As ever and PR disasters continued

So Meghan lost her fathers number but is ringing round hospitals and will send a handwritten note, as per Sussex sources speaking through the Sun, the Telegraph and the Times.

I mean I have no idea, how it works with PR for very famous people, but surely there are scenarios they prep for?

Her dad is in his 80s, severely obese and has suffered ill health for years. You would think, there would be protocol in what to do should the worst happen.

That would include having up to date contact info. This isn’t something Meg would need to have/get involved with if she’s estranged, but surely ‘The Office of the DDOS’ would. Then engage in their set plan- whether that’s a public statement that this is a private affair or that contact has been made through the proper channels.

Whatever this is, it isn’t professional-it’s complete chaos.

Does anyone else think M is hoping that her Dad releases the letter ?

Maybe she has forgotten that her letter cannot be published without her consent, as was established in law the last time she sent her father a missive?

She owns the copyright so it can’t be published verbatim without her consent but the content can be discussed.

So the journalist who was there could read it and summarize it.

But she has not. Only M has leaked something of the contents. Strange for such a private, sensitive matter when she made such a fuss last time.

And last time the legal Court records exposed her writing to Knauf ahead of issuing the letter to her Dad where she states that certain paragraphs crafted by her were done so deliberately to “pull at the heartstrings”
of the general public when/if it was shared by TM to the media (which is what she wanted).

I said last week that the best thing TM could do now was NOT to discuss the contents of this most recent letter because that’s what MM wants and that would call her bluff and send her into a spin - and low and behold she has been stupid enough to go public on the contents and process. Brinkmanship. Nice one TM - seems to be one step ahead of his manipulative daughter.

What a vile collection of DNA the Markle’s are.

Are you getting paid for this stuff?

You’re all still going. Aren’t you bored of endlessly slagging her off?

It would be boring if they led a dignified private family life like most other ‘slebs.

But they are the grift/gift that keeps on giving…..every week they put on a pantomime for a global audience - it just gets more reckless and hilarious as time goes on.

Its hugely entertaining to see what grandiose and delusional nonsense they dish out and quite delicious to see two nasty fools get their comeuppance.

Absolutely, they are pure entertainment, more than they realise probably!

The Kitson's story is gaining more traction as a result of the Sussex Squad attacking the Kitson's boutique owner, extending the story in the international news cycle.

However, Meghan's admirers are furious, with one individual ringing Kitson repeatedly in a single day this week attempting to speak with Mr Ross. The retailer stated: "One called the store 20 times to say we 'weren't nice'. She was deranged."

Isn’t it one of their supporters that’s been accused of stalking Harry when he was in the UK….and came within metres of Harry’s security.

I mean that’s who he wants the taxpayers to pay for …armed guards to protect him from the people that have listened to Meg n Harry’s tripe and fallen for it hook, line and sinker.

The same peoole that put a roof over their heads, is the ones Harry is running scared of.

Yes , and I personally now think it was orchestrated to make it look like Harry needs security.

She is interested in shaming and attempting to shut down different opinions.

Yup. If the furore doesn't die down I'm awaiting a few friends briefing People magazine again.

I had to read the story twice and check the veracity of the website as I was honestly shocked that H called Archie his "little African child".

Just...shocking.

Prince Harry described Archie as "my little African child"—Tina Brown - Newsweek

Speechless .

NormaMajors1992coat · 18/12/2025 16:32

Sounds like he was imagining Archie’s childhood would be like that of JG’s son Grub. I don’t expect Meghan was too keen on that idea 😬

bluegreygreen · 18/12/2025 16:38

I see that Jane Goodall is still described as 'a friend of the couple' despite her denial.

NormaMajors1992coat · 18/12/2025 16:45

Maybe Harry fancied a life somewhere in Africa because he saw himself in competition with William over who got to spend time on projects there. Working in conservation, hanging out with JG, kids a bit feral, it would be impossible for William to have a life like that, so Harry could finally claim Africa as his. Instead he picked a life that nobody in their right mind would be jealous of, hustling for invites from the Kardashians and giving talks to estate agents.

Well she can't deny it now on account of being dead and all, but I suppose anyone can now claim she said anything, H&M included

FWIW I could just about buy that Harry may have fancied a life in Africa, but the idea of his wife settling there is downright hilarious no matter what she might have said about how wonderful it all was to get him on the hook
