Will this be the royal carriage Prince Harry and Meghan Markle will use on their wedding day? ? Royal Central (http://royalcentral.co.uk/uk/princeharry/will-this-be-the-royal-carriage-prince-harry-and-meghan-markle-will-use-on-their-wedding-day-98100)
I believe that they'll go with the Ascot Landau as it was already "tested" on this route with Edward and Sophie's wedding. It appears to be more maneuverable in Windsor's narrow streets which will be several people deep on either side and lined with police officers. Any Armed Forces Members who might be on horseback in the front or back will also have to be considered as well.

I'd like to reiterate that I believe that they will use the smaller carriage solely because it will be easier to drive through narrow streets and not because this is a reflection of how the BRF views the wedding. While it isn't a state or semi state affair, it is the private wedding of a Prince of the UK. Like his Uncle Edward, I believe that the carriage procession was always going to be in the plans.

60 Minutes: Germaine Greer offers bleak prediction for Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's marriage (https://www.9news.com.au/national/2018/04/15/22/49/60-minutes-germaine-greer-prince-harry-meghan-markle-wedding)
Double post auto-merged: April 15, 2018, 10:38:04 PM
IMHO Ms. Greer's own outlook on marriage colors her view of how Harry and Meghan will do in the future. :shrug:
If only one daughter of Peter Phillips is a flower girl, which daughter will it be: Savannah or Isla?
I think that both will be in the ceremony if they opt to have Peter and/or Zara's children involved.
For little page boys I'd almost put money on George and Jasper Dyer, godson of Harry's and about the same age. Harry is still close to Mark and Meghan and he used to have meals at the pub in Chelsea Mark owned at one time.
Leaving aside what adult female attendant there may or may not be, if there is going to be a gaggle of little bridesmaids I hope to hell that, besides Charlotte, not all come from the groom's side.
The Cambridge wedding had no Middleton attendants besides Pippa. They all came from William's side. The Yorks had a good sprinkling of both probably because Sarah had half-siblings and lots of other friends and relatives. Sophie had only two pages, two bridesmaids, which is fine though unusual for Royal nuptials, but at least one page boy, one bridesmaid, were the children of her close old friends.
Meghan hasn't any little nieces, but she does have close friends with young daughters, including ones she has described as her 'fairy god-daughters'. I would hope that some of these will be chosen instead of, lovely as Isla and Mia are, the children of cousins of the groom.
It would be nice to see representation from both sides. I believe that with William and Kate their friends either had just gotten married and had no children yet, or their babies were too young to participate in the event. Little Grace Van Cutsem and Laura Lopes were just barely old enough to be involved in such a large scale occasion IMO.
We'll just have to wait a few weeks to see if Jessica Mulroney's daughter is going to be part of the bridal party. :)

