Ham pr disasters 44! Will there be karma? Or will the slippery mackerel of consequences pass them by?

Still not bored , still interested, if you find this thread not for you please pass us by.

I thought it had all been renamed Archewell Philanthropies now, Cathy, though I suppose they might have hived off the "Production" bit as a separate entity in case any more grifting opportunities turned up?

As for the behaviour over Uvalde, @Lunde, I remember that photo of Meghan with the photogs coming out and one of the more manic fans insisting it showed her telling them off for being there

They were inventive, you have to give them that ...

It’s so unfortunate - he has inherited Diana’s lack of intellect/academic ability but has none of her humour, charm or star quality. And it must surely rankle that as they have aged, William nowadays is looking rather dapper whereas Harry looks like a grumpy curmudgeon. I normally would never comment on looks but consider Harry fair game, given his nasty remarks on William’s appearance in Spare.

Edited to say this is in response to @Ratherhaveacupofteaandabiscuit‘s post. I tried to link the quote but it’s not worked for some reason.

With no co-operation from anyone who knew Diana, the documentary is just going to have to focus on Meghan and how like Diana and awesome she is.

I heard that he was hoping that Diana and Dodi would live there once they were married.

She looks stuck together wrong like those faces where the eyes are upside down and it's obviously wrong but you have to really concentrate to work out how.
Or like Death Becomes Her.

And it must surely rankle that as they have aged, William nowadays is looking rather dapper whereas Harry looks like a grumpy curmudgeon.

Not just age, I think, but lifestyle. William has plenty going on in his life to keep him occupied and interested - long term objectives to work towards, things to do, people to meet. He obviously looks after himself, always looks well turned out, always looks interested. Harry just hasn't and doesn't.

Here is a new angle of the “six cameras in my face” school visit. No wonder the boy was agitated.

I am just waiting for HAM to say the incident at the RAF base in Gloucestershire increases their need for security.

The problem is that Harry has said previously in the Netflix series that he has very few childhood memories of Diana. Which in itself is a bit odd for a 13 year old - but it would strain credibility if he suddenly claimed a lot of memories.

He was a bit older - he turned 13 two weeks after she died

I have no doubt if Diana had met Megs, Megs would not have married H. Diana, being attention seeking herself, and a staunch royalist, would have disliked M. Imo.

H should let his dm rest in peace. No respect for his family at all. Its terribly self indulgent of him. I wont be goinv to watch it, a) because it will be a sugar fest 2) out of respect for our king and queen, and the heir.

There are only 2 years between them - I don't know where this narrative of William being much older has come from

William turned 15 that summer - about 8 weeks before her death
Harry turned 13 - 2 weeks after her death

It seemed everyone leaned on William as a young teenager. Diana used him as a confidante and even took him to meetings/lunches with tabloid editors. Charles relied on him after her death to "take care of" his traumatised younger brother who resented him. And Charles Spencer barely gave him a thought because he was "older"

I do see what you mean. Diana did have long elegant legs which were well toned from ballet and the gym but I agree in that particular photo they didn’t look so amazing or warrant the fuss they generated.

Meghan’s wardrobe fail didn’t generate similar excitement, but you’d think SOMEONE would have noticed. It can’t just be us, can it?

Indeed! By all accounts it was supposed to be a different person but they were unavailable…Diana was a huge fan of John travolta…if anything…she was the one dining out!!!

I think a lot of it was was due to William being much taller while Harry looked a bit lost . The Sussex narrative ( perpetuated by CS) is that Harry was just a wee boy while his 2 year older brother was viewed as almost adult.

Someone said that on a thread just recently, "William was practically an adult"

If Harry goes ahead it will be spare 2 or the same format as Spencer’s book…however this will slag off his father and his brother….he has nothing of note to say and he’s too petty to not use any platform as a means to stick the boot in.

The fuss they warranted was that we were seeing something we shouldn't have seen. Her legs through the skirt. Or maybe the legs of a future queen, or maybe the legs of a virgin. Or maybe all those things. Whatever. It has a 'what the butler saw' element to it. There was a lot of prurience about her virginity.

This seems appropriate!

They absolutely did.

And insisted that Harry was the child.

They were both children on that day.

Only one is still a child now.

I can see how they keep getting confused.

Absolutely 💯

So true!

Yes, that’s how I remember it.

But also it was reported that Charles told her (I checked the wording for accuracy) “I knew your legs were good, but I didn’t realise they were that spectacular!” He was probably trying to cover her embarrassment (or equally likely his own) but it raised the stakes.

I was a year younger when my mum died. I have very few memories of her and I wasn't at boarding school from 8. I think the grief in these situations affects memories.

I think it does. I'm sorry for your loss 💐
Harry can't really contribute much.
