The marching of the Kings californian grandkids

[Thedom]

Wish I could go back and find all those posters who predicted a Kardashian-esqe social media blitz at some point in H&M's future, wonder where are all the posters who we're so affronted by the very idea of that.

People magazine and all, the uber celeb magazine.

I guess needs must with the downfall of her business efforts, \oh look, here are my kids whose privacy we have decided to forego for the greater good of taking the heat off what a crap business woman I am'.

Epic levels of grandiosity and delusion on display now, and hypocrisy of course, they really are something else 🤦‍♀️

It would all be so funny if there weren’t two small children involved. To think Harry had the nerve to judge how the Waleses are bringing up their three, out of the media except for special occasions, surrounded by a large, close family, including ‘normals’ on their mother’s side, lots of cousins to play with. We know very little about them, have never seen their bath time photos, and quite right too.

Sounds as if Meredith Maines has been taking communication hints from Meghan rather than the other way round. Talk about word salad.

The wonder is why these people go to work for them in the first place.

I know?! Why can't these people talk normally?

How many staff do W and C have ? I assume H and M think they need as many ( if not more ).

Sounds like they’re cutting costs by using a PR agency on a retainer- and not having full time dedicated PR relations in house

Which is sensible

Global time zones, puleeease.

What a load of tosh! 🙄

It’s a tech PR firm though, that seems a weird choice

😂Global superstars! Or a Trad Wife and a lazy man child? 😂

Rumour would have it there was a rigorous internet scrubbing when it comes to La Twerkle's past.

Why are their insanely expensive PR people always on the back foot?

More info from the Sun. That it was the new PR group behind the twerking video and the new strategy is to produce clickbait.

All the names of the purge of staff below 👇

The Sun:

‘THE Duke and Duchess of Sussex have given their communications team the boot after blaming them for a series of PR humiliations.
Harry and wife Meghan decided instead to go with the firm behind their controversial twerking video — sparking fears of a “clickbait” approach which will horrify the Royal Family.

Last night a source told The Sun: “Meghan and Harry always blame everyone else and never themselves.
“No one ever seems to be good enough for them and yet they fail to understand why things don’t change.”
This year’s embarrassments included January's take-down of Meghan in society bible Vanity. It reignited bullying allegations and was headlined “American Hustle”.
In February experts described as chaotic the rebranding of Meghan’s “American Riviera Orchard” food brand into “As ever”.
Her six-part Netflix cookery and lifesyle show was savaged by TV reviewers in both the UK and USA, while her podcast “Confessions of a Female Founder” quickly tumbled down the ratings.

The Sussexes responded by firing two directors of communications in what insiders described as a purge. UK-based Charlie Gipson went along with California-based Kyle Boulia.
Deesha Tank, who worked for the couple’s Archewell foundation for three years, had resigned days earlier. Meanwhile the head of content for Meghan’s Instagram account also left.’

I would guess and here's where we need @GiveMeSpanakopita

All the people they have hired haven't been round long enough to come up with a strategy - not least mayhap because H&M don't seem to have one. So H&M seem to spend more as least as much time firefighting as they do putting forward a vision of how they want to be perceived.

I think and I am sorry I can't remember the poster who mentioned it M expected doors to be opened because of her name / title. Well they were. So she was right. The problem seems to be that individually , beyond RF gossip , they are writing promises in their names / titles their talent can't cash.

They will be fascinating for years to come but how that translates into money is a different matter. & It does seem for M money is The Thing - even more than they have.

I suspect this new iteration of "Staff" using agencies is cheaper - But I don't know.

Why their PR are people are on the back foot - it sounds to me like working for my young Border Terrier. "Do you want to think about it and have 3 treats tomorrow or do you want one now?" BT - what's tomorrow? I'll have it now. I apologise for the slur on those with strategic terriers 😂🐾

So by the sounds of it- they got rid of their IG content person….because Meg wasn’t getting massive hits and only had 3 point Something million followers. Which for 6 months in, was bad.

So they’ve sacked the PR guys and the IG person and the new PR firm have a new strategy, which is clickbait.

And it worked- she got 42 million views for the video and the kids Disney trip did well too. So it’s def going to be more content like this. The question is, how low will she go? How long will Harry let her sell the kids childhoods for?

There’s bound to be something on SM tomorrow. Probably including the DC.

I question whether a 'clickbait' approach would 'horrify' the RF - it does rather justify their decision to keep a distance, and suggests H&M's criticisms weren't necessarily from the pure moral high ground!

Exactly, it was the new PR firms idea to put out this video. They’ve literally gone through megs n Harry’s phones to find viral content. How embarrassing.

Desperate 🙄

I don't foresee peace and contentment in their near future which is such a shame because that genuinely is what I would want for them.

It’s pretty fascinating to watch to be honest although horrifying at the same time. Just how is it possible to make such a mess of all the privilege they have been handed on a plate .

I love the idea that every time zone is breathlessly waiting on more clickbait.

😂

I can't think of anyone else who has done that, with such a spectacular fall.

It must be quite odd for them in Montecito, which I assume is full of very rich, talented and high-achieving people. They are no longer royal adjacent, have no talent to speak of, they’re relatively poor, Harry doesn’t seem to do anything and Meghan in her 40s is trying to make a living as an influencer on social media. And failing, just as she has also failed as a business owner, television producer, presenter, podcaster, writer and philanthropist. Meanwhile they are a laughing stock all over the world. I bet the locals don’t know where to look 🫣

The locals are oblivious to them
