The ongoing dramas from Montecito courtesy of H&M.

I can’t see another thread but I made the same mistake last time …

These are old photos, I think. I have seen a YouTuber criticising her for wearing the hat with ears when the children are not. I think it was RHRJen, she pointed out that she has a daughter of a similar age and she would have the child wearing the hat, not her as she is an adult. The trip was presumably paid for by the Corp as they appeared as talking heads on a documentary to celebrate an anniversary for Disney.

It's a new trip. Archie and Lili are wearing hats with ears.

It's normal for adults to wear mickey ears at Disney. It's getting in the spirit.

New As Ever insta montage out as well. Lots of pensive Meghan back in the rental house.

How is this going to get people to buy her runny spread?

Omg that’s hilarious.

So she’s trying to do sexy, smouldering fashion Meg…..selling you jam?
I honestly thought at one point she was going to sexily pour it over herself 😂

MyAutumnCrow · 12/05/2026 07:57

It’s all so naff.

The lying back with eyes closed stroking herself was...weird 🤣

Just as an aside, the glass vase of viburnum flowers….which is meant to say luxury in her As ever video. The water is filthy. That’s a good 4 days of the water not being changed. Yuck!

Which says to me. There was no professionals running that shoot- it was Meg that was organising everything.

Yes the whole thing is just naff.

I know it's often referred to but Amandaland's 'Sensuous' is exactly what this is.
She is Amanda.

AtIusvue · 12/05/2026 08:04

The arrangement hasn’t been professionally done either. It looks like three big bunches of viburnum rammed into the vase with the leaves still on. A florist would have a spiral of stems in the vase …no leaves. That’s was makes the water turn into a toxic swamp.

Mylovelygreendress · 12/05/2026 08:06

Are those photos not from a previous trip ? The clothes look the same .

Not2identifying · 12/05/2026 08:06

And all timed to coincide with Kate's trip to Italy...

AtIusvue · 12/05/2026 08:07

Also…..if you look at the Disney pics. Who’s carrying the bag with the suncream, water bottles etc.

Neither Harry nor Meg is carrying anything that a normal parent would.

So they either don’t bother with normal parenting or they have someone else lugging about the kids things etc?

Thedom · 12/05/2026 08:07

LOL, she is trying to sell an image she probably dreamed of years before she met Harry, definitely not a jam selling promo that’s for sure!

No new but the same old same old!

She’s also wearing a similar outfit. This is chilled downtown Disney Meg.

Thedom · 12/05/2026 08:10

It could be from the Disney sponsored trip, just a different day on the same trip?

I wasn't going to look because I don't even want to give it clicks but curiosity got the best of me.
And I can't find it-where is it?

MrsLeonFarrell · 12/05/2026 08:12

There was a People article on the As Ever posts and someone pointed out that it was mistimed as Catherine doesn't go to Italy for a couple of days.

Whether or not that take is accurate or not, it does show that they can't ever escape the paradox they have landed in, celebrity 'royals' without status or influence. At best they are a curiosity which isn't sustainable long term

Starryfifty · 12/05/2026 08:13

The photo with Archie behind the pole is just awful. He looks uncomfortabl. Why would she post that ? The blurred faces is just absurd. The photos are always so cold. It looks like there is no warmth in that small family

JSMill · 12/05/2026 08:14

StrawberryWasp · 12/05/2026 07:52

Archie was at the front with the storm troopers.

Ah ok. Didn’t see that.

Pic

There are 'normal' people in this photo. How did they stop them from snapping the H&M group from the front?

Not sure but I see Archie has sunglasses and a hat on. Lili has sunglasses on the boat ride so she could have them in that pic too.

They're already getting the kids to wear sunglasses around the public..that’s so ridiculous

Maybe people aren’t interested enough? I wouldn’t take photos of other people’s children, no matter who they are.

Yes I wonder how they're never photographed by the public.

Maybe most Americans just don't recognise them or don't care.

AtIusvue · 12/05/2026 08:23

Megs As ever messaging has taken a weird turn.

She started out…’it all comes from the garden’. It’s pics of her in the kitchen making jam, collecting strawberries from the garden in hazy/dappled sunlight, wearing a trad wife dress and having dogs follow her.

Now the prices have been bumped up by putting the items in pricey bundles and the new look for As ever….is now mega rich woman in clean lines of grey, blue, white, flopping and rolling around her luxury home, in expensive fashion outfits, caressing and practically licking jam jars……before she has to go out to a fancy party.

I mean WTF?

StrawberryWasp · 12/05/2026 08:23

The daily mail article talks about how they announced Archie would be a private citizen when he was born to protect him. Known as Mister Archie.

Yes we all remember that very brief pretending to be humble and wanting privacy phase 🤣

elessar · 12/05/2026 08:24

I also think they’ll be accompanied by park staff and heavy handed security - who I think would be actively trying to stop anyone taking photographs or intimidating them into deleting them if they did.
