Why are the DC in summer clothes and their parents in padded jackets etc ?

Good point. It's a photo shopped fake imho.

Starryfifty · 13/09/2026 18:46

just catching up. What's with the fire lighting?? I'm in Ireland and it's bloody 16 degrees

No I think it’s real - they usually are mismatched in clothes on their videos.

I think for Meghan she has a site where clothes she’s wearing can be bought and she gets an influencer fee - so it makes sense that she’s merching the coming season’s clothes as no one is buying summer clothes now.

In honour of their new found love for the U.K. and because Harry desperately wants this scrubbed from the internet , I give you …….the freedom flight pictures! 😁

He looks like a complete Gom in that photo

LaMarschallin · 13/09/2026 18:48

So, still possible Meghan isn't in the UK?
The whole thing is so weird and must be disconcerting for the children no matter what - all this being filmed from behind.
It's a while ago for my DC but my DGC always turn, smiling, toward the camera, chatting, posing* or whatever.

*Nooo...of course they don't get it from me 💃

Starryfifty · 13/09/2026 18:51

I don't think it's Althorp as apparently CS is done with them. After one visit

AlwaysRightISwear · 13/09/2026 18:53

Presumably they also have
face shots for themselves.

Yes I read that but I meant that it was filmed when they were there in July .

Channel 5 news have just shown the video, seriously just why? It’s frankly ridiculous.

Agree. I’ve posted this before but I hate when their tittle-tattle makes the proper news.

Don’t get me wrong I’m here for the entertainment but it’s not news! I do actually hope they’re having some nice family times amongst the drama.

Also how old is that phone camera?!

jeffgoldblum · 13/09/2026 18:57

If rumours are to be believed Charles Spencer found them exceedingly rude guests and he wasn’t happy about the pictures posted by Meghan as he hadn’t given permission!

Honestly don't know why he had them there in the first place.

I think that some of it was filmed at Althorp and some of it elsewhere and not all at the same time. In some of the pictures the grass is really brown, but in others there is a bit more green like it is now we have had some rain. It’s a picture salad video

What type of boots is M wearing?

They are so ill fitting!

They are new, as previously she has been photographed wearing navy Hunters and olive green St. Laurent wellies. Neither of those have the adjustable side gusset shown in today’s reel.

🤷‍♀️ because Harry asked and he’s his uncle I suppose.

It's such a weird video. Music is so out of sync with the video, all so contrived

Handbagsandoldcurtains · 13/09/2026 19:06

I’m feeling a large sniff and a “well it got their name in the papers” harumph, coming on in the style of my late DM.

What a pile of nonsense.

I am currently serving our nation with an autumn tour of UK cities and educational establishments ancient and modern. Also known as youngest’s uni visits. I’ve yet to see anyone in wellies and a puffa jacket anywhere.

Starryfifty · 13/09/2026 19:09

They get want they want, headlines but the novelty for the press will wear off eventually. They are nothing but a laughing stock

Starryfifty · 13/09/2026 19:13

I would imagine the clip "our next king" sent them over the edge

I think you're probably right,.just on the basis of weather and lighting.

FWIW the lake/bridge like structure/possible mooring platform on RHS visible in some views doesn't look like anything visible at Althorp on Google earth...

No one I’ve seen is wearing wellies just yet. Such a weird video.

Doesn't mean you can't though. It is a message. The Americans and their hunter wellies and she definitely has a wax jacket on. She is down to live the image vibe of this. To be honest, it looks nice. And if the kids get to ride their bikes, and fish and enjoy nature...there are worse lives.

I think Charles Spencer is another Harry & Meghan type, gets offended by something easily and then cuts people off. He has 3 ex wives, a few ex fiancée’s, several of his adult kids appear to have nothing to do with him. Not exactly someone you would like to have in your corner.

BasiliskStare · 13/09/2026 19:26

Back from my short engagement to support dairy farmers and our country as a nation of shopkeepers ( if anyone suggests I was popping down the road for a pint of milk well , well , I'll just stamp my foot and write a sternly worded letter to the Lord Chancellor ) I think @Thedom may have a point with the Wham / Di music. It may be nonsense , but you just don't know nowadays do you 😊

For the love of Betsy , if they were coming back to get some credibility for their and A&L's titles I'm not sure how over the last couple of weeks they could have done a worse job. If Sunshine Sachs is one of the best PR agencies in the US and if H&M are using them , well , either SS may kindly invite them to leave as clients or they've been given to the intern who writes down everything H&M says . No idea and because I know nothing about these things , I'm not casting aspersions per se on Sunshine Sachs.

LaMarschallin · 13/09/2026 19:27

Presumably the whole vegan/vegetarian thing has been given up if they're fishing.
Maybe Harry will be allowed to go back to shooting.