Germaine is very entertaining and often tongue in cheek. However, I think we know why 60 Minutes got a feminist republican who is anti-marriage to comment on a forthcoming Royal wedding.
As for 'bolting', Greer should know all about that. Her sole venture into matrimony lasted a matter of weeks in 1968.
Mischief making on the part of Greer. Meghan did not "bolt". She found that the marriage was no longer to her liking and returned the ring...something which I personally consider to be very mature. It is certainly better than engaging in a long drawn out court battle when there are no children involved. I wonder why some people in the press are wishing this couple bad luck even before they start their marriage?
But she is right on one thing. Royal life can be boring as hell if you are a career woman that is used to doing your own thing.
If it does happen, the affected will be Harry and Meghan. I do wish for a happy marriage until death does them apart.
As cold as it may sound, the line of succession is secured.
^ That doesn't mean that the rest of the BRF are of no account or importance. And I very much doubt that Harry and Meghan spend every waking moment thinking about the line of succession. To Harry George and Charlotte are his very much loved niece, nephew and new baby, no more, no less.
It was created and exists, Bill of Rights 1689 and the Act of Settlement 1701, and the people are numbered 1 to 65, so there is an importance from top to bottom.
If there ever is a constitutional crisis from the top individual (i.e. Charles, which has been discussed in past and present by both journalists and public comments), the line is secured by number 2 and so forth. The creation of said line is brilliant, no matter what the individuals decide to do, stay married, divorce, forfeit, decline, etc. they only need to scratch that name off the list and every other will jump up a position.
***
As I said, if Greer prediction happens, the only affected will be Harry the 6th in line and Meghan, the BRF will carry on.
Nobody has said that the rest of the BRF will be affected (though they will be saddened) if there is a divorce between Harry and Meghan. God knows there have been enough divorces in that family in the past and everyone's kept their position.
I know there is a line of succession and the history of it. That doesn't mean that members of the BRF think about it morning, noon and night all their lives.
When Anne visits Edward she doesn't think to herself 'I must visit my brother HRH Prince Edward, the current 9th in succession to the Throne for tea today'.
When the Queen sees Andrew at Windsor she doesn't think 'Here is Andrew, my son and the (current) sixth in succession to the Throne. And Beatrice, my granddaughter, who is seventh. I wonder how they are getting on'.
To the family each individual is a brother, sister, niece, nephew, cousin and so on. When William and Harry are together they're brothers. William doesn't view Harry as an inferior, just as his younger brother. He doesn't see his wife Kate primarily as a future Queen Consort. None of them stand on ceremony with each other, especially the younger members, except with the Queen.
And all working members of the BRF play their part in keeping the royal family relevant and in the public eye.
They know what it entails to the establishment, what it means, and the number they are in line, the bloodline especially. They were born into said establishment, if they think about it daily weekly monthly yearly is their own business. The important matter is that they know what happens when what and why.
Hence there is no consequences if H&M bolt. The line is already secured.
Why would Harry bolt? That was Germaine being tongue in cheek as she often is. As an Aussie I'm used to her little jokes. Harry has just been given a new Commonwealth position and he shows no sign of going anywhere, except round the Commonwealth. And Harry and Meghan aren't even married yet!
Perhaps reading all my post related helps, the IF, the Wish until death does them apart, the facts of line of succession....
Again the inference is that the 'walk on water' Cambridges are the most important people in the BRF and those around them are nothings in comparison.
I tell you what, who doesn't everyone not in the direct line retire from public life, the Wessexes, Anne, Andrew, Harry and the cousins, Kent and Gloucester? After all it's so obvious that all of them are so unimportant in the scheme of things.
William, Kate, and their children can tackle all that Charles/Camilla don't do.
Five year old George can do science, technology, Charlotte lifeboats, and Save the Children, Kate can be everywhere performing Sophie's engagements, William and Kate can take over 690 engagements a year each including the Royal Foundation's (that should keep them busy) and the new baby can try Investitures and military appointments.
Delete
From 1 to 65 in the line, someone can and may take over who is lacking or deleted from the top.
Oh, so the Cambridges might not be able to manage it all, if the rest of the working BRF retired, and might, just might, have to recruit others to help? Well wonders will never cease! I thought they were superhuman!
Oh, and retiring from active duties in the BRF doesn't mean losing one's line in the succession.
That is a good point, the Queen is still Queen despite semi retiring...handing out, Harry won't be King, but he may be doing duties now, for his father, then brother.
Times are changing. We will wait and see how King Charles will handle his Kingdom.

In BRF weddings there isn't a ring bearer of any kind apart from the best man/supporter, who has the ring in his pocket and hands it over to the groom at the appropriate moment.

Don't worry DL she is marrying Harry not you
Looked to me like she was pushing her way in, maybe shes just used to non royal/hollywood situations where she goes first, where most communication is non verbal its telling about their dynamic. More and more smoke is smouldering that princess pushy is a thing, I hope its not, I want Harry to be happy and not get taken for a ride when he becomes "off brand" as one of the recent articles talked about.

I don't recall. I do remember that NBC was the network I watched and they later hired Charles Spencer as a commentator for a limited time period.
I think CBS would have covered the wedding in 2011. They're certainly going to do so for this wedding, along with NBC, beginning at 4am. I presume ABC will be on board too.

