Basically my long post came down to them wanting privacy, yet posting good news about the pregnancy..


Looking for likes on facebook imo...like those clappers on a Thursday night in some way.

I feel if they didn't announce it,. people would kick off? And its not something thats easily hidden either. Not for long anyway

Did you see the outrage and entitlement of people when they didn't immediately show pictures of newborn Archie? Couldn't imagine how they'd act if they kept an entire pregnancy a secret.

90 minutes long....

you could not make it up

[Ammi]

...obviously you can’t make it up, while the the media consistently make it up......it’s good that they’re not making it up and rather, speaking for themselves on Oprah.....

They'll make up whatever suits them to put out there on Oprah. Obviously.

[Ammi]

...they’re not ‘putting themselves out there’ by publicly announcing a pregnancy...which is fairly much what most celebrities do...in whatever way they choose to do it, with a pic or without a pic...they’re announcing something very special and sharing their news, they’re not opening themselves up for hostility ....and if they feel as though any media are in any way infringing on their privacy, then a legal action is their right and a well used right against the tabloid media, a win for everyone because many have their privacies intruded on quite ruthlessly and completely slant...they both have special interests and charities etc and they can’t support those so effectively without raising awareness and it’s what their charities would hope for...so they’ll always be high profile people ...when they do release family pics, of course they’ll choose their own photographer...one whose work they admire plus who they’re happy and comfortable to be around ...we would all want that and we would all do that...none of those things are hypocritical nor are they inviting hostility...but I’m sure they’ve accepted that they get that anyway and that’s never going to change...but they don’t put themselves out there for what they appear to get...they just want to have some control over their own lives, which every single one of us would hope ....

If you are replying to my post, I didn't mention the announcement of the pregnancy as an example of them putting themselves out there, because I don't think that at all, please don't put words into my mouth. And please don't see that as hostility again because that is how I would say it to anyone.

But anyway, you see it your way, and others see it theirs, which should be fine and accepted as such....

...you’ve already condemned them so any type of ‘reasoning’ would seem pointless with a fixed mindset of ‘they’ll make up whatever suits...’...it’s impossible for them ever to ‘do right’ if they’ve already been judged to do wrong before they’ve said their first word...

No, but I'm sure like anyone they will want to present themselves in a good light, as would anyone, so I wouldn't be gullible enough to hang on their every word as gospel. Would you?
