I came across this article posted on MN.
It strikes me as very perceptive as Harry yet again drags up his mother’s death at the Invictus Games.
It’s so inappropriate and disrespectful to those thousands of injured servicemen and their relatives that an over-privileged, extremely wealthy individual constantly turns the subject to himself.

And as far as I know, he didn't mention his mother either!

My subtle comment about Meghan meant to suggest that Harry looked far more relaxed without her around, and that he looked far more comfortable in a smart suit! Harry certainly enjoys being amongst all children, maybe Meghan less so.

Why would you anslyse someone at a concert?

Because it is H & M's mission to be "seen".

He gets slated if he mentions his mother. That was mentioned on the link in the OP.

^If they are challenged they will try and get the person off the thread.^
I don't think that is necessarily true WellsRose. The whole M & H topic isn't really important enough to want a poster removed. Arguing the points to correct mistruths is fine.
By the way, Harry looked far happier at the Wellchild awards last night than he did at the Beyoncé concert, and he looked far better dressed!! (Meghan was absent).

I think WellChild is an amazing charity and he's probably very proud. I'm not sure what Meghan has to do with that.

I'm sorry but a couple of posters who have been questioning my posting history which i think is something I probably should have reported.

You’ve certainly demonstrated a pile on WR.
A pile on is when you join a group of people to criticize someone so i haven't done I?

Only everyone who disagrees with you.

Sorry I'm not really understanding. Can you clarify?

Ok then..

This thread was not, set up to "berate Harry and Meghan and say vile things about them".
That is my opinion.
🤷‍♀️

Maybe you did read it that way WellsRose (and maybe, reading it again) it isn't favorable to Harry - but nevertheless I took it as an invitation to read something I'd not normally bother with - and then comment on it.

I still think you were wrong to say "this whole thread was to berate Harry and Meghan and say vile things about them" - as I still don't believe that was the case.

If I'd thought that I'd not have bothered reading it.

I'm not wrong. I have a different opinion. I've seen a discussion on this forum which isn't a lot of the same people who throw some really nasty insults at the Sussexes. If they are challenged they will try and get the person off the thread. Its happened to me, questions and comments about my posting history.

If we don't get peeved with three year olds how on earth will they learn how to behave

🤣🤣🤣

Jessica Mulroney’s pageboy sons who earned all the smiles are also in Siberia with their cast off mother.

Meghan certainly has a way with kids but then they must know how to behave! 😂

I think you are wrong wellsrose when you say that this whole thread was to berate Harry and Meghan and say vile things about them.

I think this thread was about an opinion piece. The article was linked at the start. It made me think about something I'd not really noticed before.

Just saying.

If the OP had been neutral, I could agree but it went straight into attack and was clearly was an invitation for yet another pile on.

She certainly has full support from republicans

NotSpaghetti Thu 07-Sept-23 21:29:28

...what's all this about a dress?

Peeved with a three year , says much about the woman

^As for Meghan looking at Charlotte . She's got a veil on but I'm not seeing hate. Her smile slipped but she had just had.a row about Charlotte's dress so she was may have been peeved. She is human being after all.^.

Ah yes, this self assured actress was still so peeved about a disagreement over a dress she couldn’t hide her displeasure when engaging with a three year old little girl.

She is human after all. 🤔

It was her wedding day. Most people are more stressed and emotional on their wedding day. She stopped smiling for whatever reason and as none of us can read minds. something completely disconnected to Charlotte that stopped her smiling. She might have suddenly been thinking about whether she would have her own daughter. She didn't do a my harm did she?
