Harry's new interview 2

[Viviennemary]

I just thought I would start second thread since I noticed the first one is full. It has certainly dominated media reporting. I saw a snippet on Sky news earlier. A document from Harry saying its a dereliction of duty to stop his security. Erm who just whizzed off to the USA and left all the duties behind. I havent watched the whole interview. I wonder if he'll appeal again.

You’re a product of your upbringing & what’s role modelled so perhaps if she lacks the grace, kindness & inherent class of other socially ambitious women it’s not her fault. Kate Middleton perhaps?

I see someone who felt othered, marginalised, socially inferior at her Prep & maybe even plain & unattractive as a youngster. She decided to play her hand of cards as well as she could and was determined never to settle for suburban mediocrity. She became a poised beautiful successful actress. A stepping stone. For those that doubt that the competition for any role in a show like Suits, insane.

She has a sort of ruthless ‘I’ll show them’ ambition which is/has taken her a long way.. Her alleged ‘vision boards’ with him/rich conquests on them, perhaps they were real? Her manifesting seems to work especially coupled with her A type personality & worth ethic. An Alan Sugar determination. A manifesting course I’d but into more than flower sprinkles. On a rain soaked UK morning on way to B&Q for garden fencing to mend a hole etc or knee deep in family washing who can blame her?

H is a ‘fox’, well perhaps he does have rather a ‘foxy’ look but not in the context of her audience’s first thought I imagine. Does she love the bones of the man? ‘He worships me & loves me so, so much’ My daughter has ‘blue, blue eyes’. These are great but they alone represent shallow, superficial trappings. A real love match brings so much happiness & fulfilment it’s worth trading for unimagined richness & worship in the sun. Most of the time, anyway ;)

*’buy’ into & ‘work’ ethic re: above.

Meghan has settled for "suburban mediocrity", but I don't see a problem with that. It's about promoting her husband, showing happy scenes with her children and focusing on clothes and the kitchen. That's her choice, at at least she's earning money by herself and not by selling gossip about the royals. I think it's a positive move. The kind of acting she was involved in did not have longevity, so I think this sort of trad wife/influencer thing is more her bag. If she can make a living from it, good luck to her.

I’m posting this here because I’ve no idea where else to post - it’s an article about Meghans Instagram pic featuring a back view of a Harry and the children. I hadn’t thought much about it after giving it a quick glance but the article has a very interesting slant on it that I think captures Meghans or Harry’s intent perfectly.

Don’t disagree with any of that & if that’s ‘suburban mediocrity’ with multi millions in Montecito, bring it on…She’s trying to make a living good for her. As you say.

It’s behind a paywall and the reader function no longer works. Anyone know why?

That article is behind a paywall, can you repost?

Can you give the gist please as I don’t want to subscribe. I assume the slant is Harry and the kids turning their back on the U.K.? Well don’t let the door hit you on the way out!

edit spelling

I can see it's not live because I can see the edit breaks.

I've arranged interviews for clients under embargo before and it's never been a problem, the media outlet in question will respect the embargo.

I've never done it for a SC judgement and hopefully others more knowledgeable than me can opine on that. But I have done it for other types of embargo where there would be legal consequences if it was broken. It's fine and it's pretty common.

Someone leaked or we wouldn't know about it

There is a big difference between a media embargo and a court embargo though. The same rules don’t apply.

I said as soon as I saw her interviews she’d be an ideal Real Housewife’s material.
All about her, inauthentic but beautifully styled and side hustles and family off camera.

@NewAgeNewMe @IsoldeWagner it doesn’t say anything new. Just someone commenting to the reporter it’s a “fuck you” photo. The rest of the article is about Harry’s protection and that he already knew after Charles funded it for a year he’d be paying for his own.

Sorry about the paywall. Will try to work it out.

Very interesting, thank you. Harry is so deceptive about everything, isn't he?

In his book, Tom Bower claims that Meghan had always tried to get on to a Real Housewives type of show. It strikes me that really would suit her.

Don’t you have to sell your soul for cat fight spats? She tried for Made in Chelsea, maybe Spencer Matthews could have been H.

He gets security when in the UK so maybe one of them leaked it. Perhaps they were peed off when a deliveroo guy turned up out of the blue. Just a hypothesis.

Yes, but you're on tv all the time and making the tabloids and magazines. Some people want that.

Worth it for the commercial return on your businesses/side hustles I guess (?) Networking ops? Do they pay well?

I don't think it pays well (I don't really know), but as you say, it's good for promotion and side hustles. Plus, some people just like being on TV!

These screenshots are the best I can do. The first one refers to the pic and the intention behind it and the second one is a comment on Meghan. The rest of the article does cover a lot of the same ground we’ve read before but I’ll disagree with a previous poster who claims the article said nothing new. It did.

Thanks, @Weepixie . That picture makes their garden look awful, which I'm sure it isn't!

@IsoldeWagner I didn’t really pay much attention to the pic because my initial reaction was that it looked rather creepy/eery so I scrolled on.

I think the person who said it was the biggest f**k you to got it spot on but far from being angered by the f you (aimed at all of us probably) I laughed over my breakfast when I ran the RF through my mind one by one imagining how they’d say it.

Let them get on with it. If the daily Instagram pictures to show off the children, and the posed images to show they're a happy family are important to them, fine. It's all a bit performative for me.

It might not be their garden !