@sandy. I always recall NBC handling those events. However I do know that Fox News covered Edward's and Sophie's wedding. (Most video clips that I've posted from that event were from Fox.)
@Curryong_I'd be surprised if it was all three of the major networks. Typically I believe that it is just one or two of them at the event with the others showing feed during news segments.
However since I am batting 0-3 tonight on royal topics, I will probably be proven wrong. :lol:
That is probably so, TLLK, with crossovers etc at appropriate moments. I do think Fox might join in a bit. However, that link I posted had CBS plans and NBC I think. What might make a bit of a difference, extra interest this time with these networks is that an American is marrying into the BRF.
I said it, she invited people she has met once or twice, influencers, it's a celeb wedding. Her uncles,
, Markle and Ragland whom helped her in life, diplomatic temp job and the bishop, and whom not spoken to press weren't invited.
On another note Anne and her husband was taken the seat next to William at the Queens bday, HM ERII was flanked by Charles and William. I understand Prince Harry is quite upset about the seating arrangement. Oh dear.
We don't know how many times in the past twenty years Meghan has seen her Bishop uncle, an eccentric apparently, who is the self appointed head of a tiny 'church'. Nor do we know how many times Meghan and her uncle Michael have met since she was at university.
The vet who treated her dog's legs has probably become a friend if the treatment to Guy lasted months. Plus, we do not know whether people like Serena Williams are coming. It's all speculation by a newspaper as to which celebrities are guests. As for the Beckhams, they went to William's wedding and he and Harry both know them well.
Why would Harry be upset about the seating arrangements, which were very informal? (Edward, for example, who outranks Anne, sat at the back.) Spoken to Harry personally, have you?
On the internet I noticed that people who didn't like Harry and Meghan were gloating and rejoicing that he and Meghan were in the second row, and you have just proved my point!
He can't have been in that much bad odour with is grandmother as he (as newly appointed Head of the Commonwealth Trust) was one of only two people beside the POW who were called on stage to give speeches on the Queen, his grandmother's birthday. He may well have sat there so as to be able to slip out to make his speech.

I heard nothing about his being "upset." He's getting married to the woman he loves and wants. And she's marrying him the man she loves. He is over the moon IMO. ANd so is she.
It's a Royal Wedding. Not a celebrity wedding. How many celebrity weddings feature the entire royal family attending it?
There's a pic of Harry looking at Anne, not exactly a smiley smiling. Edward gave his seat to his daughter, the rest of the family are in place at the Royal box in the theatre.
I find it strange that family that helped her and who have not spoken to the media are not invited as well. So left side will be interesting.
I notice that interpretations are made by how Harry "Feels" by a single photograph. Harry is going to be front and Center with his bride in less than a month. WHy would Harry have to grin sappily at Anne to show he is happy. Then he'd be criticized. The man can't win with some.
I don't know who's invited but whoever they are, Meghan will still get bashed by her detractors.
The press surely will be reporting who is who left side, perhaps it is detracting.
The whole picture of the seating last night was that, H&M seated where Anne and husband should have been, whilst Edward gave his seat to his daughter, and took his daughter's seat third row.

Thank you @Trudie. I recall watching NBC in 1981 too as well as in 1986 for Andrew and Sarah's wedding. I do remember watching a little bit of Princess Anne's wedding but would have no idea which network was covering it then.
I saw Princess Annes wedding while in social studies in middle school I still remember my teacher having a crush on Charles but again I don't know what network broadcast it.
^^^
@Trudie-I was in elementary school when Anne's wedding took place and my mother insisted that my sister and I watch as much of the telecast as possible.I Consequently this did make us tardy for the day. Unfortunately my mother sent us off to school without a note explaining our tardiness. Our explanation that we were watching a Protestant British Princess Anne getting married was not well received by our principal Sr. Una who was a nun from Ireland. :hehe:
Sr. Una should have looked on the bright side, TLLK, you both could have had the whole day off in Anne's honour.
My poor mother was likely torn between being an Anglophile and having all three kids out of the house for six hours. :lol:

The press surely will be reporting who is who left side, perhaps it is detracting.
The whole picture of the seating last night was that, H&M seated where Anne and husband should have been, whilst Edward gave his seat to his daughter, and took his daughter's seat third row.
The seating arrangements were probably worked out ahead of time. Why wouldn't the Queen want her only daughter near her? I don't see any problem with it for Harry.

