Merch/Merching/Profiting
A person/celebrity is only marching IF and WHEN she is receiving freebies or money. Now, if an article identify where the purse/clothes/earrings/rings/bracelets/shoes/underwear are from it doesn’t mean that the person that is wearing is receiving something in return! If it was like that:
Her Majesty would be merching for Launer:

Kate would be merching for Nike, Erdem, McQueen…..
At the bottom line, we all would be merching for brands that we choose to wear, which we do, for free!
MM did merch until the engagement announcement she could do anything that she did prior in her life. Now, she isn’t doing. If she receives one penny she and Harry will be in trouble. Just like Andrew was a few years ago. (Google)
Now, if Mio is releasing to the press data, maybe he is the on receiving money to do it.
No, I’m not defending MM, but some of you are truly getting things wrong and with too much spare time to waste talking privately about what others think and defamating people on here.
Must suck to not have a life! Hopefully I was able to clarify what merching is.
