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 think it would be boring....we've heard it all from him...the racism against the Wife, the loss of his mother, the fear that the paps would kill his Wife....what else is there?

Diana died about 25 years ago. To a LOT of the Half-Price Prince's followers she's not even a memory, and even to the older generations who admired or even adored her, her memory has faded over the decades. The whole Diana Thing becomes less relevant every year. Harry's going to be scrambling for new buzzwords to try and keep his audience.

Better mark your calendars. Tickets are $33 and include a copy of Waagh.

The book is still going for $22. That means you can watch Harry for the bargain price of an additional $11, less than the cost of a movie ticket.

Quite a fall from when he got paid $1 million for speaking to a room full of people right after he quit.

Is SHE planning on attending w 2 children in tow? How do you hold a private citizen's (aged 4 years) party in the middle of the event of the Century and expect anything other than crickets? And certainly Pa and Mum will be elsewhere collecting grist for the mill?

The kiddos are not planning on attending the Coronation as far as I have seen at this point.

@chocbuttons1
So are they not going to be with Archie for his birthday?

They are. The Coronation is expected to take 1-2 hours tops of their time, including going to and from the event. KC3 wants the ceremony wrapped in 1 hr.

Tell it like it is, Tom.

Not sure I'd consider 40 million pounds very little money, but ok.

“She’d imagined he’d be worth hundreds of millions if not billions and she’s having to make up for it now.

She is kind of stupid though, isn't she. You can google what THE QUEEN owned, how could she think he was worth hundreds of millions.

She's more than stupid though.

If they'd both played the game, kept quiet, worked a few days a week shaking hands, and made a nice life for themselves as popular members of the BRF, they could have had millions in the bank untouched and had the billionaire lifestyle (she so aspired to) all paid for by the tax payers, literally being treated like royalty.

They both gave away a lifetime of wearing priceless diamonds for the promise of owning their own glass replicas.

Everyone says that we shouldn't underestimate her, 'shrewd cookie' 'clever with assets' etc. Hers are hustler moves she sold H on. She's an operator and not wise, she literally cut off her nose to spite her face because she's only interested in wealth for it's own sake and not what it can bring - if anyone is very, very lucky.

It was likely factored into the Most Popular Royal game plan. She sold him the idea that once they had popular support and charmed the Queen, the throne was theirs for the taking, and with it would be all the money, palaces and tiaras she could want. He bought into her fantasy and thinks she is a genius.

Absolutely. She’s stupid and arrogant, a really bad combination as (with many narcs) she hasn’t any self awareness nor concern as to the ramifications of her behavior.

Ps I love Tyrus! He’s spot on.
