H & M wish list

What a brave man. He’s standing up to the Corporate Monster that is British Journalism. The cancer eating the heart out of our society. He deserves our support and solidarity.

And a voice of reason from the time Meghan was being hounded for doing pregnancy wrong www.theguardian.com/uk-news/shortcuts/2019/feb/03/poison-and-the-papers-why-tabloids-are-obsessed-with-meghan-flaunting-her-bump

Here we go grandmac a few of Kate cradling her bump with both arms. Hope she’s going to get the pitchforks waved in her direction as well (actually I don’t because it’s a complete nonsense) www.hellomagazine.com/healthandbeauty/mother-and-baby/gallery/2019030670524/kate-middleton-touching-baby-bump/1/

I have seen other comparisons of headlines etc on Twitter - that’s a sample. If you can find a single one comparing Kate less favourably than Meghan I’d be interested to see it.

I ventured into the Daily Hate comment section & every article posted while she was pregnant had a bunch of vicious women (unfortunately) commenting on how the bump was fake and she had a surrogate somewhere. I don’t we remember such hateful nonsense for Kate.

I had a look through images at Xmas and Archie was called ugly repeatedly (WTAF?) while the Cambridge kids were ‘cute’.

I think you’d have to work pretty hard to find articles/comments that were rhe other way round.

The Queen was very gracious saying how well Meghan had integrated into the Royal Family, but did Meghan reciprocate? No, she says the Royal Family is toxic and our country is racist. Pots and kettles come to mind!
I can’t help feeling that she is always acting. ( I have never seen any other Mother cradle their bump with both arms as she did) but I hope that they find their happy ever after, and that Harry and little Archie maintain a relationship with other members of the Royal Family.

The link to that Buzzfeed article has been pasted to every thread and M and H on GN. But it doesnt mean it isnt biased in it's reporting. I am sure a reporter could also come up with an article showing the times when the same was said about both Meghan and Catherine. Just like statistics than can be twisted to show whatever the person wants to show.

Apologies- I understood you kneeled to be knighted. Pledged allegiance etc...bowed down before your master....or refused the honour accordingly.

In what way hypocritical? They’re two separate things, surely?

Curtsying is not required, hasn’t been for some years.

I’ve heard lots of pontificating about the bowing and curtsying but not many refuse the honours when awarded them ......hypocrites much?

Me too!

just wondering if anyone of you felt that in this day and age the curtsying and bowing and royal titles are all a bit much

A bit much is putting it mildly - it’s a ridiculous, antiquated tradition that I hope dies out as the monarchy is slimmed down. I would never curtsy to anyone and I imagine many feel the same.

Being an american I understand history and the whole King and Queen thing. But I was just wondering if anyone of you felt that in this day and age the curtsying and bowing and royal titles are all a bit much. It puts one person above another saying one is better than another. Or do you like the tradition? Just curious.

Totally agree with you rachand

He may be happy, he sees her as a new Diana

I also worry what Harry will do for a living, I reckon Megan will be the bread winner and call the shots, living off his name. Shame for Harry

It obvious H & M will be constantly in the press, seems they
will be worldwide celebrities.

Meanwhile William and Kate will continue with their commitment to this country , to our charities.

Given the way the tabloids twist everything staying silent is probably the best way to be supportive.

Summerlove I haven’t been unkind to a public couple. Stop jumping on bandwagons. I’m not the one laughing at other posters and intimating they’re too stupid to understand. You need to actually read what’s posted and don’t confuse my comments with other people’s. Certain posters on here love dishing it out and can’t cope with being challenged. Please spare me the handwringing faux angst.

Has MM’s mum spoken up for her Jaycee? I wasn’t aware she’d given any interviews but rather, was remaining silent. I might have missed something though.

Are her fathers ex wife’s children her fathers children ?

Personally, I'm sad that Harry & Meghan feel that they have to leave the UK for the majority of their time. I preferred them to William & Kate, although I have nothing against them.
I hope it works out for H & M, though I don't think I want to see them appearing in films or adverts, particularly.
I would rather have our Royal Family than a President, even though I am aware that our Royals live a very privileged life. It must also be very restricted in many ways, which Meghan has clearly discovered.

I for one hope they buck the recent trend and stay married. They appear very in love.

SirChenjin I haven't counted the number of people in her family speaking up for her but I know that they include her father's ex wife's children and her own mother. How large is her family? She seems to have plenty of friends, I would certainly like to have half as many, especially for someone who moves around as do others in her circle.
I don't think gleefully hoping they are divorced soon counts as just sharing an opinion as a few on the thread have done, it is just plain nasty.

The Mail has said she leaked the letter as part of its defence - by allowing her friends to talk about her relationship with her father (not quoting directly, sharing the same themes).

As a legal defence this sounds like a bit of a long shot to me, but I guess it will mean that the Mail etc will be able to gleefully rip to pieces every text she or contact she made with her father if those are required as evidence. I guess he knows that & presumably doesn’t care.
