PR Disasters thread 16.

[HoldMyWine]

Meghan and Harry the grift that keeps on grifting. Long may they continue. Better than any soap opera on the telly.

No tabloid would have printed details about Harry’s penis or losing his virginity. He’s whipped up interest in these matters and dragged innocent parties with no press protection into his mess to have their privacy invaded, like the poor stable girl and the disabled matron at school

And this is why, like so many before, you got no answer to your perfectly valid question about invading the privacy of others, @Indianrollerbird

If any reasonable answers existed they'd no doubt have been produced by now, but the silence continues

The grandiosity is unreal. "The Private Office of the Duke and Duchess". Is there a public office?

Edited to add you might as well ask if there's an office at all, @IcedPurple
Someone please correct me if I'm misremembering, but didn't some reporter once go to the supposed offices of Archewell and find nothing there?

Fair. That looks like a very padded bra.

The children of influencers are also in danger - which is what Meghan does when she uses her kids to sell her "As Ever" range

You have to laugh. They're so delusional!

😂😂😂

Gosh we need the laughing reaction back!

‘you should be really really worried, concerned and cautious about putting photographs of your kids online’ [says Harry]

What a massive hypocrite that gauche pisshead and Spiteful Little C_ truly is.

Ugh. Loathsome, scrounging scruff. How can people pay money to be in the same room as him? They must be void of any worthwhile values. Chandauka was bang on, and best of luck to her.

Did you miss (as Meghan did, apparently) the speech in which Archie and Lili’s father warned us all of the dangers of uploading photos of children? And the many times he has spoken about how harmful it was for him, growing up in the public eye?

If there’s no problem with posting photos of children online, why does Meghan obscure their faces? For privacy reasons? But if she is concerned about the children’s privacy, why does she post any photos of them at all? Why does she obscure the faces of her children but not other people’s?

If you want to continue making comparisons, no other non-working royals do this. In fact, neither do working royals like the Edinburghs. The only family that releases any photos of their children is the Waleses, who due to their constitutional role have a particular unwritten contract with us and the press. Releasing photos protects the family from potential press intrusion, which does not apply to the Sussexes, who have no significance and generate much less interest. The Waleses also need to prepare their children for public life, and part of that is in posting a handful of times a year, never photos taken at home, certainly never naked in the bath, and using the same pattern for all three of them.

It would certainly be better for their children, but I suspect that idea is beyond their ken.

H&M are the intrusive media.

Urgh he really is deeply unattractive

I know that’s just a snapshot so I’m going to look for some film footage. Because … bloody hell. At 41, I looked 10-15 younger than he does there in that particular photo.

I like that.

It has a ring to it.

No actual way?? Jesus wept🙈

Interesting to see that Harry was at the Warrior Games on Sunday (we had been discussing his lack of involvement in US charities upthread).

Well, she started as she meant to go on. The dress she wore for the engagement photoshoot cost around £45,000. A bit of a step up from Catherine's Issa dress, which IIRC was around £400.

Is there any way MM could be in cahoots with the Daily Mail (for example) and be on a percentage of ad revenue in exchange for bizarrely random content? It wouldn't be ethical, but is it possible?

He looks terrible but these kinds of events are his strong point. Hanging out with the lads, shaking hands, making small talk, posing for selfies. This was his 'bread and butter' as a royal and he's had years of experience. Whereas he looks quite uncomfortable making those 'profound' speeches and talking shyte about current affairs of which he knows nothing.

No tabloid would have printed details of Prince William’s penis either.

Quite frankly, given your attitude, I won't be engaging further. I prefer to have discussions with people who are polite enough not to make assumptions about my intentions.

Funny isn’t it that @LipglossAndLies posts the above but has one of their previous posts deleted for breaking talk guidelines, hypocrisy seems to be a theme here.

Yes. Any old eegit can do it. Shake a few hands, touch up some lads. He's really fit for absolutely nothing else

100% they are exactly this. And they stoop to heavy hints of blackmail too: Meghan and her diary recovered from the sock drawer at Frogmore and her, “I didn’t sign an NDA whilst in the RF” and, look, I have 30,000 pictures from my time with Harry pre marriage; Harry and his 400 pages of unpublished witterings to Moehringer and his nasty, “private” little missives to people like Sophie Chandauka that he copied to all staff. Nasty pair of shits.

Yes, obviously I am the rude one! But it was a pathetiy precious response from someone who has no answers, because the facts speak for themselves, and they know it.

Cocaine, MDMA (Ecstasy/Molly), and amphetamines are the primary recreational drugs that cause both a red face and dilated pupils.

Sunburn or old habits die hard?
🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️

She could have made a fortune off that folder if she'd kept it!
