when she is under the radar/not seen for a while or in this case, her mum, who to my knowledge has never courted publicity, there's always this kind of thread appearing.
You want them to have a quiet life and yet, when Doris tries to, it's questioned.

Very respectful when you can't even be bothered to get her name correct.

BustingBaoBun · 19/02/2025 16:58

So what she hasn't been seen? She's hardly Mother of the future Queen! Why can't she live a quiet life, enjoying her grandchildren, and doing her thing whilst being private.

How do you know she doesn’t want to be seen?
Wind my neck in? No 😁

BustingBaoBun · 19/02/2025 17:08

Because she hasn't been seen?

Just a thought

kingtamponthefurred · 19/02/2025 17:14

Maybe she wants to distance herself from the whole toxic mess. Or just does not enjoy mass media attention. Most normal people don't.

tarheelbaby · 19/02/2025 17:26

Well, really, where are any of the mothers?!
Think of any celebrity and then think when did you last see their mother? or father, for that matter? Where is Brad Pitt's mother? Julia Roberts' mother? Sabrina Carpenter's mother? (obvs, Taylor's mother and father are home growing Christmas trees ASAP for next Christmas)

Probably, like Carole and the mothers of hundreds of other 'celebrities', Doria is just trying to live her life.

Just because she was photographed looking friendly with Kris Jenner, it doesn’t mean that she’s anything like KJ. Meghan and her mum probably get along well because she’s not an embarrassing figure trying to get media attention like Kate’s Uncle Gary or the Markles.

Thank you for that thought. It is a possibility, but it may be because she’s too busy looking after the kids to be able to get out.

Yeah you just want to speculate and imply not very nice things. Just revealed your true motivation.

You could say the same about Meghan. I mean she loves the limelight and comes across quite cringe to some sometimes.

And again what? You want me to ‘wind my neck in’? For having an opinion that obviously doesn’t fit your own?

Yet I have said nothing bad about Doria..
You speculate too 🤷‍♀️ It’s a normal human trait.
I just don’t see things how you see them. That’s life.

JoyousGreyOrca · 19/02/2025 16:34

Doria has been at a tiny number of events with her daughter. The last one I can find is May 2023. So going to an event every few years with her daughter means you want the right to speculate over her private life and criticise her?
Wow!!

I cant see anyone criticising her and I my intention was not to encourage any negative speculation. I was / am curious about her - I think she has led an interesting life and comes across as wise, dignified and calm. I asked when she was last seen in public and someone provided that info.

She does have a public profile - think she attended a royal visit (Grenfell cookbook?) with MM before they left the RF? She also made quite a significant contribution to the H&M Netflix docuseries where I thought she came across as compassionate and gentle. Maybe she has since made a conscious effort to retreat from public life or maybe she will feature again in WLM?

I am curious about her as married and had a child young with an older man and that marriage failed - so I hope she had support and a good life after.

Really op, you didn’t start this thread in the hope she would get bashed, i mean this is the Meghanbash topic.

BustingBaoBun · 19/02/2025 18:27

That should be the end of the thread then! If I was curious about Doria (which I'm not) and when she was last seen, I would not be starting a thread on it, I would be googling it to find out myself.

Because starting a thread about it ends up with posters saying 'she's probably out on her ear' as a way to have a dig at Meghan and her.

Exactly and since google has an AI overview to do all the hard work for you so you don't need to trawl the Internet why would you think a bunch of strangers would know.

I agree with you it's just an excuse to have another thread to bitch about Meghan.

TinklySnail · 19/02/2025 19:24

JoyousGreyOrca · 19/02/2025 16:52

@TinklySnail The whole point is Doria does NOT put herself in the public eye, hence the whole point of this thread about where is she and what is she doing.

And she first attracted lots of lies being told about her when she attended her daughters wedding. Do you think she was fair game as well then?

You appear overly sensitive about any perceived slight over Meghan’s mother.
I will continue to speculate about topics I feel like speculating over.
Doria DID put herself in the public eye. You can’t say she didn’t.

Agreed. Not one derogatory comment about Doria but according to some posters it’s awful to even speculate about her.

TinklySnail · 19/02/2025 19:32

JoyousGreyOrca · 19/02/2025 16:54

@TinklySnail you are contradicting yourself. You are saying you want to talk about Doris not being seen, straight after saying she is fair game because she is a "celebrity".

She is a private individual. A retired qualified social worker. She should not be the subject of rumours and speculation.

No you just can’t bear any discussion that you don’t agree with.
Shes Meghan’s mum, she will be a source for speculation.
If you don’t like that it’s tough.

We could all google for just about everything on MN though. It's not going to be something that people will see eye to eye on.

Wow, there are a lot of people determined to shut down debate on this thread!
