Ham pr disasters 53! …..how low will they go? …we all hope not that low!

[jeffgoldblum]

Well we have had the attempted upstaging of the Welsh senate …..now the Oman state visit….we all hope that whatever advisors that they still have will not allow any thing to interfere with Aberfan! 🤞

Also Meg said the past 7 years of her life were her worst and she wanted to kill herself while pregnant with Archie, who is 7.

Having narc parents is tough going. Those kids are in for a lot of misery.

I predict they'll be wheeled out soon enough to get some headlines

I have been there too, it’s a very sombre and peaceful garden, such a poignant place.
i was 13 when the Aberfan disaster happened, our neighbours’ son was a forestry worker in south Wales and one of the people who immediately went to try and save the victims.
He never spoke of it other than to once say that it was utterly heartbreaking and devastating and that it changed him forever.
I’m unashamed to say that it still reduces me to tears 60 years later.
So unnecessary and brutal.

I use a VPN from Oman and watch the BBC and I player.

eta - Re the license fee. I hadn’t thought about it before but I do have one in the UK that’s only used occasionally.

I've been lurking on this thread (and the previous 2!)
i could have written your post, I came home from secondary school, 1st year, to find my mum sobbing. She’s long gone now but I’ve never forgotten that day

I always think of Aberfan when I pass through Aberdare when I’m in Wales.

My over riding memory of the time was the women in our tenement buildings out on the street with their pinnies on and their faces being grey with shock.

Imagine saying that. Does she not care about the impact on her children?

I can't wait to see the drama about Angela Kelly's relationship with the Queen! I didn't watch the Oprah interview, I didn't watch the Netflix series, or WLM, I didn't read Spare - I didn't want to give them the viewing figures or any money - but I will definitely be watching the AK drama!

As for Harry's latest incontinent witterings to GQ, I wonder if another reason for their move is them (but particularly him) trying to provoke the RF into reacting? After all, we've had six years of constant revelations and 'truth bombs' lobbed from CA and the RF's reaction has been ... absolutely nothing. Their lack of reaction is a masterclass in the 'grey rock' technique. Whatever he does and says, however hurtful, humiliating and devastating it must be to hear these things broadcast to the world by professional victim Harry, they ignore him. That must drive Harry crazy, surely?

I think it must be quite humiliating for him by now, surely.

You'd think so, but apparently not!

Perhaps HaM have come back to get the millions they are going to need for the kids' therapy when they grow up and read some of the stuff about their parents.

I just wonder if in his pathetic little victim head he thinks 'They can ignore when I'm in California, but they can't if I'm right here in Blighty!'

And yet, here he is doing all he can to get their attention and all he's achieved is a bland round robin from the King to the press to re-state that the terms of the Sandringham Summit remain in place and that nothing regarding their status has changed.

I find it all rather amusing

Also Meg said the past 7 years of her life were her worst

When did she say that?

what the monarch can create with the stroke of a pen the monarch can take away

They've done that before too, @AutumnCrowSeesDensePeople
I'm sure we all recall being told that Charles "couldn't" do this and that over Andrew's titles, yet suddenly there it was, done by Letters Patent

Thank you @AutumnCrowSeesDensePeople . And so, we wait.

Spent part of my childhood in that area there were still slag heaps and kids played on them

Of course H would threaten legal action if titles were removed but who in all seriousness would represent him ?

If I found my mum on record for saying she contemplated suicide while prenant with me, there would need to be some pretty extreme mitigating circumstances for that not to fundamentally change my view of her. Like her having a very serious longterm mental illness, the pregnancy being the product of rape, it being a forced marriage. Otherwise I can't understand it. I had hyperemesis in my pregnancies up until the 7th month, I couldn't keep any food down and barely any water. I was skin and bone, hospitalised for dehydration many times and perinatal depression came like clockwork every pregnancy weeks 8-16, a black cloud would descend and I would feel an overwhelming sense of despair. It was quite unbearable but I was deeply committed and protective of my unborn child throughout. I wouldn't have felt I had the right to end my life while I was carrying them. I know some will say it's not right to criticise her suicide claims but it's something I feel very strongly about. Women have carried their babies through far worse things than I ever have. There are women who lose one of their children or their husband while pregnant. What was so terrible in Meghan's life to excuse her contemplating killing herself and her unborn baby. This will come back to bite her one day and I think she knows it because she absolutely hated it when Jane Pauley brought it up a couple of years ago. There's no way Archie won't ask her about it when he's older.

Things also seemed rather frosty between them during the filming of WLM

Doria didn't like the dish Meghan made for her (and pulled a face)

At the end when Meghan was "hosting a lunch party" - Doria seemed a reluctant participant

When she went through all her MH difficulties, there was no mention of contacting Doria.

He’s like an irritating little twerp, twittering along in the background and getting increasingly more frantic.
it’s like a slowly dripping tap, a squeaky wheel or an earworm that won’t shut up or a background noise just loud enough for you to notice if you stop doing something.
He’s too dim and arrogant to realise that the RF have moved on, he’s irrelevant to them (and the majority of the UK public, judging by popularity polls)

It must be something pretty dire to beat the video of Meghan simulating giving someone a bj……
