Harry, Meghan and the Invictus Games

Now the Invictus Games have finished, it was a triumph for M&H who showed what they were capable of, mixing and socialising with the competitors and their families with ease and enjoyment. They have been widely praised in other countries. Coverage here seemed to be patchy. Which seems a bit strange and not right for the competitors. But can anyone doubt that the couple could have been a great asset, and modernised the RF, or that Meghan looks so much happier and more relaxed than when she was subjected to royal protocol?

Well done Callistemon.

I don’t think we know whether the family sent Harry private birthday greetings or not.
That would be because it’s private!

We do know that Meghan has estranged her father and her entire family except her mother. That is a fact that the family have confirmed many times publicly. So we do know that Glorianny.

Well there is film of Thomas Markle, supposedly saying "sorry" for his actions when they were getting married then threatening that if they didn't get in touch he would talk to the press every 30 days. He also admitted releasingthe letter M successfully sued the Mail for publishing. Would you want to get in touch with him?
Her half sister has been exposed as lying.

Megan has been exposed for lying several times

Indeed she has Annie.
Everything I know about Meghan leads me to believe she is a self serving, lying, hypocrite.
My opinion obviously.

The man is an absolute horror! I wouldn't have him in my life, I would absolutely block his access to my children - he's been making bucks off the back of this and appears to be ready for interviews at the drop of a hat.

Having had a stroke doesn't change the fact the man is an absolute horror. I think if you have experience of a difficult, obstructive, manipulative parent your empathy would lie with the daughter in this instance.

Yes indeed Smileless.

I'm more interested in this live

Camilla

Aveline Wed 20-Sep-23 15:00:45

Meanwhile in New York...

Joseann Wed 20-Sep-23 15:20:57

👍 Aveline
But Paris is far more about history in the making ..... King Charles 3 adressing the French Senate.

For me, the best thing is the 20 minute discussion on tv all about the raspberry pâtisserie dessert for Charles! My DGD loves macarons. 😋

I know, the unintended irony of that made me 😂😂😂

If Meghan thought she was the face of Dior, then move over! That rôle has now been taken by Camilla, the wicked stepmother, looking very regal.

I agree Joseann the Queen looked so glamorous, and wearing the late Queen’s sapphire and diamond necklace was a fabulous accessory.

maddyone Thu 21-Sep-23 09:50:50

Camilla looked fabulous last night, very, very, glamorous.

What lies, Nanna8?
I really recommend you read Tina Brown's 'The Palace Papers'. Then perhaps think again.

Don't read it if you're a Meghan fan!

Meghan is depicted as a “ruthless social climber” whose marriage to Harry was undertaken strategically when her acting career began to fizzle out. Her wedding guest list, Brown suggests, was made up in many cases of “strategic besties”: those – such as George and Amal Clooney – who were not part of her “intimate circle but were the friends she most wanted to recruit”.
