Just been released.

Lots of black and white footage.

Kisses, laughter, tears.

We don’t have Netflix, so shan’t be watching it.

Suits will be wanting her back now she's become a much better actress.

Very good👏👏.

Oprah however was not so skilled when she feigned surprise at the shock revelation that a RF member had asked how brown the baby might be.
We had the same conversation with our daughter and SIL regarding our grandchildren, there was no racist agenda and no one was offended.

@ Domestic violence. That's new.
Not so.

Oh very good.

Harry isn't one of Meghan's in laws, though.

No matter what the topic someone always has to have a nasty little dig at the OP or someone else commenting. If you haven't got anything worthwhile to contribute please keep quiet.
I'll probably have a look at this programme when it comes on next week btw.

Square Go: A Scottish call to fight after alternative means have been exhausted. Basically meaning me and you, let's square up and punch the s* out of each other.

Classy!

Yeah, that's us.

We have a sense of humour too.

No, but he is about the only 'adult^ member of the family apart from her mother she is likely to spend time with.

Chestnut Tue 06-Dec-22 17:31:59

What I find so worrying is the way Meghan has alienated Harry and the children from BOTH their families. She has deliberately chosen to step away and live in isolation from all their relatives except her mother.

Despite having so many Royal cousins the children will never know them or create any memories with them. I just wonder how they will feel about all this when they grow up. I can't see a happy ending 20 years from now.

Oh, interesting!

🤔

Is this true? Who in the family was violent towards Meghan?

Or does this claim do a disservice to all those women who suffer very real domestic violence and abuse?

Chestnut Tue 06-Dec-22 17:57:31

So can Ms Fulani back up that statement and say who committed DV on Meghan and when?

'According to clear definition it seems Meghan is a survivor of DV from her in-laws' is in fact a contradiction. Either it is clear and there is evidence or it is not. You cannot use the words seems in evidence.

Smileless2012 Tue 06-Dec-22 18:16:48

It may well be a disservice to anyone who suffers real domestic violence and abuse Callistemon and let's not forget, that men can be victims too.

But what the hell, if it's something else to try and show the RF in a very bad light and support Meghan's 'victim' status, does it really matter if it's true?

Blossoming Tue 06-Dec-22 19:29:09

A threat to our way of life? Oh, come on! That’s just plain ridiculous.

Hang on, the media has been at pains to point out that H&M are still on good terms with Beatrice and Zara. They have British family, with children, they know and will see. Not in the glare of the media of course, so the obsessed can't police it from afar.

Stop creating this myth of them being totally alone in a tiny little isolated nuclear family unit.

So we await a statement from The Duchess as to which of her in-laws committed DV on her …

Yes, I know, Smileless. Years ago we were shocked to discover that one of our neighbours was physically abused by his wife and sons. His daughter was too, she ran away aged 16.

Apologies to all those who take this topic seriously but I just had to say MissA, Volver and Callistemon you're cracking me up. I still haven't worked out where the labrador came from, maybe because I got distracted by the slobbery, manly men, but also because I read the thread backwards (latest first) so I'll carry on reading.

Callistemon21 Tue 06-Dec-22 20:53:39

The labrador is one that got away from Dogs Behaving Very Badly. 🐕
Graeme took his eye off it for just a couple of seconds

(Actually, I have no idea 😂)

I'm sure they meet up all the time. However, will Beatrice and Zara feel the same after this claptrap series is transmitted? Maybe Beatrice as her father is also alienated, but we'll have to see about Zara.

Calendargirl Wed 07-Dec-22 07:10:04

Not sure if Zara is as pally with H&M, but her DH Mike Tindall didn’t look too matey with either of them at the Queen’s funeral.

Actually isn't it Eugene, not Beatrice, who is the more friendly with H & M and who travels back and forth across the Atlantic to go out to dinner with them and to attend the Superbowl with Harry? Anyway.
It's nice to have good cousins. Most of mine are in NZ but from day one our parents always ensured we were a happy together unit. And still are, as our our own children who visit, and hopefully the next generation too.

Well he might put pooey Sue in touch with H & M for a more luxurious holiday. She was good at bitching!

OMG!! Enough already!

Franbern Wed 07-Dec-22 09:45:32

I have just dipped into this thread as I had about ten minutes to waste
I find it so strange to read of people on GN pontificating on the lifes and relationships of a family they only know via media coverage. They really have no idea what is or is not true.

Looking into other threads on GN (Relationships, etc), read of so many posters here who, sady, have family enstrangements, even with their own AC. Perhaps more work with their own relationships rather than joining in the media frenzy on celebs would benefit all.

eazybee Wed 07-Dec-22 10:02:03

I think we know more of the lives of some celebrities (so much better documented, and with both sides presented) than we do of the anonymous people who pontificate endlessly about their personal relationship problems from what is of necessity a one-sided point of view.

Jaberwok Wed 07-Dec-22 11:03:43

Who is pooey Sue and how was she bitchy?
