PR Disasters of the The Duke and Duchess of Sussex continued :

  • So far we have Meg using charity events/sick children/vulnerable adults to merch her fashion, with the launch of her new fashion platform
  • She will be appearing on MasterChef Australia
  • Harry claiming to have had therapy when Archie was born, even though he never sought MH help for his ill wife a few short months earlier.

Place marking.

And just adding (in the interest of fairness) that Harry wasn't talking about still being Royal, but talking about how in Military families, the whole family "serves".

He’s still a pompous idiot sandwich that should not be speaking with authority about anything!

Thank you for the new thread @AtIusvue . I hope you are able to do a review of Masterchef. I wonder if she'll be pushing fast approaching their sell by date flower sprinkles and spread from As Ever?

I knew we’d agree!! ( obviously I’m still hungry, I seem to be focused on bread!!) 🥖

Thanks for the new thread @AtIusvue 💐

And yes, you certainly took one for the team with WLM!

No pressure 😉

Checking in ... blasted Internet's down at home, so fiddling on my phone and I hate it Confused

Katy Perry did a celebrity judge appearance one week on Masterchef Australia a year or two ago. I assume Meghan is doing something similar.

Is she one step up from Greg Wallace ? ⚖

It proves why you can’t be ‘half-in’ the Royal Family - as soon as you mix ‘duty’ and ‘charity’ with self serving ventures - it’s all just wrong. M clearly can’t see that going on a public visit to get publicity to sell commercial ventures is awful and just wrong!

StartupRepair · 15/04/2026 11:20

They really have nailed the half in half out on this trip.

Ohpleeeease · 15/04/2026 11:21

I don’t think it’s at all clear what the purpose of the tour actually is. I mean, we could all make an educated guess, but how did they sell it to the various bodies they’ve managed to persuade to host them?

I’m surprised that (so far) there have been no visits to organisations promoting the interests and welfare of indigenous people. Would Meghan’s fans who vociferously defend her as a “black woman” like to comment on that?

No that would be the last thing Australia needs! , can you imagine the things he might promise them! , it was bad enough in Canada.

Starryfifty · 15/04/2026 11:33

What does he mean, it's not a royal tour but we are royals (paraphrasing here) ? They now have their half in / half out structure they always wanted

BasiliskStare · 15/04/2026 11:34

If this is what their version of HIHO looked like , it's not an edifying spectacle in my view.
Surely this drives a coach and horses through the Sandringham agreement ?

ithinkilikethislittlelife · 15/04/2026 11:36

Merching her clothes. So crass.

That agreement was with the queen! , obviously Harry thinks it no longer stands judging by his actions.
