Ham pr disasters 64! …….Prince Charming…Prince Charming…..ridicule is nothing to be scared of ! …..

A lack of humour and self reflection is not helping.

I can't watch / listen. It's too nauseating. I'm relying on ye all for feedback 😆

Disturbing .

Nope

He obviously writes (or she does) speeches themselves. It's always the same jargon. "As a father " 🙄

Yes, Harry looked awful. I do think, whatever the reason for their very abrupt return to the UK, it's just not panning out in the way he (probably naively) expected.

Take away his family connection and that by accident of birth he's a prince and you're left with a very ordinary and talentless couple. They really do need to find somewhere to settle and live quiet lives (hah!).

The desperation is obvious and a very hard watch.

I was just about to post this. Even subdued M doesn't lose her instinct to be at the centre of everything.

The DM readers are having none of it.

They are so unbelievably dull. What will they do if Willie ever takes the titles ??

Is her father dead to her (again)?

That's definitely the message she's trying to get across. Performative, as usual.

I have to say, when I saw the BBC reporting on Heidi Klums Halloween costume, it doesn’t surprise me at all they are focusing on Harry and Meghan as celebrities.

Every time an appearance like this is reported, however, the article also contains the detail of her dad being an accused paedophile.

I think that's an intractable problem for Meg and her PR now. Repeating that she's 'sad' just doesn't cut it in the UK - not now, not ever.

I'm watching it now on the tv bulletin. So much coverage and attention. They're so important.

She's a terrible actress

Who is providing the security I wonder? I hope it's not tax payer funded! This is a private visit. It shouldn't even be getting coverage.

And her hair is terribly black.

I'm sure the Brussels people will be chuffed

Why don't they invite somebody who actually has knowledge and training on this?

This is what I do not understand

Column inches?

Carefully curated perhaps, but doesn't care to wear a poppy (spoil the all black look perhaps?). If Harry chose to wear one today, I would have expected her to do the same. Had he not worn one, then her lack of one wouldn't have been glaring. She certainly wasn't too emotionally devastated to walk a red carpet, or stand and make small talk with officials and event managers, so why was she absent from the Remembrance Day event in her local village?

Just another indication that she appears to be completely separated from the events that people in the UK normally take part in. I just keep thinking that she's not playing to a British audience, and everything she does is for the American consumer. I know people keep saying there's no way that they're separating, but she doesn't give any signals that she is choosing life in the UK or looking at any of this as a long term prospect. The Nottingham visit was (IMO) just a big F You to the WRF, so I'm not counting that as an example of her starting to integrate herself into life in the UK. This seems to be a temporary situation for her, and she's playing a much longer game for when she returns to the US.

Perhaps publicity is worth it at any cost for the organisation.

All good points. I wonder how Harry feels about that. He did try to integrate into life in the US.

I have to say that I haven’t really learned anything about the organisation they are there to attend. All I have heard is first they are both making a speech, then Meghan is still going but not speaking, finally, Harry is there as a father and Meghan is in all black with loads of “no make up” make up 🤷‍♀️

The real tragedy is that I agree something needs to be done to protect children online. I agree that the big tech companies need internationally reigning in. But when the person who is speaking gets more attention than the cause you have a problem. When articles about the event also mention someone accused of the very crimes they are trying to prevent, you have a problem.

But the alternative seems to be having someone committed and knowledgeable like Sophie who the press ignore. So Harry will keep getting invitations until the cost outweighs the benefit. The BBC should be asked about this.
