Like the critics who sit up wanting Prince Harry for themselves will ever approve of anything the Duchess of Sussex says or does.They did it to Kate for yrs,Camilla too....its weird.Camilla has been forgiven .So has Kate....now it Meghan's turn.An its disgusting to witness.Its like they don’t realize these Princes would never choose them...if those relationships did not work out.Give it a rest cows.

So she did virtually everything to prevent getting pregnant (which probably also involved abortions). Now, of course, everything is different as she needs an anquor baby.

I think she has been pregnant before but had an abortion - this would explain why she got pregnant that fast. Having been preggers before (even without eventually having the child) increases your chance of getting preggers again. (This is due to small amounts pregnancy hormones remaining in your system even long after having been pregnant.)

Watch Nutmeg carefully in this video. I noticed three things: (1) clinging to Harry (big surprise there); (2) fidgeting with the cuffs of her shirt like the guy she just shook hands with may have cooties and (3) emotional interaction with the children who are waiting outside is sadly lacking. They talk to her but she just shakes hands and moves down the line.

The Pregnancy Demands article is interesting for more than the alleged contract with the hapless Engelson. If you read down, the "source" talks about how Meghan "likes to be in control" and how Harry is "going to have to step up" and l"et her be the center of attention" and how she now gets to be a feminist but royal (she gets to make speeches but get taken care of in style).

I figured the DM would lay off until after the christening, but apparently, with the tour in its later phase and interest back here in Blighty waning, they can resume their attacks on her.

Which in and of itself is interesting, and gives you some idea of how virulently they hate her.

From the DM article on the "pregnancy contract""

"'She loves to be pampered, so she will be as happy as can be I'm sure,' continued the friend.

'She has always wanted kids and a 'nuclear family' structure, so she will be very excited about it. She is going to be beaming into motherhood.

'And to be able to have it all - to be a symbol of feminism and empowerment as well as motherhood and royalty at the same time - it is all that she could want.'

The friend added: 'Meghan likes to be in control, and her image is very important, so she could be a little scared and insecure about what's to come. I hope [Harry] is ready to hold her hand and let her be the center of attention'.

But Harry might still be in for a 'bumpy' ride.

'Of course her own problems with her father are well-documented, so she will be setting Harry some very high standards.

'She has essentially dismissed her father to be with him, so she will be expecting him to step up for sure.'"

Dear me, that is as sweetly vicious a set of statements as one could hope to see about Meghan Markle, not least because the all ring true, and my guess is that the "friend" are in reality the observations of royal reporters who have already seen what she is up close but are hiding behind the anonymous "source".

The pregnancy with the daughter was managed like eggshells by her OB GYN until she was safely into the viability stage, but the one with her son was just "regular" and no special measures needed.

Meg thought she'd won the lottery landing Harry. Turns out, it's all dull social engagements, borrowed clothing, and - quelle horreur - no social media. Prior to this tour, our little Bean would have been lording it above Jassica. Now, I'm not so sure. With Jassica's spot on GMA, she has the audience Meg previously dreamed of, and the role Meg so desperately wanted of social influencer. Plus a healthy paycheck, celebrity cachet, and access to parties where she can schmooze and booze. But look at her life now; yes, she has a global audience but the majority have seen right through her. I think she'd trade places with her alleged bff in a heartbeat now she truly knows what it's like being Harry's bride. My predicition is Jassica's new role will further intensify the dissatisfaction Meg is feeling in her own life, exacerbate her jealousy, and as her body changes dramatically with the pregnancy promote her deep seated insecurities. Look for their friendship to splinter, and the tenuous foundations of her and Harry's marriage begin to severly severely crumble.

At the Queen's Coronation, the Queen of Tonga (Queen Salote) caused a huge sensation. The crowds adored her, and the only people to receive more applause were the Queen herself, and Churchill. Tonga was never a colony, It was a protectorate, I believe, but it remained a separate kingdom. It is a member of the Commonwealth, though, and the Queen is very deeply devoted to the Commonwealth. The royal family of Tonga has always shown the British Royals great hospitality and respect, and they deserved to be given it in turn. This isn't Meghan's first time curtseying. She should have mastered it by now. Several months ago, there was a bit of a controversy, when people commented on Princess Anne curtsying to Queen Letizia. Well, a Queen outranks a Princess, even from another country. The Royals know this very well.

Meghan's curtsy in Tonga was embarrassing. She keeps making herself an embarrassment by not mastering simple bits of protocol. If she had delivered a full, formal curtsy, she wouldn't receive any criticism, only praise for her modest, dignified behavior (which is pretty much non-existent). She has plenty of opportunities to turn the bad press around, but she keeps muffing them (apologies if Brits don't know that term).

Meghan and Harry's behavior has been so atrocious during this tour I fully expect the Queen to double down on their titles and honors upon their return. Maybe make their unborn kid a Knight of the Realm, or something very grand she pulls out of her ass. That's how she rolls. An incompetent asshole family member?

Very interesting. Apparently William is now attending the Duchy of Cornwall meetings and could have a say in how money is doled out from it in the future.

From Messytheduchess' IG page comment: "two days back after the dinner William was seen attending the duchy of Cornwall meeting he may have brought restrictions on the money spending that is why Meghan was seen wearing the dress with price tag she may have returned it."

This combined with the news that Wills and Harry are "divorcing" their joint teams at Kensington Palace is BIG. William is stepping up to be the future king and taking on more duties that will lead to that role. In the meantime, Haz and Meghan don't have any future with the crown as the Cambridge kids are next in line after their dad and his dad. As time goes by, Harry and Meg will become more and more irrelevant and William could clamp down on Wallis' exorbitant spending. Unlike Charles, Wills is not under Meghan's spell.

Anyway, Wills and Kate's Haters always complain they take a day off during big Tours. They don't work enough, should not take day off during a Tour, yadda, yadda, yadda.

Here we can see why a day off or two are important during a long ass Tour, because people get tired and make obvious mistakes without them.

Fergie once said that everyone expected her to dress like a princess, but she didn't have a princess's budget. MM's engagement photo dress was £54,000. I don't think Kate, Diana or Camilla have ever had such a costly dress, apart from Kate's wedding gown, so there is no way that the Hazbean's could ever buy it. So they're blatantly merching. I wonder if this separation of royal offices is due to this behaviour.

R83 - oh, "speculative". That's the operative word, then. I would say the columnist here is just stirring the pot. Charles's stipends to his sons' households supplements whatever their cut of the Sovereign Grant doesn't pay for, and the SG supports activities and expenses associated with their official duties. of which a PR and secretarial staff are considered part. As the BRF's website states, Charles helps to support his sons' households with allocations from the Duchy revenues, and amongst those expenses are their wives wardrobes.

So the idea that separating their PR and office staff will get Meghan kicked off the Duchy's "payroll" is nonsense. There is no Duchy "payroll", there is Charles's voluntary goodwill in parting with some of those revenues so that his sons and their families can enjoy the lifestyle that they expect, regardless of whether their personal "incomes" can support them, but those costs are allegedly those not covered by the Sovereign Grant.

Nannies, chefs, new cars, redecoration of homes, vacations, non-official portions of their wardrobes, hairdressers, accountants (you don't think Kate and William, and Meghan and Harry, sit down at the end of each month like other couples and go over the household bills, writing out cheques, etc., do you?) - those are the things the Duchy pays for.

Splitting those offices means absolutely nothing to Charles's support for his sons (and, naturally, their wives and children) lifestyles.

So dream on.

Kate appeared today with William in casual dress for a visit to Essex. Kate is wearing a black and white checked Chesterfield type blazer with black skinny jeans and black suede ankle boots, with loose hair - but the difference in overall look between her and Meghan in similar outfits is instructive. Kate has the figure for it, she looks sporty but neat and pulled together, very English countryside, and every aspect of the ensemble works with the others.

Kate effortlessly manages the look that Meghan wants to achieve but can't because her body type - short, stocky, boxy, thick-middled, with shapeless stick legs - is precisely the opposite of Kate's tall, leggy, small-waisted one.

Meghan looks as if she wants to carve out a "different" look, but in fact, she wants to be Kate. She wants to be the English Duchess that Kate so naturally became - the checked trenches, the blazers and tight jeans with boots, the loose flowing hair, the countryside clothes - they're all pure Kate, only they look artificial on Meghan and natural on Kate.