On another note Anne and her husband was taken the seat next to William at the Queens bday, HM ERII was flanked by Charles and William. I understand Prince Harry is quite upset about the seating arrangement. Oh dear.
Harry and Meghan should not get upset (I actually think it was just one photograph). They will be on the second row for most of their life in the royal family. The high point of them is when Charles is King and Harry is a King's younger son. After that they will go the way of the likes of Princess Margaret and Prince Andrew. In all probability their children will have to find work and not be full time members of the BRF. Anne is the queen's only daughter and second child so occasionally she will be seated close to her mother. No snub IMO. Besides Meghan and Harry have a very long way to go before they can reach Anne's workload and contribution to the institution.
That is why all that fanciful speculation about Meghan "changing" the BRF is in my view misplaced. She will be a relatively minor member of the family and it would cause outrage if she attempted to "change" the institution. As far as consorts are concerned, she will always have to defer to Camilla and Catherine. Her diary will largely be dictated by the wishes of the presiding monarch. There will be no room for her to be "the new Diana". If she tries to force things, she will get the shock of her life. If that family managed to neutralize and silence her future mother-in-law, Meghan will be mincemeat for them if she becomes too revolutionary. Better to wait to be asked and be pleasant to everybody in the family.
Of course Harry and Meghan weren't upset by the seating arrangements at the concert. Meghan has never ever said that she wants to change the BRF. That's tabloid talk. She hasn't said a word.
And Harry will be a King's son, one of only two. After that he will be King William's only sibling. (Andrew is one of four.) And following that, if there is still a monarchy, Harry will be the only Royal uncle of King George.
We don't know how many of William's children will go into public life/perform royal duties. It could be that Charlotte and baby number three won't wish to. William and Harry are very close as brothers. In the next reign, under Charles's slimmed down monarchy, Harry and Meghan will be needed. George may not go into full time royal duties for the next quarter of a century. And a King's only other son and an only brother are never minor royals. Meghan will take Harry's status.
I think George and Charlotte (who eventually IMO will be Princess Royal) will participate. The younger one (or others if t hey have more) won't. IMO anyway.,

One poster thinks Harry "looked" upset. Why would he be upset?
Charles and Camilla are not King and Queen consort yet. So Meghan will defer to Her Majesty. Meghan is being criticized for something she never publicly said. I doubt she'll "defer" to Kate, until Kate down the road becomes Queen Consort. I doubt Kate would expect Meghan to curtsy to her or "defer" to her at this stage.
Meghan is not even married to Harry yet? Why do you think she would "force things.? I hope she has a good work ethic.
Some details have emerged of the music that will be played at the wedding, including the soloists. There will be a gospel choir. A young cellist was rung by Meghan herself. There will also be some baroque music played by the orchestra. Sounds like Charles has taken a keen interest!

The royals don't throw confetti, (it's not allowed near St George's, and most UK churches frown on the practice anyway nowadays, too much mess) there is no doubt at all IMO that a deal has been done with the caterers chosen about the price of the food served, and I do not believe that any of the performers at the wedding ceremony or reception would charge full fees.

"I would expect nanny Maria Borrallo or Carole Middleton to be on hand to look after Prince Louis while they are in St George?s Chapel. But as he will be less than a month old, I?m sure Kate will want him nearby, even if we don?t see him at the service."
I doubt it. I think his first public appearance after the birth will be the Christening. Is Carole invited to the wedding?

I'm always surprised that someone writes these articles. The BRF do not typically have infants at weddings. Actually having the wedding at WC does make it easier for mother and newborn to be closer to each other.
Did Prince Harry officially have to ask Prince William to be his supporter?
Well according to Harry: "I got down on one knee," which I could see happening between these two. :hehe:
As to officially, I don't believe that an equerry was sent to convey the request.

