Ham pr disasters 48! …a masterclass in grief grifting…

[jeffgoldblum]

Still interested, still not bored….a small request please 🙏…can we try to keep criticism to actions and behaviour and rather than getting personal.😁

Why do we even need to buy As Ever products? Why doesn't Meghan urge people to donate directly?

Because Meghan gets paid or it artificially boost her sales figures - and that's the grift

I was talking about her expression, looking less than thrilled, not remarking on her injuries.

I saw her on the Graham Norton show where she recounted the story about how her mother told Prince Harry off for putting his arm around her . He seems to have a habit of touching women in inappropriate or cultural settings. Men too of course.

Well, she still looks ok to me.

Meghan was completely invading Malala's personal space outside Claridges for the photo ops.

It was obvious Malala was uncomfortable with the overfamilarity & didn't reciprocate the touchy feely actions from Meghan, she stood with her hands firmly by her side.

Again no self awareness from Meghan but the cameras never lie.

I think she must be a seriously deluded person - she must really think people love her. Seems to have little idea of how she is perceived by many.

If I wanted to donate to a charity I would choose very carefully to look at how much of the donation gets to the intended destination. She wouldn't be a person I would consider with her lavish displays.

But she didn’t want to learn about the RF. The eyes were always on the prize billionaire Hollywood elite lifestyle destination. She was never staying the boots on the ground / ready for action was to accumulate enough status, brand recognition, reputation etc to fix deals and catapult her back to Cali. Same thing is happening now - but her STBXH doesn’t realise.

Ok, I'm not a fan of Meghan, but you cannot tell, from a couple of images, what Malala was thinking or feeling.

I would say that it's as close to half in/half out as they can get and in my view it's to force the RF to bring them back into the fold.

But what they wanted with half in, half out was the glitzy glamorous bits - carriage rides, balcony appearances, state banquets, dress uniforms for H. (Don't think M ever got to do a state banquet, did she?) They will never, ever be allowed to do any of that again.

And M has shown she can't behave at relatively low key, non-state occasions such as garden parties which even Zara and Mike attend, so they won't be asked to those either. So what is there for them to do?

I think it's her expression being referred to, not the structure of her face.

As I said, I think her expression looks ok

The eyes were always on the prize billionaire Hollywood elite lifestyle destination

I feel she will end up as stuck as the person she seems to channel most. Like WS she is in a predicament of her own making.

And now she is likely no longer to wiggle herself on to a lap of luxury. That opportunity has gone. Possibly due to the passing of time. More likely due to the unwanted fuss that accompanies her.

Well the first person to call them ‘Fuxking grifters’ was the head of Spotify who had struck a deal with them ‘worked’ closely with them and came to that conclusion and definition of their behaviours and operations.

So I will be sticking with that descriptor of H&M as it has come from someone with actual long suffering, hands on, direct, personal experience ‘collaborating’ with them.

I'm not a body language expert but I feel that Meghan was acting overfamilar & deliberately touchy feely knowing the cameras were there. Malala didn't reciprocate the touchiness.
Also the front entrance of the hotel was used for maximum exposure, the hotel has a side entrance that vips that don't want to be papped use.

Well, who knows. My only point is that you really can't tell what Malala is thinking or feeling.
That's all.

It clearly says NET proceeds .

Fair enough I'm only making my unqualified assessment based on how she doesn't reciprocate Meghan's gestures when Meghan is clearly invading her personal space.

In their 'these are upcoming events' article, I'm curious which patronages MM thinks she can resume. Surely they were royal patronages and they're not WR anymore.

What also jumps out at me from those Claridges photos is how Meghan is centred in the photo - they should both be in the centre rather than Malala pushed off to the side. Urgh.

Does it also make you wonder who’s funding the Sentebale case against Harry and Dyer, set to examine the evidence around the machinations of the Sussex Squad? Because I’m having a bit of a ponder, I must admit.

Returning to charities they supported when working royals? Would these patronages not be removed when they stepped down? How does it work ?

Grifter is what they were literally called by the Spotify podcast exec who became exasperated with them. It's therefore apt to say that the business people they attempt to partner with consider them grifters. I'm not sure grifter is even a legal term or means fraud, as you imply. It just means a con artist, someone who is deceptive in order to benefit financially. If they were presenting proposals to Spotify that, e.g. they had loads of content arranged, lots of people who'd agreed to be a podcast guest, and Spotify naively believed all that and gave them a deal on that basis but in reality they produced very little content, then I think it's fair to call them grifters.

"Spotify’s head of podcast innovation and monetisation has labelled Prince Harry and Meghan, Duchess of Sussex “grifters” after their $20m, multi-year deal to make podcasts with the streaming platform came to an end after they made just 12 episodes."

What I don’t understand about this new spread grift …is how exactly it’s going to be bought by U.K. consumers? , firstly i wasn’t aware it had been cleared for sale here and secondly if it’s being bought from her US website and shipped here ( is that set up yet?) the shipping and taxes will be astronomical and more expensive than the product! ….can someone explain the logistics to me?

Only the official royal patronages, such as Harry's military roles and Meghan's patronage of the National Theatre, were removed. If charities such as Smartworks or WellChild want to continue working with the Sussexes, that's up to them.

Thanks Iced
