PR Disasters ….part 7

[AtIusvue]

Meg and Harry PR shenanigans

How desperate is Meghan ? The skiing video 😂 Archie - a beginner ? She's barking mad and desperate for attention. Trying to get this in before any pics of the Wales family.

I have noticed the Daily mail not featuring them in anything lately and they have had plenty to work with !

Even assuming the As Ever eggs are real and not AI, it's too late to post a picture now. You can't order them in time for your home Easter decorations.

How long do we have to wait for the Oz entertainment….? Do we think that her ‘fire-side chat’ will be broadcast?

I have many questions after seeing that video! First it looks not entirely real, second, how would we know that those people are who she says they are? There is nothing distinguishable in the video.
three , if it is real and them , why exactly is Harry so far ahead and paying no attention to “learner “ Archie?
lastly , where are ( supposed) Archie’s ski poles? And who exactly filmed this? , the footage follows both down the hill, so either it was someone filming while skiing too ( I’d expect more shaky footage) or it was done by a professional on a moving platform.

Archie won’t have ski poles because he hasn’t learned the basics yet. You only get poles, when you’ve mastered balance and basic skills.

He’s learning to turn and balance……this is a beginner lesson. Which seems odd as he is nearly 7. Rich kids have these skills at 3/4.

Again, just like the water skiing and pumpkin patch, no one in sight. They won’t let the public anywhere near the kids. They will end up giving these kids a complex.

Apologies, I was having a bit of fun.

I had hoped the fox, dog bowl and sausages would be obvious.

But it does say a lot about her general marketing, that a 2 minute AI picture is believable.

🤣 , I thought it was real! But they photoshop so often it’s hard to tell the difference these days!

Jam Eggs???

My DC had they first ski lesson at ages of six and nine respectively. If my memory serves me right, they were pizzaing 🍕 down like Archie in about day three or four. They just learn very quickly at that age. They were also thought to ski without poles.

Interesting celebrity blind no surprise there though

Ohh I have heard of Meghans Mole but not watched anything - be interesting if anyone has to know her angle? Im not interested if it’s moon bumps and fake children etc.

Could be one of us next …..

Yes I read that a YouTuber named Meghans mole was approached by their team and asked to sell her channel! ( she said no ) , allegedly this has happened a couple of times to popular critical channels that suddenly do a u turn and become very sugery .

Lot of non-skiers chipping in here!

My DS didn't start skiing until he was about 7; nothing to do with finances. Totally normal for kids to start off without poles; they're a distraction and not necessary. Harry isn't far away; he needs to keep a safe distance in front to avoid any accidents! Finally, we've skied empty slopes like that; could be early, or during lunchtime. Plus, the slopes in the US are much wider and emptier than the European slopes.

So you didn’t go on skiing holidays before your child was 7? …..well lots of well off families do go every year, and take their young kids with them and chuck the kids in the ski club.

Its unusual that Archie is having a first lesson at this age, given his very privileged background, proximity to ski resorts and that skiing holidays are part of his fathers family tradition.

Do the eggs in the basket say jam eggs ??

I am not bothered whether this is Archie’s first skiing lesson or he is, in fact, a child prodigy who is coaching his father. I don’t want to see him plastered across the internet at all, and certainly not by the people who are supposed to be protecting him from invasions of privacy.

Exactly. Them not putting their children's images online was the one thing I agreed with the Sussexes on.

It's disappointing that it now seems to be open season. And the back of heads/emojis over faces etc is just trying to have their cake and eat it.

If you're going to use your children for PR and to promote your products then be honest and just do it. Otherwise, don't feature the children at all. Not showing their full face isn't protecting them in any way shape or form.

After paps got photos of all the Waleses skiing as a family last year, the Sussexes skiing was just a matter of time. Meghan can't see green cheese.

I doubt it's a favourite of Meghan in the light of her fear of snow and ice when in Canada.

Did you make it? Brilliant.
I actually wondered if Meghan was having a little joke with jam eggs (she doesn’t appear to have a sense of humour so unlikely) but then I noticed the embroidered table cloth. Love it. Sausages, dog bowls and is it a corgi or a fox? Should have made it a silver fox! Very clever. 😂

...and whether it's Archie or some random child?

Indeed that was part of my point that was overlooked! , there is nothing recognisable about either! , now yes we have not seen Archie but we have seen harry before! 🤷‍♀️

I got it and I thought it was quite funny. Two sausages, dog bowl, dog bowl, Harry the fox, one sausage.

Although I didn’t understand two dog bowls

I think @RecoIIectionsMayVary may have given Meghan another idea as to what to with all that jam.

I imagine it’ll be a private ski slope. Plenty of those within easy reach of where they live.

Meghan proudly posting videos of her D.C. or Harry doing basic stuff is so cringe to me. I think it’s cringe of any parent tbh - all parents are proud of their children’s achievements but they are very rarely actual achievements. Harry surfing in a training pool on the internet where real surfers post videos of real surfing of real waves; Archie in a beginner class posted to an audience where children younger than him ski and snowboard properly and skilfully… Will we be treated to a video posted by proud Meghan of the back of Lilibet trotting on a horse led by the reins by a riding instructor? I mean, it’s cute but not really much to be proud of when all you have to do is pay money for it to happen It’s the kind of thing nobody outside of parents and maybe grandparents would consider noteworthy.
