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.

Ok, so based on the vegetation behind him, he’s in California.
Unless it is a potted plant.

If you do a close up of the video, you will see that she is breaking KC3 commemorative coronation plates.

Yes, poor woman! You should have seen it when she saw the sapphires...

And this is why appeasement and changing coronation traditions just will not work.

This was his one chance to strengthen his position.

Someone explain this, because I don’t get it.

The press writes deliberately provoking headlines based on whatever “royal expert” at the moment thinks was going on at the time. Then everyone on social media goes nuts because they haven’t learned yet how to identify clickbait from provable fact.

Imo he could be anywhere. It looks like he is changing his hair color, but that could be lighting. He is being mocked for saying only 1 sentence in German - a 4 year old can do that. Such a farce.

Well, William actually has a brain while Harold...

... he inherited Diana's wit.

W and H were both raised to be in the family business which requires a unique set of skills, good wardrobe, affability, composure, stay within budget of the money offered
Totally different skills are required for real jobs eg hard work 35-40 hrs a week, do what boss says, domain skills (training, education etc.), networking, financial skills (pay taxes)
H rebelled and is trying to do a new job for which he has almost no training
W stayed within parameters and has the firm's support network to help him

It is possible that they were concerned about potential microphones…

Seriously--are people JUST noticing this? We here caught the microphone fiddling right away! He couldn't stop checking it, and we could see the white microphone under her collar.

I think it has already been reported that Prince William is not on the same page as his father about Hairball attending the Coronation. William is limited in what he can press for because his father has the final word.

I wish that Hairball would stay in the USA. We don't want him here at all, ever again.

Well we don't want him here (USA) either.

Absolutely! It appears that the source of many press releases has often been linked to TW. Supposedly, TW's people were the ones who informed newspapers & magazines of TW's determination to have the kids close to grandpa (the one with the $$$$$$$).

Ouch I've not been a fan of Angela's recently, but that was a master burn.

When we say, [give me] “the wretched refuse,” we don’t mean British royalty.

Might as well be in London...

Her jaw betrays her.

Always.

Yet absolutely true. She was never going to get an acting job better than her ensemble role in Suits, certainly never a starring role.