Would Prince Harry and Meghan light a unity candle?
Unity Candle Ceremony - YouTube (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0kExXAVvVaE)
The Queen had several semi-disasters happen to her on her wedding day. Some part of her tiara snapped and was subject to instant repairs by the Royal jeweller who was on hand. A footman shoved the bouquet of flowers into a cupboard to keep the blooms fresh and nobody could find it for a long time, and Elizabeth forgot her necklace of the inevitable pearls. An aide had to rush back to BP to get them. Apparently he was so frantic that he grabbed the nearest car. A man who was getting out (at the Abbey) happened to be the King of Norway, and he good naturedly said to him something like 'Young man, you are welcome to the car but allow me to get out of it first!' Anyway, Princess Elizabeth got her pearls.

I very much doubt it. Unity Candles aren't part of the Anglican tradition. And it's more an American custom than a British one anyway. Meghan is American but her wedding ceremony will follow the Anglican ceremony and Royal wedding custom.

No. That is not part of a Church of England service.
Unity candle - Wikipedia (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unity_candle)
QuoteWhile the use of unity candles has become widespread, it is prohibited in some churches.[citation needed] It is not part of the Catholic or Anglican wedding ceremonies, and many parishes do not allow its inclusion in the ceremony. While the US Conference of Catholic Bishops has not explicitly prohibited the use of the unity candle in the marriage rite, neither has it encouraged the practice.
British Royal Family wouldn?t allowed have lit the candle during ceremony its very strict!! But in American allowed lit candle during religious but I?m respectful British Royal Family says NO include
Lit candle,confetti and mores.
Meghan will learn in Royal Family
We don't know that Meghan has ever asked for a Unity Candle for this wedding, inquired about having one, expected one or even thought about one. As far as we know she didn't have one for her first wedding.
As for Meghan learning about things to do with Royal weddings, she has been instructed and mentored by the head prelate of the Church of England, the Archbishop of Canterbury, and has been baptised and confirmed into the Church of England.
As well as that there were reports that Harry and Meghan have been seen around St George's in the last couple of weeks. Afterwards, it was said, they have had tea/dinner with the Dean of Westminster who is in charge of the Chapel. I'd say that if Meghan doesn't know by now what goes on at Royal weddings in Anglican Churches she would have to be extraordinarily stupid. As she isn't stupid, I'd say she knows!
From all accounts Meghans father is Episcopalian the American Anglican Church and part of the COE. As a member myself there is no lighting of a unity candle and I am sure Meghan is aware of this. Most Expats join the church here and in my own church it was more British than American and all the traditions upheld.

According to Sky News the carriage that will be used at Windsor on Harry/Meghan's wedding day has been unveiled.
The couple personally chose this one.

Yea!! My hunch was correct that this would be the open carriage used if the weather is clear and sunny. Edward and Sophie used the same landau for their carriage procession. I thought that there would be an enclosed one available for the couple if it rained, but I wasn't sure which of the smaller, maneuverable ones would be used.
The Windsor Greys are beautiful and I hope that the weather cooperates so that they can use the Ascot Landau. :)
The BBC has wavered license fees for their live showing, hence I will be watching through this state channel from the DIRECTV grid, which includes 2 BBC channels.

