Ham pr disasters 63! …..repeating, ridiculous, roundabout romp! …..risky? ….

Is Harry silent or silenced?
what else can possibly happen?

Markle Sr has been arrested by the FBI.

Tom Bower said that the children and staff at Meghan’s school had no idea about her black heritage as Doria was was never around/seen and it wasn’t until she was leaving and Doria turned up to some leaving so that they found out.
I suppose they must have thought (if they did think about it) that she had some Spanish roots or something.

That said, young Meghan looked very different to how she has looked in adulthood, her hair might have given a clue. So maybe Tom B made up that story!

I'm doing my morning 'catch up' but in case no one has addressed this:

Jelly - Juice, pectin, sugar, no fruit bits, translucent. Cooked before bottling/canning
Jam -Juice, fruit bits or small chunks, pectin, & added sugar, thick and 'sticky'. Cooked before bottling/canning
'Spread' - fruit puree, sometimes with small bits, no added sugar. Usually uses fruit juice as sweetener. Usually not cooked before bottling/canning.

PB&J can be with jelly, jam, or spread but it's still called a PB&J. Not my fav, but mostly because I don't like PB very much. PB, butter, & honey is delicious, especially on toast.

PS someone mentioned 'preserves'. That can be jam, jelly, chutney, veggies, etc. Pretty much anything that's pickled, salted, or boiled with sugar then 'preserved' by bottling or canning to prevent spoilage.

William and George weren't papped - they were in a prominent box at a public event and everyone knew they were there. William was even on the Barcelona Instagram account with the Barcelona president before the match, so it was fairly publicised that he was there.

Papping is when you are quietly going about your private business and photographers start jumping out at you or using long lenses so you're not even aware you're being photographed. Papping overall is nasty, but it's particularly appalling when done to children and absolutely should not be acceptable. William would absolutely not allow his children to be papped and has even taken legal action on more than one occasion against paps who were taking photos of his kids and family in private moments.

LONDON/PARIS, Oct 30 (Reuters) - Britain's Prince William and his wife Kate [sic] won a privacy case against French magazine Paris Match for publishing paparazzi photographs of them and their children on a private holiday, a notice published in the magazine said on Thursday.

I just read this.

Hang on, “spread” isn’t cooked and has no added sugar? How is it preserved then? The point of adding sugar to fruit and boiling it is as a way of preserving it. “Spread” must have no shelf life 🤔

Most So Cal kids have been to Disneyland and IIRC A&L have been. How did they keep their faces from being shown there? People take pics of celebs, athletes, etc all the time. Public place, it's allowed, no one can stop you.

Even with a Plaid you're out and about in various public areas, even if you do get to go up the exit or through a back door. You can't get from A to B at DLR without being seen like you can at WDW. There aren't 'Utilidors' at DLR.

Wendell Pierce, a fine actor, played the role of her Dad in Suits. He was definitely in several series not just her last episode.

The HaMs had a private visit to Disneyland Florida. The photos showed the back of their heads.

The FBI hasn't hung about. Dreadful news for everyone concerned, including M. I am more sympathetic than perhaps I would have been but for learning a couple of years ago that a relation of mine has done time for possession of child porn images. Even though I hardly knew him and haven't seen him for many years, I feel oddly sullied, which is illogical. Perhaps it's just as well she has cut him off.

It's so horrible and Tom junior probably next

It’s not one you’d choose to have a kick about in the garden with your 7 year old boy, though, as Harry is obviously pretending he does.

It's hard not to think that will be the case.

I think you would probably have to throw it, push it or roll over it rather than kick it.

Yes, push it around. It's very light so it's easy for toddlers (and doesn't hurt if they chuck it at you) !

I hope now TMsnr has been arrested, HAM do not feel the need to make a statement, or brief their friends/sources to say something.

Let the legal process take its course.

Let's hope. Meg would have got a lot of sympathy if she kept quiet a few weeks ago and didn't mention she knew about allegations in 2019

I see two possibilities;

Either this arrest is because the FBI is assisting the RP with an extradition request OR it involves transporting CSA images across state lines or to/from a foreign country*. I'd guess to or from Mexico.

"Federal law prohibits the production, distribution, reception, and possession of an image of child pornography using or affecting any means or facility of interstate or foreign commerce (See 18 U.S.C. § 2251; 18 U.S.C. § 2252; 18 U.S.C. § 2252A).

*this is still the legal term in the US.

I expect she will be unable to resist. No statement could help her because her situation has just become significantly worse. When TMs was an alleged paedophile, it was possible to hope that her silence had had no impact on any children. The chance that it did has now increased, and will increase still further if he is charged, and yet further if he is convicted, subject to timescales for the creation, viewing and any sharing of the images.

MSM are laughing all the way to the bank.

Print HaM's PR release. Write multiple opinion pieces to cover both pro-HaM and anti-HaM audiences. Cha-ching.

HaM are laughing because they do not grasp that a) they are not getting away with it as the general public aren't buying what HaM are selling and b) HaM are paying the extremely high price of multi-generational severance from familial ties.

It doesn't. 6 mos once opened (refrigerated), 12 mos unopened in a cool pantry. This is for 'store bought'.

Thanks! I thought it was DLR, California.

Much easier to hide at WDW. But how sad for children to have to go from place to place via the underground corridors. Half the fun (for children and adults) is what's going on around you as you move through the Park.

I do have sympathy for Meghan here. This would be devastating news for most people, let alone someone so in the public eye, and it’s perfectly possible that Meghan herself will now be interviewed by the FBI, which would not be something I personally would fancy.

You'd hope so, read, but discretion doesn't seem a priority with the Markles

It's been reported that Thomas Snr's been in some kind of dementia support facility though, so I'm not sure how productive interviewing him's likely to be ... unless of course the dementia itself's just another lie
