In August 2026, Meghan Markle and Prince Harry issued a joint statement via their charity Archewell Philanthropies criticising Elon Musk’s company X for allegedly failing to protect children from harmful AI tools, and for suing to block Minnesota’s ban on “nudification” apps

Well I’m not surprised! , they have pissed off so many people at this point i doubt any of us can remember all of them!

Maybe we could persuade him to slow it down over the Sussexes abode 🤔

🤣

It would need some serious brakes applied. There are usually two of us working on Zoom and one streaming so he can scream at a referee who can’t hear him all at the same time.

Best bet would be to knobble the electricity supply. That’s the only weak link in the chain from our experience . That and DH moving the big Starlink thing in the garden cos he wants to mow that bit and leaves it pointing in the wrong bloody direction. 😖

By "good with children" do people mean "fun"?

Because to me, good with children means patient, calm, no ego, present, hands on, tuned in to their routine, and more patience for good measure. Easy to have fun once you have those basics nailed.

I couldn't say much about what he is in those regards, except that he's frequently away, and seems to have ego/identity issues that get in the way of putting a child first.

I read that it was M wearing a virginal veil that shocked HMTQ as totally inappropriate for a second wedding. Wish I could remember where I'd read it..

I've just googled this and it was Ingrid Seward who wrote about it. Apparently she felt it was "too white" and that Camilla & Anne's attire at their 2nd weddings had been more appropriate

No it can definitely be slowed down. Someone did it to Ukraine. But that’s a massive derail 😆

I think H will come out in defence of Meg very soon. He's waiting to see if gets any support from the palace. If not, he'll throw them under a bus and claim they knew about CSA and told HAM to keep quiet.

Quite.. It's worse and with a longer statement too. That was just a snippet. Awful. And this is after her filmed letter to her dad about the fact she knows he's a child abuser. I really don't understand any of it tbh. There is a lot we just don't know.

Do you think so? Even with his [only] future income at risk?

Hard to tell but he's not the brightest. He generally doesn't see beyond his nose tbh

Harry has been a lot more scathing than she has. It's his blood family. He spoke publicly about his love for Catherine. He's beyond redemption, IMO

To be honest I think the racism accusations were the worst, really awful.

A pure white dress and a veil over the face when you're divorced and late 30s? I thought it was strange, but it was very much an image she wanted to portray. HM was quite happy to loan a priceless tiara, though.

The only reason I know a lot of the content is because there is a brilliant youtuber who released loads of clips of Harry's audible recording of the book, paired with her very funny impressions of Meghan.

Do you know the name of that youtuber?
Thanks!

I think they have left it far too late to say it was the RF that told them to keep quiet. If they wanted to use that card they should have done it straight away. There are too many vague explanations that they have thrown out for anyone to believe this of the RF now. I think Meghan assumed everyone would just have sympathy for her and not notice the holes in her narrative, so she didn’t think she needed to further compromise their (admittedly non existent relationship) with the RF

Well, HMTQ couldn't have refused to loan a tiara when all other royal brides are traditionally loaned one

H would have roared the R word as quick as lightning

I agree. Can you imagine? It didn't matter how much Meghan was welcomed and included. They were always going to accuse the RF of racism, I suspect

He must be under a hell of a lot of pressure from MM to speak up in defense of her. Can't believe he's held out this long.

Meghan’s tiara was lovely even though it clashed with the veil in style, the tiara is another example of Meghan being given preferential treatment by the RF, her tiara was much better than the one poor old Sophie got allocated and Catherine’s wasn’t much better either!

"We obviously didn't want to make this public, or implicate the RF in anyway, but feel we have no other option..."
I've been expecting the above since the news of the suspect letter broke. I'm sure it's just a matter of time. Although Harry has been so quiet - maybe yesterday's whinge-fest was a final warning?

Meghan had so much preferential treatment. They all bent over backwards really.

It has been said that she wanted the Spencer tiara. Diana cosplay.
If you look at the scalloping on the veil, it matches it. Charles Spencer refused.
