To be fair , the rest of the Royals are just plodding along undertaking visits etc while H and M provide endless publicity stunts to discuss . They really are the gift that keeps on giving .
I don’t hate them . I dislike a lot of their behaviour . I dislike them monetising their titles . But I do enjoy the entertainment they provide.

That is exactly it!

I have had a few days not posting. its interesting looking at this topic , I think MN HQ really need to rename it as its just a H&M bash topic now.

Not quite - you have brought in your weak attempt at bash the Waleses in a childish tit for tat .

Hey, Catherine's had cancer and they need downtime. They shouldn't have to huddle up in a tent somewhere

yeah, yeah, young kids, work hard, been ill blah blah blah

seems fine to go on a skiing holiday.....

Why do you hate William and Catherine but adore 4 car motorcade trip to the theatre Megan and her hapless husband Harry? I’m intrigued to know

does she adore meghan?

I would hazard a guess and say yes

Been ill blah blah blah ? That's a very insensitive post regarding someone who was gravely ill with cancer. It doesn't say much about you other than it shows your desperation to try to be one up for the Sussexes.

glitterturd · 14/04/2025 12:49

@Mightymoog I see you have taken yourself to a new level with your post to @Mylovelygreendress. I have reported this as it shows contempt for that poster and I am so sorry for her to have to see that flippant response.

Why do you find it so impossible to believe that people can dislike both? The motorcade is obviously ridiculous. The 3 holidays since Christmas is also ridiculous.

I think you have confused me with somebody else.
I loathe the whole concept of the monarchy.
I think H and M are a pair of embarrassing tools.

It is possible to have both opinions.

No I have certainly not confused your posts about cancer with someone else.

You think I am a cheerleader for H and M.
That is very far from my opinion aso I can only conclude you are confusing me with somebody else.

Mightymoog · 14/04/2025 13:02

How do you know she was gravely ill btw?
I thought medical information was private?
Or did she give out details in order to draw attention to cancer?
I was hoping she would use her position for that.

glitterturd · 14/04/2025 13:19

@Mightymoog you have already had two posts about cancer deleted on this thread. I'm not engaging with a person like you anymore on this topic.

I never said you can’t dislike both sets but it seems to me on a lot of what has been said on this thread the Markle fans see no wrong in either of their behaviour and seem to actively dislike the P &PW.

You don’t have to say on here but I hope you are doing well now having kicked cancer’s butt.

TulipTiptoer · 14/04/2025 13:56

I don't dislike them. Why can a poster not say that they think a holiday a month is a bit much without it being labelled as 'dislike'.. They are funded to some degree by the taxpayer and every british citizen is quite at liberty to say what they like and what they don't like about how the Institution functions. That's democracy for you 🤣
Charles, who is 76 and who appears to be undergoing ongoing cancer treatment, carries out far more engagements. I just would like to see william and kate step up to the plate more, if only to support Charles.
And this is irrelevant to Harry and Meghan who aren't working members of the royal family. They can plough their own field!

CurlewKate · 14/04/2025 14:06

@MunnygirlYou appear to have an uncanny back for reading people’s thoughts! I do find using words like “hate” and “adore” about people we know very little about very strange.

BemusedAmerican · 14/04/2025 14:20

I work in a very wealthy neighborhood in NYC. It is currently spring break due to Passover and Easter. Many local families are out of town. They also went away for Christmas and Winter Recess. I think it's great that they are actually spending time with their children as so many of the ones that I see spend their days by their nannies.

Due to the nature of my job, I get lots of paid vacation compared to the average New Yorker. I feel absolutely no guilt using my own vacation time.

CurlewKate · 14/04/2025 14:28

@BemusedAmerican I’m not sure how many days paid holiday the Wales’ get. Do you know?

I don' t "adore" H&M. is that the best you have? I also don't hate &W&K. yes I think they are lazy, but I don't hate or dislike them, why would I, they are perfectly nice people. but I do question why they do so little.

this topic is called the Royal family, yet its just full of threads slagging off H&M.

Well sometimes that is how it comes across in your posts. But haven’t you just “slagged off” W &K for being lazy?

I do agree with most of what you have just said apart from the H and M bit. Those two do seem to love a faux royal tour. I wonder if Charles is trying to make the absolute most of his reign whilst he can and his health permits? I think given everything he does seem to be enjoying himself.
