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.

Another headache for KC3 , andrew’s accuser Virginia Giuffre will publish book before coronation

She can’t hurt Andrew much more. She extracted money out of him because he was a sitting duck. The other gazillionaires would have crushed her. PA has already had his HRH taken and his patronages, his place as a senior royal and she must have agreed to some sort of NDA in order to get the money. KC3 threw him out of BP and he may not even be at the coronation. VG will write about the other high profile types she was with, but without naming them directly.

I do find it odd that the royal family is ignoring the commentary about the fake pregnancy. They must be aware of the controversy. They have at their disposal ways to investigate this. The line of succession as a matter of public interest and it is not something that can be easily ignored by King C.

I question how many times the family actually saw her whilst she was pregnant. Did she ever have “mommy” discussions with Catherine or Sophie? I doubt it very much. It probably would never cross their minds that she would do something so unthinkable as to fake it or even wear a fake bump to enhance her size. I am sure she did the fake bump because she didn’t think what she had going was attention getting enough.

A simple physical exam would determine whether a woman has given birth or not. In this case twice.

Can you imagine asking for it? No way in hell. Maybe that would have worked 30 years ago but not today.

Meghan would be riding the victim train for the rest of her life if they insisted on an exam and the press would be driving the train.

Ignoring and not commenting are two different things

Although obviously I joke about the bump and the rent a kids I do feel like covering up a fake pregnancy and fertility issues is justifiable given the nobility’s ridiculously backward notions on adopted children and those born from some fertility procedures so I can see when they were initially playing royal ball everyone turned a blind eye to the mysterious bump because they didn’t want H to miss out on having a royal baby asap as they tend to do.

Nah, the only reason she got paid is because Andrew did nothing but incriminate himself. The royals would have ‘never explained’ and rode it out for free if they could have. There was nothing soft touch and absolutely certainly nothing innocent about that awful man.

The payment is a very clear concession for him to not have to appear in court or give a statement where he will further incriminate himself.

Tbh I am fuming he’s not going to court and facing charges but it’s what the dear old morally demented queen wanted for her dear morally demented son, (and used public money to pay for) so I guess trials are for poor people.

I mean, I know my kids came out of me and I wouldn’t allow that either- my genitals aren’t a freedom of information act request.

The only hope for this wish is if they join onlyfans and they have extremely…thorough content

Well if it was me and I was aware of the speculation (how could she not be) and had legitimately had a baby, I would want to prove the speculators wrong. Yes yes I know she is not normal. Just saying.

My thoughts are, if you are subject to a monarchy/nobility that's run on bloodlines, the least they can do is stick to the damn rules.

The nobility and royalty run the gaff based on how they're bred so much better than the rest of us, let them produce au natural or die out and we'll divi-up the 'spoils'.

Half my garden belongs to a Duke. He won't let me buy the one acre because it must be passed down through his precious blood-line along with another 47,999 acres. He lives an hour away in the capital and always has (unlike our neighbouring duke who's one of the richest men in the UK).

Seems like a very small ask for all their good luck just to make sure they're not buying or engineering babies.