R120 - Yes, it's a look that girls have been wearing for decades, but it comes straight out of the English countryside, horsey but feminine, the landed gentry look that Ralph Lauren tried to market . . . its roots are obvious, which is why it looks artificial on Meghan Markle, and natural on Kate - a Home Counties girl from Bucklebury who spent her prep school years playing field hockey, went to St. Andrews, and on whom it looks as natural as breathing. Because it IS.

The real merching Meghan Markle is doing is of herself - playing a role and trying her damndest to look as if she isn't, and failing.

Harry has looked noticeably unhappy in the final legs of the tour, and word that William is now attending Duchy of Cornwall planning meetings makes the handwriting on the wall fairly clear: the Cambridges are preparing to step up the ladder to Prince and Princess of Wales in the near future, leaving Harry and Meghan with lots of slogwork, far less income, and a rung down in importance.

If the rumours about HM are true, that she plans to step aside but not fully abdicate, making Charles Prince Regent whilst she is still alive, then William suddenly attending planning meetings of the Duchy makes sense, and those revenues will be coming to the Cambridges, and the Sussex baby has even less chance of an HRH (and don't tell me for a moment that Meghan will be happy with no title for her sprog) because the Queen will still be Sovereign, not Charles.

And given Meghan's stupidity in insulting the Yorks at Eugenie's wedding, and making her true nature all too clear behind the scenes, William (and I'm sure with Kate's influence) is not likely to be as forthcoming with "supplemental" stipends from the Duchy revenues as his father was.

by Anonymousreply 155October 30, 2018 2:54 PM

^Of course, I should have checked to see if Charles becoming Prince Regent vacates his position as Prince of Wales. I suspect it does, but I could be wrong. At any rate, it's clear something is in the wind - William attending those meetings is a signal that he may have to take over the running of the Duchy sooner rather than later, Kate is now wearing the family order as well as that spectacular pearl and diamond necklace that was a wedding gift to the Queen Mum from George V and Queen Mary upon her wedding to Prince Albert, and Kate has been looking extremely secure and confident and happy lately.

Yeah, I do admit that Kate getting the family order so suddenly AND sporting some serious, serious bling, which was never the case prior, was definitely a signal/shot of the bow type thing. The Firm communicates in symbols.. That was pretty symbolic.

Harry is dumb, but not so dumb that he doesn't know how his family works. He's seeing this all go down, including the reported splitting of offices, and god knows what else isn't being reported, while he is on the other side of the world, and can't do a fucking thing about it. Not that he could anyway. He's looked like thunder lately. I can only imagine the tantrums being thrown behind the scenes.

Sparkle better hope for twins, be glad if she is indeed finally "free" of that Canadian cow (I guess it doesn't matter which one ghosted the other at this point. Mulroney won this round that's for sure) who made her look like a sartorial retard, get a REAL stylist who knows all things royal when it comes to dressing properly, get a seasoned private secretary who doubles as a drill sergeant, and for the love of god, GET SOME LESSONS IN COMPORTMENT (can't emphasize that one enough). MM needs to study her ass off about how all of this shit works like her life depends on it (it sort of does at this point), and toe the line perfectly from here on out.

She (and Harry) need ALL of the good will they can scrape up if they want to be allowed to sit even at the children's table as it were, royally speaking. William may have a plan B should the monarchy go south. But Harry is shit out of luck. And William out of no-where has suddenly taken what appears to be a vested interest in taking on the role he's resisted for so long.

I’m most fascinated by the women of the family, and how they’re dealing with this interloper. She’d do well to make some allies among the women but I think it’s too late for that. She’s done the unforgivable to Eug, and made enemies of the York sisters and that whole faction.

Maybe she thinks it’s a lost cause to cozy up to any of them because they’ll never truly accept her.

It’s my view, as a woman, that when entering a man’s family, you make nice with the women. They have a lot more power than is obvious. Maybe she’s placated old Betty Windsor, but she’s made enemies of the rest of the women. That seems to be her MO with women. It’s very Angelina Jolie. She doesn’t have real friendships with women; at best she makes convenient alliances (Mulroney). I suppose all courtesans are the same.

It does. And she did. But keep in mind her family are basically arrivistes who made money in the last 30 years or so via a mail order business. They’re wealthy but she has no recent noble or royal roots, or even roots in the country Gentry. You have to go back centuries to find interesting things in her family tree, and you’ll find similar things in Me’s tree if you dig hard enough, or even your own. They say everyone with European roots is descended from Charlemagne for example. But yeah, Kate looks the part and walks the walk. Yet somehow makes it look dull. Sarah Ferguson IS from the country Gentry and nobility, and in her early years definitely had the horsey country look down pat.

She probably discounts Anne because she’s not obviously high status. If Elizabeth weren’t Queen, she wouldn’t waste her energy. I see Kate as being invariably correct and not really worried; her place is secure.

She’s so used to steamrolling in her broad, braying American way that she has no eye for subtlety. And her overconfidence is going to sink her with the women. Especially British ones.

So what’s Meghan’s end game? She’s not going to be married to any king, let’s get real. Unless she masterminds a mass casualty at the palace that leaves Harry the last man standing.

I think she’s going to try to nab a Rupert Murdoch type and try to win an Oscar bankrolled by him. Royal life is a bore and not for hungry gals like MM. It’s a good launching pad, though.

R159 - Actually, Kate got the family Order last December, whilst pregnant, only most of us missed it. Still, it's recent enough and she is looking noticeably happier and more relaxed and confident these day. I'm guessing that with that third baby Kate is done with childbearing, which means that the Queen and Charles don't have to delay moving the chess pieces around whilst William establishes marriage and family. The Cambridges are quite obviously stable. The Queen and Charles are too old to wait until Prince Louis turns five, but at least the pregnancy and childbirth stuff is out of the way, the two older children are already past toddler stage, and it isn't as if Kate won't have plenty of help. It's time to start the next stage of this game.

I agree that Mulroney and Meghan were using each other, and whilst Mulroney made a fool of Meghan sartorially, Meghan would still assert that she got the bigger prize, and she's probably right. It's a lot easier to fire Mulroney when her "style" doesn't fly with buyers and viewers, than it would be to get rid of a recently minted royal Duchess with HRH in front of her name, the Duke's baby in the nursery, etc. Meghan isn't going anywhere any time soon. So she may have had a bit of a rough start, but she's in this for the long haul. She gets nothing out of a fast exit with a baby under one arm and a trunk full of questionable clothes under the other.

The Sussexes have to know - or at least, Harry knows, one can't ever be sure about Sparkle - that once William and Kate step up to the Wales titles and the Duchy revenues, the Sussexes appear even more secondary, yet still expected to work for their privileges (and they are privileged beyond the expectations of about 99.9% of the seven billion who inhabit this planet) and keep the side up. Because, ultimately, the side is theirs, too. If the monarchy falls, Harry and Meghan will be lucky to get out with her jewellery and the kiddies. So they have no choice but to smile politely as the hierarchy that has given so much to them, also diminishes them as time goes on. That's the way the game is played.

Meghan can hug and mug and caress Harry in public and make speeches about feminism - no matter how the fraus on sites like CB whine about how much more fun and hardworking and better with the plebx [fill in the blanks] Harry and Meghan are: unless William is found to be a child molester who boils bunnies for brekkers in front of his kids, and Parliament removes him - the long game goes to the Cambridges.

So there it is. My guess is, Sparkle knows this is the best she's ever going to do, but I'm not sure she understood how much boredom, routine, and secondary status she would have to endure for the perks.

And, yes, Harry doesn't look happy. He got engaged fast to a woman he didn't know that well, married her but six months ago, will be a father in another six months, got sent off on a tour with a gruelling schedule that clearly bored the shit out of him despite the presence of the new Missus, and is going home to see chess pieces in motion long anticipated but over which he has no control and more of the same boring work - probably even more boring to an ex-military man, however well protected.

I said it when they got engaged, I said it when they got married, I'll say it again: Harry made a huge mistake, not in marrying the actress, but in not giving up his place in the line of succession and saying he preferred a private life with his new wife. The family would have given him a handsome annuity, his father is rich and wouldn't have disinherited him. Instead, Harry probably felt that he had no idea how to forge a private life without the wall of family privilege behind him. He should have taken the chance when he could and gotten out, and if Meghan refused to marry him without the royal role, he would have dodged a bullet and found another nice girl.

