Palace Denies Meghan Markle And Prince Harry Banned Neighbors From Approaching Them
“The Duke and Duchess didn’t request this, didn’t know about it, and had nothing to do with the content or guidance offered,” a spokesperson said in a statement obtained Saturday by HELLO! magazine.
The supposed guidelines barred anyone from approaching the couple or striking up a conversation, also stipulating that their dogs were not to be touched. In addition, neighbors were reportedly warned not to ask to see newborn baby Archie.
According to the paper, Buckingham Palace said the demands were the work of one of its “overly protective” officials, though no name is given.

R22, The British Royal Family Gossip threads were begun as a respite from the endless discussions about Meghan on the 'Dangling Tendrils' threads. Many of us just aren't invested in talking about her. I used to post on the 'Dangling Tendrils' threads, but stopped because I got tired of posting the same criticisms: "not tailored, not a British designer, drab colors", etc. It just became redundant. And my criticisms were pretty much based on the (lack) of style. But we were (many times) painted with the same brush, as racists. I actually had high hopes for Meghan (as a fellow American) and was generally positive in my remarks towards her, but her gaffes were too constant to ignore. I don't like her one little bit, now. But I think she's boring, so I don't have much to say about her now. I can't speak for others. I think it would be hard to work up much vitriol towards the other members of the BRF: I think Prince Andrew is being addressed in the Epstein threads (which I don't enter).

They don't seem uncomfortable together to me. Sometimes, in structured appearances with the rest of the family, things seem a bit strained but that's the case with many families.
I predict that in a few years Harry, not the brightest bulb, will figure out that his wife never actually loved him and married him for his title/money/fame. After that happens, he will divorce Markle and marry some suitable English lady he's known all his life, which is what he should have done in the first place.

So he'll ditch Meghan and marry someone else who only wants him for his title? NOBODY is going to marry him for his red hair and double chin, are they? He knows that. He had 15 years to find a suitable English lady and none of them interested him. It's not as if he married young in life. He knew what he wanted and the polite English aristos were not it.
by Anonymous | reply 40 | July 29, 2019 12:56 AM |
No, R40, they were not it for him as a younger man. Shrinks tell us that most marry either their mother or their father in terms of personality type. He married his dramatic mother and will fight to make everything come out all right in that relationship, and fight hard at least for a few years.
When he figures out that she doesn't really love him and never did, he'll divorce her. And of course he'll marry some suitable English lady then. What one wants at 40 is not necessarily what one wanted at 30 or 20 (and Harry's a very young 30-something). He's not his uncle Andrew, he needs a mother figure and he'll find a more suitable one after the first unsuitable wife is sent packing.
It's not as if he's the first person to ever go through this. It's quite common. He's just got a higher public profile.

R36, oof that’s a bad look. Even if Meghan doesn’t (somehow) understand the duty of a visit to Dumbarton, Harry certainly does. I’ll give them the benefit of the doubt that the proposed date isn’t a good one. But I’m sure if they don’t visit within the next six months, there will be rumblings.
During a partial blackout here in NYC, Mayor DiBlasio was campaigning in Iowa. Many people were angry that he was off promoting himself. And it’s true that he himself couldn’t have done anything even if he were here. But he is a figurehead and people look to them during significant times.

"Hater" R86?
This is where perceptual differences come into play. No?
You think it "charming"? So be it.
From this perspective, it comes across as pretentious. At. Best.
Unfortunately, an initial hope in Markle has been replaced by repeated actions (e.g. $$$$ spending, obvious hypocrisy, insolent and rude behaviour/body language and paying deference to "power figures" while denigrating those outside such circles) that "charming" language comes across as insincere ploys. Dreck, really. All for the benefit of one individual: Markle, herself.
As multiple persons have clearly recognised, her prose supports her behaviour. It's all wildly throwing about intentions: charities, feminism, empowerment. People pick up on the fact that she doesn't spend long at her royal charities. Doesn't express the same level of enthusiasm as her personal "celebrity engagements". Not to mention, the lack of personal connection at said royal "duty" events. Have you seen her multiple recorded interactions with crowds? With children? At hospitals?
And her claims of feminism? This coming from a woman long supported by men: Father/lovers/husbands. Laughable to hear her prattle on about feminists as she jumped from one man to the other. We would not be reading a guest-edited Vogue issue on Markles' Own Merits.
It does not seem so far-fetched that one day we will hear an interview with her claiming that "there were four of us in our relationship: Harry, Me, Myself and I". And Me-Gain will then live up to her "charming" reputation.

