PR disasters of Meghan and Harry.

Left off at the last page with Meg selling candles to people who want to know what her young children smell like. She’s also using the kids full titles in the press release….just for a dash of extra exploitation.

As you were

That makes sense as the box has a dirty mark on it.

I spotted that as well. It’s a very poor show.

Wait what? Harry actually slapped a male life guard's arse on Bondi beach?!

Why? How? The visit was related to the atrocities committed there. And he just whacked a guy on the arse? Was he high?

Why would he behave like that in front of hundreds of running cameras 😬

How very weird.

Editing to add, isn't that sexual assault?

Edited

I’ve only just seen the clip. It’s just so bizarre. The lifeguard looks genuinely shocked and doesn’t know how he should react. It must be a power thing for Harry, he knows he can do these humiliating things to people and they won’t do anything back because of ‘who he is’. Maybe the police will consider sexual assault charges as the evidence is all there.

I wonder if Serena received the gifts , binned them then was nagged by the susssex PRs to make a video so she did a half arsed job to keep them
quiet/ piss them off? It is very passive aggressive, and I am all here for it!

jeffgoldblum · Yesterday 07:35

Nothing will happen, no police , no acknowledgement, nothing! , this isn’t the first time he’s done something like this and this time it will be ignored just as is the norm for him .

HoldMyWine · Yesterday 07:40

And therein lies the root cause of Harry’s behaviour, he never has had to face the consequences of it.

LaMarschallin · Yesterday 07:44

I find Harry's response to the man after he smacked his bottom interesting.
First, when the man turns around, Harry gives a thumbs up sign, then he makes a fist. It made me wonder if the man had said anything like "You're lucky I didn't thump you" or something similar and Harry "jokingly" waves a fist in response.
Pure speculation of course, but it seemed an odd gesture for Harry to make.

On a completely different track, Harry's tonsure is looking really ridiculous now with that tiny strap of hair across his forehead and his completely bald pate.
I presume that the strip looks thicker when he looks straight into a mirror but he must see photos of himself and realise he's bald. If he were my husband (God forbid - tbf he'd probably feel the same) I'd definitely advise him to go for a crop.
Silly tufts like his and comb-overs are both awful looks, imo.
More fool him for mocking his brother's baldness - he's left himself very open to this sort of criticism as it's obvious thinning/absent hair worries him a lot.
Far better to carry it off with insouciance.

LaurenBacal · Yesterday 07:50

I haven’t watched any footage of that event until now. It’s just so cringeworthy on so many levels. This is the site of a massacre. Yet they are all grinning and gurning and Harry is acting like it’s a day out at the seaside for him. The way he touches that lifeguard is just so grossly inappropriate it’s breathtaking. Maybe that’s what the lads do in the Army and he’s trying to be matey. It’s just awful. All the false rictus grinning and batting of eyelashes from Meg when there is clearly no one at home. They are just such a very bizarre couple.

Indianrollerbird · Yesterday 08:17

Thanks for the alternative footage of the incident @TrumpetYayTrumpBoo.

Watching that, once again I am amazed at how accurately South Park had these two down all those years ago. Including all the latent aggression and the vacant blinking!

Meghan’s body language: I don’t think she enjoyed being around a bunch of women who actually do “show up and do good”; as opposed to talking about it endlessly, and the “work” being getting photographed at $5k/plate galas.

BasiliskStare · Yesterday 08:37

Harry really shouldn't be let out on his own. What a puerile oaf.
I do hope KC can get through his state visit without slapping someone on the arse 😂

There is another one of him prodding a guy at an event in Australia - this time at the rugby match that they ditched the girls retreat to attend. Here I think his poking is an attempt to humiliate the person they are meeting.

It popped up in my youtube feed today - I nearly didn't watch it as it's Dan Wootton and I'm not a fan. However it is a short clip but you can skip to 1.21 to see the actual rugby clip.

Harry and Meghan are being introduced to people before the rugby. One of them looks like a rugby player. Harry is curt with him (just a hi and bye) but Meghan stops for a smiley chat. Suddenly Harry steps forward and pokes at something about the suit the guy is wearing - like a Sergeant Major who has found a uniform defect on a "lower rank". Then Harry quickly turns away but gives Meghan a glare. Whether he was jealous, generally pissed off or just wanted a drink/other substance it looked really awful to humiliate the guy over his clothing.

