I'll go first 😀

I've watched Episode 1 of the Duchess of Sussex's lifestyle show on Netflix (a relaxed half hour over an early lunch) I enjoyed it! It's very beautiful in Montecito where they live, the camera loves her, she's a working wife and mother ... what's not to like?

I'll run for cover now... 😁

Remember the discussion we had on here years ago? 🍆

No, I don't 😁

I thought it might be a specialist zookeeper.

In Japan?

Is Harry in Japan now?

There are chimpanzees in Japan but they're not native.
However, now we've got the picture facility back, I thought you'd like to see these macaques

I’ve just been round to a friend Retread and watched the first two. We thought the first episode was very boring wth the sort of My my and man child act but we laughed and laughed at the second one, mostly because of Mindy Carling.

They were quite hostile to each other, playing top dog, at the beginning but Meghan kept pouring the cocktails and as Mindy got a bit squiffy she got funnier and funnier in her comments. She really played up to the camera.

Go Mindy! We’d watch another episode with her in it and definitely a kind of Mindy Carling at Home thing - like the Osbornes used to be😂

Think the watchability definitely depends on the guests and how they react.

I usually miss it all!
Hope I'm not deleted now! 🤣

The Chief Impact Officer leads on fundraising, social value and impact measurement, evaluation, learning, programmes, and partnerships with a wide variety of stakeholders to successfully affect systems change.

Chief Impact Officer | Starfish Search

I don't know what he does/did, but I recall that the title caused some wry smiles.

If I remember his title, he was created something like Chief Impact Officer in a sort of "job" he had. (Wellbeing?? Or mental health?)
The abbreviation is rude!

Does Harry even have a job?

I don’t think so.

He just seems to be Meghan’s stooge.

Probably helps with the children as well.

Wasn't he created a CHIMPO a while back?

Not sure how many hours a seek he puts in.

What's a CHIMPO?

🙈 😆

With Love Vanessa. uTube Vanessa Feltz, so funny

elevate the Hula Hoops!

Now I might actually watch part 2 if she does one. Humour. So important.

Thanks for that, Anniebach

Just seen her on the news being interviewed by an actress friend of hers. She just appears to he acting all the time. Just cannot take her seriously.

Okay I'll admit to being bored in Episode 2. I'll continue to watch because I like a bit of glamour in my life. Or "wealth porn" as was commented upstream grin

I'm looking forward to a bit of property porn later too when I dream of a new life in the country. smile

Ah yes, CHIMPO. Most amusing to Japanese speakers

wearing Diana’s favourite perfume on her first date with Harry.?

That is seriously spooky stuff😳

Anniebach Thu 06-Mar-25 11:28:43

Megan uses Harry, uses the children, this she did to declare she is not Markle but Sussex, for the children, she suffered to the brink of suicide when in London for Harry, yet was on the red carpet the very same time.

Harry ? I now question if he damaged because of the death of his mother, he harps on and on but only since he marriied
Was he very carefully protected by the palace when single, I think yes, now he is lost, only controlling comes from Megan and for her benefit not his .
He is lost without his birth family and the palace

Watched on fast forward - I do wonder if she does all that cooking herself at home? Probably has a full time chef.
Preferred The Documentary on Martha Stewart (original influencer) Netflix.

Having watched all of it I’m convinced Meghan is such a narcissist she will be blind to Harry’s needs. That’s for the therapist to sort out.

I felt sorry for him in the brief appearance he made at the end.

Avalon yes, Megan is where she wants to be, anAmerican TV celebrity and red carpet,

Oreo yes, a need for attention

What on earth are they going to do if Netflix dump them? Does Harry even have a job?

I’m not their greatest fan but I’m starting to worry about Harry.
