H & M wish list

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/

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

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.

Absolutely Grany but you only have to look at the threads on here to see how easily people swallow everything the press twists. That’s where the anger should be directed.

Don't be so patronising, it does you and your arguments no favours Nezumi65. Plenty of us on here are able to make our own minds up about the behaviour of H&M by reading a variety of sources (which, incidentally, don't include Hello and Twitter).

Exactly SirChenjin and its possible to sympathise without necessarily agreeing with what has happened.

I don’t need newspapers to decide what I think about anyone.

Well clearly there are a lot of people who don’t understand intellectual property law - that’s not being patronising, it’s just fact.

I would be interested to know which sources have been balanced about Meghan that have led to this distaste. So far all I have read that has led to outrage is that she did pregnancy wrong, cradled her bump too much, didn’t wear a hat, wore and off the shoulder dress. When I posed this question previously WHY do people hate her so much? Apparently she was mean to her father. Given her father appears to be happy to sell her to the papers I would think she was just protecting herself.

So where is all this balanced covered and reasoned argument about why she is such a terrible human being?

As my completely-uninterested-in-the-royals DH said this morning ‘the real outrage is why they feel they have to move to Canada to escape the press’.

Oh and of course she had an ugly baby. My guess is turning on Archie was the final straw for them. I still remember that feeling of wanting to protect my baby more than anything else.

Good luck to them.

If there is anything of substance that demonstrates why she is such a despicable human being I’d be interested to read it.

I hope it was no-one on GN who said Archie is an ugly baby, like all babies I think he is a lovely smiley little thing and the photograph of him booted and hatted with his Daddy was gorgeous.
I just wish the whole thing would go away now, let Harry go over to join his family and they can get on with their new lives.
From the speech he made which is widely reported today, he adores his wife and says he has found the love and happiness he has been seeking with her.
Please press, leave them alone, perhaps if they aren’t given the publicity they may or may not be seeking we may find out a little more truth.

I tend to read the BBC and the Scotsman - neither have mentioned the bump or her frocks.

When I posed this question previously WHY do people hate her so much?
Who are 'people'? You got a range of answers, actually.

As my completely-uninterested-in-the-royals DH said this morning ‘the real outrage is why they feel they have to move to Canada to escape the press’

My completely-uninterested-in-the-royals DH said 'the pair of them really are a shame free zone, aren't they'. So we both have DHs who express opinions about H&M - so what?

We all have different reasons for feeling less than charitable towards the pair of them (not just M) - don't lump everyone together and certainly don't put words in our mouths by accusing us all of claiming or inferring or even just thinking on some vague, subconscious level that she is 'despicable'.

Nezumi65

I cannot see your posts contributing anything except s**tstirring.

I have no idea if that much hate was spewed out because i don't read it.
Like most of the GN posters I gain info from various sources and
I can also make up my own mind
I have my own thoughts

you are spreading hatred and discourse with your posts.

In life I have learnt that people think differently! there
is not an agreement that is universal on anyone or anything. So if you trawl the net you will be able to dig up negative stuff....so what. It is not the views of everyone.
fact

I haven’t seen it in here annsixty,- saw it a lot on comments about the sweet Xmas card (apparently photoshopped to ensure the attention was on Meghan and not Harry - what is WRONG with people?)

Of course I am not spreading hate. I have corrected misinformation about registering trademarks (an entirely normal thing to do - why is why William and Kate did it as well) I have asked WHY she is so hated and apart from distancing herself from her ‘pay me and I’ll tell you what you want to hear’ father haven’t been given anything.

If that is ‘hate’ then so be it.

Nezumi65. When did Mr Markle say ‘pay me and i’ll tell you
what you want to hear ‘ ?

Did his daughter’s friends receive payment for disclosing details of the letter to an American magazine ? A letter written to him by his daughter.

Read your sources - the friends did not disclose details of the letter - that is the Mails defence and seems a rather large jump from what actually happened. The friends spoke up in favour of her - something btw the people on here were criticising her for yesterday no-one has said anything nice about her’. She can’t win.

I wonder how much Mr Markle has received to date?

Why are you focusing on MM Nezumi? Most of the posts on here have questioned their joint behaviour.

Well all the haters have got what they wanted, Harry and Megan are going, lost their HRH titles, they are paying back the Frogmore money, and their lovely Grandmother (I'm in control), who put out such a gracious statement, has taken the military duties away from Harry (final sting in the tail). I'm sick of it all.

Harry and Meghan have done exactly the right thing to get away from all the hatred in this country and the constipated Royal Family who thinks only about itself.

I wish them love and all the luck in the world.

Surely the RF has a duty to uphold it's values. The selfishness comes from this now displaced couple who constantly talk about themselves at Charity events. Well rid and they will not thrive. Take away RF glamour and they will be revealed as a very mediocre pair.

It's values! What are those. All through the Royal Family its values leave a lot to be desired, for years and years.

I do agree with those who say he should not have used a charity event, incidentally one of his favourites, to put his own point of view across.
The part I did hear did not mention the charity at all, just him.

Nezumi,

So you know as a fact that Meghan’s friends did not disclose details of the letter do you? And from where did you get that factual, cannot be disputed piece of information?

The Christmas card, I’m not sure why you care what people (?) have said about it, I don’t.

The baby is absolutely adorable, why are you saying people (?) are saying otherwise? And Harry is clearly besotted with him, just as every new daddy is supposed to be. The picture released of them together is gorgeous.

My completely uninterested in the royals husband has expressed - no interest whatsoever in the H+M situation.

People make up their own minds, they don’t need newspapers, or even worse, Twitter to inform them. I watch BBC and SkyNews as my sources of news. I don’t read newspapers. Twitter appears to be the source of much vitriolic bile, judging from what is occasionally reported on the news, but even more so from what other Gransnetters report on a variety of threads.

I wish H+M well, I hope they’ll be happy. I also hope that they don’t trade on their royal connections, though as everyone in the world knows who they are, it seems to me that the royal connection will be a huge factor in whatever work they may get. I don’t like that, and I’m perfectly entitled to say so.

Nezumi, you seem to be a very angry person at the moment. H+M are going to get on with their lives regardless of your opinions. So will the other Gransnetters to whom you have spewed hatred and bile the last day or two.

They carry out official duties in S.A , meet very underprivileged people and talk about themselves.

He attends a charity event for children in Africa suffering
HIV and AIDS and gives a speech about himself.
