Apparently Prince Harry compares his wife Meghan the same as princess diana.
Don’t think she is anything like her, no I don’t know her personally. My own opinion if anyone is compared to princess diana is Catherine/kate.
And anything that Harry and Meghan try to do then Prince William & Catherine can do better.

Their puellaine sense of humour has obliterated everything in it's path.sad

Can you explain puellaine please Bumface ?

Who are you quoting Bumface ?

Himself?

Could be herself, of course.

Was new word to me too Rosiemaw. Couldn't find the exact spelling (found puelline) but I think it means girlish or childish. Bumface?

Yes, I eventually found puelline too , presumably the feminine form of puerile

Moral - when trying to impress with big words, get them right grin

I’m just amazed at a poster with the moniker “bumface* could be so articulate.

And don’t use apostrophes wrongly.

It means childish/female child

How could he/she possibly know that? 🤔

Well said Allsorts.

Agree

nadateturbe Mon 08-Jul-24 15:54:26

I quite like what B face has written. (Don't like the name!)
Anniebach "definitely derogatory" and nothing written about Diana is derogatory?
Really.! (exasperated sigh)

crazyH Mon 08-Jul-24 15:54:46

Yes Allsorts - I agree

Allsorts

The dead can’t defend themselves, you don't know the whole picture. What we do know is Diana lit up a room. People wanted to be with her, she was kind and compassionate. She had lots of problems because of an insecure childhood. To find out she was never loved by the husband she adored must have broken her again. She was publicly betrayed. How would you feel? She died young leaving her two boys.
,

Thank you Allsorts

Anniebach Mon 08-Jul-24 16:17:30

The living can only defend themselves by going to the law, the dead cannot take back their untrue allegations

I rather like this quote as well. I was thinking maybe a quote from Warhammers as there are harpies involved, but I can’t find any such quote so no doubt wrong.

nadateturbe Mon 08-Jul-24 18:48:39

I've looked too *TheatreLover". Couldn't find it.

nadateturbe Mon 08-Jul-24 18:51:16

The living can speak for themselves. The dead can't. In any case Anniebach as a believer I don't judge.

Anniebach Mon 08-Jul-24 19:54:34

I don’t judge, I quote

nadateturbe Mon 08-Jul-24 20:09:09

If you say so Anniebach. "Parading her children ^ doesn't sound non judgemental.

Anniebach Mon 08-Jul-24 20:11:49

It’s fact, you had no problem with a post saying ‘her husband never loved her’ , that was certainly judging

nadateturbe Mon 08-Jul-24 20:37:46

I'm pretty sure Charles said he didn't love her. And I certainly don't judge him in his private life. I'm not a monarchist, as you know, but I felt sorry for him. And Diana.
I don't like people being nasty and judgemental about someone who isn't here to defend themselves. Let him without sin...

Anniebach Mon 08-Jul-24 20:50:34

He did not say that, the press certainly did.

nadateturbe Mon 08-Jul-24 21:03:49

OK, Anniebach, I've said my piece. I get upset with the abuse of Diana. It's just not nice or right. I don't know how people justify it. And some people seem to enjoy it.
I hope they can live with it.

Anniebach Mon 08-Jul-24 21:14:28

You have no problem with denying the truth , fact,she told untruths, some caused much hurt , this is acceptable to you,

Iam64 Mon 08-Jul-24 21:18:41

Everyone involved suffered hurt, including Diana and especially William and Harry
The adults involved caused pain to each other and especially the two boys