'Not too late' Meghan Markle's half-brother urges Prince Harry to CANCEL Royal Wedding
Royal wedding: Meghan Markle half-brother tells Prince Harry not too late to scrap wedding | Royal | News | Express.co.uk (https://www.express.co.uk/news/royal/954469/royal-wedding-meghan-markle-prince-harry-thomas-markle-jr)
Tom Markle Jnr's letter would have been effective (if that's the way he feels) if he hadn't lavished a lot of praise on Meghan when the couple were dating and if, only a fortnight ago, he hadn't given an interview saying he was looking forward to being an uncle to Meghan's children when she has them.
Both he and Samantha change on the spin of a dime, and it's obvious that their main grievance is no wedding invitation in spite of the fact that neither of them has seen her for years. And if he's talking family estrangement perhaps he could explain why his two grown sons no longer bear the surname Markle.
:lol:And didn't this same id*ot tell Harry to put a ring on it when he found out they were dating .......and in another hand he wants Harry to not marry Maghan why......give me a break........there is only one thing driving him and his insane sister now..............since there is no wedding invite for sure and they know this, so why not jump the *money train*........easy pickings for the media will pay them for any trash they can dig up on Meghan. The name of the game that the Markles play now is money, who is going to pay them for trash talking Meghan, bet they have every tabloid, media reporters, news papers on speed dial and they keep them in contact daily for trashing Meghan and Harry..........*get rich quick money scheme* and Meghan is their *cash cow* now.....
The way I see it they accuse Meghan of not helping pay their fathers debts nor helping them so with the money being paid to trash talk her they should help their father. He is probably mad that the lost invitation in the mail is not going to be sold by him on ebay.
Tom Jr is making a darn fool of himself. Too bad the Meghan bashers on the DM try to justify what he is doing.
^^^I wouldn't put too much stock into what a group of people on the DM comment section, social media or a "gossipy" forum say
@sandy Harry's made his decision and IMO the Windsors have been solidly behind that decision.
Apparently Samantha has gone to war with her sibling, attacking him online. These two are just ridiculous!
In the meantime, as another example of what Meghan has to put up with, the National Enquirer is reposting Twitter and Tumblr gossip, without foundation as this article points out.
Meghan Markle Had "Secret First Husband"? (https://www.gossipcop.com/meghan-markle-secret-first-husband-annulment-not-true/)
Tumblr Meghan bashers have been spreading this story around for a while now.
I am sure Harry knew all this, hence the family she never had comment. Perhaps though, since he is pist off with the press pack, he did not expect so much baggage from his other half.
Baggage? Really? The Baggage comes from the gossips on Tumblr IMO. He's finding out how obnoxious her 1/2 siblings really are.
The press did not set up Tumblr some Meghan bashers did. The tabs cherry pick stories from Tumblr.
I think Harry knew all about her. And I would be annoyed at the Tumblr people rather than Meghan.
Meghan was married once and divorced and lived with someone. She is not a stripper or call girl or escort and never was. There is no extra husband. All this spread on Tumblr.
I think the Meghan bashers don't like Harry himself and trash him holding up Kate and William as "ideals," trash Meghan and want some blonde like Cressida to have married him even though Harry and Cressida broke up, just plain don't think Meghan is Good Enough for "their" Harry. Liked fans enraged that a film star (that they have posters of) is getting married.
Quote from: wannable on May 03, 2018, 02:36:40 PM
The baggage Im referring to are the articles mentioned in the Cold Shoulder thread, it has nothing to do with the 00.01 % of the tumblr or twitter, but massive media outlets that have carried out articles of Who, What etc. of Meghan's past. According to that article, Harry is mad at the press pack.
I doubt he expected so much negativity and trashing from the press.
Harry loves Meghan and his family has accepted her. Not all the "press" trashes her. The "shady" stories did come from the Tumblr people who put out stories that she and harry "broke up" in 2016. And some believed the stories.
Meghan has no "red flags." If she did the Queen would not have allowed the marriage. The royals have their own red flags or some of them do. SOME of the family have red flags. Samantha was vicious about her ex stepmother. So they don't just attack Meghan.
Quote from: sandy on May 03, 2018, 04:38:29 PM
For me it didn't.
Kate has her dysfunctional Uncle Gary who got in trouble with the law. Sophie's company was in trouble and the Queen had to bail her out. Charles married Camilla, the ex mistress and other woman in his marriage. Prince Andrew has shady connections. Prince Philip's sisters were married to Nazis. And much much more.
So why is Meghan singled out.
Honestly Meghan is not being "singled out" as most knowledgeable royal watchers are aware of Harry's, Kate's, Sophie's, Charles', Andrew's, Phillip's, Anne's etc... own mistakes or those embarrassing episodes which were committed by their family members. It's just that Meghan is now the person in the spotlight because of her upcoming wedding. :shrug: Everything that you've mentioned
@sandy was covered by the tabloids years ago and are even remarked upon today. Eventually someone else will take that "spotlight" off Meghan.
I'm sure it's correct TLLK, that Sofia, the Duchess of Windsor, Leti, Maxima etc had nasty stories printed or said about them. However, with the exception of Sofia, most had the benefit of marrying and settling down before Twitter and Tumblr became so prolific.
There are at least a dozen Tumblr sites dedicated to attacking Meghan's morals, character and background daily in the most salacious terms they can find. Their hatred of Meghan is palpable. It leaps from their screens. Then Twitter, which has hundreds of thousands of followers on it each day from all over the world, desseminates the filth and discusses it all over again. And it happens daily.
It's that which makes Meghan's case different from all the rest, the growth of Twitter and Tumblr sites in the past five or six years. And it's very very different to a criticism in a forum or newspaper.
Do you think Meghan's wedding dress will have cap sleeves?