He's a fool. He's got a lifetime of boredom ahead of him in payment for diminishing status, eclipse by his attention-loving wife, and, probably, further estrangement from his brother.

by Anonymousreply 198October 30, 2018 5:07 PM

Harry wants the status, he wants the privileges, he doesn't want to be a private citizen.

Meghan wants the same thing.

Their problem is that neither of them had a clear idea about what their status would be once married. Meghan must have bombed Harry with her Duchess's fantasies about adoration and grandiose events

"WE GONNA SAVE THE WORLD", that's what she told him. And now they realize they were delusional. There's no glowing future for them but openings of retirement home and agricultural shows.

R198, I agree with your take on it, but I don’t agree with Meghan sticking it out for the long haul. She made a mistake, too, and will be looking for the exit one day. As I see it, she’ll try for a billionaire who will be fine with royal step-kids and will give her a truly free existence where she can wear WHATEVER she wants and not have such an arduous and restrictive life of appearances.

R180 - You know, I didn't even think about that when I saw Kate's blazer, that it was the PoW check. Of course, lots of blazers are done in it, but what if it is a quiet little coded message that HM is actually planning to step aside as Charles turns 70?!

Thanks for the poster upthread clarifying about Prince Regent being able to remain Prince of Wales, I wasn't sure when I put my post up. Of course, if the PoW check on the blazer means anything - "Objects in Mirror Are Closer Than They Appear".

If that's the case (let us say for argument's sake) - and HM would be correct in my view, it's high time to get Charles and William up the ladder instead of years in limbo for both of them - then we have the formerly unthinkable scenario of Charles as Sovereign whilst his mother is still alive. In The Netherlands, Queen Beatrix demoted herself to Princess upon abdication. The Spanish monarchs didn't they are still Majesties.

R200 - Fair point, I agree, William loves his brother and will see him right - within reason; Harry's wife is quite capable of diminishing William's good will, as her effrontery at Yuge's wedding showed. And having to be beholden to his brother's good will might not be comfortable, either.

But it's early days. HM hasn't stepped aside or made Charles Regent; William isn't PoW yet.

All we really know is that William and Kate look refreshed, confident, and happy; Kate is sporting the family Order and serious bling and a PoW check blazer; William is suddenly attending Duchy planning meetings; Harry looks depressed and tired.

Work it out.

We can expect to see more of Kate and William in the next few weeks, as the Sussex tour winds down - the royals have an unwritten rule about not upstaging each other too much with competing major engagements, especially if one or another are on a major tour. So expect more of Kate and William, singly and together, as the Sussexes head back to the UK. Kate and William, you will notice, kept a low profile during the tour, and our now emerging as the tour ends.

And, of course, major celebrations of Charles's 70th are about to unfold (and all that that may imply going forward), with both couples in attendance and in full mufti.

William has been on the Prince of Wales - King track since June 21, 1982, the day he was born.

And Harry has known from the time he was old enough to pay attention to the way the boys were treated differently (not by either parent, I would assume) that William was higher on the food chain.

I've read that when W & H used to visit the Queen Mum, she spent all her time talking to William and ignored Harry altogether. Diana actually had to talk to her about it.

Wasn't there also a story about the boys visiting Buckingham Palace and lunch was only brought in for William, not Harry?

This is not a new story and not just with the Royal Family.

English literature is full of tales about the eldest who inherits the entire dukedom or estate and what happens to the "second son" and how he has to "make his own way".

If Harry had any brains he would have assimilated this fact long ago and made some plans as to how he wanted to spend his life. Make a way for himself.

It seems, however, that he wanted the perks and luxury but none of the work.

And Sparkle didn't do her homework as to exactly what being the kind and level of Prince that Prince Harry was. Given her preposterous choice of that $75,000 evening gown for her engagement photos, she did everything but hire a skywriter to tell everyone exactly what she was about.

Even days and weeks after she began to appear in public after the wedding, most people were willing to believe that her inept and inappropriate choices of wardrobe was because "no one had explained what was expected".

After all this time, however, it is now apparent that, of course, it was explained. Sparkle just didn't give a shit.

Pretty ignorant pair.

And short sighted.

Everything they needed to know has always been easy to see if only they chose to look.

Ignorance is not bliss, is it?

I'm curious as to who leaked the "Pregnancy Demand Contract" story to the DM. They couldn't have made it up without risking legal action, so someone must have given them enough material to make it stick if challenged. The question is - who?

R214 - It hasn't been mentioned until recently; and the Lancaster Duchy's revenues aren't much different from Cornwall's:

"In the financial year ending 31 March 2018, the estate was valued at about £534 million. The NET income of the Duchy is paid to the reigning Sovereign as Duke of Lancaster: it amounts to about £20 million per year. As the Duchy is an inalienable asset of the Crown held in trust for future Sovereigns, the Sovereign is NOT entitled to the portfolio's capital or capital profits. The Duchy of Lancaster is not subject to tax, although the Sovereign has voluntarily paid both income and capital gains tax since 1993. As such, the income received by the Privy Purse, of which income from the Duchy forms a significant part, is taxed once official expenditures have been deducted."

Net income only that is about the same as the Cornwall revenues, subject to tax, separate from the Crown Estate - with a large family to distribute it to. No matter how you slice it, Harry and Meghan will have far more limitations on their spending than William and Kate.

And when William gets Lancaster, and George gets Cornwall, Harry and Meghan and their kids, like the Yorks and Wessexes and Gloucesters and Kents today, are not going to be high up on the list of priorities.

And I'll ask one more time, because none of you promoting this ridiculous theory ever answer it: WHAT DOES SHE HAVE TO GAIN BY FAKING A PREGNANCY?!

Answer: Nothing. But she has everything to gain by producing Harry's honest to God flesh and blood baby. She really isn't one of the family until she does.

I mean, have the technicalities occurred to you? She said she had a scan but the Queen's private OB-GYN man hasn't been consulted? She's going to go into the Lindo Wing one night and the staff there are going to keep her secret, and she's going to leave the next day smiling at the paps with a rental infant? You think the thrice a mother Kate Middleton and William won't notice?

The theory isn't plausible because it works directly against Meghan Markle's own interests. That's why she got in the Club as soon as decently possible after the wedding.

She knows, as apparently you don't, that without that living baby, insignificant will be too weak a word for her as the Cambridges advance and everyone wonders What's Wrong With Meghan.

R234 - Beyonce wasn't being funded by the British taxpayer and the Sovereign Grant.

At this stage, any bump can look diminished in differently tailored clothes. Kate didn't start to look pregnant until she was five months along (the Middleton girls carry superbly).

IVF usually takes multiple trials. The "live birth" success rate for women UNDER 35 is only 40%. The idea that within a couple of months of the wedding MM's first IVF attempt was 100% successful is quite slim. A surrogate carries legal and PR risks that neither Harry nor Meghan would want to risk.

She isn't menopausal; as I keep saying but the idiot conspiracists refuse to hear, women of 37 get pregnant naturally every damned day of the week.

The up and down look of the bump is due to clothes. Every woman carries differently.

The porousness of privacy these days makes a scheme like this absurd. Face it: she got pregnant when she wanted to. Eat it.

Revealing the pregnancy to family at Euge's wedding was the height of poor taste. Hopefully that turned the BRF on Meghan for good.

Again:

I think she was pregnant before (but got rid of the baby in order not to endanger her 'career'), so she got pregnant again rather easily. There was no IVF treatment involved as there simply was no reason for it.

Bumps at this stage of pregnancy still change a lot - that is, if they can be seen in the first place. They change due to bloating, clothing etc, so sometimes the bump is visible and sometimes it's not.

Megs is already getting a lot thicker around the middle and her backside. She's also carrying extra weight in her saddlebags. This pregnancy is not going to be kind to her body. She's shaped like Spongebob Squarepants so the weight doesn't have anywhere to go but her midsection. It won't be like long lean Kate looking trim with just a big belly at 9 months along.

R249 anecdotally, there are three sets of twins in my family - two of my brothers fathered twins and a cousins is mother to twins. This generation is the first occurrence of twins in our family to the best of anyone’s knowledge, all the same generation and all completely natural. Bizarre to us but it can happen.

Oh for the love of Pete. I’m a woman and can appear pregnant at will. Hell, any man can, too. It’s not that hard to let your stomach hang out.

In fact, it’s quite pleasant. It was the single most wonderful thing about being pregnant. You’re allowed to have a belly. At this point, she could suck it in and look normal, but she’s enjoying the attention.