Quite likely, R113, he has posted on here thousands of times over the past few years. I think Styles and Markle may share PR, as she seems to do with anyone who is a fan. His tactics are the same, control the narrative, try to drive off other posters and derail threads that are not hagiographies. Th e posts are fairly rote, only the names change by thread. Most just block him. Makes for a much more enjoyable read.

The advertisers are likely people who wouldn't piss on her gums if her teeth were on fire before she hit the big time with Dimwit. Her intro has two aims: 1. To passive aggressively diminish those big fashion houses and luxury cosmetic brands for snubbing her when she was hustling back in the States; 2. To appeal to the common folk by showing she knows they can't afford the products advertised within the pages of Vogue, and doesn't want to be "boastful" about the fact that she can.
She's such a cunt. She doesn't have a single altruistic bone in her body.

The non-racist majority of Britain all hate Meghan because she's constantly insulting to everything that is still good about Britain: the cultural traditions of grace, dignity, discretion, humility and service. All of these have disintegrated enough in their own communities, and now to see it disintegrate within the Royal Family too is an unforgivable insult to SO many people, of all classes and colours, across Britain and the Commonwealth.

Why indeed are the BRF letting this woman do whatever she likes? What are the possibilities?
They're misguided enough to have thought it would be GOOD for their image - that she'd take care of their "progressive" arm whilst Kate and William take care of their "traditional" arm.
They've tried to stop her and failed - either their attempts were tepid and more like "suggestions" than demands, and she's blithely ignored them.
The BRF's remaining and harsher options might make them look equally bad, and she knows it and is willing to call their bluff, having as her own club persuading Harry to leave the BRF and strike out on his own as soon as they 've got three years and two kids ahead.
They have an agreement in place that she and Harry get that three years and two kids to build their "brand" and then announce their exit from the family.
Then, there's the last and most likely correct answer: they loathe her and what she's doing but have their heads buried in the sand and figure Meghan's cachet will run out by the time she's fifty, have washed their hands of the Harkles, and just plan to ignore them as far as possible.
The latter, of course, will only last as long as the Queen and Charles run the show. On the off chance that Charles is unexpectedly raptured sooner rather than later, or even more shockingly, before his Mum, and the spectre of King William and Queen Catherine springs up, my bet is that the the Harkles will exit post haste.

From link:
The release of the issue has also brought a few other niggling issues with Meghan’s royal performance to the fore.
Let’s start with how she chooses to use her time. She has been working on this issue since January, then well into her maternity leave and after their birth of wee baby Archie in May. While Meghan’s dexterous ability to multi-task is impressive, let’s also remember that in the first half of this year, the only person who undertook less official royal engagements was 98-year-old Prince Philip who has technically retired from royal life.
We are left with the awkward conclusion that she could find time to give famed photographer Peter Lindberg direction as to how to shoot but not to attend more dull, dutiful events.
(During the very period that Meghan was on maternity leave but working on her Vogue issue, she did not attend the 75th anniversary of D Day commemorations, the Commonwealth Youth Roundtable or the Diana Award National Youth Mentoring Summit, which Harry did.)
For a woman who is clearly highly intelligent and keenly perceptive, over the last few months Meghan has seemed spectacularly obtuse to she (and husband Harry’s) deteriorating public image in the UK.
From the couple accepting $4.3 million in taxpayers’ dosh to renovate their country home Frogmore Cottage, to churlishly refusing to name Archie’s godparents to demanding privacy while sitting in a 12,000-person arena, there is a certain tone deaf quality to the couple’s approach to royal life.
Meghan’s highly selective approach to royal life (“DON’T LOOK AT ME, okay, now look at my Instagram account!”) is starting to grate. While her intentions with her Vogue issue are commendable (yes! Celebrate smart women trying to make this wretched planet circa 2019 better!) the laboured worthiness and the execution here have instead left to her open to even more criticism.
More broadly, this entire episode has belied her questionable understanding of how being a member of a royal family differs from simply being an A-lister (neither of which she was prior to 2017).