While I do agree
@Curryong that social media sites ie Tumblr are a relatively new way to either praise, or viciously criticize or attack a public figure, I can't agree with the statement that Meghan is "singled out" for attacks.
It is unfortunate that she is having to face this now but I do believe that in the months and years to come that the "appeal" to attack her will wear off. Eventually only the truly bizarre and zealous critics will be a small group.
If anyone should know this it would be Camilla who obviously has her vocal critics, but it's nothing compared to what she faced in the past.

If anyone should know this it would be Camilla who obviously has her vocal critics, but it's nothing compared to what she faced in the past.
I distinctly remember suggesting here that Camilla would be a very good role model and confidant for Meghan. Then some bright spark started complaining that no she would not. Apparently since she was not the "other woman" and her divorce did not involve children and since her husband was "in love with her"; there was nothing she could learn from Camilla. Indeed, someone here also selected a few rather unfortunate pictures which seemed to show Meghan snubbing Camilla at Church (btw I don't believe she was).
Meghan would do very well to learn from Camilla. She apparently has ambitions of being the "new Diana" but if she gets there, it might not end well for her. You need patience, a thick skin, discretion and a good sense of humor to survive as a member of the BRF. Some people make it their life mission to criticize everything you do and reiterate all the mistakes you are accused of making in the past. A wedding or birth of a child is not enough to stop their negativity. You just ignore them and do your job which is primarily to support your husband (not to change or reform the monarchy).
BTW if you are one of those that have been incessantly criticizing Camilla for the last 30 years, you have absolutely no moral right to complain when to criticize Meghan. You will just have to put up I am afraid, something that many of us who are Camilla fans have learnt the hard way. :teehee: :lol:

:windsor1:
Is this a joke or for real? Surely we don't have a groomzilla and bridezilla on our hands??? :lol: :teehee: Even I have to admit the coverage of this royal wedding is hitting depths I never thought possible. :cry: :eyes:
For real.
Sadly it seems these people did not do their maths: 1. early dawn transportation home/airport/home 2. airport/windsor/airport 3. airfare 4. food and beverage 5. emergency money just in case a sleep over, etc. All this read by real selected people in twitter. I do hope their organizations and families may help them with the expenses. Clearly they all were selected because they want to be in the Windsor Round About in front of the St. Georges Chapel.
Times are hard if the queen of England (I know that now it is the UK) cannot afford to feed and entertain guests at her grandson's wedding. Why invite them if you can't look after them? Perhaps a small wedding with a few wealthy friends might have been in order?
It's exactly the same arrangements per refreshments that was made at Sophie and Edward's wedding. They didn't have burger and doughnut stands on the Long Walk. And KP have apparently stated that light snacks and refreshments will be available at the castle.
To be fair with both the Guardian and the Express; the twitter real people who have been invited and are complaining have not received or to date have been returned with concrete confirmed information of snacks provided by the Monarchy or Government. This information request is for these people as they have explained to fill out forms to their organization requesting the moneys for the trip. Some are out of the requesting money period...like any serious organization advanced planning for expenses needs to be allocated 1 month prior, so come April 19, complaints started to spring.
Official details with reference to the wedding of Harry and Meghan on May 19th, issued by KP after a Press briefing at the palace this morning.
Doria will accompany her daughter to the Chapel by car. Tom Markle, Meghan's father, will walk her down the aisle. Further details about the Instrument of Consent, bridal party, progress of cake and other arrangements to follow in due course.
So much for Tom Markle Jnr whining that his father wasn't invited! Dad obviously didn't want to say anything to his two older children (from whom he may well be estranged.)

