I don’t read the articles but see the headlines, the poor couple must be seriously damaged by the constant attention and criticism they are receiving.

I’m not a fan but enough is enough surely!

Nasty woman, coming here, marrying our Prince when Catherine had a perfectly acceptable sister that we would be glad to call a Duchess. The great British public has standards when it comes to which members of the Royal Family we choose to laud, dont you know. Harry was brought up to know better.
In case my post is open to interpretation, I am taking the pxss.
The negative opinions expressed on H&M threads are beyond my understanding. Poor William and Catherine. They dare not put a foot wrong in case the press and public opinion turns on them too. Even their poor children are photographed pulling faces for public edification.
Set them all free, I say, to lead normal lives.

No more criticism of Andrew please, if you respect the Queen, he is her son, and no more criticism of William and Kate’s
choice of school for their children, if you respect the Queen,
her grandson and great grandchildren.

Andrew lied in a tv interview as did the Sussex’s,

Completely agree, but as I’m sure you’ve realised by now it isn’t going to happen on Gransnet.

They seek constant attention

Andrew (allegedly) had sex with a trafficked girl and paid her $12million to shove off and keep quiet.

M&H said some things in public to upset the monarchists.

Completely comparable. Completely. No difference at all. All must be treated exactly the same. ???‍♀️

Brilliant thread to start! This will get GN back on track hmm

Too right it will!

It’s like a Gransnet Panto crossed with a lovely pair of comfortable slippers.
We all have our roles and know our lines off by heart

Wonder why they didn’t mention the fire to Oprah

Well goodness me a young woman who made her name in the entertainment industry and a young man raised by a family constantly in the public eye continue to do what they have always done and court publicity. Obviously they have to be stopped, especially since their perceptions of what went on in a family ,which is regarded by some with almost holy reverence, cast doubts upon the validity of those beliefs. If they don't stop we may have to re-introduce burning at the stake for heretics, especially those who are obviously witches and have cast a spell on our handsome prince. Then the prince can return happily to the caring family where he belongs.
No idea where the bullying comes in wink

I was not being ironic.

I think ?. I was being sarcastic.

Or trying to be. Maybe I wasn't very good at it. ?

I realise she is. Andrew should have thought of his mother and late father when he bought 17-year-old girls. To put it crudely where were his thoughts and considerations then, certainly not with the poor delusional girl or his parents, more likely at his nethers.

I thought the same, Annie.

I suppose some nuggets have to be saved because Spotify and Netflix will be needing something new to feature on the gaspometer every now and again.

I think the letter to Proctor and Gamble has reached the limit of everyone’s interest now. If it was ever interesting in the first place. ?

volver Fri 26-Aug-22 16:25:48

What fire?

How are Proctor and Gamble involved? Do they get free washing powder?

It really is possible to live your life without knowing all about their lives, really, it is. smile

volver Fri 26-Aug-22 16:26:39

Those questions are rhetorical, BTW. I have no interest whatsoever ???

merlotgran Fri 26-Aug-22 16:27:47

But Meghan wants us to know, volver

It’s how she earns her money so we’re doing her a favour really. ?

volver Fri 26-Aug-22 16:28:37

She's not earning much from me then.

You are being sarcastic Volver and I agree with you. Their morals and behaviour are often worse than what they would call the plebs. I'm glad I'm a pleb for my descent upbringing and I hope the way I brought up my children. '
Why should their disgusting behaviour be forgiven or forgotten because of their privileged status?

I have been quietly optimistic that the M and H threads had run their course.

Why?

Sago should have read the article
........................................
Prince Harry 'slammed the phone down' on Prince William after being confronted with witness statements portraying Meghan Markle as a vicious bully of female staff, a new French documentary claims.

Come on folks, most of the stories in the tabloid press about H&M are MADE UP. That’s my final word on the subject.

Yes they are made up…by Meghan!

Apparently Australian news station said staff at the residence confirmed there was no fire, but a little smoke from a heater that was dealt with quickly.
