Harry and Meghan #49 Are you okay? We want privacy but won’t go away

[freda19]

I've had a few days off, and have watched loads of RF stuff on Netflix. Boy are they gunning for Charles on there....... I found the Diana in her own words really upsetting to listen to, tbh. She had a lot of issues, and blamed Charles for all of it - never once taking responsibility for her own actions or behaviour.

It also seems really clear to me that Harry is obviously OK with all of this - and has the same victim mentality as his mother did. He's stabbing his father in the back whilst said father is paying his bills. Some people have no shame.........

I totally agree. I've been saying for months, maybe even more than a year, that hazza has inherited all Di's bad traits and mental issues and then added more of his own, so now he is waaaaay more dangerous and loopy than Di was. He's utterly selfish. Just wait till he falls out with smeggy, boy will the shit hit the fan. Unfortunately that will be some time away because he has a kid with her (however it came about) and is enjoying the role of Super Daddy, saver of planets and raindrops and apprentice to the wondrous all-knowing smeggy. But he will get restless and when he blows it will be spectacular.
He has Murican tax laws to deal with yet, and he's a fucking mug if he leaves that to smeggy and her tax dodging old ma. In the UK that was never an issue. Daddy and gangan and the fixit fairies sorted out all that tedious stuff so as not to worry his lil ginger head with real life stuff like bills and shit. Now it's up to him and the fun will start when the IRS come calling asking for their whack of his fortune. Bring it on.

Not insensitive at all. When I had my miscarriages I didn’t feel any shame or taboo. I felt a lot of guilt but was already going through fertility treatment so not only was I failing to get pregnant, I was failing to stay pregnant. That was a hugely difficult time and really reflected how I viewed myself. I had two further miscarriages after my two children and I found the loss entirely different - I grieved for the potential family member I had lost but I didn’t internalise it so much as I did prior to having children. I knew exactly what I was missing.
I found that people who knew I was pregnant and would then ask me how things were going only to learn I had lost the pregnancy were often embarrassed at their ‘faux pas’. I was in the main, treated very kindly.
I think the shame and taboo of miscarriages really does come from them being glossed over in the past, glossed over but I’d like to think we are better informed today. And if not, I’ll await further instruction for Meghan

couple things: the article read (as far as I managed to read it before dry heaving) like it was written for a soap opera... like General Hospital (you know, the gig she got through her daddy who won two daytime emmys for his lighting work?). It was absolutely a pr stunt and from my 2 experiences, wildly off the mark. I too felt mind-bending grief, especially for my first one as it was far enough along, like Zara, that it required an op (my OB, remember the lovely guy who spilled his tea on Messy at the Portland? That one. He mercifully gave me a general anaesthetic rather than put me through what Zara had to go through). I lost my job upon my return to the office 4 days later, but I still didn’t tell a soul what had happened. Not out of shame or taboo.... but because it was private. Yep. PRIVATE. This NYT article utterly disgusted and slightly triggered me. She uses everything and everyone for her PR.... even this poor little lost soul (assuming there was one) and the little lost souls of all the others who have experienced this. Nasty woman. About the Northwestern lies, I graduated from NU as well and had a lot of friends who were planning on going into acting. ALL of them... every single one, majored in RTVF (radio, tv film). Every single one. They also did everything they could to be in every stage production (and there were many) that the school presented. She wasn’t even in WaaMu, which is the end of year mega production that everyone in RTVF of any talent is involved in. I was a political science major as that was the only major that came close to the international relations focus. There is no international relations major, minor, specialisation or whatever. I know this because I had to craft my courses to mimic an IR degree that is offered at universities like Princeton and Georgetown.... thinking I wanted to go into the diplomatic Corps as well. The State department and the CIA recruit from there, which offer another means of going into that career path. Her career path was clearly to mooch, grift, use and yacht her way around some sort of identifiable CV. Oh and feminist? Mother? Advocate? Nope. Nope. And uh.... nope

eta this gem from 2001

 

[ResidentMerkin]

It wasn't an article written by a journalist. It was written by MM as self-promotion ordering everyone to pay attention to her and all her "works" and removing any possible channel for criticism by starting the piece with a pity-party for herself. It is utterly outrageous and I still cannot get over it. Still just seething.

Anyone know anything about the National Pulse? It appears to be american news site

He’s gone from prince to markles husband, to snowflake all in one article!

Markle’s Husband Harry Claims COVID Was Punishment From Mother Nature - The National Pulse

Harry Windsor – husband of Meghan Markle and son of Princess Diana and Prince Charles – has claimed the Chinese Communist Party virus was a punishment from “mother nature,” furthering the long-suspected view from the political right that left-wing activists are religious in their climate change...

thenationalpulse.com

'Editor’s Note: The National Pulse has taken the editorial decision to stop referring to Harry Windsor by his reputed title, “Prince Harry, Duke of Sussex” on account of his failure of his duties towards the British public on behalf of The Crown.'

hilarious

Mr Plasticine is back... one article with H&M disputing the whole awards! Hmmmmm PR piece back fired?
And another dig at Catherine and Wills about their tour (and travelling to Scotland)

Scobie is such a fucking shit stirring cunt.