Between Jessica M and Meghan, nobody's dumped anybody. Hell, Meghan and Jessica were wearing identical tie up boots the other day. Jessica M has three kids in the middle of a school year so she did have to get her ass on home. Her GMA job will probably be short-lived - they do short contracts all the time.

Harry. Oh how my heart broke when I read he was engaged. Actually married! My Harry! I thought all of his previous relationships had come to nothing because fate intended us to be together before I got too old. I remember him as a child - those tiny eyes, ski slope nose, slitty mouth - he looked like a little elf! His brother was cuter and looked like he'd be a terrible snob because of his hair (his hair at the time was glorious - tow-headed and floppy), his being the heir, and just something snooty about him. Harry looked as if he'd like you for yourself! He had an accessible potential hunkiness. The kind where only YOU knew he was hunky - a secret kind. The kind who would like someone like me! The kind who didn't care about age differences!

I understood that he didn't like being prince - maybe we could run away to Africa together, or get a little flat in Kensington and hang out at the local pub. Of course his granny would have us for Xmas, and I rather fancied getting to know Camilla. I knew Harry needed someone to understand him. I knew those blondes weren't right for him. And wouldn't it just shut my family's mouth when I brought him home for summer holidays. Diana's son!

Then he got engaged to Meghan Markle! A brilliant actress who made 50k an episode on Suits until the producers realized it wasn't enough and made it 75k, just for being her! A mature woman with long ladder like legs - why both her legs combined almost made the thickness of a single leg! A woman clearly beloved above all other women in England! And she did it so fast!

I felt like I didn't even know Harry. I am still shook. He is not who I thought.

R256, you do realize your brothers weren't the singular deciding factor on twins, and there may be history on the both mothers' sides. Now for Sparkle to suddenly burst forth with twins on first try when the public is familiar with both branches requires stretching the imagination. Possible, yes; likelihood, VERY unlikely. When you apply the principle of simplest solution tends to be the correct one or Occams Razor, HazBean probably went the designer baby route. 1) The Clooneys 2) MerghAgain needs a baby to cement her position in the family 3) Gurl is insanely jealous of the spotlight and twins is a natural and unceasing magnet for generating attention 4) Twins one-ups Kate 5) Accomplishes the requisite two in one swift stroke 6) Guarantees a girl in position to be the favorite for Grandpa... I realize sugars froth at the mouth defending the newly minted duchess as exceptional; but for all the stars to align versus doing what Bean does best, which is manufacture herself in the most favorable light defies basic credibility.

R264 here, I just wanted to emphasize that I loved and love Harry for himself, for his singular qualities, and I know he would have loved me too. My feelings have a true basis. Otherwise, why wouldn't I fantasize about one or maybe ten of the million men out there who are more handsome, more rich, enjoy more freedom, are more glamorous, AND get invited to royal weddings whenever a royal wants a little glitter at the event? Why be jealous of HARRY's wife? Why not be jealous of the wives of more handsome, more rich, more fun, and smarter men? As long as we're jealous of people we don't know (except in our souls).

For Pete's sake, tons of women 35 + trying to get pregnant take a medication called Clomid. It stimulates ovulation and leads to a higher rate of FRATERNAL twins. The rate of fraternal twins in the western world has greatly increased over the past 15 years due to later maternal age and use of Clomid. If twins are IDENTICAL then it is NOT due to medication.

IVF almost always results in FRATERNAL twins, as the process is grueling and expensive and it's too risky to implant just on embryo, due to rate of loss.

R265 - And Harry, of course, didn't give two fucks at finding out his wife was lunatic enough to "go the designer baby route" before they'd even given it six months' worth of a try; his father, his family, his friends, his brother - not a single person got so much as a whiff of this pregnancy coming out of a clinic rather than their bedroom?!

You think Clomid gets dispensed like Halloween candy?! You think there would be absolutely no trail here and the DM's hounds wouldn't have sniffed it out? Five gets you ten they've been on that trail since the day after the wedding and haven't found a thing.

You think Meghan doesn't know that twins would give the game away immediately and not only wouldn't upstage Kate, but would prove that Meghan couldn't do it on her own, she had to have "help"?

She's only 37 for fuck's sake. I can't stand her but let's get real: she's not menopausal and she's still under 40. There is not the slightest proof that she didn't simply catch within a couple of months.

For god's sake, I have one friend who had her first baby at 39 without a single medical intervention, and another who had to take Clomid after a year of fruitless trying - at 31.

You just don't know a thing.

And upstaging Kate is impossible: Kate's fertility is done and documented, and she's on the way up the royal ladder. There's nothing that that famewhore can do to "upstage" Kate - Kate is already someplace that Meghan can't get to - not EVER.

by Anonymousreply 272October 31, 2018 1:59 AM

Rather than regurgitating fallacy, here is the nutshell: For every 20 pregnancies conceived with Clomid, only one will result in twins. Clomid, which is a pill taken by mouth to induce ovulation, causes twin pregnancies between 5 and 8 percent of the time. That's fewer than one in 10 pregnancies. Your odds of conceiving triplets (or more) on Clomid is even lower: less than one percent (less than one in 100 pregnancies.)

Fertility drugs have a reputation for causing multiples in pregnancy though uncorroborated by the evidence. Multiple results are more likely with injectable fertility drugs that are used during intrauterine insemination (IUI) or in-vitro fertilization (IVF) treatments.

To all those wondering how she is faking it (which I don't actually believe because her ass and her face are getting away from her fast) but all she has to do is say: I'm pregnant. Who's going to be able to prove she isn't? And then one day (very soon) when she's got some private time... or on a convenient trip to visit Mama... she 'loses' it. Who's going to be able to prove she didn't?

I think she is pregnant though I cannot figure out, if she is, why she'd go anywhere near Zika territory but she may imagine invisibility amongst her super powers. Poor Harry... he married (the worst of) his mother, and based on the way her broad beam is blooming, he married Thomas Markle's svelte figure. Of course Harry's so stupid he'll probably just settle for 'more to love.'

Kate looks fantastically edgy in that black ensemble. She really must be slim because she looks incredibly tall, and in fact, she's only about 5'8". Good catch about the DM throwing shade in comparing Kate to MM with the blazer outfit. MM can't be Kate - she's too short and hasn't got the budget - but she could model herself on Letizia of Spain who is similarly petite and always looks chic and modern in her pencil skirts, trousers, and sheath dresses.

Looking at the link to the article about Crown Princess Mary .... I think Sparkle chooses clothes that are not simple. Don't look simple.

To me she comes across as someone who thinks that more is better. And that is not necessarily true.

So she shows up in dresses and skirts with odd hemlines and skirts. Jagged edges. Skirts slit up way, way too far. Clothes so tight that her bra is not hinted at, but starkly present.

A truly elegant dresser can wear the simplest of clothes, well tailored, well fitted and a proper style for the occasion and look great.

If you take the same dress, put on added buttons, bows, jagged hems, slits, pom poms, bra flashing, the dress becomes odd, sometimes garish.

More is not necessarily better.

The Royal Panties are quite large and modest for a woman under seventy to be wearing. It all goes to her knowing exactly how sheer the skirt was and how it was going to photograph in the sunlight. You can see the ridge made by the leg elastic at R315; if she thought she was going to be completely covered by the skirt, she probably would have worn a seamless thong that wouldn't create bumps and ridges.

R308 - You can say that again. Holy Mary! I guess she figured she might as well leave them Down Under with something to remember.

The wind blowing Kate's dress up is one thing; Kate's privacy invaded by long lens photogs is one thing; but putting that on deliberately then heading out the door is something else, because there isn't a snowball's she didn't know the whole thing was a lingerie advertisement before stepping outside.

I notice that the white dress she's wearing in the top article of the DM is stretched so tightly over her bump that she looks five months along. In the blue nightie, er, dress, you can see hardly any bump.

Interestingly, the DM has innocently placed a smaller article below the one about Markle rushing to greet the student "she persuaded to stay in school" in the crowd, entitled, "Are you dating a narcissist?". The opening line is: "Narcissists hate people but love attention . . ."

Coincidence? Enquiring minds want to know.

You have to go to Celebitchy and read the fraus there, some of whom are still insisting that it isn't see-through, that it's just the colour of the pleats, but even more comical are others acknowledging it's see-through but calling it a "rookie mistake". Because at 37, after 15 years in show business, poor little Meghan Markle couldn't tell that this dress coming with matching full panties and a sheer pleated skirt wasn't completely transparent outside, and meant to show her legs [sic] and undergarments.