R209 - Kate wasn't aiming for a career as a global activist enlightening the world with fire-powered essays, and apart from that she's far too discreet, not to say clever, to lay herself open to the shit Meghan has with her Worship The Woke Royal nonesense.
The only career Kate was aiming was to be Prince William's wife, and for nearly a decade she kept her mouth shut, her legs open for one man, never gave an interview until they were engaged, and by doing so, her career worked out perfectly.
Meghan's bullshit, which is piling up mightily, is turning her into a joke. That's the problem with her ridiculously jejune self-regarding prose: it exists, and it's going to go on existing in cyberspace till Domesday - whilst Kate's poor career that didn't work out sees her crowned Queen Consort of Great Britain eventually.

R218 - "More broadly, this entire episode has belied her questionable understanding of how being a member of a royal family differs from simply being an A-lister (neither of which she was prior to 2017)."
Nobody seems to grasp the truth about Meghan: she gets it: she's rejecting the information and doing what she wants, anyway. She has put two fingers up to the BRF, the British taxpayer, the future King and Queen of Great Britain, and is clearly aiming for a global profile that she can use to make her and her husband as important as William and Kate, and that she can use in case the marriage goes south.
She isn't confused: she knows where her priorities are and she already got what she came for. She no longer has to worry about the survival of the monarchy. Mentally, she's shrugging and saying, Hey, if it goes in 30 years, it goes, I got mine, that's all that matters.
She lacks grace and gratitude; she's self-serving but stunningly unwilling to serve; self-regarding but not self-aware; cunning but not deep, for all her shallow pretentious twaddle.
Fortunately, she's married to the sixth in line; the amount of damage she can do is limited.
Once Charles is on the throne and William and Kate become Prince and Princess of Wales, the world and especially Britain will be sick and tired of the Sussexes' preening virtue-signalling - no one will give a tinker's curse what they think or say or write. All eyes will be on the future of the monarchy: the Cambridge, now the Wales.
And if Charles shuffles off this mortal coil sooner than expected, and the Cambridges step up sooner than expected, the Sussexes will probably pack their bags and leave in a hurry - otherwise, the preening L.A. grifter will find herself having to curtsy to King William and Queen Catherine - something I don't think the erstwhile Suitcase Girl will relish.

You make a lot of excellent points, R220.
The Daily Beast notes that not everyone is a fan, oh dear.
While the unprecedented marketing blitz has been greeted with rapturous public applause by vested interests in the fashion biz, the magazine was privately described as “cringey,” “embarrassing,” and “ill-considered” in private conversations with fashion insiders.
The foundation seems to be a slush fund out of the gate. They are ballsy for sure.

This is so funny. Harry will be more powerful as the monarch's only sibling - why would he wants to head for the Hollywood Hills? I doubt 60 yr old Kate will expect 60 year old Meghan to do any curtseying at all. Will horse faced Princess Anne curtsey to decrepit Camilla? I doubt it.

The more I see of this the more convincedc I am that it is time for the BRF and Parliament to cut the family's "workforce" down, limit the amount of "patronage" they can hand out to their second sons, cousins, brothers and sisters in law, etc., etc., etc., ad nauseam ad infinitum.
It's time to limit the Sovereign Grant and all tax benefits outside the norm to the Sovereign, the Prince of Wales and family, and the next Heir and his family in the direct line of succession. No one gives fuck all about Sophie and the Duchess of Kent and Andrew and Anne showing up. No one can even remember what it is they support from one year to the next unless the papers trumpet it.
Harry and Meghan are making the case for this: it's time to impose limitations on people like these making careers out of their privilege.
Limit the royal's official "team" and any access to government or taxpayer funding, whether for clothes or homes or staff, to those heirs (and their families when their children are not of age) in the direct line of succession and cut the rest loose.
Then Meghan can have all the privacy she wants, and if she chooses to do a bit of work for her title and her free home and her access to her rich husband's and rich father-in-law's money, find.
And if not, that's fine, too.

The Hicks marriage was an interesting one. At age 30, Lady Pamela was an awkward almost-spinster, and David Hicks was broke and living with his mother. He zeroed in on the heiress despite being openly gay, and she was game. Her father Dickie Mountbatten wasn't keen on the match, but he assented since it was better than Pamela not marrying at all. And the marriage did work! Pamela accepted David's boyfriends with equanimity, because, in her words, Hicks was "a good father, very nice to me, runs the house, orders the food, and picks out all my clothes."

