Continuing the on from the As ever thread

  • Funny article from Jan Moir

  • Turns out Chrissy wasn’t the only known bully that Meg invited onto the show. David Chang has serious anger issues and has bullied staff

  • Megs new show hasn’t appeared in the Top ten on NF in the UK or US, which she had done for the first series. NF aren’t promoting it other that in the ‘new this week’ section. You also have to scroll along to find it.

Meghan Markle’s shameless PR stunt with David Chang is disgusting

Because she wanted to faff around in Windsor Castle and was told no. She was allegedly told by the Queen to not pick on a gardener so faffing around in the royal gardens was out. She didn't like any of Harry's friends, so lots of possible socializing was out. She also allegedly has no interest in art, theater, classical music or baking, which eliminates a lot of possible ways to spend time and meet people. If she had stayed in the UK, they should just have had her visit farmers markets and open air markets. She apparently likes those.

Yes, her declared dream, her total fantasy ambition, if she were incognito (which she says she is in Montecito …) is to ‘go grocery shopping every day’ <excited clap> as she ‘loves grocery shopping’.

Well said!

I don’t think they did do a good job with him though, because he is spoilt, petulant and immature. Yes the PR people did a good job, but he clearly wasn’t brought up well.

Yeah, she claims to 'miss' grocery shopping? Apparently because she's too famous to go to the supermarket?

She really does live in her own little bubble, doesn't she? She's a C list influencer married to the 5th in line. People far more famous than her manage to go grocery shopping and do other 'ordinary' stuff without hassle.She really wants everyone to think she's constantly pursued and needs high level security wherever she goes.

Like Harry. He needs the tax payers to.provide 24/7 armed Protection in the UK, and it is far too dangerous for Meghan and the children.

As opposed to go low key and slip under the radar, as so many celebs do.

Funny that it wasn’t too dangerous when they CHOSE to live here and have their first child here.

Also it wasn’t too dangerous when they CHOSE to bring both of their DCs back for The Jubilee and actively courted the media by issuing photos of their DDs “back yard” first birthday party and declaring the location.

FleurDeFleur · 31/08/2025 08:03

Yes and it wasn't too dangerous for Harry to knock on random people's doors when looking for a mate.

Good lord, does she not realise how vacuous and out of touch she sounds? She really is like Marie Antionette. There's a good reason online grocery shopping exists and is so popular. It's like that rubbish about loving the school run. Don't get me wrong there are times when it is tolerable, but no one who does it day in day out loves the school run. She is desperate to be down to earth, but becomes more out of touch every day.

Thank you for the book recommendations!

It's all about what she can't do, isn't it?

She can't read because she's so incredibly busy. She can't go grocery shopping because she's such a huge megastar. And she can't go 'backpacking' because of 'security'. I can't think of any other high profile person who talks like this. It's almost as if she wants to convince the world of how special she is.

FleurDeFleur · 31/08/2025 08:55

Plenty of people richer and more famous than her do ordinary stuff.

Well, that’s both funny and a bit ridiculous, considering Catherine has been seen doing the grocery shop at local supermarkets plenty of times since marrying William. And yes—shockingly enough—she even takes the kids along sometimes!

marcopront · 31/08/2025 09:00

Was it Chrissy Teigen who didn’t know her children’s birthdays and so had them tattooed on her arm but couldn’t read the tattoo?

Does Megan really think she is authentic on this programme?

FitatFifty · 31/08/2025 09:19

There are often pap shops of A listers shopping in supermarkets, using the subway/underground. I saw Emily Blunt saying she can walk around Brooklyn, people do a double take and then leave you alone.
I wonder how many years she can keep talking like this, no one cares. Is that the point of living in a wealthy area is that you can have a bit of normality.
they are so desperate to be W&C, although C still manages to take her children to B&M. Diana used to take the boys to McDonalds. They seem determined to give their children a totally closeted childhood, sad.

elessar · 31/08/2025 09:57

She’s such a liar, and she even contradicts herself in the same interview when the interviewer asks if they can go out without being bothered and she says yes, all the time in Montecito and Santa Barbara, going out with friends and on date nights with “H”

And then shortly later she’s going on about how she wishes she could go grocery shopping every day because she misses it so much.

well which is it Meghan?! Her narrative changes by the minute.

I actually think both things are untrue. I suspect she and Harry don’t go out from their mansion that much, but I don’t think that’s because they’re so mega famous that they can’t go to grocery stores, bars, restaurants etc without being harassed. I think that’s Meghan manifesting the narrative she wants to portray, which is on the one hand that she and Harry are living the dream as popular social butterflies, beloved in their community with loads of friends - and on the other hand that they’re such mega stars that they couldn’t possibly do a normal activity like shopping without being harassed by crowds of adoring fans. It requires some cognitive dissonance not to realise you look foolish by trying to claim that both things are true.

She’s often seen with the children in a shop called The Range just before the start of a new school year.

I know she was seen shopping in Smiggle with the kids a few years ago. I’d post the photos but I’m not comfortable posting pap shots of the children.

Weepixie · 31/08/2025 10:27

@FitatFifty I saw Diana checking into a British Airways flight to Australia about a week after Charles had proposed to her. She was with her mum and they were lining up in the first or business queue just like everyone else. I recognised her but managed not to draw attention to her by my body language and though I could see a few others recognised her as well, no one said or did anything to blow her (non existent) cover so to speak.

Of course nowadays they have that VVIP suite for those travelling discreetly but if they had it way back then, not even being proposed to by Prince Charles got her in there.

Rather her than me! I would imagine she would be going to the one in Bracknell as it’s pretty close to where they live (and me). I will only go there if dd drags me there when she wants to buy tat.

Guess who’s going to get some lofty ideas ….now that we know the state of California is going to provide Kamala Harris’s security!!

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-15051397/kamala-harris-highway-patrol-secret-service.html

You just know he’ll try it. We already know he mentioned Gavins name when his ‘people’ contacted the NYPD about an update on the ‘car chase’ investigation.

Kamala Harris to receive protection from unlikely source

Law enforcement sources said that California officials stepped up to offer further protection to Harris her extended Secret Service protection came to an end.

She's bonkers. The woman who will be the actual Queen at some point was often seen in Sainsburys and The Range in Kings Lynn when they lived in Norfolk, with her children in tow. Why would anyone even be interested in seeing Markle buying washing powder?

They also shopped normally when they lived as a couple in Anglesey when William served as a search and rescue pilot in the RAF - it was reported Kate was often seen at the local supermarket
