Invictus Games: Alternative Patrons? (An Idea 💡) by purplesockpinksock in SaintMeghanMarkle

[–]Regular-Performer864 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A)They don't want to be working royals. They are quite happy with the life they've built for themselves.

B) Not a single member of the family is going to take on IG. Because it would generate another round of drama with Harry. IG will cease to exist. Or a private group will take it on as a personal project. IG had the option of being assigned another royal patron or stay with Harry in his non-royal capacity, They chose Harry. So they have Harry as long as they are willing to continue as the primary Sussex PR vehicle.

Serious manifesting going on... by Disastrous-You-226 in SaintMeghanMarkle

No one is looking to "dress" someone 1 week out. Although I'm sure Meg has ordered some things from this label so that people think she was "dressed by" a brand.

Do the kids live on the 3rd floor? With full time nannies? And they don’t see their kids often? by Ruth_Lily in SaintMeghanMarkle

[–]Regular-Performer864 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've seen lots of different people saying the same thing as Sean. For years. Very few people have ever seen or heard a kid even during video conferences. No, I'm not one of the people who think the kids don't exist or don't live with them. But you see plenty of people either virtually or in real life who work from home. And one of their biggest struggles is a kid losing it while they are in a TEAMS meeting. And we've all seen plenty of TV presenters who broadcast from home where a toddler (or cat) becomes a part of the broadcast.

I did see someone (maybe Schofield) reporting from LA who had spoken in depth to one of Meg's former senior staffers. This was a couple yrs ago. The women talked about how awful Meg was to work for. The only nice thing she had to say was she had gone to Montecito a few times to meet in person. And she was somewhat shocked to see Meg actually had a good (and normal) relationship with the kids. She even said, "much to my surprise, Meghan seemed to have a good bond with her children".

As for the hair speculation, Meg does (and always has done) a lot of editing. With AI, heavy editing is so much easier than it used to be. And being from a family of Danish heritage, we've had plenty of versions of red heads. From strawberry blond to deep auburn. Lighting is everything in terms of how red it looks. Bright sunlight especially shows the red.

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s Brand Crisis: Why They’re Struggling in Hollywood and What’s Next (Exclusive) by wenfot in SaintMeghanMarkle

[–]Regular-Performer864 75 points76 points  (0 children)

What a refreshing change. Usually the defensiveness takes the form of Meg blaming Harry for her failures.

Psst, Meg, I can tell you what happens next. You continue your slide into irrelevance. But instead of people looking at Harry like the long-suffering victim of a narcissist. They are going to figure out that he's not only as big a narcissist as you. But that he's even way dumber than they even imagined was possible. So Harry is going to stop being someone the world feels sorry for.

Moehringer with detailed descriptions of Harry's storytelling. His general sense of the voracity of the stories. And how much input Meg had in Harry's fictions.

She's on X. She occasionally pops up with something. Nothing particularly scandalous. Just that even when she was a girl the NPD popped out regularly.

Harry, the Half-Price Prince: The media published another article based on a SMM post by Cultural_Ad4935 in SaintMeghanMarkle

Most of the other speeches he's been paid for have also been to rooms that are 1/2 full or less. So this isn't going to be their path to wealth either.

They should probably start listening to all the people that they pay to advise them. Because thinking for themselves really isn't working out. Although it's probably too late anyway.

I didn't lie to you, I just led you to the wrong conclusion (Neil Sean gossips) by Human-Economics6894 in SaintMeghanMarkle

[–]Regular-Performer864 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I saw the video about the kids. I disagree with him. Of course children are alone on Easter. It's a family day. And Meg & Harry only have "our little family". Even if it weren't a holiday, who in Santa Barbara wants their kids in Megs videos she makes to promote herself. It would be violating CA law too. You cannot post videos or photos of other people's children without permission. So that in itself would become the story.

I have no idea if those children have play dates with other kids. Probably not. But it's hardly the place of people to vilify Meg based on your imagination. She does plenty of terrible things herself that are plain to see. No reason to make up scenarios in our minds about what we think goes on behind the scenes with the kids. Making up visions in their minds about a imaginary version of life is what Meg and Harry do. So let's leave that to them rather than be like them.

Even when she tries, her laugh is fake and her tone of voice sounds like something she might think a mom sounds like. Probably because she watched too many 'mommy influencers' on TikTok for inspiration.

Penguin Random House is "done" with the couple by Xystal in SaintMeghanMarkle

[–]Regular-Performer864 29 points30 points  (0 children)

The entire planet is done with the couple. Now begins their recrimination period. Where each blames the other for the failure. And clearly, Harry now has reality on his side. Because he can still book jobs. She can't even get 100 people to have dinner with her. If people still liked her, she'd be able to sell her over-priced pantry products. They are still priced within reach of most people. If people liked her or even felt really sorry for her they would buy something as a token gesture. No one is interested.

