If you don't believe the Sussex children are real....

[SleepingStandingUp]

... can you explain it to me? So many comments on media articles etc saying oh it's because the kdis aren't theirs, they're actors, they have no kids, they just rent them for photos.

Archie was born in England, the Royal family met him, she was photographed with a tiny baby.
Do you think it was a doll or someone was paid to hand over their baby for a photo?
Who are these people who rent our their kids for photos? Why don't they sell their exclusive story for millions?
Why has no one around her, or where the kids reportedly educated, done the same?
What happens when the "kids" become adults and can't reasonably be kept out of sight? Will they "kill" them off, come clean or adopt a couple of fake actors to play the role?

I think she probably used surrogates, however, I’m aware that Lady Colin Campbell (?) seems pretty convinced they don’t exist. I am keeping an open mind. . .

I thought "died and got a body double" was Paul McCartney.

The one and only Billy Shears.

...or they're just people who ger drawn into these crazy internet theories.

What was the “blackbird” that flew into my dining room ( and shat everywhere) last Friday then?
I spent ages trying to calm him enough so I could pick him up in a towel. He was amazing close up…we just looked at one another! No panic.
When I did pick him up I felt his little heart beating, and his feathers were lovely. I let him go and he flew off. He left 2 feathers behind.

So.. he’s a government invention, hmm?

He sings on the kitchen roof all the time. The Government must know everything about me now…🙄

Definitely more than one batty woman - It’s a cottage industry on YouTube!

What evidence does this person have? In what way do you have an "open mind" about it?

Indeed, there was a time when you had no outlet for the uttter barking madness I see online. Even if you wanted to send someone a nasty anoymous note you had to make a real effort by buying a newspaper, cutting out all the letters and words to form your missive, glue it to a piece of paper, then go out and post it. Must have taken at least a few hours, these days you can relax on your sofa while bullying someone from the comfort of your home

I think we all know why!!!
this is now the second thread started about the Sussex’s children!
obviously they are purposely being started to stir!
the question is why?
an attempt to get insults about them for harvesting?
or just good old fashioned click bait.

I know! it is deranged. The level of obsession is very odd

Absolutely this! The internet has certainly enabled crackpots.

No idea 🤷‍♀️ but most of these comments were spread and started by the Sussex squad ! C bouzy was particularly vocal!

'Lady' Colin Campbell knows no one in the RF. She's barking mad. The Harry and Meghan haters think she knows something because she was married to a lord for 5 minutes about 50 years ago!

Exactly this.

That’s rare! Mixed Asians like me usually look mixed but mainly darker eyes and hair.

Good grief.
How does she explain that the late Queen and Philip met Archie? Most of the RF plus the Spencers were at the Christening? We saw him with Desmond Tutu and in the bath! We saw pictures of Lilibet at home and at her first birthday party!
At none of these occasions were the children's faces obscured. You could see them quite clearly.

There's a lot of utter nonsense on line. Why are you paying it any heed?

I'm not surprised by this.

On Mumsnet the amount of hatred directed at the couple is astounding. I have read some threads and have genuinely thought some of the posters must be mentally ill. Pages and pages of comments exploring every word spoken, every gesture, facial expressions etc. With an undercurrent of racism and misogyny of course.

So on websites with less moderation I can see how this could evolve into some weird conspiracy theories. In the old days, people with daft ideas would shout on the street and be ignored. Now they meet online and talk about their daft ideas with others that have equally daft ideas and egg each other on.

@SleepingStandingUp What is the actual point of this thread?

Conspiracy theories are nothing new, I think the pandemic saw an uptick in the number circulating ie. Bill Gates conspiracy, microchip in the vaccine etc etc. they appeal to a certain group of people.
They are very easy to avoid so 🤷‍♀️

And yet ! This is the second thread started about the children and it wasn’t by the so called “haters “
both of these threads are dubious in origin so I will leave it to others to speculate.

Did you not know that we were locked down during the pandemic so that the government could change the birds' batteries?

😆😆 🐦‍⬛

How do you know she didnt from one pic you see a snapshot of a part of the day? Kids run around playing doing all sorts and their hair does get messy.

And why does it bother you if her child's hair is messy? What are we criticisng here? As far as I can see just attacking someone for no reason.

Yep, DD has a friend who has a white mum and mixed race Dad and you wouldn’t think she was mixed race.
I also know mixed race siblings both with red hair like their mum…

I have a fairly sensible friend who believes Meghan was never pregnant and the kids were carried by a surrogate (with Harry as biological father, mother possibly Meghan or possibly a donor), that the RF knew and that’s why M&H left the UK.
It seem unlikely to me but you never know!

People just love a conspiracy theory! I don't like Meghan but I fully believe the children are real.

There are a lot of photos, and video footage, which seem to show Meghan’s bump behaving somewhat strangely - noticeably changing size, shape and position during the course of public engagements (i.e. in the space of a few hours) - or appearing to be an odd shape (the twerking video).

Some crazy obsessed people have analysed them to death and think this is mostly what has led to the wild rumours.

I think that Meghan may have worn some kind of moonbump over her actual bump to try to have the “perfect” (in her mind) shape of pregnancy bump or something, hence the bump sometimes appearing to “slip” - but you only have to look at photos of her when she was pregnant with Archie to see she had a slightly fuller face etc, so I don’t buy at all into the theories that the children either don’t exist and are played by actors, or were born via a surrogate. Imho that’s all just conspiracy theory nonsense.
