The Sussexes & Hypocrisy

Anja ilovecheese. You never , ever criticise?

I think that Harry has his heart in the right place - I'm thinking of his obvious delight at meeting Daphne Dunne again, the elderly Australian woman he first met many years ago in the crowd, and understand he kept in touch with her right up until her death a week ago.

Spot on Anja

Think I’ll stay for a week.

If they put themselves out there, acting in the way they are(privileged, entitled, pampered,and on Instagram!) the they are setting themselves up for comments and opinions from people who dislike their actions and are disappointed in what should be a dignified royal couple.
If they provoke strong feelings it is because they choose to act in a certain way...of course we respond , and of course a lot of us are very unhappy ....it's not jealousy of vindictiveness...its deep disappointment, particularly at their hypocritical actions.

She had to get use to marriage ? This is her second , and this couple are in their late 30’s not teenagers , as for refurbishing their new house, what a strain ?

Harry seemed at one point to be quite good person, but now!
He has been sucked into a celebrity cult and has forgotten his role as a dignified representative of our country.
He appears to be no more than a jet setter and married playboy.
As for Megan, God help us...preaching women's rights...who on earth does she think she is
I think their actions are obscene and totally hypocritical.

Marylou vigdis and others who deplore such nastiness, jealousy and sheer vindictiveness...some of these comments remind me of the old hags who used to sit knitting, and watching Madame La Guillotine do her job.

Just ignore it. There are people 'out there' who get excited about conspiracies to conceal from us that the world is really flat, not round.

... "minor members" they may be, but there is sufficient interest for the tabloids (one in particular) to scrape the barrel and dig out any tidbits to offer up to a (seemingly) ravenous readership who just can't get enough of the Wills-Kate-Harry-Meghan soap.
Bread and circuses...

What a lot of fuss about 2 light weight minor members of the Royal family, who act and are, merely, 'celebrities' photogenic, but not of much importance.

Well said Marylou1977

The spiteful comments on here are like the mean and nasty observations made by the DM readership.
Boy, have people got it in for this woman... and for Harry for having married her!
I suspect a lot of the tittle-tattle about the couple is embelished in order to keep the malice boiling - which of course promotes the paper ... probably the whole point of the exercise.
And I don't even care for Royalty! Just sad to see what a mean and spiteful country we appear to be these days.

Wow! Such nastiness! They haven’t even been married a year yet and have had many changes under world scrutiny. I wonder how many of us could hold up to such scrutiny? Marriage is hard under any circumstance. She has to get used to marriage, pregnancy, a culture different from hers, royal dos and don’ts, moving and refurbishing a new home, all under the pressure of the worlds’ eyes. Give them a break!

I agree with you Razzy ,they do take economy flights a lot of the time etc. I don't think Meghan is a shallow person at all Craftycat ...what makes you think that? I personally think she is a stunningly beautiful woman & don't find it in the least weak to hold her newly wed husbands hand on occasion.

I think it was most unwise of him to criticise social media and then to make use of it.

However, Charles in particular is also very good at making pronouncements re other people's behaviour, which he does not apply to his own behaviour. So I suppose it's no surprise that his children follow suit.

Frankly, I think they are all over-privileged and cossetted people who are stuck in some sort of time warp and totally out of touch with the lives of the average person.

"where is your integrity"
Fully intact and functioning.

I think quite a lot of us are showing our integrity. Not sure about Harry and Meghan though. Having strong moral principles cuts both ways and what about honesty?

What is the matter with you people - you dont know these people where is your integrity - it always begins with yourselves -

I would definitely curtsey to the Queen. To other senior royals I might just incline my head a little. I would treat Meghan like anyone else, because to me she is not royal at all.

No one has to curtsey to the Queen. It isn’t a law, just a custom. Nothing would happen if you didn't, so no need to get worked up about it.

The royals cannot be blamed if some choose to curtsy or bow , it certaintly isn’t compulsory

I have nothing against the Royals as individuals - I do however think they could do just as good a job without quite so much extravagant pampering and expense.
What really gets on my nerves is the fawning sycophancy and grovelling that goes on whenever they speak, or laugh, or even manage to produce a baby.
If I met any of them I would flatly refuse to curtsy. I might allow them the honour of shaking my hand.
I think I’d make an exception for the Queen - she’s very old, very respectable, and has never put a foot wrong. I would make her a cuppa and offer her the comfiest chair!

I have no time for any of them and don't see why anyone should bow or curtsy to another human being. They are all a huge waste of taxpayers money. Their security police would be better employed policing our streets and money spent on the while RF could go a long way towards housing, schools, NHS, support services for elderly and disabled etc etc.

Don’t even get me started on her US baby shower...

and why not?

Oh course you do Framilode ?
