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.

There are so many things wrong with this post I don’t even know where to begin, but I’ll start with the utterly filthy baking sheet…



Much the way her fashion missteps serve as proof that she styles herself, posts like this serve as proof that she styles her own social media posts. Food photography is such an art, far beyond the skill level of most hobbyists. I think it’s time Meg finds room in her budget for a professional. This is just really really bad.

Making “relatable” happen! Even with well-used pan they could have at least made the cookies even in shapes, I don’t bake but I see my friends make an effort to make it even and pretty—without the flower sprinkles.

We must always remember that everything she does is deliberate. She’s creating optics.

When she shows us a rough, worn out baking sheet, it’s because she wants everyone to believe she is constantly baking for her family and she wore it out herself from so much cooking. She is trying to build mom cred! :lol:

Instead, I think it’s more likely she borrowed it from staff or maybe sent an assistant down to Goodwill to pick up a well used sheet for a few bucks.

It came with the house when they bought it like everything else.

She's the #1 grifter! She's not paying for it. Either CH is somehow still sending her clothing or an assistant found it in a Montecito consignment store or pulled some sort of strings to borrow it from somewhere.

Why is a struggling company giving clothing for free, or even at a discount, to a person who consistently does not wear them well? When you see brand ambassadors for LV, Dior, or Chanel, the celeb looks great and it all fits.

She really thinks you can just throw flowers around and all will be well.
Meghan, we have EYES!!! We are not hypnodazzled like your dumb husband.

That's ridiculous, prices are insane these days. Do you think she gets a freebie or a huge discount?

Is it current season?

I recall some tales that during her 72 days, she had people hired just to harass companies and designers for freebies. Last year, it was pointed out that much of her "new" designer wear was old stock. Speculation then was that either it was clothes bought using Bank of Dad and salted away for later, or previous seasons' samples or unsold stock which companies had written off and gave her to stop the harassment.

Herrera does seem to provide a fair proportion of her fancy clothes. I'm guessing she has been schmoozing someone there ever since the days of the inverted nipple dress. Which dress was it with a fitting filmed? The one which HazNoWits bragged had several atelier staff crawling under her skirt? Was that Herrera too? Likely she hopes to become the CH "Face".