Welp Troll, just fuck off with your ridiculous attempts to make out that Harry and Adam are having a gay relationship. This is not Larrie, you imbecile. Meghan and Kate were talking to each other all through the Wimbledon match and there was no drama at the polo. If there's any bad feeling, it's between Harry and William. William is probably fuming that Harry was invited to the billionaires' hangout, Google Camp, instead of him. But William isn't know for being woke at all, so they missed him off the invitation list.

From the DM, linked above. To see the article, go to settings (wheel) and uncheck previews.
In her former life as an actress, yoga-loving Meghan was fond of quoting the Dalai Lama’s injunction: ‘Don’t let the behaviour of others destroy your inner peace.’ Her Vogue issue celebrates ‘the power of breathing and meditation’ and, in January, Prince Harry revealed that he meditates ‘every day’.
It is thought the Archbishop vetoed the Dalai Lama because he isn’t a Christian.
It would also have infuriated China, which has long been angered by Prince Charles’s close friendship with the Tibetan holy man, who has been in exile since an uprising against Chinese rule in 1959.
Alexander Norman, author of The Dalai Lama: An Extraordinary Life, believes that the Lama undoubtedly would have accepted the invitation. ‘The Tibetans like high-profile events,’ he tells me.
A spokesperson for the Archbishop says: ‘As with any wedding, preparations are pastoral and personal. Therefore any details are private.’
The Duchess of Sussex’s office declines to comment.
Royal sources insist the Duchess did not initiate the idea, but that it originated from Clarence House, the home of the Prince of Wales.

R247 - I doubt religion per se had anything to do with it - the political ramifications with China, whose insistence that Tibet is ethically, morally, historically, legally part of China, is blandly accepted by western powers, who need China far more than they need Tibet or its exiled leader. Tibet is the poster illustration of why all the bullshit thrown about re morality and integrity in geopolitics is meaningless.
I doubt the Archbishop would have objected personally to a touch of ecumenism in the sixth in line's wedding; but he probably told Charles or Meghan in no uncertain terms what the government would have to say about sticking two fingers up to China by inviting the Dalai Lama.
And I find it difficult to believe that Charles wouldn't have known this without being told. He's savvy enough by this time to know that inviting the Dalai Lama would have thrown Parliament and Downing Street into fifty fits. Meghan, on the other hand, would likely been oblivious to the political ramifications.
That's assuming the story is true.
R264 - In a word, and it is his wife;s doing - her obvious influence in pushing him to make gestures like the disastrous optics of the Google Camp event is making him look more ridiculous by the day.
I keep wondering what the BRF is doing behind the scenes - the woman is on maternity leave and has managed to create one negative and controversial story after another in a matter of weeks. The VOGUE issue, undoubtedly encouraging her husband to attend the Google Camp party with the rest of the glitterati, the "They do make it hard" comment at the Lion King premiere, the Wimbledon story, the Mystery Godparent Christening bullshit, the We're Only Having Two Kids Unlike My Selfish Bro And His Too Fertile Wife story . . .
It's nearly ceaseless. What are they thinking? What are they saying to each other? Are they really planning to sit on their hands, grimace, tighten their lips, and just let the Harkles keep making the family look either tone-dear or helpless?

Douglas Murray:
"All eras have their hierarchies, just as all eras have their intellectual games. Often the two coincide, so that the people who play the game with skill emerge at the top of the hierarchy, while those who do not find themselves at the bottom. Among the prevailing intellectual games of our own time is the issue of bias, both conscious and unconscious.
This week the game got an unwitting boost thanks to news that Meghan Markle, otherwise known as the Duchess of Sussex, has guest-edited the September edition of Vogue. The contents of the issue are perhaps unsurprising. As well as inevitably celebrating prominent women, such as the teenaged school truant Greta Thunberg, the Duchess has also set out to prove that women don’t need men to give them status. Something she has done by including an interview with her husband, Prince Harry."

