AH well The Sun can’t let DM have all the fun. And Harry is now stomping through the halls of KP screaming at his staff “make this go away”. He deserves every bit if this. Stupid twit.
And they are already bringing up the Fergie comparisons.
My favorite statements from this column:
“I don’t think either of them [Harry and Megs] comes out of this well.”
“Meghan seemed cold with a statement declaring she has always ‘cared’ for her father following the news his heart condition meant he wouldn’t walk her down the aisle.“
“The ball is very much in Meghan’s court.”
“…but these will be tricky times for the newly minted Duchess of Sussex.”
“She needs to cement her popularity in these crucial early days.”
Looks to me like this column is practically prepping the waters for what will likely come later this month and August.
This relationship just revealed who he truly was, imo. That’s why the royal reporters all jumped on the romance bandwagon while the fandom was still thinking that she was just another press-hungry starlet using his name for publicity. They knew about the celeb-chasing, the Soho House dates and the Botswana booty calls. They’d known for years.
Yes, IVF is a treatment for male infertility. If you can’t get a decent sperm sample through ejaculation, then they have put the sperm & egg together in the lab because it can’t happen naturally.
You said it came from Harry and not her. I suspect it came from both.
No, I don’t think she’s doing just fine. I doubt the goal here was countless articles about her protocol fails and million-dollar wardrobe, but that’s what they got. I suspect they intended it to be all “Meghan dazzles in high fashion looks as she flawlessly adjusts to royal life,” or something like that. Harry said in the engagement interview that she was going to be wonderful at the job and I think he meant it.
My caveat had more to do with Harry’s involvement in this. I do think he sold herself to Harry as the best thing since chicken nuggets and those expectations are not being met. However, I think the driving force is Meghan. She’s the one who thinks that the black-clothes-into-pink-clothes, no-fruitcake, plain-wedding-dress, tons-of-celebs strategy is absolutely brilliant. She really is a complete idiot about this. That interview the anon pulled up had a paragraph where she patted herself in the back for having American Rachel wear a “Canadian tuxedo,” because it made her look like “one of us.” That’s the kind of think she thinks is brilliant.
I agree that’s her goal, but I’m on the fence as to whether he’s figured it out or not. I have many anons saying he’s caught not, but I’m not sure.
I think he knows this is not going well, but I don’t know if it goes beyond that. I think he thinks this can still be salvaged. If there is a change in his attitude, I expect it will happen after the Balmoral vacay/August polls.
Thanks! Always good to have an on-the-ground perspective. I do think the “celeb vs. royal” debate has been going on for a while in the UK, though. I’ve seen several articles about it. The Spectator has had a couple and Hilary Mantel did some essays and someone else prominent who I can’t remember right now. I even found an Australian one. This is just another slide down a slippery slope, imo.
I have no clue how they are going to manage the christening, the RAF anniversary and the Irish tour, all in the span of three days. I’m hoping for a real fuck-up this time.
And we’ll probably get a real fuck-up at that time.
Harry has a new beaded bracelet, guys! Oh, and his trip included Botswana. We all know what happens in Botswana, don’t we? This is another possible explanation for Meghan’s Xanax look.
Well, I don’t do tarot, but I understand the general gist of things. It seems everyone who does tarot cards on them gets things that don’t indicate a good or lasting marriage/relationship.
Oh yeah, the distancing has definitely started. She couldn’t make it to Lesotho. I haven’t seen any articles or photos with Harry at polo from yesterday. And now she’s going to be hunkered up in the palace until her next engagement? Like, certain people (*cough* Markle stans/sugars *cough*) don’t seem to realize that this is not a great start to a royal marriage.
I’d probably only give this 10 months max (until March 2019) if it’s to finalize the paperwork. But we’ll see…
You’re welcome! Normally I wouldn’t think Megs still had pr different from the palace, but she must have considering how much articles are originating with US press such as US Weekly and People. Palace would always use UK media first.
I don’t think Harry is quite done, yet, but I think he’s getting there. Like, I doubt the “stuck with me” line he gave on Tuesday night was written into his speech. No way would Kensington Palace staff have written that. I assume he ad libbed it for some reason. They probably had a fight after he got home from Lesotho. When Harry is truly over it, we’ll know for sure because we’ll see “palace sources” in all sorts of articles about her bad behavior, even if there hasn’t been an official announcement. But that’ll be in UK press, not US Weekly & People no doubt.
Given how Harry played polo today without Megs present and Harry’s “stuck with me” comment during his speech last night, it certainly doesn’t seem like this is the strongest newlywed relationship. For me, based on the timing of these comments alone, it is not a good sign. (Not that there has ever really been a plethora of good signs surrounding this relationship and marriage.)
