PR disasters thread 24

[BigWillyLittleTodger]

What more summer shenanigans await us from the Montecito duo?

I dont understand what you are saying sorry. If there is a backlash, i m not alone in thinking this is bad form. Or am I missing something. Thanks

No, I'm not saying that, I just like to click on newspaper websites and see what stories catch my eye. As a woman of a certain age I'm not overly experienced enough with technology to be able to do any of the things you mentioned, I'm just grateful that I'm able to join in with conversations like this!

BTW, what an interesting username you have...

HAM leaked article in People!

Meghan has great sadness that she was unable to support Harry last week - but Harry is in charge of dealing with the rf😂
Another source tells PEOPLE Meghan “is very supportive” of Harry, adding, “There’s a lot of sadness” over how the week unfolded and that she wasn’t able to be by his side.
However, another insider adds, when it comes to Harry’s dealings with his family, “she always lets him lead.”

Then another "well placed" source says it's all because of security 🙄if only it was sorted out (presumably as HAM want) they could come more often
says a well-placed source. “It all comes back to security. If that was resolved, there would be so much more certainty every time he comes—or they come.”

They don't give up

Not at all, that's just my personality. I'm quite laid-back and don't get too caught up in the parasocial side of celebrity culture because they're people I don't know. I don't tend to get too deep into celebrity gossip either.

I work in technology, so I'm used to constant change. Not every new feature is something I'd choose or even particularly like, but I generally accept that change happens and try to see what the positives are rather than immediately writing it off.

I tend to judge things on their own merits. We all have flaws, we all make mistakes, and we all do good things too. I don't think doing something wrong means you can't acknowledge when someone does something well, and equally doing something good doesn't make someone beyond criticism. That's just my outlook

Great sadness about what? His disastrous court case?

The more they leak, the better for the RF. They can just give a hard no the next time

I think M is not just in it for the sales of her outfits. As I understand it she has put funding into the company. I can remember reading something which says OneOff and similar AI companies are betting on huge rises in revenue from this sort of thing. ( I can't just find the article I read so someone tell me if I'm wrong) . So in the short term it's what she gets from sales of her outfits , in the long term it's what she could get from being an early investor in the company. Which TBF to her is a reasonable strategy if you have money to invest you can afford , afford to lose or afford to wait an indeterminate amount of time before you get the payback. & there is no guarantee any future market predictions if accurate will go OneOff's way ( there are apparently other players ). It may turn out to be a canny move by M , or it may not. But it will depend on how much she has invested as a % of the company and on what terms she gets a payout.

Have People magazine set up an office at H&M’s kitchen table? They must be on a retainer to be churning out so much Sussex PR.

Are we now going to receive a daily update in People ( assuming it’s a daily) ?
So much for keeping quiet .

They just can't shut up

Also I think this is clapback against the articles last week pointing out how rarely Meghan publicly supports Harry during difficult times - she just can't take any criticism so she's back to claim her tradwife credentials 🙄

I think Meghan or the PR call them daily.

William will be saying I told you so Pa!

Yes, a regular scheduled daily teams call, it seems.

The court case had absolutely nothing to do with the RF. She absolutely could have been there to support him but decided not to

note to Meg, bad idea letting that idiot take the lead on anything

Well, we got it all wrong. According to the daily express, HAM insisted on keeping the meeting with KC strictly private

Okay…..

Well there may be some merit in that if the purpose of the mtg was to tap KC for funds and to avoid any leaks of the withering stare I hope Camilla focused on H as he made his case whinged like a baby.

That said I think that if that information is correct it also has a serious omission in the high probability that irrespective of HAM’s desire to keep the mtg private KC/QC/MIGS would have insisted on it.

I would also note that it was the palace and not HAM who issued a post mtg statement to say the event was private and no information/photos would be released.

I was kidding 😅 HAM were hoping for a photo at the very least. They absolutely didn't want a private meeting

If it’s private they can get paid to reveal the details at a later point

Just as well he ‘leads’ after she said she and the children would never come here again….oops! Guess what, 48hrs later they were here.
Stupid woman.

Where’s the laughing emoji when you need it? 😂😂
They wanted it so private that they announced all their plans in advance ( despite security concerns).

I think this is clapback against the articles last week pointing out how rarely Meghan publicly supports Harry during difficult times

I'd say that's pretty well beyond dispute, @Lunde, and I'd wondered how long it would take

Interesting about "letting Harry take the lead" with the RF though. Regardless of who was actually there I'd have thought she'd want all the credit if they'd secured something they wanted, so maybe they didn't and she's planning to blame her hapless husband

For the last time ever. Even they should be able to grasp that.

If you “let” someone lead they’re not really leading are they?

She’d take the credit anyway 😁
Spouting contradictory bollocks holds no fears for Meghan, as we all know.

You're not wrong, KilkennyCats, but her alleged remark still sounds rather "distancing" and we can only wonder why