"This in itself has drawn a certain amount of comment, and will not have calmed fears some people had that a highly political figure marrying into the nation’s most necessarily non-politically opinionated family might cause problems down the line. The fact that Meghan Markle’s pre-Harry politics might be best described as ‘woke’ is in some ways unimportant – a prominent Donald Trump-supporting Republican marrying into the Royal Family would raise similar concerns, to say the least.
The worry was that Prince Harry’s marriage to Ms Markle would end up tipping him towards her political path, fears that will not have been calmed by his appearance in the high-end fashion magazine. In the royally-guest-edited issue, Prince Harry talks about a number of things, the headline-grabber being his claim that he and his wife would not have more than two children because of its impact on the environment and climate change."

"It isn’t at all clear how many people in developing countries with a population boom look to the House of Windsor for guidance on child-production, but in a way this is at least familiar, soft, Royal-environmental boilerplate. The sort of thing which is allowed to be voiced by non-monarch members of the Royal Family because it is hard to object too strenuously and it causes no serious harm.
It is the Prince’s follow-up comments, however, that dish up the problem, less for his audience than for the Prince himself. Watching Prince Harry beginning to play the game of identifying ‘unconscious bias’ is like gazing at a hapless amateur juggling with loaded pistols; it is enough to make any well-disposed person want to scream “Stop” and seize the guns from his unsuspecting hands."

"The comments appear in a conversation between the Prince and primatologist Dr Jane Goodall, on the subject of what humans can learn from chimpanzees. At one point Dr Goodall says that children do not notice skin colour, to which Harry adds: “But again, just as stigma is handed down from generation to generation, your perspective on the world and on life and on people is something that is taught to you. It’s learned from your family, learned from the older generation, or from advertising, from your environment.” Well perhaps."

"And then Prince Harry goes further: “It’s the same as an unconscious bias. Something which so many people don’t understand. If you go up to someone and say ‘what you’ve just said, or the way that you’ve behaved, is racist’ – they’ll turn around and say, ‘I’m not a racist’. I’m not saying that you’re a racist. I’m just saying that your unconscious bias is proving that, because of the way that you’ve been brought up, the environment you’ve been brought up in, suggests that you have this point of view – unconscious point of view – where naturally you will look at someone in a different way.”
Of course, in some ways this is no more than a statement of the obvious. People acquire things from life as they go through it. We pick up ideas from our families, friends and the world around us (although we also shed as we pick up)."

"Perhaps we all have some ‘unconscious biases’: the interesting thing is which ones become acceptable to recognise (and to politically weaponise) and which do not. It may be, for instance, that Prince Harry suffers from a number of unconscious biases of his own, as may his wife, but then there are some biases that people are happy to highlight and politicise, and others thought best to skip over.
One of the most extreme forms of – generally unconscious – bias that people demonstrate throughout their lives is towards attractive people, and not only in the selection of partners. Study after study shows that good-looking men and women stand a better chance of promotion in their chosen field of work than people who are average-looking or actively unattractive.
by Anonymous | reply 276 | August 2, 2019 1:41 PM |
"For instance, it may be carefully suggested that the editor of September’s issue of Vogue would not be editing September’s edition of Vogue if, rather than the acclaimed beauty she is, she looked rather more like a member of the Addams family. Or indeed an average-looking member of the general public. There may be many reasons why Prince Harry requested Meghan Markle’s hand in marriage, but her looks must have – consciously or otherwise – at least counted in her favour on the way to the altar.
Another form of bias that people express throughout their lives – again, consciously or otherwise – might be an inclination towards someone who is financially or socially secure. I should never want to accuse a Duchess – or any other member of the Royal Family – of any variety of bias. And yet it seems possible that in her search for a husband Ms Markle may have demonstrated some form of bias (unconscious or otherwise) towards thrones and their heirs.

"Did either of these (potential) expressions of unconscious bias affect anyone else? Perhaps not as badly as some expressions of bias towards people because of their race. And yet a large number of perfectly charming women never made it to the Duke’s side, at the altar or anywhere else. And a large number of slightly plain women have still not been invited to edit major fashion magazines, even fashion magazines which have become rather boringly preachy.
But this is simply an inconsistency, and we all live with inconsistencies. The problem with the Prince’s comments is more that they are part of a particular political and intellectual conveyor belt, and that belt goes only in one direction. After ‘unconscious bias’, in this pseudo-intellectual game of our time, comes the whole concept of ‘privilege’ and the earning or un-earning thereof. The privilege discussion decides – once the bias has been worked out – who has the right to speak, where, when and how often. It works out who might have benefited from ‘privilege’ and who might not. It then dictates the hierarchical order in which people may or may not speak and listen. It demotes people with privilege while aspiring to elevate those without.
People may play whatever games they think they need to play in order to achieve or retain the position they desire. I simply say – by way of warning – that though the Sussexs may think that they are playing this one with deftness and aplomb, come the next round – the discussion about unearned privilege – it is possible that Harry of Wales, and his Duchess, may find a snake where they had imagined only to find a ladder."

