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.

Interesting. I’m thick waisted with a longer torso. I prefer a high waisted Jean bc it provides some definition. i muffin top with low waisted pants.

meghan is short waisted but needs the definition, so I’m not sure what types of pants might suit her.* On this thread, posts denigrate her givenchy and dior looks as they didn’t really fit properly, but she looked like she was striving to create some form of hourglass silhouette.

*ETA: But, I strongly dislike it when a short woman wears pants that puddle onto the floor. It just makes me think they will get dirty and that they need to be hemmed.

of course, the fact that she’s orange or brown due to poorly applied self tanner; or reshaped from cosmetic procedures or plastic surgery; or wears designer clothes that don’t fit. . . Well that might be par for the course if she were simply an actress who wanted to retire to pursue worthwhile causes, but that isnt the case here. She really is her own worst enemy.

Tbh I think pants are a battle she’s not cut out for. Just put on a pretty floral dress for spring or a monochrome office dress for winter and sort that straggly hair out and she’d look alright but she’s just not stylish- her look is very limited.

The 00s were her best time because she has the very trashy 00s LA party girl aesthetic. A skimpy bubble hem dress, diamanté strap platforms and tacky clear lip gloss are just her -heck she could even wear a von Dutch cap to the races
It is ironic she was teasing Paris Hilton when she seems even more stuck in that period than her.

Interesting piece of information on TWs "dear friend" Misan Harriman.

He’s not a photographer now lol - his position in the field was always obviously the result of connections over talent

This happens all the time in media- people play the unlikely victor while ignoring the class dynamics they function in. I’m sure he’s a fierce environmentalist also

She looked better before.

She never looked like that either.

Gotta love Megsy wearing coral linen balloon shorts and matching blazer emphasizing her non waist and her stick legs. Sponge Bob style at its finest.

Who the heck wears a summer outfit in Downtown LA when it’s a high of 73 and a low of 50 degrees Fahrenheit?

Her clutch and high heels with that outfit make no sense, either. TW seems perpetually confused about the weather (remember wool on wool for 80 degree weather in NYC for the UN meetings?) and can’t seem to dress for appropriately on any occasion.

She’s guilty of continually “trying too hard.” She tries so hard to be relevant, a style maker, genuine, but miserably fails at all three.

I’ve never seen such a poser in my life. I would love to tell H to go back to his own country and take his vapid wife with him.

Good riddance. We have no use for her in California.

No.

Cher has repeatedly said that all claims of her being part Cherokee are false. Claims of her Cherokee heritage first surfaced when she sang the hit song, "Half Breed" in 1973.
Dad was Armenian and her mom was German and Irish.

I think I read somewhere that the theory hasn't been completely put to rest yet. There were genealogists who had possibly found something. But great cheekbones can really come from anywhere. For example while my mom's DNA test showed some very distant Native ancestry, I'd be more likely to believe the cheekbones in her family come from either somewhere from Asia (which would explain almond shaped eyes), or are due to Polish or Nordic ancestry.

Also, whoever said your chin doesn't change. I don't know how old the person posting it was, but believe me - it does. When you reach your thirties, your face does some sort of a freakish Transformers type of change where new angles appear where they didn't exist before and your face tends to get wider.

Oh my gosh, husband and I are watching the Lakers game now on TV and guess who they just flashed onscreen, watching the game at Crypto (previously Staples Center)? MM and Prince Harry! It was just a split second though.

So they had to go to a Lakers game to prove they're together and Harold is in L.A.? Did Woko Ohno have her new face on? I guess we can look forward to watching Harold exhaust himself bouncing back and forth over the Atlantic like a Chinese weather balloon then.

What does she do to her clothing to make them so wrinkly?! And I swear that outfit was something my mother wore around summer 1991.

Edit: Oh it's linen... Then I can perhaps understand the wrinkles.

I just don’t understand why she dresses like a woman in her 80s.

urgh.

It'll work for her next marriage.

If the Getty clan weren't so successful in breaking up her sugar daddy wedding plans, I would've been expecting wedding pics during the coronation. You know, just a few leaked or released photos of her intimate nuptials, a secret pre-divorce ceremony, conducted six months before the actual divorce. TW flitting down the aisle in her Dior Duchess Dracula cape creation escorted by Tyler Perry towards her geriatric dreamboat. Now I am not sure what we'll get after those dreams are squashed and she made an appearance with Todger.

A skimpy bubble hem dress

The bubble hem was also popular in 1989/1990

Sadly yes.

I swear that outfit was something my mother wore around summer 1991.

I remember pink and yellow linen shorts and jacket combos from the mid 1980s. . . Maybe it was an enduring trend back then lol.

 

[Bagatha Christie]

Lol they are definitely not courtside- I guess we know why she wore pink if she’s in the nosebleeds.

Why are they wearing suits? I thought most people wear jeans, sweats or team merch to games?

Well I know really - trying to get attention by looking classy by being more turned out for basketball than grandma’s funeral

I could be wrong about the year but I swear I've seen my mother in that outfit. I was a kid in the 1980s. Linen did make a comeback each summer so...

Nosebleeds?! That is obviously the Royal Box! Courtside would be below all the plebs, the higher, the mightier of course!

Look at her chin!!!!!!

And she got some cheekbones too

 

[Aminamina]

I just don’t understand why she dresses like a woman in her 80s.

urgh.

She’s a Pretty Woooman now! Remember: The Prince rescues her and she saves him right back

I'm more fascinated how he wasn't originally Ghoul's friend, but Harry's acquaintance.

I wish I never read the comments...
