Prince Harry and Meghan Markle thread

Kate looked kind of dowdy IMHO. Meghan looked more modern and fresh, but those white wide leg pants (high fashion, or not) was a bit “extra” in white. I’m all for wide leg pants, but them dragging on the ground and so large they could pass for a maxi dress bottom in white, is just plain ridiculous to me. If she did, indeed, wear black heels - that would look weird, too. Although, I’m not sure what kind of heel you could really pull off with those clown pants.

i bet she misses the days when she could dress more like that - instead of the queen-to-be and mother of 3. that dress was more like sunday school meeting than a nice casual day.
but clown pants......no. at least she didn't look as bad a Pipa!
 
Speaking from his seaside home in Rosarito in Mexico, the retired lighting director, 73, also offered an apology, saying: “If I had one message for her it would be that I’m sorry for anything that went wrong. I’d like to put our differences behind us and get together. I miss you very much."
Family stuff is messy so I have no comment on the rest of it, but jeez I hate non-apologies like this - too many public figures apologize like this. Why doesn't anyone know how to apologize for real - understand and acknowledge what you did wrong, take responsibility, apologize, and promise to work hard to change and grow and not do it again? Phrases like "anything that went wrong," "any possible inconvenience," "sorry IF I hurt anyone," are so passive and total cop outs.
 
here he goes again!



Duchess of Sussex 'is struggling to cope and not answering my calls' says father



Thomas Markle has said his daughter Meghan is struggling to cope with the burdens of royalty, and refuses to take his calls.

He said he is worried the Duchess of Sussex is hiding the pressure of her new life behind a “pained” smile as she adjusts to her “prim” duties as wife of the fifth-in-line to the Throne.

But he revealed she has not been in touch since a phone call after the Royal Wedding while he was recovering from the heart operation which caused him to miss her big day.

He told the Sun on Sunday: “My thing about my daughter right now is that I think she is terrified.

“I see it in her eyes, I see it in her face and I see it in her smile. I’ve seen her smile for years. I know her smile. I don’t like the one I’m seeing now.”

He said that while her expression might be due to a “bad couple of days” it worried him, and led him to conclude she was under “too much pressure”.

Adding that he could “die soon”, he said he wishes they would reconcile so he could tell her how proud he was - but she no longer answers her phone to him and staff at Kensington Palace will not return his texts.

Mr Markle said: “I had a heart attack, doesn’t anybody care? I could actually die soon. Does she want this to be the last thing we’ve said to each other?”

He said they pair had never gone so long without speaking, and that he wanted to clear the air and tell her how proud he is.

Speaking from his seaside home in Rosarito in Mexico, the retired lighting director, 73, also offered an apology, saying: “If I had one message for her it would be that I’m sorry for anything that went wrong. I’d like to put our differences behind us and get together. I miss you very much.”

In early May Thomas Markle caused headlines around the world when it emerged he had colluded with a photographer to sell staged ‘paparazzi’ shots of his wedding preparations.

After the scandal broke, Meghan is understood to have forgiven her father and his invitation to the Windsor ceremony was not withdrawn.

But he developed chest pains on the day he was due to be driven to the airport and went instead to Sharp Chula Vista Medical Center, ten miles over the US border, where surgeons installed stents to open his clogged arteries.

Oh please. If he really cared he would shut up and start acting with some dignity. Leave her alone to enjoy her new life and happiness.

It is a very cute outfit, though the pant length is a miss for me. I like her bag and hat though it is a shame that the rules of the Royal Box precluded her ability to wear it for the match.
 

For those who were asking about Meghan's height earlier...

When Meghan Markle became engaged to Prince Harry, her sense of style was thrust into the spotlight.

But when the ex-Suits actress stepped onto a sporting ground in Dublin earlier this week, there was one question on everyone’s minds – why on earth did she choose to wear stilettos on grass?!

Anyone who has ever worn heels on grass knows just how damn difficult it is to walk without sinking.

But it turns out the Duchess of Sussex’s preference for classic stilettos isn’t just for fashion’s sake.

According to Glamour, the 36-year-old chooses heels over flats at events with Prince Harry to avoid creating an 'unbalanced' look in pictures.

By wearing heels, Meghan, who is seven inches shorter than her husband, helps take away the height difference.

Speaking to Daily Mail, celebrity photographer Glenn Gratton said "couples with a big height difference look slightly unbalanced in pictures, and often the smaller of the two ends up looking even smaller and is constantly looking up at their partner.

The Windsors are a particularly tall family, with Prince Harry standing in at 6ft 1 and Prince William at 6ft 3.

Unlike Meghan, who is 5ft 6, the Duchess of Cambridge Kate Middleton is 5ft 10, meaning she is often seen wearing flats alongside her husband Prince William.

Meghan's outfit choices, including her preference for high-waisted skirts, is also used to elevate the appearance of her height.

"Careful use of wardrobe choices will be important for Harry and Meghan to make sure the couples height difference is minimised," Gratton said.

"The shape of skirts will also give the optical illusion to make her look taller than she actually is."