Straw Poll:

How many of us would have sought out the company of a pregnant "friend" and organised a pap shoot in the weeks after a miscarriage?

The steak house meal to celebrate her "bestie" Katherine McPhee's pregnancy. The PR released at the time was littered with words like "smiles"/"celebrating/date night/happy couples"...

 

[freda19]

So with Kate launching her big 5 insight today what's the plan going to be? The fact this is Kate's solo project and a lot of research has been done, this is too big to allow her to have any limelight or coverage. Especially when the death of Maradona pretty much sent hef onto page 5 within hours. My bet is on either a new fuzzy picture of Archie, the reveal of a pregnancy or a scabbied special leak about how migraine reached out to Kate in her pain and she ignored her to suffer in loneliness.

Also what is going in with the beef with camilla? This is the second time she's deliberately stolen the limelight from her solo speech about domestic violence. To me it feels like absolute hatred of camilla on a Kate level so wondering why that is. Its not clever considering she's attacking the two wives who'll soon own the purse strings. And I think based on all the shit she's had, camilla wouldn't think twice at decking her. I'm in the minority but I like camilla and if I was at a state dinner, would definitely want to sit next to hef or Philip. Imagine the gossip you'd get

She's a man person. Other women are just extras in her world of men.
We all know the type, she will walk into a room and head straight for the biggest group of men ... maybe give a cutesy wave in the general direction of some females, but she will focus on the men like an exorcet missile.We have one of those in work and the male bosses refuse to deal with her if it can be avoided because she flirts and flaps like a loony around them and it makes them uncomfortable. Funny for us onlookers but sickening too.

Blimey. Toronto Paper is back.

I’m so sorry to read of all the women on here who have suffered the horrible ordeal of a miscarriage. I am so sorry to all of you to you that you had to go through that.

I do have a question though I hope it doesn’t sound insensitive but I’ve seen Megan and some others saying she is removing the ‘shame’ and ‘taboo’ around miscarriage, and it’s taken me by surprise as I didn’t think there was shame and taboo around miscarriage? Obviously grief, upset , trauma etc - but a taboo subject? Maybe someone else can educate me on this as I found the wording jarring.

I do think the wording around shame and taboo isn't right and is a bit OTT. What i think they mean is that it is something which if you tell people, it makes them feel uncomfortable and they usually don't know what to do or say. Ironically I was asked if I was ok, but then you could see with everyone a real look of fear in their eyes if you were going to actually say how shit it felt. I think people don't want to say the wrong thing so say nothing but it can actually make it feel worse somehow. I think we should talk more about it but that fanfiction she wrote will not help.

It really triggered me yesterday and I couldn't work out why. I think the dramatics made me immediately feel ot was fake and then I felt shit for disbelieving someone who could be going through a really shit time. The charities are stuck. They have to say something otherwise they'll get attacked for not supporting someone who needs them.

I don't get her long term game. Yes it'll get her headlines and a bit of sympathy but what next? Is miscarriage and child loss their new push. If so great although perhaps focus on the charities and other people. Or is this just a promo for her first Netflix show?

Also could you imagine telling people you've lost a baby and people's immediate response is you're lying. At what stage do they take a step back and look at themselves and who they are and what they're seen as?

[50sGirl]

If she is pregnant and does have another kid I do hope it has some sort of disability, I know that's very wrong of me to wish that but it could make this cunt realise she's a selfish bitch and needs to change her attitude and that it isn't all about her.

No, just no.
Comments like this give fuel to people who say Tattlers are vile.
It’s a truly vile thing to say.

 

[mardymare]

Seeing the Queen welcoming William and Catherine, together with Charles & Camilla, Edward & Sophie and Anne at Windsor, it's quite clear MM & JCMH will never appear as part of the real Royals again. Thank God for that. Kate changed from her wonderful red coat so as not to upstage the Queen but you know that if she were appearing that MM would try to wear a red coat like she wore a red dress to the military music evening.

There is no shame around miscarriage and anyone who says otherwise has clearly never had one.

Trauma yes, shame no.

She is the ‘royal’ equivalent of Gemma Collins. Always has to be relevant, despite wanting privacy too. Always a bloody drama with this one.

I have had miscarriages and never felt an ounce of shame. But I was very traumatised by them and it took me years to come to terms with the fact that I could not have children.

Raindrop Harry looks like a sulky child being made to do chores. I actually feel sorry for him having to read that shite. Flowery? Tick. Tone deaf? Tick. Plagiarised? Tick. Re-worded to the point where it is just incomprehensible gibberish? Tick.

It has her hoofprints all over it.

Some absolutely hilarious comments online:

"These two phoney, preaching knuckleheads should go count the amount of raindrops it takes to flush and clean those 16 bathrooms, water that huge garden thats the size of a small town, and heat and cool their gaudy mansion, and keep the private jets going. Then go hide under a blanket in shame."