Hayek has more sex in her thumbnail than Meghan has in her entire body. And whilst Hayek had class, Meghan has none. And whilst Meghan did marry "very well", Hayek married off the charts spectacularly.
Pinault could buy and sell Harry and probably Charles and William, all together, fifty times over.
Calling snagging Pinault marrying "very well" is like calling Cary Grant "reasonably attractive".
Pinault would never have looked twice at Meghan Markle. He isn't that dumb.

R326 - As far as I'm aware, the Sussexes have not been to Balmoral. Of course, they love to do things "privately" so it's possible they were there last summer and they were not photographed. The rumor is that the Queen will have a "quiet word" with Meghan about her behavior on her birthday Sunday, Aug 4. If there are no photos coming and going to church with the Queen, the chances are that the rumors are false. We shall see.
Personally, with all of the mistakes Harry and Meghan are making and the PR nightmare they've become, I can't see any invitation forthcoming. That would only be a sign to encourage them to continue on the same path. I could be wrong.

[quote] Imagine if she’d turned down the invitation then? No doubt she’d have been considered “too snooty even to appear in upmarket Vogue”. Who Does she think she is? The poor girl can’t do anything right.

Comments from CDAN for those who don't want to click on the link:
And where was Sparkles while Handbag Harry was impressing billionaires and sub educated celebrities with his bare footed speech about the environment at Wankstock? Right after he descended his private plane and they all got there by a fleet of Maseratis? Wonder what this public and obvious snub is all about. As if she wouldn't have killed to be there.
Isn't it wonderful when private jet-setting actors and singers, get together to pat themselves on their back about what great people they all are?
I always wanted to know Nick Jonas' and Naomi Campbell's opinions on important matters.. Lainey’s last thing about her was less glowing than usual. It’s also surprising that Tom Sykes of The Daily Beast (a mega fan up till now) is also becoming more critical. The scales are falling from people’s eyes quite quickly. Some of us had her pegged from the beginning.

Hahahahaha karma for Lainey who’s been completely up Sparkles ass!!! 😂😂
If Harry's giving a barefoot speech it's because someone paid millions to see those feet.
Its Lainey. And interesting, I think Mulroney is getting a little cold shoulder as well. Too much attention to all her friends being rumored beards- Amal, Serena, Gayle, Jessica, - people were speculating on the real reason Harry married her. The questions about him and Adam Bidwell as well. I am betting he is The Godfather they wanted to keep secret. Also more attention on Soho house.And what goes on there, It’s all starting to leak and the Palace has probably cautioned her to distance these PR friendship. I think they started the leaking to remind her she doesn’t have all the cards- now that “ the pregnancy” is done, the stories and photos will flow
Mulroney seems to be ghosted also. The beard brigade, Amal, Serena, Gayle, Guess now we know why Cressida said no and Meghan yes One wanted true relationship, not a brother Meghan wanted fame and seems to think she married the heir
Lainey and Celebitchy kiss Markle's a$$. They go on and on about people shaming her and how horrible they are and then in turn they shame and ridicule Kate. They are obsessed with her and I can't figure out why. Celebitchy usually has 3 or 4 articles about her a day. you kind of get the feeling that Markle is writing the articles herself!
@everyone... Lainey is still up Smeg's ass. Defended the Vogue stunt, out in front of Smeg's birthday with this about whatever the Sux2bRoyal account releases, "I can’t imagine it won’t be something that feels fresh compared to what we typically see from the royal family. Which means, of course, that the haters will have something to criticise."
Know your drugs, know your doses.
Aw, Meg still has the feminists at The Atlantic on her side.
You know, the mag funded by Steve Jobs’ widow.
They’re very into radical women who get all their money and status from their husbands.
Jessica Mulroney also appears to be missing in action. Ed Enninful, the editor of Vogue UK, is Meg’s new best buddy until he loses his job, which should be any day now. . Lainey deserves it. Once a good writer and celebrity analyst she devolved into a vindictive, power-mad harridan who goes after anyone who offended her in the slightest way and to promote her oh-so-woke agenda. She should be fired.
Yes - totally agree. Especially about Adam. Noticed he was the only one engaging with Meghan and the baby in the polo pics.
Amal, Serena, Gayle, Oprah are not Markle's friends. These are people who use each other to get something.