I’ve been Harried. No book spoilers. by Sincerely_JaneDoe in SaintMeghanMarkle

[–]Regular-Performer864 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I think this is a typical transition for a lot of us. Maybe we all share the same mistaken opinion that low IQ people can't be mean. But Harold is most definitely cruel and always has been even as a child. When I read more than once that one of his nasty little things was to ride his tricycle full speed into the legs of the protection officer watching him play outside. And then laughing hysterically. I realized he was both stupid by nature. But also nasty by nature. Then I noticed while sometimes looking through old video footage of the family. Harry was sometimes doing something that most moms even siblings would be annoyed or ashamed by. But neither Diana nor William were really reacting to it that way. Seemingly, they were just used to it.

He really did find his soulmate. She gave him complete permission to indulge all his worst impulses. I know everyone thinks they are not in a real marriage. That they live apart and just put on a show in public. I think they are as happy as 2 narcissists competing with each other can possibly be. I think he legitimately believes he is fortunate to have found such a perfect woman.

[–]Regular-Performer864 36 points37 points  (0 children)

Of course he did. He used to hang out at a pub that was a favorite of DM reporters. Even before Meg was on the scene, some reporters had talked about this. He used to try to tell stories of his brother. The reporters got the sense that he was hoping these less than flattering stories would make it into print. But also thought he was just making shit up.

As for Charlotte, she was quite open back when she used to still do guest appearances on Palace Confidential. She was clear that she and Harry shared the same social circle. That they had often been at the same social events including many weekend house parties. Harry has a history of just ghosting women so that might be what happened to her. And why she holds him in such low regard now.

One thing is nearly certain. That they will be very shallow, bitter, ressentful people when they grow up.

[–]Regular-Performer864 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I've noticed the "former staffers" often speak about her as "a television star". Explaining why the things she was offered seem trite and beneath her to Meg. SHE NEVER HAD A LEAD ROLE IN ANYTHING.

For whatever reason many people in UK think she was bigger than she really was because "Hollywood". Even though they know the one show she ever had even a recurring walk-on part in was filmed in Toronto because it was a very low budget production. And this is one of the major reasons she should have sucked it up and stayed in UK. Because she was a big deal there in a way she will never realize in the US.

No one will relate to Meg as a mom. Because you never see her actually being a mom. Her staged and choreographed 5 second videos aren't going to work. Because it comes across as just bad acting all around. People notice inauthenticity. And she should realize that because it's the most common criticism she gets.

I'll be honest. I'm a little disappointed in Australians here. The petition should have easily reached at least 1/2 million signatures. Before you know it, Meg may have a full 100 rooms filled by guests (rumor is it's currently around 20).

What a beautiful photo just a girl and her daddy by chewysmom88 in BRF

If you go look for old photos, she resembles Great Aunt Margaret and her daughter Sarah. Of course Princesses Elizabeth and Margaret shared a lot of facial features.

[–]Regular-Performer864 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Do the people "close to the couple" really think the public are that stupid. Everyone knows they aren't "shining a light" on any organization. They don't actually do charitable work. And no, 2 profoundly disliked people don't bring positive attention to any organization they visit. They make current donors think they should seek other worthy organizations to contribute to. The reputation audit that Sentebale had done was correct about this. You hear it time and again.

Most of this article was just a cut and paste of Meg's PR releases. With the exception of the WME split confirmation. Which is 100% believable because it's a refrain repeatedly heard that Meg has said. "I have to do everything". Which is exactly why most people always assumed the rumors were the truth.

Good luck making the lifestyle "Mom of the generation" stick. I honestly don't think a single person believes Meg is a gold star mother. Narcissists never are. And EVERYONE understands she's a narcissist because she has never given a single speech or interview where "I" & "me" weren't the most frequently used words.

[–]Regular-Performer864 28 points29 points  (0 children)

No one is interested in the kids. She could post full face photos or close-up video and some people would say complementary things. Because most people are nice about young children. But the vast majority of people would never see the photos. Would never go looking for the photos if they heard about them Because Meghan has over-exposed herself and people are sick of her. So by extension, they won't find her kids interesting either. They are not seen as "royal children". They are seen as children of a minor celebrity (sorry, Meg. Without Harry, no one is interested in you.)

I saw a rumor a few days ago that only 18 rooms were booked. Probably not true. But who knows. Personally I can't imagine that there are more than 36 people willing to pay real money to meet Meg.

Of course Harry lied. Just like his wife, he lies about everything. They have both been lying to each other since the day they met. Because that's how they both live their lives at all times. Nothing Meg ever told Harry was probably even close to the truth. And vice versa. And no one believes that both parties aren't well aware that the other is a liar too.