She just can't help herself.

Female here and I can tell what is going on with the skirt. It is a knit (look at the close up picture of the top, it is a closely woven knit) and the black part of the pleats is a looser woven knit to hold the pleats. So the open areas of the blavk knit is larger. From experience there is no way she didn't know this would happen because even without sunlight you can see the flesh through the looser woven knit. They are making lots of sweaters this way, too, where you can see the outline of a bra. But think of it this way- young women are into the nude look so I promise this outfit will sell out. It is a bit more demure than the totally sheer look. This is her merchandising and getting attention at its best. And she can claim she didnt know and play the victim.

R415 - According to the DM right now, she's at £118,000 for clothes just for the tour, which is more than Kate spends in a year. Contrary to my initial assumption that the DM would back off needling Sparkle whilst pregnant, they have instead returned to their shade throwing. They have an article up showing closeups of Sparkle's feet and her bunions, tsk-tsk'g about the "price" of wearing all those stilettos; they have another article up about "Now it's Kate's Time to Shine as Future Queen Consort while Meghan is Princess in Training", and another talking about Kate's family having lost THREE sons in WWII (Real British Girl Whose Family Made Real Sacrifices In The War), and another one up about an etiquette expert who says they were "too touchy feely" on the tour - there's just the faintest suggestion that Meghan was putting it on with a trowel.

So the DM is still after her, whilst praising Kate to the skies, and doing just a bit of leavening with a couple of sweet minor articles on Sparkle and Harry.

Sparkle is turning out to be the perfect foil for Kate, contrary to the smug assertions of the CB Sparkle fraus that Megs was going to "blow Kate out of the water" - she's only making Kate look more regal, more genuine, more British, and more Future Queen Material. And, I'll wager that Kate was shrewd enough to realise that before the rest of us did, and to stick to that persona.

My vote is she's pregnant but is, of course, using a padded bra, butt pads, and standing sway backed because she wanted to pose a la a Madonna all over the south. When we see her in her skinny jeans, tiny blazer and enormous boots and know how much she is actually NOT showing, her maternity coat stunt at Eugenie's wedding is all the more despicable. And then she goes back to wearing clothes that she belts under the boob to make room for her nonexistent baby, wears butt pads, and holds her mons pubis. As someone snarked, by the time this tour is over, the kid will be ready for Eton. She is not four months pregnant; she's not showing. Everybody knows what she did on the tour was just thirsty bitch reality show bullshit.

From Tumblr - this "anon submission" was to a tumblr that likes to do tarot readings of the royal family (hrhrroyaltarot tumblr)

Anon Submission "Hi! So enjoy your readings. Just some background info for you. PH and PW do not have “small"staff. Each person PW PH MM and Kate have staff of their own. PH and MM have at least 5 staff all for them plus some shared staff. This is sufficient. The move will actually reduce the number of staff PH and MM have. The will now use the BP press office which will be shared with Andrew, Anne, Sophie and Edward. They will likely get a secretary and maybe one or two other support staff. They will have less money which means less engagements. They will also now be under PC and relocated to either BP or St James in PC’s offices. So the spacious and convenient set up at KP is now no longer available to them.

Right now PH and PW are free agents with no supervision at KP. PH now will be under PC and answerable to him. So the free agent status is gone. PH and MM are NOT getting their own operation. This suggests they see a need for more supervision of PH and MM.

As I hear it their budget is also being significantly reduced. This is not a “Harry and Meghan get to set up their own operation” move. They are now part of the BP operation for the lesser royals. Make no mistake this is a demotion with less resources. PH should be nervous. He is being marginalized. And he will no longer share in the better structured and organized projects of PW and Kate. PW has always kept Harry from falling down the rabbit hole. PW appears to have given up on that job. I find that sad. "

And here is a piggyback submission to a blog called "Mysteriouslytransparentwitch" " PH and MM are not getting their own office now. They are being located organizationally in the lesser royals (Andy Anne etc) press office at BP. Physically they are likely to now be located in PC's offices at St James. They will have less staff less resources and more supervision. This is clearly a demotion. PH is being marginalized. PW has given up. I'd add everyone knows the staff are tired of MM's style and are happy with the change."

Look I think Meagain Markle is the worst thing to happen to the Royal Family since Wallis Simpson - I actually do - but it's surely a bit soon for staff to be tired of her? She's barely been around. I have no doubt in even only a year she will be roundly and justifiably despised - she plainly does not understand the role or the institution and moreover doesn't care too - but there's nothing but internet carping to substantiate it. Yet. She will fail. She will probably divorce. But it seems to soon for an anonymous blog or Tumblr to be credited with any real insight into how the Meagain and Dimmy problem is being handled.

The sheer skirt and granny panties debacle had two intentions in my opinion. 1 - to invite comparison with Diana's sheer skirt incident and make the public think she's also a young ingenue, who had NO idea! that the skirt was so transparent. And 2 - this is her "trademark error." Just as Kate was besieged by skirts being blown up around her legs in the wind, Bean is the victim of sunlight making her clothing sheer. I believe she would have gone the upskirt route herself but on account of having flamingo pins made the call to go sheer. It also plays into her narrative of the naive yet sexy little Cinderella role she's playing.

The Tumblr stuff might be conjecture at this point but I bet it ends up being true. Harry and Meghan were given a chance to prove themselves and they failed. If she feels so strongly about showing her panties, let her do it cutting a ribbon at a Tesco opening.

For me the clothes were the least of it, although her pretense that she spent over 100k on one tour is flat out disgusting (she didn't, she merched, and the labels are dreaming about the prices they slap on). It was, first of all, the pawing each other. It's fine if it's genuine, but if it were genuine it would have had a natural rhythm and not be so fucking posed and OTT. So the fact that they did it intentionally for narrative and image-promotion is gross. The countries they visited were completely exploited and shortchanged. Next it was her constant "cradling" of her fucking stomach. She would walk along -cradle. Stand for an official photo - cradle. Enter a room - cradle. Fuck her. That is flat out trolling and degraded the job she was doing. She used the entire tour as a personal prop.

Then,

her contemptuous, hesitant, half assed curtsies that were like a kid saying sorry who wasn't really sorry.

Walking ahead of everybody, even hosts and hostesses who outranked her.

The security stunt in the marketplace she was meant to be promoting. Women of color. PEOPLE of color, and THAT is where she decides to feel unsafe from the fucking "crowds" when the entire thing was an uber controlled, planned environment AND when she is playing into a stereotype.

"Let them eat cake." Remember how she bragged that she urged her Suits colleagues to give their leftover "filet mignon" to the poor? Our generous hearted humanitarian INSISTED that leftover crumb cake be distributed to kids. How insulting. How degrading. Fuck her. She is the worst.

If the resources are truly cut back and events will be fewer, she is in trouble. Although she's resourceful and has no problem merching a knuckleful of cheap ass rings at Eugenie's wedding, she needs the events to make bank.

Oddly, in the past two days both Tom and Lorenzo and the Go Fug Yourself Girls have become very critical of Meghan, without the twisting themselves into pretzels they habitually did in order to declare everything Meghan glorious. Tom and Lorenzo have abruptly climbed onto the Cathy Cambridge train and wrote a spirited rebuttal to everyone who criticized Kate's pale satin fishtail dress. "It wasn't about fashion, it was about ROYAL, bitches!" She wore a couple of completely expected and nondescript ensembles to her last two engagements this week and T&L still found things nice to say.

And the Go Fug Yourself site, which could only be described as Markle groupies, suddenly profess themselves to be absolutely mystified by her fashion decisions, and to outright acknowledge that she's doing a quid pro quo with the labels she wears. Considering they have met her, and have been kissing her ass since day one, this is new. They didn't know why she wore two dresses of the same navy color and silhouette in succession - why not wear the same one and be thrifty? What's the point of wearing a different dress in the same color that's exactly the same? And finally decided she was contractually obligated to wear one of the dresses and hadn't managed to fit it in before now, and the only opportunity happened to occur when she'd end up wearing two navy dresses in a row. Now, when labels send a selection of clothing to a customer and the customer makes choices, pays for the choices, and sends the rest back, they are not contractually bound to wear any of that shit that they purchased at any particular time. But if you are merching, you are. The Fug Girls, who cover their ass in this by pretending that merching is practical and makes sense, have outright admitted she's merching.

