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.

Lady C working overtime

There's a yacht club in Buenoes Aires, as it's on the coast. Is that what she meant by an "internship"? She does speak the language of swaying hips.

She'll immerse herself in a culture when duty calls, but not British culture since she "didn't know about the Commonwealth". Besides, Brits were supposed to kowtow to HER, she couldn't be bothered to learn their culture.

Queen didn't throw them out
Andrew's friendship with Marcus (Anderson) - people are putting 2 sets of photos together. The woman in the pic is an Australian singer
Second son syndrome (Harry)
(Back to Andrew)
Academy Awards (no nominations for H&M)
H&M throwing OS under a bus
Meghan setting Harry up
H&M tell so many lies they can't remember what they've said (or don't care to remember)
(History lesson)

I REALLY REALLY hope this gets picked up by some major news sources and Harry’s comments, effectively until now buried, get broadcast time.

Oprah, Meghan, Gayle, the contemporary version of the 3 hags in Macbeth, stirring their cauldron.

p.s. Whoever this lady is, she’s gutsy! i admire her forthright style and she seems to have receipts.

whoever this "lady" is, she's just another person cashing in on the two grifters

Yes and no.

She originally started publicly commenting because she was incensed by the couple's lies. Putting your neck out against these two makes people targets for the 'nice' people who would burn one their own family if they gave them a straw by mistake or using the wrong pronoun to describe a stranger.

She does a lot more homework and deep-diving than BLG or anyone else commenting on them.

Since H&M do nothing but get others to do the real work and make a ton of money, I think it's ok they get exploited like any other public figure.

I admit I didn't watch the whole thing but is is ok for her to exploit them and not for Oprah and Gayle to do same?

Harry could care less if he has blood on his hands. He has such anger about his mother, that he would welcome the unthinkable. There is nothing normal about him at this point. Unhinged is an understatement.

His photo op with Nicky Scott was to make Harry look good and like a climate activist. They both benefited from the picture. Considering that Scott is a grad of Eton and Cambridge, I can't imagine that they had much to talk about at Eton or anytime past that. Harry will "partner" and piggyback on anyone if it fits into his image of the moment. His PR people are probably thinking of ways to have him look as if he is moving past the criticism that he is receiving for his book. As much as they try, though, it has to hurt that he is being called out and being made fun of.

I was surprised by the tweet saying Tom Bower had commented on the birth story. He does, in an interview (go to five minute mark)



He said the description on what happened at Portland Hospital is “completely fictitious“. he Is still being careful with his words.

They’ll be there. Will you? Uplift is an immersive two-day summit where leaders, icons, and executives have the opportunity to learn how to drive performance and support their organizations’ most important asset: their people. This isn’t just another conference.

I know everyone recognizes him as Prince Harry but it's kind of ironic that he has stepped away from the family, slandered them, hated on them but is capitalizing on the name....I'm just sick of him and the Wife

Interesting that he thinks that Harry is phase one and Meghan is phase two. So she is going to drop her own bombs? Tell tales on the royals? How much can she tell given the 5 minutes that she was there.

I don't ever see any reconciliation of any kind for her and I don't think she cares. It would be good for the children, but she won't go there.

But, but , but they left out Duke of Sussex. I get it!! Prince Harry is a brand now! He is a commodity to be bought and sold, just like a yacht girl.

The karma is delicious. I remember when he made fun of William's thinning hair.
