Meghan holding bump?

I don't see her all that often to be honest.

How very strange that someone’s subconscious actions and happiness brings such a reaction from you.

Love it that she cuddles the bump ❤️

How come this thread appears twice?!

Why two threads anyway leave the lass alone

Its a protective reflex. Put any pregnant mum on front of a hoard of press (or anything else intimidating) and they'll do the same

Perhaps because I think she is role playing , I guess I doubt her

You don’t think she’s pregnant?

Yes it's natural to touch/hold your bump but is it natural to place one hand above and one below thus holding your clothing tight around your bump as I've seen her doing in a couple of photos. Great as photo for family to look back on in years to come but a little odd for the world's press. Just my opinion.

I cannot see how this matters in the scheme of things. There seems to be a lot of Mehan bashing lately, especially in the Press. It is almost like they are willing the marriage to fail!

NannyJan no of course it doesn't matter in the grand scheme of things, it's just an observation.
I wouldn't class it "Meghan bashing" there is more than enough of that on FB !

Why shouldn't she? As others say, it is a natural thing to do. She is not a young mother, and she must be so happy that she has become pregnant so easily and has had none of the problems of difficulty conceiving that can affect women from her age.

I find the constant fault finding with every person who marries into the Royal Family tiresome. They have all suffered from it, Princess Diana, The Duchesses of York, Cornwall, Cambridge and now Sussex. The Duchess of Sussex has the triple disadvantage of being foreign, an actor and of mixed race, so all the nay sayers, professional and private are having a field day.

Ruthiek I am with you on this one. I just find it mildly irritating, but I suspect we are in the minority.

Leave the poor girl alone. She is probably utterly delighted to be pregnant. Let her enjoy it, be herself and not criticise her all the time. It is no-one else"s business how she conducts herself.

I've noticed it too. I find her very affected.
In photos, the tilt of the head, posing constantly. Maybe she will become more natural soon.
Then again Diana did the same head tilt and I quite liked her.

Where are all these photos of MM holding the bump? I haven't seen any so far.... No, don't tell me.

Well said MOnica. If people don't like MM, don't look at photographs, read articles or focus so much on the young woman. Find something else to focus on.

A photograph is a moment in time.
Who is to say (and does it matter) that Meghan is always seen holding on to her bump?
I would put money on the cameramen waiting for “that” moment.
Anyway DD is at a similar stage of her first pregnancy - I must see whether she does too. And if so, I would not blame her, that feeling of closeness to your unborn baby is magical.

I see pregnant women touching their bump all the time. I remember doing it myself. My girls did as well. It is normal....the same as hugging your baby...connecting with it. It is lovely x

I never see photos of Meghan and am amazed that anyone else does so often as to develop a negative view. But then Gransnetters on another thread seemed to be privy to all sorts of thoughts of the Royal Family.

Never see photos of her, suggest you change your reading material

One way to stop this agony is not to buy the Daily whatever.

Well said M0nica, it grates on me the constant critisism of Megan just as it did at Camilla. So cruel that people feel they should air their remarks and we wonder why Charles, Harry and William get irritated with the press and public at times. I say leave them alone, if you don't like them or get irritated by them focus on the good things you enjoy.

Can't see a problem. I haven't seen many tbh apart from the ones from when she was in Australia, but then I don't buy newspapers or magazines like OK and Hello !
Poor woman is under such scrutiny , she can barely scratch herself without a photo being taken! I'd guess that many of the photos published are from file - the photographers think that as she is newsworthy the shutters are on overtime!
