yes short shelf life which is why I doubt Oprah is going to her aid. Oprah is in a dicey spot re: her Weinstein connections. Plus Oprah is not the influencer she once was. The RF does not care re: Oprah. But Oprah does have the Hearst connection and most of MM’s US pr comes out of Hearst publications. So she may get some help from Oprah but ultimately the mags know MM is no draw they see the numbers. The RF is a draw. MM cannot win. She should have known that but crazy is as crazy does.

The levels of her craziness astound me but oh well…

New Royal Tea from our CD group!

Hello Everyone!! Yes, it’s a very good day to be anti-Meg…#Megxit campaign has entered Phase Two. (This is long, so I apologize in advance)

If you’ve noticed the anti-Meg articles are appearing everywhere…no longer can even the most sugary media outlets ignore that sentiments toward the Duchess of Suck-excess have shifted dramatically.

Remember when I told you that the palace PR campaign would be a “drip, drip” one? Here’s the “Irish Independent” reporting on Nov. 27, “By and large, until now, the anti-Meghan sentiment has been drip fed into to our newsfeeds that it’s hard to pinpoint exactly when the tide turned.”

YES. The tide has indeed turned as planned by the royals most trusted advisers. This is not heartless, there is more at stake than most people know. I don’t have to tell you the reasons why it’s imperative the public image of the RF stays without blemish as much as possible.

Oh, but you may say isn’t this a scandal, isn’t having anti-Meg press a blemish? IF Meghan is allowed to ruin the RF that would not only be a scandal but a real catastrophe.

The Royal Family has endured scandals and divorces–we all know that. And this PR war wasn’t started by the royals, it was started when Meghan manipulated Harry into a marriage under false pretenses.

Now, let’s get to the juicy parts. Holding back on the Kate/Charlotte bridesmaid dress fiasco story was a palace PR decision–and a wise one. You see if this would have leaked at the time it happened, any good press from the wedding itself would have been overshadowed by this infighting.

Good PR is knowing when to release bombshells–they have to be timed for maximum exposure. The wedding was so HUGE in the news the Kate/Charlotte incident would have been wasted at that time–that’s why they waited until Phase Two to start leaking this info.

In the coming weeks expect more atrocious anti-Meg stories from the wedding. Pro-Meg PR will be from connections Oprah has in certain American press outlets and beyond. This is because Oprah is dying to play the race card against anyone who dares lash out at MM. Of course, MM also has her PR people going 24/7 but they have been eclipsed by the anti-Meg leaks. That’s why she is turning to Oprah.

And Meghan is aware something has gone very wrong. She knows she is being outmaneuvered by palace PR. In fact, it was at Eugenie’s wedding that Meghan knew something was about to explode.

MM tried to chat up Kate before and after the ceremony and Kate made it clear, my source says, “That Meghan was not going to be forgiven.” Then, when Harry wanted to go the reception, MM thru a fit. She didn’t go as we all know.

Palace gossip is later, when Harry stumbled home, MM was heard loudly saying, “She hates me and so why do you talk to her?! I haven’t done anything wrong! I’m the one who has given up everything.” Harry tries to calm her down…and she yells, “I don’t care who hears me– f*ck them all!”

Meghan’s also upset over the Frogmore banishment. When that news got back to BP the Queen had little sympathy, said my source. They said PP asked, “What’s she going on about now?” HM responded, “She is going on about not wanting to move. But it’s for the best. It’s time she learns who is really in charge. She isn’t the star, here.”

Palace gossip is additional aides and staffers are threatening to quit. My source spoke to one who said, “She’s a nightmare. She screams and yells at all hours. PH tries to apologize but he can’t control her. People here are starting to not feel sorry for him anymore. Yes, he looks so depressed, but we won’t put up with her abuse much longer.”

They describe MM as being paranoid, now. She yelled at one staffer, “Did you leak to the press?! I’ll find out who did and when I do they won’t know what hit them!”

Well, I think MM won’t know what hit her. Phase Two of the PR campaign will last for a time and then there is the final phase. Phase Three is more intense.

Hi! Pr anon. Megsy proving again the US is the market that matters to her. Major pr effort US market to prove she and Kate are fine and the UK press is out to get her. Expensive. Cosmo Elle VF People. But you will love this. She claims she does not read the press cause she believes in karma and avoids negative things. LOL. Unless of course she is creating the negative things. So MM still has her delusions about capturing a US market for post Harry fame and fortune. Nope.

