Prince Harry and Meghan Markle thread

[Vlad]

I kindly request that all members participating in the MM and Harry thread dial back the vile rhetoric.

I am not opposed to discussing public personas on TPF, including the constant torrent of news surrounding the couple from this thread. But I find it troubling when their looks are being nitpicked apart to a degree that is just not appropriate.

This thread has drawn criticism over the years, and I discussed it at great length with Megs and the mods. I am not looking to close it down, but the vitriol needs to be dialed back.

My personal feelings about hate threads aside, this ultra-negative vibe is something better suited for other forums, Reddit, or elsewhere. I am holding our community to higher standards.

Thanks for reading.

I'm sure she likes being wealthy but she may love being famous and having a royal title even more

Maybe she will spin it into some victimhood spiel: we tried so hard but the world was against us! Then she cosplays Diana some more and has affairs. Meanwhile, HazNoWits goes on a "secret" trip to India and poses woefully in front of the Taj Mahal.

Who wants to bet that the holiday special gets released on the same day as Catherine’s Christmas special?

She definitely padded. Her bump pops back out in the last second…

That reminds me of a similar controversy with Beyonce's disappearing bump during a TV interview with her first pregnancy. I think this is just an optical illusion. Not a fan of Megs but I think she was pregnant, at least the first time around.

"Megative"

For what? Khloe and the whole fam can afford everything! Reeks desperation for attention don’t you think? Kardashian family is beyond low level friends- they’ve been invited to the Bezos wedding and the Ambanis, etc… so what a waste of promo. Sad.

The desperate unpopularity of Prince Harry and Meghan is revealed in the latest royal popularity graphs from U.K. pollsters YouGov.
The polling provides a stark illustration of just how far Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have fallen in the U.K. popularity stakes—put simply, only Prince Andrew is more disliked. Harry enjoys a positive rating from just 28% of Britons, while Meghan fares even worse at 20%, her joint lowest-ever score since tracking began.

These numbers have barely shifted since YouGov’s last survey in May, underscoring the entrenched nature of public opinion. By contrast, the rest of the senior royal family is in robust health with the public. Prince William leads the pack on 74%, Kate is just behind at 71%, and Princess Anne stands at 70%. King Charles III is on 59%, and the monarchy as an institution holds steady at around 62% approval, with two-thirds of Britons still preferring it to an elected head of state. Camilla’s ranking of 43% puts her lower than her fellow royals, but is unlikely to trouble royal spinners too much...​

She likely paid 250K for that Khloe Kardashian product placement. The Ks are individually and collectively dragging their feet with promoting her wares. Tagging her basket photos with "all the K girls" makes their individual snubs in return less obvious. They are re-posting without comment so she adds emojis/etc when she acknowledges their response.

Sending out a gift basket containing her very ordinary products to a multi-millionaire is a pathetic plea for media attention.

Maybe her new show pitch to Netflix should be called “Kissing Up to the Kardashians.”
