More and more these manic threads are popping up on mumsnet, wild posts and theories and then hundreds of posts brimming with excitement about catching them out or exposing them. It’s like a game or a hunt. Have many of you crossed the line from interested to addicted?

And not everyone who dares to criticise or not speak positively about them is a hater, no?

I haven’t mentioned the word hate on this thread actually.

Oh! Silly me! 😄 This is all a protest against the rich now!

So you direct as much criticism at the Royal Family then jeffgoldblum
as you do at H & M?

You can twist my comment all you like!
but you are the one who said that you would prefer it if people ignored articles and reports and stuck their in the sand!!!
and I’m not protesting anything! 🤣🤣
nice try though! 🤣

No, but that’s what the thread you are posting on is about, so… 🤷🏼‍♀️

He thought people would write about him smearing Elizabeth Arden on his penis while thinking of his mother????
how would anyone else know that?

Seeing as it involves Harry’s dead mother, I am not going to deign to address this comment.

I’m not a fan but….. . You may want to remember that it was one of their fans who made an appearance in court to “support “ Harry Styles hi was then ushered away

So many people saying “I’m not a fan of Harry and Meghan but…” God, they really are unpopular aren’t they? 🤭

Yes I did say that.

I don’t understand the rest of your comment I’m afraid.

How noble of you!!!
it’s a shame Harry didn’t feel the same moral compass when he wrote about it in great detail in his own book!

That’s fine , I find your posts difficult to understand too!

jeffgoldblum · 11/05/2025 13:16

I’m surprised that you would actually post this!!!
you have been here long enough to know that there has in fact been many!!
and that anyone criticising was hounded of in the past with cries of racism!

I have literally never seen a pro H&M thread started. I have seen a few pro H&M posts. And I have seen people posting critically about W&C being characterised as pro H&M. But a pro H&M thread? Must have missed them.

friendlycat · 11/05/2025 13:52

My view is that when people court publicity they invite comments. That’s just a fact of life.

When they moan about a fair amount of things from an extremely high position of privilege it naturally invites negative comments.

Others in the celebrity sphere who just go about their day to day lives don’t draw the amount of attention to themselves, thus remain more neutral in the public’s view and perception of them.

Really ?
there has been quite a few that went to 7 threads or more !
especially covering and praising their “royal” tours!

Don’t be so ridiculous! Of course they haves I’m sure Ive seen you on a couple

RockyRogue1001 · 11/05/2025 13:53

@CoffeeCantata i was very interested in the first comment you made of this thread (the one at 12:01) (I've not quoted it because it was so long).
And I was nodding along to it. Interesting points, well made, I was thinking

However, I very rarely see threads about the Royals. I actively avoid them, because I'm just not that interested.
If you're a regular commentator on either side, (and I haven't AS'd you to look), then I'm withdrawing my nods 🤣

Tallullahmakata · 11/05/2025 13:53

I don't hate them, like I would anybody, I wish them well. However, I can't deny that I find some of their behaviour and decisions absolutely fascinating. It's a bit like a soap opera to be honest. So I agree, it's compulsive reading, but I don't hate them. They're just people, ultimately flawed and fallible

Vespanest · 11/05/2025 13:57

The occasional reminder of spare, this book is not his truth but his emotional feelings which are according to Harry as important as objective facts. Unfortunately for anyone in his crossfire I think they would probably prefer the actual truth. Again why Harry is intriguing as he's a law onto himself. Grievances are not law and emotions are not facts., but they make good stories.

Lots of positive comments on Meghan’s fashion choices as a working royal.

SidekickSylvia · 11/05/2025 13:58

Most narcissists are intelligent enough to hide their true character from the public, but H and M are the only celebrities I can think of who display their narcissism so fully, so whole heartedly, that they demand a spotlight to be shone on every one of their own humiliations, because they believe them to be achievements.

It's amusing, that's all.

I think the addicted ones are the fans

I don't think there are actual fans, there's nothing likable about them. It's people who dislike the royal family (which is fair enough, its been common for hundreds of years for people to dislike that set up) and therefore like people who cause drama and also dislike the royal family.
It's the common the enemy of my enemy is my friend thing.

They are never quiet!!
even when they are not overtly parading themselves, their mouthpieces and pr are feeding titbits to the media!
Or did you think scoobie got all his inside information from a clairvoyant!!!

And the media lap it up! No one tells them to publish these stories that are apparently fed to them, or to go on their Instagram account or to watch Meghans Netflix show. They do it because the traffic these two bring to any site is absolutely huge. Traffic brings them money. Traffic comes overwhelmingly from people saying ' why won't they go away?' ' Why are they doing this/that/fake pregnancy blah blah blah' How much have they actually done ( particularly Meghan who seems to be doing her own thing yet gets the blame for Harry's behaviour) They are still doing stories about the wedding ffs 7 years ago. If the people obsessed with every single thing these people did stopped commenting endlessly on every little thing, they would go away too. It's ridiculous to say that the interest is because they are trying bring down the Monarchy. God if the 5th in line to the throne and his wife can bring down an establishment like the Monarchy that has the entire British establishment protectingvthem then they must know some pretty horrific things. More horrific than being constanyly being taken in by sex offenders, plotting with Hitler, The King slagging off his own parents, multiple affairs and divorces etc etc. If anything, they are human shields, protecting the Monarchy from too much scrutiny.

You have to be pretty addicted to the cause to start a thread like this 😂😂😂😂😂

It was Diana who had the multiple affairs and the run in with the police for nuisance calls
