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.

I can't even comment on "Queen Meghan"'s moronic tweet. If this person truly believes Jews about to be slaughtered had "White Privilege", I think they need some serious help.
I would actually say MeGain has had "white privilege" her whole damn life. She only became "black" when she married a Todger.

I know that some terms are 'sacred' these days, and 'white privilege' is one of them. However, it makes me sad in so many different ways, including that it can hurt so many struggling people and it emphasizes divisions between people that shouldn't exist in this day and age.
TW was privileged to have access to a good education and a decent living. Harold was privileged to have been born into a well-to-do family with zillions of resources available to him. Too bad the two didn't appreciate it and made something good out of what their 'lucky stars' brought them. I apologize for my crises of acute idealism today, it must be lack of coffee. Wishing you all a wonderful Sunday.

Pouring you a cup, hon.
I’m right there with you.
It saddens me terribly to see the division and intolerance out there, not to mention the insanity.
That account is a parody, and the person behind it sits there and posts things that are more and more outrageous and nasty, just to get attention.
Attention seems to be the addiction many have these days.

You can’t make this up!
Put up a tent in your backyard, fill it with clowns, elephants and acrobats, then grab a bullhorn to complain that there’s a circus back there!

No elephants please! Wonderful creatures with intelligence way surpassing these 2 dopes.

Not just attention, money as well. As long as social media is lucrative there will be people pushing the envelope to cash in.

Probably will be a bumpy ride until the coronation.
Time for the second cup

Don't think it's parody. She is busy praising Merchie as a TRUE prince.

Describes herself as:
Queen Meghan #1 Fan DEFENDING Her to my Last Breath Solar Panels on my roof. Just doing my part. Gender Studies Ph.D. Harvard.

Also a member of the Squats.

Nailed it!

The UK's actual most eligible bachelor (sorry, Wills! He's richer and his fiancée won't be the victim of a relentless manhunt) is off the market.

ETA: to keep it relevant, someone commented how they hoped the duke did a better background check than the BRF on Ghoul and a bunch of sugars freaked. Why are they even following actual royal reporters when they never post anything they can agree with (because otherwise they wouldn't have picked up on that one single comment so quickly).

Worth $13 billion … she’s not very smart, is she? Plates are crashing in Montesh!tshow even now.

I guess an Ivy League education means nothing these days. I wonder if some of her Tweets should be sent to the Gender Studies department, I'm sure they can narrow down their current PhD students.

I'm still not sure whether or not this is a parody account, but her Ivy League education is as real as the nonsense she writes imo.

What do we think, will Harry make the list? They grew up together, Grosvenor's mother is William's godmother and he himself is George's godfather, and Harry went to his 21st birthday party. But also, the man is HUGELY private and I can't see him wanting loose lipped Ghoul anywhere near him.

Wasn't there a rumour she grossly misbehaved at one of his London parties?

Nooooo, I hope not, but it’s likely. Did Hugh receive a coronation invite?
Article from 2015 -

Prince Harry is pictured for the first time since he secretly flew to Africa last month to join armed forces battling rhino poaching gangs​

• The 30-year-old is travelling around the continent on conservation projects
• He dropped into the Khulula Care for Wild to meet orphaned baby rhinos
• The usually clean-shaven Prince sported a ginger beard and baseball cap
• He was accompanied by Hugh Grosvenor, 25, godfather to Prince George

Now it’s Heir Grylls!

The 30-year-old, who is travelling around the continent working on front-line conservation projects, showed off his newly-grown stubble as he posed for pictures at a centre in South Africa.

WTF!!! If she was in Germany I'd report her. This is at least in the grey zone of a criminal offense over here.

This has got to be a parody account. All of its posts are too over the top.

Where is the post about Harry not liking Doria I can’t find it now?

Besides him being only 32, I think he would have been a very unlikely victim for her. He was raised by parents who withheld his inheritance from his grandfather for several years because they felt an 18yo could only be spoiled by suddenly having millions at his fingertips. Then he became a billionaire and owner of like a quarter of London aged 25 and still kept a good head on his shoulders. The family is also very lowkey...they give millions to charity but you rarely ever hear about it, and the picture the happy couple used to announce the engagement didn't even show the ring.

They would have had no use for the flashy, mannerless gold digger.

It's all over the news, so it looks like someone was successful in bringing back old grudges...

This woman is the definition of a nut job, she isn’t well… famewhore psycho is what she is. Go raise your kids, they are your meal ticket now…

I don't like calling a person mentally ill because I don't have the training to substantiate that statement. All I have is decades of working with people at their worst and my observations. That said, I do think there is real illness in her case. She has gone beyond norms and even eccentricities that society considers "normal" behavior. The need to harm, even in a figurative sense, has gone beyond the acceptable. There is truth to the pen is mightier than the sword. It certainly can be more hurtful in an emotional sense.

After this last fiasco with the Telegraph, a media outlet should be very careful in what they believe coming from her camp. The fact that this article was edited 5 times is a clue to how much trouble the paper felt they were in. What they should have done was pull the entire piece.