I find MM’s plans for the US market laughable. She’s burned through all the “firsts” a new member of the BRF would have. She could never drum up much interest when she was just an actress. All the interest she can generate is because she’s attached to Harry, and when the day comes when she’s no longer attached to Harry she’ll have a short shelf life.

Can’t wait to hear how she deals with things next week because you can’t always avoid negative things in your life.

Go Zambia! They SHOULD feel insulted. Meg proved that she DOESN’T care about zika during the tour, so the zika excuse is doubly insulting- first because it unjustifiably tarnishes Zambia’s name/prospects, and secondly because it gives the appearance that those countries they visited that DO have zika are more valued by BRF so both had to go despite huge risk, but Zambia doesn’t matter so the (false) same risk = no show. Should have just said SHE PERSONALLY needed to rest and left it at that lol

talkingtarot:

Exactly.

I’m fine with her making visits to the Community kitchen. I still think she’s exploiting their tragedy for her benefit but some support is better than nothing and the women do seem taken by her. Fine. Does she really need to bring cameras INSIDE with her as she fake mixes and stirs?! How does no one else see it’s all for the cameras?!! Nor see her “secret” visit has been documented from start to finish. I hate Piers Morgan but he’s the only one who would call her out for her blatant mugging.

Well, she did get that nice terrorist association headline this week in return.

not the belly cupping although in person she is excessively thin so that raises eyebrows. It is her arrogance her rudeness mistreatment of people filthy mouth. Demands. Nature of the interaction between Harry and her. Seen as insulting to people’s intelligence to impose what is clearly something very wrong something very off. That has caused great offense. This is very serious now. To me not surprising.

Oh really??? Geez, that’s even worse than I thought, I mean, in terms of her behavior such as mistreating people. I can imagine her doing it, but I think even then if I read some of the specifics I’d probably be more appalled than I can imagine at this moment. 

I’m not surprised about the thinness though. When looking at pictures of her, I always try to remember that the camera visually adds 10 pounds to a person in a photograph. She’s pregnant and still looks very slim. I don’t doubt she’s pregnant since, as Houseplant said, her belly would be more consistently shaped for each appearance if she was wearing a prosthetic. I do, however, doubt she’s as far along as she said she was when they announced it. 

I only hope at this point that either some British tabloid or newspaper amongst the Commonwealth countries that were visited is willing to publish an article or two describing her truly, truly outrageous behavior.

confessionsbritishroyals:

There is a reason royals don’t show PDA (along with them being old
school and private about there lives) it draws attention away from the
work. Every headline on this tour is about them touching each other or
lovingly looking into each other’s eyes. What is a dubbo, what is there
plight, what’s happening with there people. I don’t know because of
BANANA BREAD. Your job is not to be cute. It’s to bring attention to
things so people can help/support those issues. Your constant touching
and cuddling under umbrellas is not modernizing the family or bringing
them into the 21st century, it’s DISTRACTING! They need tot stop acting
like teenagers in there first relationship and grow up. Your marriage is
also a job it time you start doing it. Maybe if you would have stopped
for 10 seconds to think about that before you got married you would have
known it’s not the job you wanted. STEP UP, OR STEP OUT!

I think something was said to PH/MM because when they did an official visit there was no hand holding, or baby cupping, actually a professional visit. But then the last 2 events she cupping the baby like it’s weighing her down and won’t let go of him while he’s trying to hold an umbrella. This woman is really not normal.

These two dunderheads are stupid beyond belief with their manners. There is actually an article about why Megs has her hands in her pockets.

She’s supposed to be greeting people, yet she keeps her hands in her pockets and makes her husband do all the work of interacting with the plebes. 

royal-confessions:

“Can Meghan keep her hands off Harry for just 5 minutes? I get they are in love and happy, and that’s great. But stop trying to distract people by acting all cute and instead focus on what’s really important: the charities you’re visiting and the people you’re meeting.“ – Submitted by Anonymous

So, did the press all bail on the hot mess down under. What a disaster overall I would say. The worst is handing out leftover food. Why not buy them some or better yet bake some, LOL! What a clown she is. Is anyone really buying her BS. they smile and perform for the cameras and then you catch him looking miserable. She is awful. I knew it but every appearance confirms my instincts about her bat shit crazy. WOW. He is immature and needs help, seriously.

anonymoushouseplantfan:

That was a very Marie Antoinette moment.

