I'll PM you, don't really want to carry on bringing another poster into it.

What even would be trashy dress for a man? Having a bollock hanging out?

I really really don't understand this weird obsession everyone has with Meghan

Same, and that goes for people on both sides of that particular fence.

Like, she's a bit ghastly, but not quite worthy of hatred. Nor is there anything much to love about her ... apart from "slay kween, she triggers the racists, we love to see it" or something :rolleyes:

Beso 25-02-2021 05:19 PM

Shes dull as dish water...and hes much the same.

Yet they demand to be celebs instead of royals..


I'd rather watch marco sabas 24/7.

I don't have any particular feelings about Harry and Meghan either way and if you absolutely had to push me, they're a little bit took "woke" for me to take entirely seriously but each to their own.

That's not going to stop me going in on the varying degrees of racism, classism and misogyny that oozes from those who will take any opportunity to attack Meghan... especially the ones who want to spin a "poor little Harry" narrative alongside.

GoldHeart 26-02-2021 02:43 AM

Oh because the BBC is such a good broadcasting company aren't they with their innocent moral high ground ?? :whistle::idc: .

Yeah I don’t buy that at all, I think he is worse because he knew what Meghan was getting into but when ahead with a showy wedding etc anyway, should have set out his stall from the off, he is in his 30s not 17

Its Hatred
not obsession.



GMBHD itv
showed a new clip of James Corden
with the Prince Harry on a tour Bus
but then he goes on a mobile phone
and its Meghan

She calls the Prince "Haz"

arista 26-02-2021 07:05 AM

[Prince Harry has revealed he stepped back
from his royal duties because the British
press was "toxic" and was "destroying" his mental health.

The royal gave a candid interview to
British talk show
host James Corden's The Late Late Show - with the
pair touring Los Angeles on an open air bus
with afternoon tea.
Harry opened up about why he withdrew
from Royal duties, insisting "I did not walk away",
but had to leave due to the
British press affecting his mental health.

He said it was a "really difficult environment,
as I think a lot of people saw".
"We all know what the British press can be like.
And it was destroying my mental health. This is toxic."
He added: "So I did what any husband
and father would do - I need to get my family out of here.]

Pathetic BBC1AM

Had a brief clip
but only on silly stuff. (about the baby)

And James Corden is on UK SkyComedyHD


So BBC1AM put CBS USA.

Harry: "My mental health was suffering because of the toxic British press."

The British press: "He is LYING and being CONTROLLED, his mental health was suffering because of his toxic wife!"

Exactly. Even if she is toxic and controlling, the rags don't exactly help.

Arthur Edwards (Royal Photographer)
speaking on GMBHD itv
said Prince Harry he wondered what he has got in his head?

Arthur said it all changed after Meghan came along

Livia 26-02-2021 09:38 AM

Why do the Meghan Fan Club assume everyone who either doesn't like Meghan, or those who are indifferent towards her, are "haters". I don't spend any emotion on her. and really, I find the Meghan love a little creepy, seeing that no one knew her before she married Harry, except those who watched Suits. Hollywood Royalty she ain't.

I take it you're discussing people generally and not those on TiBB.

No one really knows. Not you, not me, not the haters, not the Fan Club... And the more speculation goes on the further from the truth everyone gets.

They want to be left alone. Let's help them with that.

I know what you are saying but people knew less about Kate Middleton before she and William got married and she was loved for the get go too. I don't think you have to have known them previously to admire them when they do get into the spotlight

William was with Kate for years, they were at Uni together. I remember all the headlines she got too. "Waity Katie", because the press thought it was time she was married. She was called a commoner and her family were ridiculed. She had ten years of it before they got married.

Meghan, however, was engaged, married, gave birth and left the country all within about 18 months.

:omgno: I would NEVER discuss other members or their various flavours of bigotry.

I can somewhat agree that they were a bit hard-line on the wanting to be left entirely alone if they still want to live a public life through their own work (and, it seems, they do) - choosing that as a career means accepting some degree of public comment.

That said, I don't think it should be a press free-for-all when it comes to celebrities and I don't think asking for the vitriolic press to lay off a bit is a huge ask. I would think it reasonable request from any high-profile individual. Public discourse is one thing but there should be tighter restrictions on the accuracy and tone of what's actually published, be that physical or digital.

Nothing new there - the "I don't want people talking about our private life" Harry, formerly known as Prince, talking about their private life again. :sleep:
