Just watched a video of Megan Markle, heavily pregnant & about to get ready to give birth, twerking. Thought she was amazing, radiant, bags of energy, especially when she managed to get low down to twerk. Oh then Harry joined in, such fun they were having.

It looks fake to me but DD insists Meghan posted it. I reminded her that when she had pre-eclampsia herself she wasn’t allowed out of bed!

We live in a weird world.

Ahh I thought that post would get the conversation going.
My take, I don’t believe she was pregnant, or carrying that baby. I think both children were born using a surrogate mother.
I think she would have made sure she had a photo opportunity to stand on the Portland Hospital Stairs, like the other Royal wives if she had given birth.
I said to my husband at the time, it’s the strangest pregnancy bump I’ve ever seen, one minute large, next minute almost flat. Very strange indeed

I know it is not original but:
Vulgar, Vulgar, Vulgar.
The front page of the DT is decorated with a photograph of Meghan in a high wind, (my dear, her hair) and apparently attempting to smother her child, that is, covering her face with her hands to protect her from the wicked press and public.
Silly woman.

😂
Some birthday photo wasn’t it?

I don’t know if it was fake or not, the pregnant twerking but why would they put this private moment out for public consumption?And why now, four years later? They really are the ‘odd couple’.

Oreo Thu 05-Jun-25 09:36:25

They have the ‘look at me! I’m shy’ syndrome.

Like many elsewhere I don’t believe she ever gave birth to any baby while married to the idiot. They’re pulling some giant hoax and nobody seems willing to confront the issue legally. Maybe this video will make the royal family do something, who knows. As to loving their children, they use them as props. Many say they are hired child actors. Nothing would surprise me.

eazybee Thu 05-Jun-25 09:37:13

A birthday photo? Oh dear. What image is she aiming for?

Mt61 Thu 05-Jun-25 09:37:39

Did they put it out there? Or was it leaked?

Mt61 Thu 05-Jun-25 09:40:25

Why could they not just live a quiet family life in California. Why does everything have to be such a huge drama.

Assuming it’s real, do they have a library of such clips to release when they’ve not had any publicity for a while?

Esmay

Another exhibition from the couple ,
who want their cake and eat it .
They asked for privacy and respect and then - they release this .

I don’t care either way, but Esmay’s quote about privacy made me laugh. Will the new dictionary definition say that privacy means courting publicity about your child whilst not revealing his/her face?

Jaxjacky your idea may be evidenced frequently.

Who cares?
(Sorry, just had to get that one in. Not directed at you OP).

My thoughts entirely, but then why am I here? Seems anything about this woman is irresistable...

Kalu Thu 05-Jun-25 10:20:51

It was all fake! She used padding according to updated news.
I just wish she would go away.

Lathyrus3 Thu 05-Jun-25 10:20:56

I think it’s called bread crumbing.

And it’s irresistible because nothing adds up. Like a gothic mystery.

eazybee Thu 05-Jun-25 10:33:06

Well, it gives them publicity and keeps them in the public eye, which is what they crave, whilst allowing Harry another dig at his father whom he suspects of delaying his children their passports, or some such rubbish. Didn't read beyond the headlines.
And on a wet Thursday morning, a chance to laugh at them. Again.

I’ve just made a batch of gf breadcrumbs for some veggie burgers.
Mary Berry says nothing about twerking in her recipe. 🤔

I remember a dance in the 70’s called the bump. Presumably this is the updated version of it. Not quite how I remember it 😀

I'd definitely have 'leaked' if I'd attempted to do that when I was heavily pregnant.

Grannynannywanny Thu 05-Jun-25 12:11:35

C’mon everyone, do The Bump…

We want privacy!
When do we want it?!
Never!

I just wish the press would drop them entirely. As was their wish.

Smileless2012 Thu 05-Jun-25 12:56:02

The Southpark episode was spot on wasn't it grin

TerriBull Thu 05-Jun-25 13:08:50

I had pre-eclampsia with baby number 1, I had no idea what that was back then, I'd never heard of it, just as well it can be serious. All I remember, I was monitored quite a bit by my GP at the time....and oh the swollen ankles which meant a distinct lack of gyrating, if I'd had the inclination to do that which fortunately I didn't shock

Boz Thu 05-Jun-25 13:37:20

I wouldn't have put that video out to friends, let alone the world.

More Royle family than Royal family.

Isn't there usually a pole to hang on to, in this kind of scenario?

Shelflife Thu 05-Jun-25 13:46:58

Fake or not this is in such bad taste ! It's revolting.
Why in earth is Harry unable to understand why the Royal family want nothing to do with them!?
A couple in their privileged position should have more sense.

NiceDream Thu 05-Jun-25 13:58:51

It's a little bit cringworthy, most videos like this are but it's also full of happy future parents and joy. Lots of very normal couples do things like this.

This thread though... I just read with utter shock. A confusing mix of anger and conspiracy theories I did not expect at all

Ilovedogs22 Thu 05-Jun-25 14:12:56

I loved the pictures of Harry & Megan dancing in order to help the baby move-along a bit, joyous & lovely.
We dance like twits at our home, twerking doesn't have to be sexy,
it can be daft & silly, just as Megan & Harry's clearly was.
Stop demonising this young family, go and have a twerky dance, it might calm you haters down a little
Anyway I'm off to twerk to a song by Mabel. Byeee 👈👉👆🖕🤘✋