The thing with narcissists is I don't think they are malicious (unless they are a malignant narcissist) but they absolutely can't stand not to be the center of attention. If Markle is the narc she obviously seems to be, then she didn't go to Eugenie's wedding with malice. She's just utterly self-absorbed and lacking in empathy and respect for others, and the thought of attending an event at that scale and not stealing the thunder made every fibre in her being recoil and rebel. Narcissists also tend to be zero sum, so if you're winning, they must be losing. So you must lose. It seems Markle's thirst for being the center of attention at all times even extends to the charities and organisations she is meant to support. She absolutely can't fucking STAND it, so she made this tour all about her and her padded baby bump and her pawing, stroking and rubbing Harry. This didn't just happen on walkabouts. Walkabouts are hardly working. It happened at the actual engagements and events. Any time she was supposed to actually reciprocate to the other person, she recoiled. At the start of the visit, she and Harry just stared at the hats they were given. Kate and William would have put them on immediately. She couldn't bring herself to pet a koala. The people she was visiting had actually put time and planning into these encounters, so it was like spitting in their face. One compensation - boy did I enjoy the constant side eye, pursed lips and "I'm not saying a WORD." facial expressions that surrounded her at all times, even, at one time, from a waitress.

God help the child if it's a daughter. A girl for a narcissist mom is the worst case scenario. Meg will always consider her "competition," especially for Harry's affections and attention. Haz has already said he;s hoping for a daughter so clingon Meggy will have to secede a good part of his attention to their daughter.

Not to mention if the girl turns out to be pretty (which I doubt, these two's features don't seem like they're create beautiful babies). Angelina Jolie is prime example number one of how a narcissist treats their own daughters. Angie dressed Shiloh in boys' clothes from birth. The ONLY time Shi was ever photographed in a dress was when she was about 10 months old and Angelina was out of town and Brad's parent's gave her a cute white dress with cherries on it that he wore out with Shiloh and was papped. After that, it was all dark colors and boys' clothes. Angie always had Shiloh's hair cut to a boy's length and despite Shi being a naturally beautiful combo of her parents, always wanted to make Shiloh look as male as possible to not take away from "Angelina Jolie is the most beautiful woman in the world" narrative.

Angie even bitched about second bio-daughter Vivienne liking girly things, openly complaining on how uncomfortable it made her that Viv loved pink and wanted princessy dresses. For awhile she let her daughter be feminine but as she's got older Vivienne now has blunt cut short hair and her BROTHERS hand me down clothes. She took away Viv's natural girly instincts while letting her twin Knox be as boyish as he wanted.

Yet she always let Ethiopian born adopted daughter Zahara wear dresses and have her own fashion sense. Because Angie isn't in competition with her.

Not saying Meg will do that to a female sprog, but for narcissistic women they seem to want to sabotage their female spawns to not detract attention away from themselves. Harry wants a girl and Meghan will not take well to having him take his attention off of her to give it to their daughter.

Ok, I'm going and try to be fair ad objective about this Tour. I need your support here.

1. The Invictus Games : clearly we didn't see much of them. They were not a priority for the couple. They were the reason of this Tour and we saw next to nothing, so it's a FAILURE..

2. Fiji and Tonga: what to say? People were happy to see them but I lived in French Polynesia and outside Tahiti nothing ever happen in those places, so of course people were excited to see something happening. We didn't see much of the Isles. FAILURE.

3. The Market Security failure (whatever really happened) was bad, bad, bad. You have two outcomes. First, the staff didn't do his job to secure the place and it's not good. Two, it was a racist overreaction, the savages being dangerous. It also could be a stunt but it smells a bit too much like a conspiracy theory. Anyway, FAILURE.

4. The failure to curtsy the Tonga Queen, was bad. No excuse. Maybe the biggest FAILURE.

5. New Zealand: it's the only place where we have beautiful pictures. I'd like to visit it, so it's a good point for #teamNewZealand. SUCCESS.

6. Australia: besides the banana bread story I remember nothing about the Australian Tour. FAILURE.

7. The fashion: bad, too much navy, too boring, too expensive. NEXT. FAILURE.

8. The PDA: same, too much of it. You're at work, not on honeymoon. FAILURE.

9. Meghan's speech: Meghan is a feminist, Meghan is the Anti-Kate. Well, Meghan can't write a correct speech and Meghan can't speak without notes or her eyes searching for the teleprompter. HALF-FAILURE, she tried but it was not convincing.

Overall, it was too long, poorly prepared because too much happening and we remember shit, and everything was overwhelmed by the PDA and the BUMP CRADLING.

If you compare to William trip in Middle-East: I can remember the cute pic with the Middleton picture in front of the archaeological site, the visit with the Jordanian Prince, the Palestinian children dancing, the beach visit in Tel Aviv and William's speech for Peace.

Even if you don't like William, he did good.

R459 the Middletons have great genes. Kate was back in skinny jeans six weeks after the birth of her children after gaining almost no baby weight. Pippa was photographed out walking her son a week after his birth looking as if she'd never even been pregnant.

Also add that it showed how Megsy is unable to interact with normal people. She always seemed uncomfortable the whole time when greeting the pleebs of the British Empire. The pics of her on the farm in Dubbo, she did walk alongs aside the farmers and never spoke to them or looked them in the eye. In other videos she's sen giving the same response to every person she met....so impersonal, unlike Kate who would engage with fans on her tour with William.

Except for in Auckland when she had it pointed out that one of her former 2015 fan club presidents was there and she ran over to hug her. Then it was revealed the young woman had been hospitalized multiple times due to her mental illness issues which should tell you everything you need to know about Meghanstans.

Nobody really cares when the royals aren't dressed up to the nines, as long as they look appropriate, which isn't hard to achieve. Some basic work clothes, casual clothes and a couple of formal dresses, all of which can be bought in upper end high street shops like Massimo Dutti or Luisa Spagnoli, or even Zara. Shoes from Reiss or anywhere else. The public is increasingly angry over ostentatious spending and signs of luxury and MM took it way, way over the line.

The christening will feature Meagain dressed like it's the Academy Awards while simultaneously trying to discreetly (or not so discreetly) shoo Princess Charlotte out of any photo range. Any major funeral (QE or DofE) we will be treated to a lacey bra slip to prove she is still sexy even though she is a mother now or some such attention grab along with Meagain trying to pat and rub Prince Charles on his back like she does Dimwit but Charles will be dodging her.

R516 don't forget Meg/JM also released a second blind item to Lainey that Meghan had invited Kate to her bridal shower, that was some party with close friends at Kensington Palace and Kate refused to show up. Probably because Kate and Meghan barely knew each other and Kate was 9 months pregnant with two other kids at home but it made it seem like Meghan went out of her way to get Kate there and she totally just blew her off. Made Kate come across like a bitch and Meghan a saint.

R457 if Meghan had a boy kid, she might enjoy his cuteness but narc moms really don't see a cute daughter as a trophy. The Angie comparison is a good one. We even see the similar body type. But for me, the comparison is strongest in how Angie pitches everything towards the cameras no matter what is actually going on. There are pics of Brad looking daggers at her and she reaches up to place her hand on his jaw so it's an "intimate" picture. This happens constantly. Narcissists, iMO, are best to watch on video. Weirdly, they are more concerned about two dimensional images - maybe because they're fairly 2d themselves. On video you can see them turn themselves "on" and "off" and "on" and "off" for the still camera, OR if the video is directly at them. But even when they are still being filmed or video'd, if they're not at the center of attention they go flat and drop the mask. It's bizarre because we can SEE them but they seem to think we can't. Someone who watched a lot of Harry/Markle video noted there are very few micro expressions and transitional expressions - transitions are where we process, or our faces are following our thoughts. It's just "on" "off' "on". They are absolutely visible and it's plain to see what they're doing, but there's a specific 2D image they want to convey, and honestly what they do takes so much nerve and gall I think it intimidates a lot of people. But complicated, it isn't.

R517 I don't think any of the stories Meg tells about Kate actually happened, from the bridal shower (Meg would know better than to invite her) to the "I need a ride" story. Hilariously enough there is a story in the Enquirer that seems Meg-sourced, that Kate in the grip of severe post-partum depression just as she was with the other two (huh), that William has to urge her to get out of bed, and she's constantly teary and miserable. Meanwhile anyone with eyes can see her showing up to her engagements looking like she's feeling better than she's felt in years, and you know that has to be pretty good because I have a feeling she usually feels pretty damn ok.

