Online, people are pointing out that a very expensive cashmere jumper that Meg wore on suits, also made its way to her wardrobe

It’s been nothing but PR disasters of late.

What I have noticed which is curious - is that the UK tabloids are not running with P6 story about the dress. Just like they avoided talking about the NY car chase. They only reported on the media frenzy. But, we know Harry sent out some sort of memo not to publish photos etc. None of the UK press did. Now Meg has acknowledged the stolen dress story and released an official refute ….and none of the UK press are even reporting on that?

That’s weird. They will literally print any old Meg story to get clicks…..but not this one???

The articles on this issue are mainly American.

She very definitely mentioned the 'unkempt' hair of a young child. A young mixed race child at that. Unless she can prove she has valid standing to comment on that, she needs to back way off and never revisit that topic.

And she's talking to you and me and anyone else with time on their hands today to pay attention to her undeserving blather, not to the parents.

“You knew you were taking her to a kitchen, why not tie her hair up”. Talking to and criticism of the parents, not the child.

Please spare me - Indian woman with mixed race children - whatever racist stereotype you are trying to weaponise.

Sorry, ain’t happening.

The child is four years old, the responsibility for her personal care and hygiene is down to the parents. The child’s hair is regularly unbrushed and unstyled. Little girls hair often gets tangled and then can become painful to brush through. This is why it’s important to condition and tie up if they have long hair. If not, lots of girls have bobbed hair so it’s easier to maintain and they can wear it down.

If the parents of said child chose to photograph their child and release the pics to the public via social media, then we are perfectly entitled to comment that the child’s hair…yet again….is unkempt. This is the parents issue.

And don’t even try to pass this off as a race issue. Good try though!

Peeling veg with bare hands that is going to be washed/boiled is not unhygienic. Serving spaghetti with serving tongues is not unhygienic. None of the people present were wearing gloves.

It seems the defence is out in force! But facts are facts and defence is only as good as the posts and comments you are defending.

Indeed! And I’m finding it odd that after the pile on and insults I have received that anyone would expect different!

Gloves aren’t even a legal requirement for handling food in the UK. In the case of food that is not at the final stage of preparation - eg carrots a prince is peeling that are going to be washed and cooked - the recommended hygiene requirement is clean hands. Food hygiene specialists actually say that gloves can be a greater hygiene problem, because they are a bigger cause of cross contamination, bacterial spread and people being lulled into a false sense of security as to cleanliness, than bare hands that people are aware need to be washed frequently. The only time gloves trump bare hands is when handling food such as salads that will not be cooked.

Imagine if it went to court, “I had to steal the dress m’lord to stop the plebs nicking it and selling it on eBay” Funny isn’t it how she is getting so angry about being called a thief yet is happy to suggest her stylists would thieve the clothes and accessories, I would be livid if I was them.

There was similar with Neil Armstrong and his barber flogging his hair clippings.

But in this case, I suppose Meghan could change it to the stylist wants to sell her residual DNA left of the clothes ?

And that could be fun, because lizard people Royals, cloning etc.

In fact, if she gets desperate for money, that would make a fantastic story for the National Enquirer.

" Lizard Royals tried to snatch my DNA to clone me !"

He's not peeling carrots. And gloves arent required as long as hands are washed (gloves actually increase risks as people are less likely to wash hands - it's different if handwashing facilities aren't available).

MrsFinkelstein · 30/11/2025 09:50

That was back to front for HMTLQ and BP and the process of putting Harry and Meghan back in their place started. The briefings against them began and none of it was difficult because they were providing plenty of fodder themselves, just by existing as they are

Can you point out some of these briefings please, would like to read them.

And this was absolutely not back to front for any of the Royals - having seen this happen with Princess Margaret & QE2 and with Andrew & Fergie against Charles & Diana. The Press always like shiny new things, H&M weren't the 1st and they absolutely won't be the last.

Sooo desperate. Even if W+C were going around spitting in people’s food, it wouldn’t change Meghan’s behaviour. When she does dumb stuff, people will point it out, no matter what other people do. The fact that posters can’t find anything legit to pick on W+C for, and instead criticise normal behaviour, or even invent a load of bollocks about touching food after touching hair, is a bit disturbing. I suppose it must be tough to try and counter “Harry and Meghan’s biggest blunders of 2025” tho.

I didn't realise that Meghan only became a friend of hers after the death of her son. Meghan " reached out to her".
