Here's a summary for you - it's full of British traditions like cracker pulling which she explains 🙄 , how to decorate a tree with lights and wearing matching pyjamas with her friends. Harry appears for the last 5 mins.

I watched Meghan Markle's Holiday special and it wasn't what I expected

With Love, Meghan: Holiday Celebration premieres on Netflix today.

All the Markles are horrible, imo, but I don't see what they've done that is any different to the things Harry and Meghan have done. They have all said horrible, hurtful, untrue things about their respective families. H&M have just done it via multi million pound book and media deals, rather than scratching around on seedy youtube channels. But it's all the same shitty behaviour.

This column is hilarious.

“The people who walk into Meghan’s cottage are supposedly her friends, but many behave as though they’ve just had a burlap sack pulled off their heads and learned: Bad news, the kidnapping wasn’t a dream; good news, if you just make some lavender syrup with this woman, she’ll let you go.”

”like a combo of needy and egomaniacal.”

“There they are, living out their great romance, and England is thousands of miles away, and the Bahamas are no longer an option, and there are decades left to go.”

The expressions on their faces are interesting to watch. Naomi Osaka looked confused and terrified at the same time.

I have no idea why both of these things took place on the same day ? Everyone is now talking about what an ass Harry was as opposed to Meghan's great ideas. Don't they coordinate their diaries? 🤷‍♀️

I thought she lived with him from a younger age than that, 6?

It seems to vary depending between publications, some say from 9 years old and younger, and some say from 11 years old, it was basically TM who brought her up while Doria apparently travelled the world.

Its probably a good thing he has taken the attention away from her. All the reviews were dire

Apparently the member of staff who arranged this for Naomi has been sacked .

The Chapel was filled with royalty and celebrities, that's what she wanted for wedding no2.
Thomas's imput for wedding no 1 was acceptable, a non celebrity beach wedding.

Does anyone know how many if any of the guests from wedding no 1 were invited to wedding No 2?

The thing is if they had behaved with a little thought, good manners, diplomacy, grace and dare I say it love then Thomas Markle could have been managed, probably quite easily even if he does/did have a tendency towards being curmudgeonly and embarrassing. Who hasn’t got a relative like that?

  1. Go meet him, ideally before engagement or before engagement is public. Keep it short and sweet, a meal in a hotel or something.
  2. Get him to UK in a decent hotel that keeps paps at bay and sort clothes.
  3. Assign a minder once he has done his duty of walking her up the aisle. Mike Tindall could probably have been prevailed upon to sit next to him and keep him chatting while making sure the drink didn’t flow.
  4. Get him back to hotel to sleep it off and miss the evening do.
  5. Day after wedding no one cares.
  6. Same could have applied to other Markle guests.

Plus, the RF would have looked after him and made sure he was ok. I think the late Queen was perplexed about the whole business.
I'm amazed that Harry never met his father in law. Perhaps Meghan was worried about stories not matching....

"The burlap sack" 😂

No doubt a bespoke burplap sack she joyfully and mindfully created, at her kitchen table, embellished with flower petals and infused with aromatic Christmas spices.

Or would it be a leftover burlap sack from when the faceless children were toting their wares to the local farmer's market, where they supposedly sold produce?

Just Doria, I reckon. She met Jessica Mulroney after she married Trevor and moved to Toronto for Suits. Ninaki Priddy was dropped after the divorce. Possibly that lady who was in WLM making the wreath - short blonde lady whom M's apparently known since they were 17? But I thought she said at some point they had lost touch and only become friends again since Meghan moved back to California.

Selling produce 😂😂
As. If.

If her father looked like a movie star (or was a movie star) no doubt he’d have been there

Not necessarily, @BunnyLake; don't forget he knew her, warts and all, and could easily have spoken of something she'd rather wasn't aired

Ditto the rest of the RF with Harry ... as I've said elsewhere his departure may have suited them just fine from the "institution" POV, which could also explain his claims (if true) that the Sandringham Summit was a stitch up

I think that was the risk. Thomas knew too much.
I have no idea if the Sandringham Summit was a stitch up - I wasn't there, but they were very fair about giving H&M a year out to try, to reflect and to come back on board if they wanted to.
I think that's more than they deserved, tbh.

It’s just funny, and more than a little ironic that some posters in this very thread were adamant she could still treasure her ‘before times’ memories, despite being estranged from the very family she was waxing sentimental about in her Christmas ornament life chapter spiel.

But now, suddenly, she supposedly doesn’t owe him a shred of sympathy, even if he may be terminally ill and not long for this world.

But that’s just typical Sussex squad narrative for you 🤣

I think MM is an opportunist. . But she didnt have a clue. You could see it in that Fab Four charity talk line up with Harry, William and Kate. She talked all the time, sucked all the oxygen out of the air , and left the others blindsided. It was grossly inappropriate. She came over here, throwing her weight about, and when everyone didnt fall at her feet, she just started having strops all over the place. Shes the type who'd throw anyone under the bus just to come out on top..And she and Harry will.probably divorce once she realises the game is up and nobody is interested any more. I predict 10 years from now Harry will be back in UK married to some aristo .

CheeseIsMyIdol · 04/12/2025 17:40

Unbelievable.

a) what poor taste to make a product launch when there are headlines everywhere about her dad being critically ill.

b) why does she keep peddling commodities? Pancake mix, jam, wine, chocolate. these things are available everywhere in myriad forms, tastes and price points. She has no expertise or special angle that would add any value to items that are already available on any street corner or shop. (especially since anyone not totally gullible realizes these likely are just mass-produced items with her label slapped on them, like the jam.)

c) whatever happened to American Riviera Orchard? (talk about word salad.) That lasted all of 5 minutes.

d) 4 December is a little late to launch a product that, at best, might be a tongue-in-cheek stocking stuffer.

It's truly baffling. In hindsight if she wanted to tout something, she should have had a limited jewelry line, not cheap grocery items. How tacky.
