It’s been 14 hours since the launch of the 2024 Rose. Nothing has sold out. This is despite it being designed again as a scarcity drop, so it can’t be argued she’s finally got her stock levels right.

  • As ever stated the wine launch going ‘live’ at on the 5th August. Language designed to get you to rush and buy. Just like all this SM shopping you get now.
  • Meghan put out a message many hours ago, stating that they have so much more stock (sad clapback to stuff not shifting) but hurry and be quick because it’s selling fast!!! (It’s clearly not)
  • This launch however, has attracted very little press compared to previous drops

The scarcity gimmick is already tired and because she’s been absent from SM for 2 months…save for a few stock images/videos- she’s lost any momentum she had. She’s putting in bare minimum and her customer base feel it. She’s checked out.

There’s been talk of another series of WLM 3 and Meg getting a new NF contract, but I think that is just to fill the void until she can get WLM2 out. At which point, we will find out if there is any truth in any further deals.

The reason why I doubt WLM3, is that for continuity, you would need the same venue. But the home is now being used to to host weddings etc, it’s no longer a private rental but one open to the public to rent. There’s no way Meg would film in that location now. In addition she would need to have gotten the go ahead already for WLM3 and be filming right now to be able to stick to a schedule. The fact that it isn’t already confirmed, it’s giving the signal that WLM is over (in addition to knowing NF deal is done)

Now if WLM is over, I don’t think she has the draw to pull people to As ever. She doesn’t engage with her fan base enough, she does the bare minimum of SM posts, which she hasn’t even achieved the last few months. The Shopmy page is dead too. This is why the new wine launch has barely registered and hasn’t sold out 14 hours later. Yes, there will be more stock but it’s been designed for a sell out so there won’t be huge numbers.

As ever I think will be slowly wound down. There will be WLM2, with maybe another 18 months of drops. Then like everything else, it will be dropped quietly. Everyone is starting to get a bit bored by the half hearted, very beige effort she’s put into her ‘business’ and have tuned out.

She will have to launch yet another version of herself very soon. We’ve had actress, feminist, activist, producer, philanthropist….now female founder. God knows what’s next!

Is it legal to give the wrong region on the label?

Apparently not, Ellmau, but if it's another lie I suppose that at least it's less harmful than some she's told

I haven't got over the CT involvement yet. I also feel a new low was reached on here by some (or possibly just one) posters trying to defend her involvement.

Posters are allowed to express different opinions surely? I haven’t commented because I genuinely don’t know who this CT person is, but I gather this is about about seriously nasty internet comments.

Nonetheless, I don’t think it’s fair to constantly bring up the name of one poster multiple times; when their view is genuinely held, especially given the subject matter, and when they have defended that view many times. Fine if you don’t agree with it, but I’ve counted twelve or more posts now telling Spectre she is wrong; the point has been made, I don’t think it’s necessary to keep repeating it again and again.

As I say, I don’t know who this CT person is but someone here said she has millions of followers, so obviously lots of other people share Spectre’s viewpoint about rehabilitation. She is not alone in it. It’s a difference of opinion.

Nuns visit prisoners on death row fhs! Some people think that is right and some people think it’s very wrong. Not everyone shares the same opinion. And we don’t have to on here!

Resurrecting a theme of discussion, with an undercurrent of 'I ain't got a clue bruv' but with main intent of deliverng a drive-by scolding, nice!

Unfair! If that qualifies as a scolding, then some of you have been “scolding” Spectre for 12 to 15 posts now.

And I think you’ll find my post was in response to Pourtea
who was doing the resurrecting, not me!

But whatever!

Pourtea · 17/08/2025 20:34

Of course posters are allowed to express differing opinions @Ploachedplorridge - nowhere did I say they weren't. Different opinions make for interesting, and sometimes educational, conversations.

I too am allowed to express an opinion, and unusually for me, this is one I feel very strongly about. I am increasingly doubting the integrity of certain posters - do they actually hold the views they profess to, or are they trying to throw the cat among the pigeons?

There was a post on one of the threads on here some time back - maybe 2 months or so ago - where cancer was being discussed. A certain poster replied to another poster arguing a point the second poster had made, not realising that, in fact, the second poster held the same opinions generally re the royal family. The linguistic gymnastics the first poster used were quite something to behold. I've never been able to forget that incident 🤷‍♀️
I wish I could remember the name of the thread so I could link to it but sadly I can't!

CT outmanoeuvred M with the release of her food brand Cravings and her launch party...which conveniently excluded M.

CT co-opted M's true believers they either have to find fault with their 43% Nigerian idol or to screech about forgiveness and grace thereby rehabilitating CT...while these same true believers conveniently overlook the lack of forgiveness or grace extended to family such as Thomas Markle or friends such as Jessica Mulroney.

What a true LA "friendship" CT and M turned out to be. Amusing, as ever!

BemusedAmerican · 17/08/2025 21:31

I don't know anyone who bought the wine. It had to be bought in a minimum of three bottles. This meant a minimum of $90 plus shipping. I personally don't drink. My friends drink beer or cider. If I were going to buy wine, we have local vineyards selling at the farmer's market. I would rather support a Long Island vintner.

There were many discussions on reddit about the company supplying the wine by people who actually know the wine market. Wineries in CA are going bankrupt and being bought out. Possibly because people drinking wine is at an all time low in the US.

DearRichard Eden, the following is in reply to the comments attributed to Harry’s pal regarding Meghans tv show.

Dear Harry’s stooge, whilst I may not be classy enough to recognise the genius behind Meghans show on Netflix, I can certainly recognise a turkey when I see one.

Dear God, they never tire of embarrassing themselves.

Wine still available meanwhile Meghan is cooking more spaghetti while licking her fingers and then using the same on the food 🤮

As far as Netflix are concerned no, it really isn't.

Do we assume that new products will be launched to coincide with the new series ?
Website has been saying Raspberry Spread coming soon for months .

My first thought was prawn crackers, but I guess she means crisps?

QueenOfHertz · 21/08/2025 21:28

I think she’s making homemade crisps aka “chips”.

Weepixie · 21/08/2025 22:25

If that’s a still from the show then she’s making crisps. Thicker styled ones that by the look of it are being elevated to the highest levels of the stratosphere due to the peel has been left on the spuds.

I think I would have chosen a picture of them when they were more cooked. Thin slices of raw spud like that look revolting. More like anaemic radishes 😆

ThePoshUns · 21/08/2025 23:05

Have you seen the up cycled jam jars being used as vases? Astonishing, how did we not know this before?

Serenster · 21/08/2025 23:21

Genuine question about the home made potato crisps - what cooking oil is white like that? I can only think of coconut oil, which I wouldn’t use for crisps (ugh) or lard which I cannot imagine Megan would use. Most seed and vegetable oils that I know are yellow. What do Americans use??