Kate, IMO, actually is special. Not fangurl type special, but as a physical specimen, she's extremely tall, with gorgeous hair and a beautiful face, and that face is also "adorable" (the dimples, the smile, the cheeks). Then she is not arrogant or competitive. I think because she doesn't carry herself as if she thinks she's hot shit, those "fans" who hate her think they can convince others that Kate is "basic". They are idiots. I also think her family is impressive. When William visited Jordan and Kate's teachers in Jordan were interviewed, the nice and athletic little girl stories didn't impress as much as the info that her parents were always, always on time to pick her up. Considerate, IOW, and responsible.

I also remember in one of the numerous articles on Cressida Bonas when she was dating Harry, that while Cressida was a bit immature to be a true pal of Kate's, Cressida really liked Carole Middleton.

by Anonymousreply 520November 2, 2018 12:36 AM

I like to imagine the conversations Kate and William have about all this. Kate is a great wife and future queen, but nobody William has dated or was even rumored to have dated would have done a bad job if the relationship had gone the distance. They're all well-educated, seemingly sensible, positive-spirited and socially adept. None try to do the "It's aristocratic, but also SEXY" bullshit. Then his brother drags this home. For years the BRF may have been lulled into a sense of security because it was so obvious they all loved Chelsey Davy. Kate and Chelsey hanging out at polo and at Autumn and Peter Phillip's wedding, William joking with Chelsey at another wedding (even after she and Harry split), Prince Charles greeting Chelsey with a kiss on the cheek. So it didn't work - Cressida wasn't so bad. But in the end, they both didn't want him. And after Cressida split, I guess it became clear to the family that Harry had some problems preventing him from closing the deal with "qualified" women (qualified in their personal qualities and character). Meghan Markle is like a shame upon the family, because after all the years of sanitizing Harry and creating the Charming Lad who is also warm and kind narratives for him; turns out he's a dick. And a dimwit. And greedy. And resentful and whiny.

It's all about access and proximity. She worked her hind end off getting enough access to get into Wimbledon, even if it's just as part of a promotion bunch of people repping a label. She takes it from there. Her big get was Mulroney. She would be nothing without Mulroney.

Watching Cressida.

It's odd, isn't it? This is Wimbledon 2016. Sixteen months later Buckaroo here and Dimwit got engaged. After stumbling over the length of time they've been together, they settled on sixteen months. So when Meghan was box-hopping at Wimbledon, supposedly she and Harry were an item. So why did she have to gall her way in, and why were the other occupants of the box, some of whom most assuredly were acquainted with Harry, unfamiliar with her, think she's an interloper. And just imagine that when she runs into them now at the occasional wedding or unavoidable event, they all know her origin story.

That would be unbearable to me, that my friends and family were mocking my spouse - and FOR GOOD REASON.

R541, I find all of her supposed husbands and live-ins, including Harry, unattractive. Yet if she did yacht her way around, they are the best of the lot. After all, rumor is she slept with Bret Rattner. I don't believe she slept with Harvey Weinstein because how the hell would he know who she was and why would he care? There's no way she got on his radar. He was too busy assaulting the powerless - staff and actresses. But anyway, while you may end up married to a dimwit inbred prince, what a life.

She's simple. She's wired for narcissism, and they are powerful because they are lowest common denominator. And I think their easiest and most common targets are the self-absorbed - oh this person who presents as fabulous has fallen instantly and overwhelmingly in love with me, having perceived my own fabulousness! Normal people with healthy egos would find their MO OTT. So Meghan isn't complex. She's very driven - relentlessly - but still does shit half assed. I mean literally doesn't tie her shoes, clean her heels, brush her hair, iron her dress, blend her make-up, etc. Narcissists are also notable for never enjoying what they've got. They only enjoy the getting. So it's a pretty Sisyphean existence, and on a basic level, they are pretty much the main sufferers from the "I'm a fraud" syndrome who actually are frauds and know it.

This is a long read, but on point! It was found by one of our members on Quora. Take a gander🤔 “This is my opinion, and given that I do not claim it to be fact, I would really appreciate it if I was not hit with a series of abusive messages in support of Meghan Markle.

I do not believe that Meghan Markle is genuine person, and I think that the British people sense that. It is not the case (as some people claim below) that Meghan is well liked in the United Kingdom, and I believe that this marriage is ultimately going to end in disaster.

Although I am not permitted by the board that governs my profession (I am a psychiatrist) to draw conclusions about people who are not my patients, and who I have not been seeing for a period of time, I am permitted to offer an opinion. This is so long as the opinion is not made in the context of my work. So, what I am about to write is my personal opinion, and is in no way meant to be a professional diagnosis of Meghan Markle. I would never diagnose anyone who was not my patient, and even then, they would have to have been my patient for some time.

My opinion is that Meghan Markle suffers from a Narcissistic Personality Disorder, with a number of Borderline traits. This does not make her a bad person, but it does mean that something very early on in her life, made her feel that she was insignificant unless she is the center of attention. From the very start, Meghan enabled a grossly inflated view of who she is to be spattered all over the media.

One of many examples was the notion that she is highly educated. It is true that Meghan attention Northwestern University, which is a highly respected US university. However, Meghan possesses a bachelor degree, and the fact that she majored in international relations and theater studies makes no difference. Yes, she must be intelligent to have made it into this university, but she is an undergraduate. Her degree is no doubt an achievement, but she is nowhere near as educated as Kate Middleton, who possesses a postgraduate masters degree from an equally respected UK university.

by Anonymousreply 550November 2, 2018 6:07 AM

Meghan’s uncle helped her to gain an entry level job in what could have ultimately become a career as an ambassador, but Meghan failed the entry test. There’s no shame in that, because it is an exceptionally difficult test and a vast number of highly intelligent people fail this test every year. However, what is unusual is that she never refers to Kate’s education when the four of them (Harry, William, Kate and herself) are being interviewed. Nor did she invite this uncle (who must have pulled an enormous number of strings to get Meghan this job) to her wedding. The lack of acknowledgement of others is typical in people who suffer from a Narcissistic Personality Disorder.

I understand that Thomas Markle senior has made a number of mistakes. He should not have sold photos of himself to the press, but he did apologize. He is clearly an articulate, intelligent and gentle man; at least this is my summation of him from the interviews I have watched. He was an Emmy award winning lighting designer, which means he must have been exceptionally talented. However, like many previously successful people, he has fallen upon hard times and declared himself bankrupt. Whatever the truth about his health is, it is not difficult to see that he is in bad health. He lives in Mexico, in what has been described as less than desirable surroundings.

If Thomas Markle senior had abused Meghan Markle as a child- either emotionally, verbally and especially sexually (because these are the wounds that are impossible to heal), I would understand Meghan’s current reaction (or non-reaction) to her father. But it is fairly clear that far from being abusive, Thomas was an adoring, supportive and gentle father. Meghan mentions him as her major support in life in a number of speeches she made prior to knowing Harry. In particular, she spoke about her wonderful father in her feminist address to the UN.

Given all of the above, I believe that only a person with an antisocial personality disorder, or a narcissistic personality disorder could exist as a Duchess with the now extraordinary access she has to money, and simultaneous know that their own, ever-loving father was living a lifestyle that is a few runs up from poverty. Meghan does not have an antisocial personality disorder (previously and popular referred to as a psychopath or sociopath). These people lack any empathy for others and derive pleasure from inflicting pain on people - pain that they find amusing and tantalizing. A person with a narcissistic personality disorder does not enjoy inflicting pain on others, and therefore rarely (if ever) commits crimes of violence. That is, unless they have a large number of antisocial personality traits.

However, it is true that people with Narcissistic Personality Disorders do not experience empathy for others in the same way that most of the population does. They don’t intend to inflict emotional pain on others, but if they discover that they have, they don’t really care. That’s the major difference.

Meghan does not want to hurt her father. However, I think people are missing are the reasons that Meghan has cut her father out of her life. Sure, she’s angry that he has spoken to the press, but if she had not cut off all contact with him, he would not have had any need to go to the press. He explained (quite genuinely) that the only reason he spoke to the press was that he literally had no other way of communicating with his daughter.

