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.

Harry is pushing. He could be told not to say this the same way he was told not to use the HRH. It does show he isn’t afraid to overstep.

They keep making it sound like it is the fault of the family. Who started the trashing? Not them.

If you skip to about half way in, there is an interview with the woman that runs the House in Habit Instagram account and they talk a lot about the despicable duo and then the Elon / Amber trial. It’s pretty interesting.

That was hard to listen to. Heather McDonald kept interrupting to tell us how she too, is a California girl, and how she can relate to Meg but also, the woman being interviewed is probably a better writer than speaker.

She never seemed to get her point across with too many ums, like, and so, with a very halting way of speaking, and she never managed to get into specifics that we have discussed here.

I am shocked she got into the yacht business though. Has anyone else listened or just me?

Yeah, I was pretty surprised about the yacht business as well as later in the interview she said that it was no longer a secret that Amber heard’s child was fathered by Elon musk.

She mentioned the yacht business, but then never followed up with much to prove it, or to explain why she thought it. Other than to say photos have been scrubbed from the Internet.

I’ve never seen anyone look this awkward holding a baby.

And it's her OWN baby. Allegedly.

I doubt that she ever took any prenatal baby care classes. She always knows more than snyone about everything.

I did listen but it dragged on a bit without much detail. She sounds like a bit of a Valley Girl. I did follow her IG, House in Habit, for awhile, especially with the whole missing Gabby where's Brian saga, then with the Johnny Depp trial. She does go into a lot of detail and it was interesting, but after awhile, all of these news stories get tiresome to me.

The photos of them at Ellen's party, odd that she's not in her normal position of glued to him. Or is that only for when they're at public events to show how in love they are?

The pair of photos seem like "men on one side, ladies on the other". Maybe the guests were asked to split that way to surprise Ellen? Zed's outfit looks to be her usual ill-fitting garb.

Not an easy question:

I think that’s a really easy question tbh.
‘It’s at the monarch’s discretion, he hasn’t made a statement yet and I wouldn’t want to contradict him.’
Not to get political but sometimes lying and fudging is so ingrained they can’t help but make a mountain out of a molehill.

The use of "Royal patron" within the sentence doesn't even make sense.

Is it a So Cal thing that natives ask questions and then interrupt before the person asked can answer or as they're asking? Seems so rude. She admits it at the end.

The host mentions that someone M went to high school with (and was on something praising M to camera) was not nice about TW behind her back, recanting tales of beauty behaviour and stealing boyfriends (although I don't think you can steal a BF, a handbag yes, a boy, no - he is supposed to have a mind of his own). Nightmare stories about Meghan

They still owe a nanny back-pay! If they owe one, I'm sure they owe more.

Meghan didn't do the interviews for podcasts???

Meghan isolating Harry from friends and family is abusive and coercive, that's true.

This is old though. From the 2021-2022 impact report of Well child.

not sure why it’s circulating again? An attempt to ride in Catherine’s launch?