H&M have (allegedly?) wanted M to be another Diana and she regularly got the crowd's attention while C was relegated to her plus one. A good example of being very careful what you wish for!

he should be reported. That would finally make the RF do something and deal with it. I'm surprised Dan Wooton and gang haven't ran with this !!

I just had a look at the law and case law in NSW, Australia. Harry arguably committed common assault and arguably sexual harassment, though the key tests in court would be whether there is a complainant who alleges that the touching was unwelcome. The verified footage is rather damning that the touching was certainly not anticipated, and it looked unwelcome. But only the man whose bottom was touched/slapped by Harry can confirm that - though we see what we see with our own eyes, and police and prosecutors might examine a third-party complaint.

If the man who was touched/slapped on the buttock(s) were to complain, or someone were to complain on his behalf, in this jurisdiction there also exists the possibility of a charge of sexual touching:

Sexual Touching (formerly Indecent Assault): Under Section 61L of the Crimes Act 1900 (NSW), any person who commits an act of sexual touching on another person without consent (which includes buttock-slapping) is committing a criminal offence, potentially resulting in imprisonment.

https://www.criminaldefencelawyers.com.au/blog/sexual-touch-charges-in-new-south-wales/

Harry, as a self-considered 'people leader' and workplace opinion-giver/expert/paid speaker, has certainly breached all known norms of acceptable behaviour in NSW Australia. The man who was touched/slapped on his private bottom area by Harry was at work and, in a situation of power imbalance, has had his dignity impinged by a prince who in his own words is a member of the royal family carrying out work. And it was public and it was filmed, as Harry well knew, to be a spectacle for the world.

If that's not unethical, I don't know what is. Perhaps Harry, in his dim colonialist mindset, thinks that Bondi, Sydney is some kind of 'G'day, Bruce' fantasy theme park.

It intrigued me at the time - how were the South Park guys able to depict M so accurately, down to the no-personality empty head. this was (comparatively) early in H&M's States-side career, and public opinion was still unfixed. What did they know, and who from?

corblimeygvnr · Yesterday 10:43

Harry has to always try to be the " fun guy" - hey it's only banter! It's so wearing in a man in his forties. He's completely inappropriate.

I love the woman with her book on the beach.

He's every bit as hungry for attention as his wife and at this stage, I think we'll get half of the poor kid's face

Hasn't she been married to H for 7 years?? How dumb is she ffs?

CesarSoubreyon · Yesterday 11:39

I'm just re-reading Revenge, Tom Bower's first book, and it's really brought home for me just how poorly H and M treated the Royal Family and how desperate they were to leave (and make their millions).

It was clear Meghan never planned to stay in Britain and just how manipulated and orchestrated the relationship was (on her side). The Queen and Charles both did a lot to help her and to encourage them both to stay.

I really hope they never come back. There are rumours floating around at the moment of a return but H and M should be reminded of the things they said and did around 2019-2021, some of it really was terrible and I suspect they have forgotten a lot of it.

Which half 😂

Starryfifty · Yesterday 11:59

I think their only option now is to return to the RF. Everything else is a busted flush. KC would probably welcome it but can't see William would be on board.

KC would be pleased to see him no doubt, but there's no way on God's green earth that he'll have any part in the RF.

It never occurred to me they may have had some insider info on the two grifters! You've got me thinking! I do think the creators are just very canny observers of human nature and the absurdities of culture/religion/politics. And they have been in Hollywood circles for decades and seen the way the Oprahs of this world operate. They've been prescient about a number of things. Although their Worldwide Privacy Tour episode was quite early in the "Megxit" saga, I think H&M's personalities were pretty much set in stone and open for all to see. Neither of them have developed/matured/mellowed/adapted/reflected on their own culpability at all in the intervening years. All they do is double down on their own perception of victimhood, and blame shift to anyone but themselves. Which is why the Southpark depiction remains eerily spot on today, imo.
