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 must really be old then. I grew up in the 70s and I never, ever shared lipgloss or lipstick with anyone, even my closest friends. "Communal lipgloss"? Ew. But I will ask my daughters and see what they say.

I asked mine. She's in her mid-20's. She said absolutely no way, never would she share lip gloss or lipstick with anyone. Not before Covid and definitely not after Covid.

Has someone checked on Scobie?

If there is a sex tape they’ll just insist it’s fake.

I doubt there is a sex tape. Even if there was, it would somehow be skewed to make her a victim rather than an active participant.

That is bad bad bad photoshop, this was from the mockumentary and it did not look like this.

It looked pretty ridiculous in the mockumentary and didn't need further enhancement.

That‘s a halo around the bump…

Diana's stardust

Harold missed the cross, but can still get the dress. Perfect for the coronation that they may not attend.

Found this while browsing Twitter. This is either bad photoshop by a hater or an alien pregnancy.

Worse than bad photoshop. Lazy and careless and didn't even try photoshop!

Meghan Markle the mastermind behind Prince Harry’s Spare

Experts are of the opinion that Meghan Markle is the true writer of Spare. If not fully the content is majorly curated with the help of Meghan.

And that's a horrible likeness of Diana.

admittedly I'm older then Meghan (and apparently than this writer) but this just seems ridiculous to me

Hygienic? No. But a way teenage girls built connections during a tumultuous life stage? Yes.

I guess love em or hate em the media believes there is interest in the two dimwits so people like this get to publish their stupid editorials - and in one of the most prestigious newspapers in the country

Blah blah blah, how many times are we going to hear the same tired story.

I kind of believe they did like her. I certainly think they loved the fact she was a ‘WOC’ and god knows if we haven’t heard that a million times since.

but if there was all these doubts and it’s obvious she wasn’t up for the job maybe they shouldn’t have thrown themselves into an expensive state marriage with some sleazy tart with a very confusing backstory H had known for less than a year. Maybe just you know, give her a probation period, tell her she can get married in Croydon registry office in a nice dress from pronuptia only and see what happened?

It’s just pathetic excuses for incompetence and further arguments that the royals don’t know what they are doing despite working the same job their entire lives.

Tbf to M&S I’ve never seen a fascinator that sloppy for sale there. I’m sure it was a very expensive bit of crap.

Again, she would look miles better if someone gave her a good long bath, possibly in antiseptic and threw that awful weave in the bin and found *anything* that wouldn’t hang like dog ears.

I think they’d show up to the opening a sphincter if they could get photos of them and we’ve seen this twice now so a hard no is the only sensible route if C wants to dig himself out of this endless cycle of passive aggression. Very much go no contact with the narc.

To be fair, that hunting cap with a silly bit of Maribou is miles more structured and makes more sense conceptually with a skirt suit than the used napkin on a hair clip M was wearing.

This is one of her neatest outfits for sure. She still looks incredibly cheap, of course, and her fake tan is absolutely luminous against white but by her standards it’s ok. I especially like the fact someone managed to tie down that greasy weave for a change.

Lol....this is a brilliant piece of writing You absolutely pin pointed the issue down to a tee!

Thank you so so much !!! I’m actually nearly in tears reading the truth in this thread for once - had to be nothing to do with the gruesome twosome!!!

I think that was what upset me most about the royals visit to Graceland - the press showed zillions of photos of them all four mocking Elvis with the glasses on no respect at all just a big stag party / hen party do - yet at that time ( before the recent big refit) a large section of the area known as “ The trophy room “ (where Elvis has his gold discs on display in his lifetime ) had been made into an exhibit to display just a small tiny weeny bit of his charitable donations -which started from the very earliest year of his fame and continued all his life -such a shame none of the entitled four royals paid attention and looked at that area instead of mocking 1970,s style and furnishings - maybe the gruesome twosome should read up on Elvis and learn how to become useful wealthy humans but however they evolve there was and ever will be only one Elvis - who by the way paid more tax than anyone he used no fancy tax dodges like celebs today he believed in paying his way and loved his country - his manager would have skinned a louse but even he couldn’t risk avoiding tax and inviting IRS scrutiny he wasn’t who he claimed to be - he wasn’t American he was Dutch and many argue a murderer or certainly a man evading justice for murder or manslaughter in Holland who was an illegal immigrant in the USA with no passport - which was also the reason (apart from his army service in Germany )Elvis was never allowed to leave the USA to tour - the Colonel wouldn’t let him go without him and he couldn’t leave

I never knew that Elvis never toured outside the US! The things you learn on this site

and called an entire nation (that she took a title of) RACIST

And she did such damn good job of it that she got an award, lest we forget !

 

[pomeline]

I don't want to go off-topic but she seems to be a friend of the Sussexes, unfortunately. Whoever guessed Eug is pregnant is correct.

My thoughts on a sex tape and MM getting kicked out of the UK. I have no doubt that BP had lots of dirt on MM scrubbed, and it likely included a tape. Against her better judgment and out of grandmotherly love, and also to avoid any more royal marital drama, TQ lukewarmly agreed that her rumored favorite grandson could marry a woman with a highly questionable past. But after MM's bullying of palace staffers and getting caught taking pics inside the Cambridges' residence, along with other missteps, TQ decided enough was enough and she offered the Sussexes the face saving option of "stepping down" as royals and moving to Canada. It makes a lot of sense to me. She knew all along....