To me, it seems that this marriage is one ESCANDALO away from going up in flames. Megs can’t make it through a softball engagement without being on xanax or godknowswhat just to make it through an evening posing and shaking hands; Harry doesn’t have his wife around what many people thought would have been easy outings for them–namely a trip to Lesotho for Sentebale and a polo match. Fleet Street can see that there is an opening being created for them to just light the kettle on fire. It might not happen this week, but it wouldn’t surprise me if something happens by the end of July.
I’ve seen at least two tarot card readings where the readers were given a card with “10″ regarding the length of the marriage. They took it to mean that the marriage wouldn’t last more than 10 years. I suspect that the “10″ refers more to the 10th month–October–of this year. But again, we’ll just have to see how this all shakes out.
Yesterday i had randomly come across an online article that talked about how in some situations PDA can mean bad things for a relationship and it got me thinking about Harry and Meghan. The article talked about how even sometimes PDA posts on social media can show that the poster has insecurities about the relationship. I thought about all the clues Meghan was leaving on her instagram and even though she never flat out shared a pic of them kissing it was basically the same thing just more discreet. If she really felt secure and in love with Harry she wouldn’t need to do silly things like that. It wasn’t just her seeking attention imo, she needed the relationship validated somehow. Some quotes from the article: “Exorbitant posting of seemingly positive status may be a thin veil to obscure the real problem: insecurity.”
“The same study concluded that the more times that a partner feels insecure about his partner’s feelings, he tends to make their relationship more visible online. The goal is to compensate by making others who are online feel that everything in the relationship is going smoothly. The more “likes” and other positive comments people receive with regards to their relationships, the more they feel convinced and reassured of the relationship.”
“the more the relationship is secure, the more that the couple would want to keep it private and sacred.”
Meghan leaking constantly about how “perfect” their relationship is, is the equivalent of social media posts. When she had Jess go and fetch her that initial necklace so she could be photographed in it,making everyone believe Harry got it for her and all the times she just had to be photographed with the silly bracelet. It wasn’t for attention because everyone already knew they were together, she was doing it out feelings of insecurity in the relationship. I believe Meghan is the insecure one in the relationship and not Harry. That is why she clings to Harry and when they hold hands she always initiates it. She is extremely insecure about their relationship so she overcompensates in front of the cameras. She needs the world to believe that everything in their relationship is perfect because she knows it’s not. I wouldn’t be surprised if she knew Harry was sleeping with other women when they first starting seeing each other and that’s what made her feel the need to run to the press to reassure herself and the entire world how perfect they are together and how head over hills in love Harry is with her.
I could be totally wrong on this and it’s just my opinion.
Thanks for sending this in! This is a perfectly valid opinion. It would also explain all of the “wonderful Meghan” and “Queen approves” press.
Yup. Harry is going to be the one to drop her. Based on everything seen tonight, he seems done with some of her previous antics of looking super loved up at royal functions tonight. Even if he’s not over her yet, I have no doubt he will be shortly.
It took me a moment to figure out what you were talking about. Are you aware all of this markle daddy issue crap could’ve been avoided if they made an effort to actually see him. She could’ve at least went to go see her dad in person before leaking her own showmance. But because they are so desperate to stay woke, relevant, young, and diverse the only person they made an effort to have physical and public contact with was her mother. Who got her narrative of being a poc. Her father was extremely silent up until the engagement. So why wasn’t he shown the same helping hand? Why was he only given a phone call here and there? It’s one thing to hear over the phone dont talk to so and so, it’s another to physically be there in person expressing your concern and making things clear. And harry is somewhat at fault because if he is as controlling as her PR is making him out to be he should’ve said handle this crap in person or else it will bite you in the ass after the wedding. But that’s just my opinion.
LOLOLOL. I’m glad I’m not the only one who thought so. There’s something very off about her behavior. Apparently she was giggling during Harry’s speech.
It’s been going steadily downhill since Xmas, imo. They were giddy during the engagement announcements and Nottingham, but then Sandringham rolled around and they’ve been looking stressed and out of it since then.
we put forward your personality bah Meghan is lost because she does not know who she is since more than 15 years.She has changed so many times of personality .. I start to believe Joseph Magi youtubeur but also tarologist who said he is 8 months. Meghan will sink into a big depression or madness. alcohol and pill.It runs after something that does not exist too obsessively with money can glory = illusion.
Thanks for sending this in. I’ll check him out.
This is his most recent regarding Megs & Harry (from the day before the wedding:
It’s not about the veracity of the claims- he was also right about weak leadership- it’s about making them in the first place. If he wanted to say that he doesn’t want to be king then fine. But William and Charles’s opinions on it actually matter and Harry totally threw them under the bus by speaking on their behalf. I do this a lot but if you compare it to Victoria talking about taking on the throne, she said “I live in the present and do my utmost to benefit Sweden today. So for me this lies in the future. My daily work is to be relevant in my role here and now.” You can absolutely answer questions about taking on the throne in a diplomatic way. He just didn’t
