After the news about Bea and Edo's wedding venue this morning, I was having a quick scan to see what Harry would managed to newsbomb them with. Well it seems they scurried around a bit and finally got themselves into the evening news. Well done Harry and Meghan, don't get caught napping when you have family to compete with for publicity [roll eyes]

She is to be admired maddy , loyalty to her parents and duty to her country .

Never heard her say she suffered mental anguish after the
kidnapping attempt .

I admire their youth, their vigour, their willingness not to be ordinary. Their passion for each other and their adorable child.

I don't think I've ever admired anyone for being young. We were all young once.

I've looked up the definition of vigour because I couldn't see a relevant connection. Resilient strength is one of the examples hmm Substantial energy is another grin

Willing or not, they will never be 'ordinary' No effort required on their part.

Passion for eachother. Let's hope so.

Adorable child. Yep! I agree with that one.

I agree with you Greymar, that is that Meghan didn’t appear to rush back into her pre baby weight, and she looks lovely now, as she always has done. She is a very attractive woman, but this thread is about whether or not H+M have let Britain down or not. I think they could easily have taken on fewer royal duties and earned their own living in Britain or Canada, as I said before, they could have developed something like the Duchy of Cornwall or akin to Princess Anne’s horse business run from Gatcombe Park. I fail to see anything admirable in either what they’ve done or the appalling way they did it, and I’m surprised that others find it admirable. Those that do must absolutely hate the monarchy and are gloating to see it rejected in this disgraceful manner. There are ways and means to an end, and the way this has been done is appalling.

YesAnnie, Princess Anne is to be admired for her hard working attitude, but the defenders of H+M’s behaviour apparently have not a good word for this lady who gets on with her life without attracting attention to herself and who supports her mother so very well.

Greymar Mon 10-Feb-20 18:09:42

What the hell is wromg with you? Why is the stiff upper lip so admired?
Here's a thing Princess Anne seems Ok and M and H seem OK too.

maddyone Mon 10-Feb-20 18:16:23

That is so rude Greymar, absolutely so rude. Whatever is making you so over reactive?

suziewoozie Mon 10-Feb-20 18:17:06

A new saint - aw bless.

maddyone Mon 10-Feb-20 18:18:21

And you’re equally rude, but then I already knew that. Sad, from older ladies!

suziewoozie Mon 10-Feb-20 18:18:33

What on Earth is so rude in Greys post? Over reaction much - just let go of those pearls.

Greymar Mon 10-Feb-20 18:19:47

Blimey, rude where?

merlotgran Mon 10-Feb-20 18:19:48

Nothing wrong with a stiff upper lip if it gets you through.

I've always admired people who show fortitude.

Greymar Mon 10-Feb-20 18:20:48

I admire people who have the guts to say they are struggling. I admire them immensly.

Anniebach Mon 10-Feb-20 18:21:26

Anne has carried on with her royal duties , does much for
British charities, Harry buggers off to America, sod British
charities , keeps the mansion and sponges of the tax payer .what’s to admire ? His wife hasn’t lost the weight she gained
in pregnancy .

suziewoozie Mon 10-Feb-20 18:22:35

Nothing rude at all Grey just Meghan Haters who can’t bear to be argued with

merlotgran Mon 10-Feb-20 18:23:30

I admire people who have the guts to say they are struggling. I admire them immensly.

So do I but not when they do it for money.

suziewoozie Mon 10-Feb-20 18:24:48

She hasn’t lost the weight she gained - oh oh oh oh oh - and you wonder why I think there’s misogyny aplenty. I’ve no idea if she hadn’t or she hasn’t and you know what I don’t ( delete ASBW) care. Nasty nasty nasty

Anniebach Mon 10-Feb-20 18:27:29

It was Greymar who referred to weight, you are in too much of a rush to snip suzie you are skipping posts ?

merlotgran Mon 10-Feb-20 18:27:43

I think you've misunderstood Annie's post, sw

Greymar Mon 10-Feb-20 18:29:12

looking like a Mum, rounded, larger, real

weight?

Anniebach Mon 10-Feb-20 18:32:40

If one is larger one has put on weight Greymar

Greymar Mon 10-Feb-20 18:33:20

and so what?

merlotgran Mon 10-Feb-20 18:33:58

I'm confused now. confused

Greymar Mon 10-Feb-20 18:35:42

Actually I do admire M for standing on the world stage, with a new born saying " this is me " I'm beaming and beautiful and I don't quite know what I'm doing. It's authenitc.

Anniebach Mon 10-Feb-20 18:35:53

So suzie thinks it’s nasty, nasty, nasty that you said it