Besides the occasional wardrobe mishap (tags anyone) this is the MOST boring tour EVER!!!! This is why MM PR-vomit isn’t working in her favor too much! Then we have Kate who literally has shown up a handful of times and we’re all like 🤗😄 Lol we’re all waiting for some big implosion of the tour and it’s basically random smelly farts, same ol same ol, hold hands, greet ppl, baby bump, no baby bump, rinse and repeat 😒

Its not the first time we see nobody check her clothes, remember that coat cross/X sewing? Well, that time there was the excuse she was still not royal, but anyway she should take care of herself. It just made me realize, besides assistants, we haven’t heard of Harkles staff, remember when HM send ppl from her staff to W&K?

anonymoushouseplantfan:

anonymoushouseplantfan:

Samantha Cohen is still working for them, no?

I forgot to add a that the ONLY substance that has managed to seep through the belly-cupping, hand-holding, and family drama have been (i) the grants and scholarships from the Queen’s patronages, (ii) the Queen’s relationship with Fiji and Tonga, and (iii) the Queen’s message to the royal family of Tonga. I think that is because of Samantha Cohen.

“I thought KP’s first explanation was security issues.” I thought this was odd too that KP would say there was security issues. It’s like saying they weren’t prepared in advance. This whole thing was so odd.

motherofbulldogs:

anonymoushouseplantfan:

Meghan likes the security excuses. Her 2017 trip to India was delayed “for security reasons,” and I think another visit also had a security issues, but I don’t remember which one it was.

In other words, Meghan made up an excuse so she could leave

If it was really a security risk then fine but shouldn’t the RF’s team have scouted this area beforehand for logistics?Wouldn’t they be able to foresee that there would be local interest and tighten security since it was an open marketplace. This isn’t the first time someone from the royal family has gone to this type of venue. It seemed odd. More like Meghan was uncomfortable although she didn’t look it. She was smiling all the while.

anonymoushouseplantfan:

They would have scouted it.

I thought Meghan’s speech was awful. First she was all ME ME ME and then she started to get patronizing towards women in “developing countries”. She should look closer at her own country. Unless your parents are reasonably well off and you live in a district with a decent school, the public school system is going to the dogs. Its probably the worst in a “developed” country and far worse on average than in any “developing” country. And to go to uni, you first need a decent school.

anonymoushouseplantfan:

Harry’s speech reads a little awkward, but the content is much better. He focuses on the issues and the scholarships that are being granted and even mentions one of the prior beneficiaries.

https://twitter.com/scobie/status/1054918712837332992

I’m really, really, REALLY pissed off by this latest incident and how Fijians are being portrayed in the aftermath of it. Islanders are among some of the nicest people I’ve ever met in my life and drawing on my own experiences, they would never, ever knowingly hurt or scare anyone, let alone Royalty. Their excitement obviously got the better of them (God knows why!) but if the security had just told them to quieten down and respect Meghan’s space, they likely would’ve done so without question.

anonymoushouseplantfan:

Fiji is not getting it’s money’s worth from this tour. First Zika and now security threats. 

Ironically, the whole point of that visit was to show off a program that created safe markets for women. I love how Meghan consistently undermines her own charity visits.

NN;s visit to the marketplace was cut short allegedly due to security concerns because of overcrowding. But even Emily Andrews is saying the market was NOT over crowded and pics bear that out. So why was the visit cut short? Megsy didn’t like mixing with the peasants?

I think their new bodyguard may have overreacted.

In the DM article linked above, there’s a short video snippet where Meghan can be seen saying something to her assistant/private secretary shortly before they decided to leave. I think MM just had enough [unjustifably] and wanted to end the engagement.

I think today EVERYONE agrees: this dress is very inappropriate for meeting people and an engagement. So many options to look cute and comfy yet dress for the job. I also feel most people are already getting tired of holding her “baby bump”, girl please. She’s not the first nor the last to be pregnant 🙄 The media is definitely not helping at all, making MM and Harry’s ego grow even more when most people are over this tour. Thankful for the state visit with Queen Maxima!

anonymoushouseplantfan:

I thought they were just taking a private stroll. I didn’t realize she was meeting the premier looking like a cabana girl. What a clown.

