Megs gift shop wine

As per the DM, we are told Meg is using Fairwinds Estate winery for her rose. Sounds nice.
But a Reddit user has discovered, that Fairwinds winery is just a brand under the umbrella of Wine gift shop. They do corporate gifts and print on demand. Oh Meg, as ever

Why are there quality street wrappers chucked in the wine bucket?

AtIusvue · 30/06/2025 16:42

Oft! That’s not a good pic of Meg!

The box hedge doesn’t look in great health, who wants to see dead leaves. Suppose thats what you get when you use it to display ice buckets with wine and bloody sprinkles.

I believe the term coined was “ disaster tourists” !

Absolutely.

Trampling on a fire scene. Wasting fire fighter's time. All for a photo op.

The disaster tourists hold no political office. They were not raising visibility...the fires were already on 24-7 across all news channels. They have no significant money to donate as they are broke relative to their far wealthier neighbours.

But they got their photo op.

ARO was launched during the Diana awards. No trademark, no business nothing but an announcement to be associated with Diana.

Wine launch on Diana's birthday, despite Diana being killed by a drunk driver.

All the vibes in the world won't change reality...the pair are ghouls dragging a corpse around for profit.

Diana was a beautiful and tragic memory, consigned firmly to the past, before H&M started using her up at any given opportunity to further their financial aims - because every time they have mentioned her, there is money going into their pockets.

I wonder how Harry feels about his mother's memory now being associated with cheap, shitty alcohol. Or does he just count to dollars?

Something something derailment.

You seem to be confused!
you have bulldozed your way onto a thread and been insulting and attacked every other poster, your devotion to a bully and a liar is not shared here, and you call other people’s posts a derailment!
you are as disingenuous as your heroine.

I can’t get over the cringe of MM putting herself out there as a female founder. Naming a podcast “Confessions of…”, as though she has secrets from being a founder that need to be revealed. She’s not a founder AT ALL, let alone a noteworthy one. She’s just play acting, going toe to toe with real ones. You have to wonder at her grasp of reality. I don’t think she has much. Probably how she’s still going despite the massive negativity she gets daily, online and in print, from all quarters including the ones she respects. Her capacity for believing in her own bullshit is endless.

I suspect that the main way MM rubs people up the wrong way, be they staff or family members or PR agents or potential business partners or any of the myriad people we’ve heard of over the years, is that - like Confessions Of - she conducts herself in front of them as though she knows better than them about their areas of expertise. She was going to be more royal than the royals. She was going to be the best philanthropist. She was going to champion women like nobody else. She was going to do royal tours better than any royal ever even though she’s barely royal herself. She was going to “partner” with Flamingo Estates, “collaborate with” QE2 because don’t you know she’s just as good as them. She will embody Montecito like nobody else, especially not those who have lived there for generations. She’s the most entrepreneurial of all the entrepreneurs, so much so that she will tell them under the guise of interviews exactly how great an entrepreneur she is without hearing what they have to say. It’s like lying on your CV as an actress: sure I can ride a horse, give me the role! I’ll figure it out when I get there, and if it’s a disaster I’ll move onto the next role.

I think women like that Jamie Lima lady, her gal pals, Delfina married to Harry’s polo pal etc, are either of low self esteem/willing to diminish their fire, or are desperate for some
royal dust and gossip. It’s also possible that actually Meghan could be a really good friend and lots of fun - but at these stage there’s so much baggage you’d really have to work at that friendship.

She’s a fraudster, a dissembler, a trickster with her oh-so-careful language. She’s a hustler straight out of a Dickens novel. So basic.

Weepixie · 30/06/2025 16:49

Honestly guys, we’re supposed to believe Tataler is way old enough to buy the wine tomorrow yet everything about their posts screams they’re anything but. I think if we were to meet them in real life we’d perhaps, out of politeness, humour them for a minute or so before moving on and thinking , why hasn’t anyone ever told them that not all attention is good attention?

I’m ignoring anything else from them going forward whilst hoping it’s their bedtime soon.

Meghan did have a source say on her behalf that she grew the fruit used in the the first drop though. Is that authentic?

Meghan produced limited edition honey and has twice showed us on her instagram her harvesting honeys from a hive, apparently her own hive. Is that authentic?

She now tells us she has spent months creating a bespoke blended rose. Is that authentic?

(I suppose it depends on your definition of authentic. If someone tells me they are lovingly recreating their favourite jam recipes, and then plonks a “Made with Love Jams and Preserves” label on some excess Tesco own brand stock, I don’t think that’s authentic, personally)

Sorry if I'm miles behind, @Serenster, but didn't she also use the 'HRH' style/title on a gift card for jam that was shown in the promotional podcast/video she did with Jamie Kern Lima? That was, to me, a clear commercial use of the title as M herself has claimed that her Business What She Founded (to channel Eric & Ern) grew directly out of her jam - i.e. they are intrinsically linked at the point of commercial branding.

She's perfectly fine. You are the one pissing yourself with excitement over some mass produced, white label plonk, because a D-list former actress has slapped her name on it.

You’re just lobbing Megs victim narrative at people and getting involved with a bit of booze promo.

Diana was a beautiful and tragic memory, consigned firmly to the past, before H&M started using her up at any given opportunity to further their financial aims - because every time they have mentioned her, there is money going into their pockets.

I wonder how Harry feels about his mother's memory now being associated with cheap, shitty alcohol. Or does he just count to dollars?

Dragging her corpse from its grave has resulted in fresh scrutiny and unfortunately Diana's good works in life are now being overshadowed by her personal issues:

-The 300 nuisance calls to married Oliver Hoare after their affair ended
-Being the other woman in Will and Julie Carling's marriage leading to their divorce
-The surfacing of the Pembroke affair before H's birth leading to more rumours about H's parentage
-Shoving stepmom Raine Spencer down the stairs during an argument...if Raine had fallen differently she could have died. And Diana was 28!
-The parentification of William, taking him to meet reporters, oversharing her love life, and depending on a child to comfort her.

What a needlessly negative move to launch an alcoholic beverage on Diana's birthday.

But what on earth would be the point of Meghan giving her time and energy to good works if there was no camera there (or failing that, at last an audience)? 😏

I haven’t seen any such scrutiny, genuinely.