 

[spangly]

Bloody hell I don't know whether to call him Prince Haznoballs or Prince Haznohair now!

I just like simple old "Hazno" - it covers the whole host of things that Harry finds himself without - balls, backbone, hair, intelligence, loyalty, personality, GCSE's etc....etc!

 

[Baguette]

Gosh, hope we're not about to get a constant running commentary about every political/social matter, I cannot cope with this amount of bullshit.
Why does he even think that anything he says is relevant? If he, indeed, wanted to live his life as "just call me Harry", then there's no more reason to him to go to the papers with any opinion he might have than me going and doing the same.

Incidentally, people pointing out that although he did say that someone said that it was like "Mother Nature sent us to our rooms for bad behaviour", but didn't simply say it was actually his own Auntie Fergie...so definitely checking up her IG account

I hadn't spotted that Harry is claiming 'end the stigma': ”On this #WorldAIDSDay, I want to restate my personal commitment to doing all I can to keep in chipping away at the stigma and to be able to say we are the generation that finally ends HIV.”

Saw this reply on Twitter and thought it was spot on.

Stigma is their new catch phrase. My nephew has been living with AIDS for over 20 years now. He feels no stigma towards it and is living a good life.

So last week Meghan told every woman that has had a miscarriage they should feel stigma and shame. Now Harry is telling those living with HIV/AIDS they are suffering from a stigma. Just no. What is it with these two? What are they going to tell us peasants to feel shame about next?

Surely having a tree murdered just for their private christmas decoration purposes is totally against all that the Prince and Duchess of Wokedom stand for anyway. I hope they don't decorate it with any plastic tinsel or baubels, or have any lights on it, given their eco stance.

Or will they go the usual route of the pretend-concerned ecoscammer and claim they've had 32 new saplings planted in its place thus restoring their carbon neutral halo.

I have had nine miscarriages and our tenth was born stillborn so I do feel I have the right to comment. She probably means taboo in the fact it's not really talked about and I think often it's because people including family and friends dont know what to say. On this forum I have talked about my losses in different contexts and sharing with others and there well wishes and kind words on other threads where I have online acquaintances have brought me some comfort. That being said miscarriage and baby loss is a very private thing imho I do not understand the likes of Meghan and especially chrissy Teigen. When we lost our child the furthest thing on my mind while in the delivery room was to ask my husband to get his phone out and start taking pictures and or selfies and documenting the traumatic events. Equally so I think Meghan is an attention seeker and I feel sad for her if she had a miscarriage but no doubt unlike a lot of mothers she will not only have the best medical care available but can grieve at her own pace rather than like many of us throwing ourselves on anti depressants in a bid to get back to work to try and keep our shit head job through covid and the economy falling to bits. I cant even be arsed listening to meghan to be honest.. I'm not really okay meghan but guess what I keep it private as it should be and dont have millions in the bank to make the morhs that follow easier. I've also been through hell with the nhs (not the nhs fault they are buckling under covid) but some of the things that I have been told procedures I have endured would no doubt have been a lot different on the lido wing or the like !!

Thank you for sharing these painful memories with us. Of course no woman should feel shame and to be honest I've never heard of anyone saying such a thing before, so I really don't understand why Meghan is being lauded by people for doing so.

Most people don't want to share intimate information about miscarriages, illnesses, medical procedures and grief with everyone else. Usually that is just for a few trusted family members or close friends. Like you I don't understand the need to discuss with everyone you know or on social media. Of course everyone is different but most people don't know what to say in response and some people might find it uncomfortable.

As posted in the Harry Markle blog:
'The consensus from real people is that you do not ask someone who has miscarried, or who is bereaved if they are okay, because they aren’t and it’s the worst thing to say to someone.'

It would seem that the Harkles have been taking lessons regarding charitable foundations and utilization of tax codes from the Clintons. We all know that they are using the front of charity to fund their opulent lifestyle.

How much money do they really have? I'm convinced that they are going to go bankrupt at some point. The Clintons actually had huge amounts of $$ donated but the Harkles are trying the same tricks in the middle of an economic downturn and juggling so many "charitable " entities is starting to resemble a shell game.

I found this interesting comment underneath the video:

'Actually it might not have been announced but William has hired investigators since last year , this is why HMTQ wanted Harry returned to because of the investigation, its claimed that Megan had Harry empty air of charity account last including some money’s been missing from QCWT... but now the queen has simply made up her mind to strip them in 2021 ans she also send letters through her attorneys advising Megan and Harry that it’s not necessary to show up for the review and that the palace will announce everything, belive me the cottage was taken ans the harkels had no clue . It’s been said that Megan is absolutely livid ... the royals have completely cut them off financially and from all communications ... it’s also been said Megan had repeatedly tried to contact Charles since she would only go to him for everything... Megan’s 15 minute game is over with ..'

 

[YgritteSnow]

I’m quite convinced that when Thomas Markle dies, MeGain will imply she was abused by him as a child. It’s the next step in her victim narrative and will ‘explain’ why she ignored him for the last years of his life.