Hey Plant, I need to say something. There is a higher rate of suicides in places like Dubbo in Australia and people are not talking about this because that STUPID STUPID STUPID tour is all about Meghan’s clothes, Meghan’s fake bump, Meghan’s fake hair. I couldn’t be more angry now. I am almost destroying my keybord while typing this. OH MY GOD. Sorry, just needed to get this out of my chest, if you don’t want to publish this it’s ok. Thanks!

anonymoushouseplantfan:

No, I agree this is problem. A lot of the issues and charities that they were supposedly trying to highlight have been buried under an avalanche of pda and baby coverage.

The tour has turned into a tabloid freak show. The Beckham’s bring their own family drama, The Mulroney gate crash the event. Dear old Thomas is still crying, Meghan still can’t brush her and Harry looks like hes been on a bender every night since the tour started. oh hey the mother in law where is she Oh she’s having nanny lesson’s bc she couldn’t look after own daughter according to Thomas. Just another day in the life of the Sussex’s.

anonymoushouseplantfan:

It’s ALL drama, ALL the time. I have great admiration for the BP feed, which is heroically trying to focus on what little substance this tour has.

https://twitter.com/RoyalFamily

The KP feed is also doing a good job. If it weren’t for the endless drama, this would be a boring, but decent tour. The drama, however, is burying everything.

Got sugars messaging me saying this tour is the best ever because they have none stop press and Meghan works and puts charities first. Like i’m done what charities have they even visited does anyone know?

anonymoushouseplantfan:

The Bondi beach charity is the only one that has gotten any press at all, and that’s because they really put on a show. Flying Doc got a little press because of the childbirth demo, but got buried under banana bread news. Kudos to both charities for really trying to get their names out there.

I think that’s it. She met with the Kookaburra Kids yesterday, but that got buried under “pacing herself” news. The indigenous school got embargoed and no one paid any attention to it because of the banana bread. They had lunch at a place that also helps the indigenous, but I didn’t even catch the name, just the menu ingredients. The rest of the events were not charities, just “programs” at different places–Formula 1 something, inclusion whatever at the girls’ school she visited, and something about microgreens. There was so little attention paid to any of these events that I don’t even remember the names of the programs or much about what they did. Oh, wait, there was the rugby Girls Can program. I do remember that name, but mostly because it was so ironic in light of the fact that Meghan couldn’t throw that ball.

The sugars are desperately trying to spin her crap fashion into “seriousness” and “work focus,” but it’s ridiculous because the only thing Meghan is promoting is herself–her pregnancy (binders, comments, presents, belly-thrusting), her relationship (constantly escalating pda), her culinary skills (banana bread, food events), her celeb friends (Serena and Gillian Anderson clothes). You need a magnifying glass to even notice any of the charity work.

Can you make sense of Harry’s speech for me? Perhaps I was too tired to be watching it but it seemed quite self-serving and poorly written in parts, almost pitting the past generation of servicemen & women against this present one? And don’t even get me started on the shout-out to Meghan at the end.

anonymoushouseplantfan:

Oh, KP tweeted a posed pic of Meghan watching him rehearse. I rolled my eyes so hard at that.

https://people.com/royals/prince-harry-invictus-games-speech-practice-meghan-markle/

The games are all about Harry and Meghan now. 

I don’t really get the speech either. It almost sounds like a goodbye speech, but there’s another Invictus in the Netherlands. This isn’t the last one. 

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-6297403/Prince-practises-Invictus-Games-opening-ceremony-speech-wife-Meghan.html

I feel like they both now pivoting to “community building,” maybe that’s why he’s talking about the “Invictus family,” instead of, you know, actually mentioning the individual athletes and their stories. 

i will be that bitch and say she is going to cancelled the boring stuff (ig games )and goes to the receptions and i bet she did bring one tiara , lots of bespoke clothes and lots of diana jewelry

EXACTLY.

you had to know this would happen. she has to keep the focus on her and with IG going and a lot of outdoorsy stuff coming up she needed her “look at me” ploy. So when Harry does the Queen’s Canopy all the discussion will be on MeAgain’s absence. They needed a good tour to prove to the family and gov they could be useful. And they are blowing it with the pr stunts.

anonymoushouseplantfan:

It’s just too much drama all around. I did not think Harry would be able to top his mom’s India tour telenovela, but this may do it.