They are insufferable, absolutley insufferable. She's brought nothing but bad PR and bad optics to the family since the word got out that Harry was dating her and it was "serious". She started in a year before they were even engaged with the threats to the British press and false claims that her house had been broken into and abuse that was never proved. Then she moved to the Vanity Fair article, virtually announcing the engagement before the BRF did several months later. And the antics since the engagement are a matter of record.
They are absolutely Wallis and David 2.0 only they're getting to stay in the family and collect their paychecks regularly. It's horrifying. I have lost what little shreds of respect I had for the BRF for at least a commitment to seeing that they kept the line between royal duty and celebrity attention seeking. That's gone. They're letting Meghan and Harry make fools of the Queen, Charles, and the Cambridges.
If they can't find the spine to stop them and kick them out, they deserve the mockery she's bringing on their heads.

By CAMILLA LONG THE TIMES 8:43AM AUGUST 4, 2019
It is with a heavy heart and a fully clutched pearl that I must issue yet another dire weather warning. Please can Prince Harry and Meghan stop providing us with this absolute gale of nonstop content? It’s getting ridiculous now — it’s getting unroyal now — that last week alone Meghan announced she was launching a weird clothing line, writing a children’s book about dogs, and had guest-edited the September issue of Vogue, in which she offered advice beyond all kombucha-sniffing parody on “how to pivot from a perspective of frustration . . . to optimism” and “the power of the collective”.
Harry, for his part, travelled to Sicily where he gave a “barefoot” speech at a five-star “Google camp” on climate change. No one knows whether he could actually feel the humming of the guests’ 114 gas-guzzling private jets through the soles of his feet as he did this, but hopefully fellow climate messiahs Naomi Campbell and Leonardo DiCaprio clapped so hard they drowned it all out.
It wasn’t so much the things that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex did - it was the frequency and unrelenting madness with which they did them. Day after day of ludicrous coverage in which Meghan was called “vulgar” and “cheap” and Harry a hypocrite. How often do we hear from Kate and Prince William? Once a fortnight, probably, often less. Why do they need this much attention?
Personally, I didn’t even mind that Meghan did Vogue. Royals have always done Vogue - it’s what they do. In the 1930s and 1940s, you could barely stop them licking Vogue’s star photographer Cecil Beaton. In the 1990s, Diana was hardly off the cover. What’s weird isn’t that Meghan did Vogue, it’s that she did it in such a peculiar, grovelling, faux-humble manner, pretending she didn’t want to appear on the cover for fear of being “boastful” - I think she meant “presumptuous” - while coming across as exactly that (why do one page when you can do 300-plus?).
Instead of doing a cover shoot like predictable old Kate, she’d offered what I’ve come to dread - her opinions. These include her thoughts on the “food-sharing app Olio”; and her belief that a magazine is “like a beautiful meal”. In her editor’s letter, she spoke about her “love of writing”, but it turns out that even in this her opinion isn’t worth the paper it’s written on. A favourite poem is a dreary child’s moo by the novelist Matt Haig. Harry’s interview with the ethologist Jane Goodall descends into an amorphous rant on how “kids are taught to hate”.
The duchess herself writes like Conrad Black in full memoir mode, in great, looping, lardy, turdy sentences that are at once embarrassing in their level of gushing homily ("gracious” Michelle Obama) as well as cringe-worthy in their self-regard and pomposity. “Why would we swim in the shallow end . . . when we could go to the deep end?” she warbled.
continued . . .
by Anonymous | reply 417 | August 5, 2019 1:18 PM |
. . . continued/2
Someone who’s definitely in the deep end is Harry. How did he get here, conducting mad think-ins about fear in Vogue? The interview with Goodall felt more like a therapy session in which he offloaded some of his greatest worries including flooding and earthquakes. “If you don’t think that every day is a learning process,” he said darkly, “then life is going to be tricky for you.”
Where is Harry the soldier, the silent, dutiful hero? Of all the young royals, I always thought he was the one most dedicated to service. He was the only one who actually did the army, the only one, apart from the Queen, I’d class as truly brave. Ten years ago, he would have been nailed on as the next Princess Anne, only charming, visiting charities and hospitals, rather than swanning around and appearing in magazines that extol the virtues of Indonesian breathing retreats (Vogue says breathing is an “essential biological function” that should not be taken “for granted"). He’s gone from Anthony to Cleopatra.
He’s clearly unable to persuade Meghan that there is much enjoyment in being a royal. So far she has appeared at only a few occasions, one of them being her own wedding. Whereas Kate might do five charity visits, followed by one Bafta thing, Meghan’s life is solid parties and premieres. Even her appearance at the The Lion King premiere was less as a royal than as a “friend” of Beyonce. If she were performing a proper public role you could possibly excuse her magazine work, but where are the hours of service put in to justify the use of her position for personal gain? Where is the value in any of this for us - the people who pay her?
Meanwhile, we all have a great laugh, wondering why on earth Harry’s married someone who uses the appalling verb formation “meet with”.

