The ongoing dramas from Montecito courtesy of H&M.

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

I think Harry's shoes are different, and I think Meghan's trousers are baggier now? And Lili's found some shoes. I can't imagine why she didn't have any on last year, I would have thought letting her run round Disneyland barefoot would be both dangerous and extremely unhygienic.

It's actually against the dress code for people to be without shoes at Disney .

corblimeygvnr · 13/05/2026 02:30

She's nuts - in that photo where Archie is hiding she's looking at the camera , not him. Poor lad.

Always with her mouth open so wide with fake excitement.

Jellybelly80 · 13/05/2026 05:12

I’m pretty sure the pictures taken at Disney of a shoeless Lili were taken outside their accommodation.

Invictus Australia have lost their Gov funding who are planning alternative sources of support to their veterans.

I think wearing very similar clothes is Meghan trolling again, I can imagine her having a great laugh with Marcus and her friends, as they go through the online confusion about the timing of the trip.

That is interesting, and only ‘5 minutes’ after his plane took off from his successful tour. Timing is everything.

i think reckoning day is coming for Harry and his utilizing of veterans and charity funds for his and his wife’s own benefit.

This is how I cross my legs and concentrate on pelvic floor when I’m desperate for a wee! 😂

I don't get this picture, if it was of me I wouldn't release it, it makes her look old and her legs weird.
She is far far more beautiful than me, so it is not a dig at her appearance, just this camera angle

@Thedom I just came into to post that link.

I was surprised by how far down the page it was hidden online.

The Chair of Invictus has also stepped down, she wasn’t even in role for 18 months. Not looking good.

Melloney has decided to step down to focus on her other interests

A year before the games? It looks like she is a very competent woman, I can't see that she would have joined in late 2024 with the intention of leaving before the games in 2027.

the multitude of ex-servicemen and women – maimed and, in many cases, mentally scarred by battlefield experience – to whom it has brought a renewed sense of purpose and self-belief?

From the same article... And this is why it is so difficult for anyone to challenge what is going on, so easy to make it look like you are drowning puppies.

I'm sure it goes up the page based on clicks

Sorry, I mistyped, she was the vice chair, not chair !

HoldMyWine · 13/05/2026 06:57

Well their Australia ‘tour’ was a success then. The house of cards is slowly falling.

But who is really laughing? I don't care about their holibobs. I still think she is cheap and did several sets of photos last year. So she can laugh all she likes but my opinion remains low. No sale, M.

HoldMyWine · 13/05/2026 07:04

If the clothes are new why isn’t she linking them and the kids ones on her shopping page? Or has that gone by the wayside as well?

The comments about the Invictus Foundation on that DM article are BRUTAL, their public image is in the toilet sadly. They have an uphill battle if they ever hope to regain any credibility with the public, which will never happen with Harry and Meghan on board.

HoldMyWine · 13/05/2026 07:12

Maybe Invictus can foresee MM turning up and merching her outfits, the ultimate grift and hence govts and trustees bailing out.

Oh yes. I didn’t notice that at first because the cap is covering her face. She is unhinged.

It would be deliciously ironic if Invictus asked William to be patron…..

I didn’t notice either, she is so weird. The photo is horrid, mocking a little boy who for whatever reason is hiding from the Disney princess. So cruel.

I didn’t see a child scared of a princess in that picture. I just saw a kid hiding behind a pillar. Maybe his mum told him to get out of the way for his sisters picture, or maybe he’d just had enough. But either way, it didn’t need to go on the internet.

Agree, I don't think he's scared, I just think he can't be bothered.

If Disneyland is like Disneyworld - when you meet the Princesses - you have to queue (for flipping ages), then meet them one at a time, they're in separate rooms - so you go from one to another to another.

He's probably a 7yo who isn't into the Princesses, didn't want to see another one and wanted to get out and go on a rise or something.

With my twins - I waited with my DD to see Ariel (obsessed) while my husband took our DS - they rode the Tomorrowland car thing twice, went on the Carousel and played some games things. We came out of the Ariel meet just in time to see DS pull the sword out of the stone 😊

Edit to add - IMO he's a 7yo being a 7yo doing something he's bored at. It's a cute funny pic that should be a personal family memory, not put out in public.

JSMill · 13/05/2026 07:55

I can imagine your average seven year old boy would absolutely hate a princess experience and wouldn’t have the maturity to think it’s a nice thing to do for his sister. My boys were 10 and 13 when we did the Disney princess experience. While they did grumble a bit, they did enjoy seeing how excited their dsis was. If they had a strop, we certainly wouldn’t have taken a picture and put it on Instagram. It’s a strange thing to do by someone who pretends to care about online harm to children.