The real reason that Meghan has cut her father out of her life is because he no longer fits in with the way she identifies herself. If he were in the prime of his life and winning Emmy awards for his lighting, Meghan would accept him into her fold with open arms. However, as a now bankrupt, poor, sick old man, he does not match Meghan’s view of herself, and she sees him as an embarrassment.

by Anonymousreply 551November 2, 2018 6:08 AM

As for her mother, I do think this is the one and only genuine family relationship Meghan has. However, this is also because Doria Raglan does what Meghan wants. At least, this is my opinion. The dominant person in the relationship is Meghan, and like most mothers, Doria adores her child, as is the case with the overwhelming number of mothers. However, I have a hunch that, as a child, Doria found it very difficult to set boundaries for Meghan, who essentially did what she wanted and when she wanted. I am not suggesting that Doria was a bad mother (I don’t believe in the concept of “bad” mothers), but it is terribly difficult to parent a child with a Narcissistic Personality Disorder. The thing that Doria had in her favor, was the fact that Meghan was an extremely ambitious child. She was someone who, right from a very early age, was determined to live a life where she was the center of attention. This made Meghan a disciplined, self-determined child, who, for the most part, stayed out of trouble. Children with this personality disorder either go Meghan’s way (the path of ruthless ambition) or become the center of attention by engaging in illegal and rebellious acts.

If Meghan were genuinely proud of her biracial background, she would have invited at least some of her black relatives to her wedding. She has black nieces and nephews, cousins and aunts and uncles. Where were they? Again, they do not fit in with her current view of herself, and so they were not invited. The same goes for her half brother and sister. Okay, they have done a lot of dubious things, but it is simple protocol to invite one’s half brother and half sister to one’s wedding. It really doesn’t matter how long it’s been since you’ve seen them. They are people who share half of your DNA. Again, if they had committed horrendous crimes against Meghan, I would understand the lack of an invitation. But, all the talk that her half siblings have engaged in with the press come from a deep sense of hurt over the fact that they were not included in the wedding invitations. If Meghan had done what most “normal” people would do, and invited her half brother and sister to her very large wedding, I don’t believe that Thomas Markle junior or Samantha would have spoken to the press in the way that they have.

by Anonymousreply 552November 2, 2018 6:08 AM

I just look at Meghan and see a deeply disturbed personality, who cannot cope with others getting attention or praise. I watched her face in the interview that she did with Harry, William and Kate and there are times when she looks at Kate as if she wants to kill her. She doesn’t want to kill her. It is just simply incredibly painful for Meghan to see someone else getting attention.

So my reasoning is this: The British people sense that there is something not quite right about Meghan, and I think they are right. Yes, she is deeply infatuated with Harry, but only because he is deeply infatuated with her. He is a prince who is all over her - How could she not adore such a person? And, clearly, there is a lot of genuine sexual chemistry between them. However, when this intense period of infatuation wears off (as it does in all relationships), I do not believe that this marriage will be able to become one of true love. I believe that Meghan is going to truly hurt Harry, and that she is going to turn on the royal family. It will take a while, but once she is no longer the flavour of the month, she won’t be able to cope with the next star. No one walks around with a smile on their face all the time. No one who is not pathologically disturbed. Meghan’s smile is hiding a myriad of other feelings- jealousy, greed, the need to always be the center of attention, insecurity etc…

The above is my opinion, and I would love to be wrong. I would love this marriage to last, but I do not believe it will. Diana also had a lot of personality problems, but the major difference is that Diana’s compassion for others was real. People sensed that, which is why there was such an outpouring of grief when she died. I think people are going to sense, more and more as time goes on, that Meghan’s compassion is not genuine, but a means to garner attention and be viewed in a similar way to Diana.”

Meghan really is Trump in such an obvious way. She can fuck up over and over and her latest is always worse than the one before it so that people have become desensitized to her awful behavior.

Wearing a sleeveless black and white dress to church for Steven Powell's annual memorial recognition in church while everyone else wore in chilly early April coats and arriving late was bad. She refused to wear a hat to her solo appearance with Queen Elizabeth despite her majesty's people asking her to do so. Meg wearing that horrid dark dress to Daisy Jenks and Charlie Van Straubenzee's English country wedding where she upstaged the couple by flashing her bra. Wearing a maternity coat to Princess Euge's wedding to get all of the attention when she had no bump. Dropping pregnancy news just before starting their 4 country Southern Pacific Commonwealth Tour, making herself the center of attention for the next two weeks.

All of that seems quaint when it comes to her "security scare" at the Fiji market, letting down fans of color. Not curtsying to the King and Queen of Tonga. Wearing a sundress slit up to her crotch on Fraser Island. Her invisible then huge baby bump that varied for two weeks in mysterious ways. Ignoring the Invictus Games then having the gall to give a speech at the closing ceremony (with no bump and a backless and shoulder baring dress). The constant cradling of her non-existant bump. The staged hug with her mentally ill fan club president in Auckland. Giving out awards to Commonwealth youth while wearing that stupid trench coat. Her $118,000 pound wardrobe for the trip which eclipsed what Kate spends in an ENTIRE YEAR.

She's Trump in every way. Meggy just piles on disgusting error after error so people forget all the ones that came before it.

R523 your snaps and Wimbledon info are getting attention over at Part 20. I don't want to steal your thunder/hard work for your posts here. I am of course giving you credit, but if you want to pop over there and see if I got it right, or if there is anything more than you could add that would be fabulous.

R537 would you be willing to post that charming video of her over there as well? I can probably figure it out, but, again I don't want to come off like I'm stealing other people's work/finds/words. Which is to say, I don't want to be an asshole like our beloved Sparkle.

The Gospel Choir that sang at Harry and Meghan's wedding has a new album. Yeah, make some bucks off this couple. There's the spirit.

I don't know what they're doing here. I do notice that the green dress is too big (wetsuit material) and the other one is a wrinkled, balding slob.

From the "psychiatrist" at Quora:

[quote]I am not suggesting that Doria was a bad mother (I don’t believe in the concept of “bad” mothers), but it is terribly difficult to parent a child with a Narcissistic Personality Disorder.

A real psychiatrist would know that the DSM does not permit giving children any Axis II diagnoses. By definition a child's personality is still in the process of being formed. A child may exhibit characteristics, but would not be given such a diagnosis until the age of 18. For example, a child or teen with anti-social tendencies would be given either an Oppositional Defiant or Conduct Disorder dx. And Jesus, kids and teens process their world from a very limited perspective, usually that of their own ego. Become less self centered is part of the developmental process and growing up. Of course, some are selfish to an extreme. Some may never grow out of it, but most do, especially if the parents encourage the child to take others' perspective.

And don't get me started on not believing in the concept of a "bad" mothers.

Its odd we don’t know where they are ! Are they back in the UK or on leave ? Nobody has seen pics of them landing in the UK or somewhere else . I find that very odd . I think they’re on a vacation somewhere private where they can drink or do drugs . It wouldn’t surprise me at all .

I had already pre-empted this to part 20, but here... My suspicion why we haven't heard a peep on the Hazbeans since they've left NZ is that Chuck and Camilla are currently on their tour in Africa. If there is someone Nutmeg won't try to upstage, it's bonnie prince. She is working him like no one else now that she has that ring on her finger. I have to wonder if Dimwit got his dim from dad and wit from mom so I hedge my bets whether Chuck will give much ear to his courtiers to curb the thirst from the blatant hacktress.

Given that Chuck was almost running to get away from her at Eug’s wedding I’d guess he knows a famewhore when he sees one.

I agree with R585.

If it was W&K on tour we would have tons of pics and leaks, but she respects the ££££££ provider.

Agree with R564. S/he sounds like a pompous twat. Good point though about MM living in a palace while her father lives in relative poverty. Fake to the core, pretending to love others.

by Anonymousreply 588November 2, 2018 4:23 PM

Nutmeg is magnanimously making way for the man whom she is working to elevate the Hazbean profile once he ascends the throne; meanwhile, biding her time until the next chance she gets to deflect attention from some other member in the royal family.

Why IS Charles is so red? He looks like a stroke on legs. It can't just be rosacea.

by Anonymousreply 592November 2, 2018 4:51 PM

Prince Charles has always had the strangest, chubby little sausage hands. When he was younger, I thought his hands were red from too much hand shaking but now I think it's too much drinking and sun damage (his face is red too).

He was always pretty slim until he suddenly wasn't. Overeating and drinking too much.