That's because if he leaves it to his daughter, when she marries it goes to a different family and family name, r421. He wants the estate to stay a Spencer Estate. It's called primogeniture and it's been the tradition in the United Kingdom since before William the Conqueror.

If Kitty Spencer were going to be Countess Spencer some day, inheriting Althorp would make sense for her. But she's not, so Louis-the-future-Earl gets the lot.
It's not fair, but until they change the way titles work to wear the oldest child--male or female--always inherits, it makes sense for land & title to go together.
To hear Charles Spencer tell it, the house is a giant white elephant, anyway. Of course, he'd have more disposable income without the 2 ex-wives and 7 children.

I don’t like that striped top in Kate. She is already high waisted, and the top accentuates it. Her arms look like they belong on a man, compared to her tiny torso. And the red and orange colors make her hair seem brassy. She needs a haircut. But even on a bad day, she is a very good looking woman.

The stripes wouldn't be so bad if the top were longer and didn't have the peplum. Honestly, I'm not sure what kind of body type that top WOULD flatter. It's terribly busy and tricky to wear.

Happy Birthday, Bea! I think Kate looks great! Very jaunty and sporty! Don't suggest any way for Meghan to disrupt Will and Kate's event. We all know what happened to Earl Mountbatten. I wouldn't put it past her smarmy, fat ass.

Are we really at the point where we are comparing Meghan to a violent IRA bomber? She's hard to take at times, but that's one hell of a false equivalency.

Kate's top in R482 looks like it's made of 100% acrylic and designed in 1972.

Kate is in a good mood for coming in 7th. Will's team finished in third place.

Sporty Kate just ticks all the right boxes, she looks in her element. Fuck being barefoot moaning and droaning with Katy Cocaine Perry and Orca, or trying to convince sheeple that you know all the answers to all the world's problems when everyone knows you are nothing but a ho.

Kate’s team has been disqualified from the second race at the inaugural King’s Cup, how many races are there? Anyone know?

Sadly, my favorite Cambridge wasn't there. No Baby Louis. I guess he's too much to handle. He may have jumped overboard with excitement. LOL.

"Tusk wins overall and William, whose boat came in fifth in the second race, is joint third overall. Kate was seventh in first race and disqualified in the second (so we think last out of eight). William has the bragging rights in the Cambridge household tonight" . From Twitter R496. Other than that, not a clue, lol

CHarlotte’s hair darkened considerably and her eyes more hooded. She’s looking more like Windsor side of the family than Middleton.
George looks more Middleton and Windsor with blond hair and light brown eyes it seems.

Yosemite Sam has been suspended from Twitter!
[quote]Have you noticed that Meghan Markle’s always-disgruntled half-sister Samantha Markle has been super...quiet lately? After spending upwards of a year tweeting up a storm, she’s gone radio silent—and that appears to be because Twitter has suspended her account @sammy_markle.

I bet Meghan can't wait for her dad and Sam to die and then she could issue a fake heartfelt statement. Then she'll rewrite history and have interviews where she tells her side of the story as the "truth" without any blowback. You know it's coming.

Kate is doing such a good job. It's become so obvious now that Meghan's horrible example throws the entire thing into high relief.