Sam and Tom Jr are the ones who run to the media. Yet Meghan is bashed? Go figure.

Yes I would expect that there would be items for sale as people would need something to eat/drink during the day. However the one thing that surprises me is that people are allowed to bring items. IMHO the first thing I thought of was security. Yes I do realize that everyone invited to the be on the Long Walk have been screened but allowing people to bring their own food/beverage containers seems like it could be a security risk. Especially in the light of the increased acid attacks in the UK. (Maybe I've just done too much airport travel in recent years, because the only liquids that can be brought on a plane must be purchased once you're past security.)
QuoteI distinctly remember suggesting here that Camilla would be a very good role model and confidant for Meghan.
I do agree that Camilla who has endured and continues to face criticism for her past will be someone who can offer advice to her step-daughter-in-law on how to cope with the slings and arrows in private and in public. :nod: If anything she can explain that there will be some who will never accept you, but to try and focus doing your best as a representative of HM.
Both Prince Charles and Camilla will be acting as surrogate parents to Meghan, as Doria and Tom live very far away. The face to face presence is important too. They already helped by being physically present during her Baptism/Confirmation. Meghan does not have what Kate has, whenever she feels like visiting her parents in Berks.
Meghan's exes have never spoken to journalists about her and in fact Corey and his mother were nice.
I was actually feeling great about some of the details of this wedding being released today. The fact that the RF will be very hospitable to Meghan's parents as to ask them to stay at the Castle overnight after the wedding, for instance, is lovely, I think, as is the projected reading at the ceremony by Jane Fellowes.
But no, we have to have negativity and nastiness about the future bride's character, about her past life, about the catering arrangements at the castle, slurs about people only being invited as a rent a crowd, etc etc.
Is this going to continue during the wedding day one might ask, the constant digs and criticism, I mean?
If it does, and I'm sure it will, thank God I shall be elsewhere, with people who are happy these two people who are in love and getting married, and think it's great that those around them are enjoying the ceremony and the whole atmosphere!

There are more than enough interviews of Kins, ex friends, ex boyfriend and ex husband close friends to understand the case studies of dysfunctionality in broken families.
The ex husband and ex boyfriend have not spoken out. Her fake friend did and her bitter half siblings.
There can also be dyfunction (Big Time) in non broken families.

I agree that the PoW and DoC as well as the Queen/DoE and the Cambridges can advise Charles' newest daughter-in-law on what to expect regarding British life/culture, royal protocol, dealing with the media and being a part of the extended Windsor family. As to any unfavorable press (which is part and parcel of being a royal) who else can best explain how to cope but the people who have to deal with it. :shrug:
Meghan is an intelligent woman who undoubtedly understands that those who actually are part of the BRF are the experts as they live the life 24/7. :thumbsup:

That what I?m mention on post before baby Louis too young attend till christening
QuoteHELLO!'s royal correspondent, Emily Nash, had previously said that it would make sense for Prince Louis to stay at home with the children's nanny Maria Borrallo, or even with grandmother Carole Middleton. "William and Kate will both be busy on the wedding day, as he carries out his best man duties and she oversees George and Charlotte?s involvement in the ceremony," said Emily. "I would expect nanny Maria Borrallo or Carole Middleton to be on hand to look after Prince Louis while they are in St George?s Chapel. But as he will be less than a month old, I?m sure Kate will want him nearby, even if we don?t see him at the service."

That's a no brainer. Why would an infant be brought to a wedding?
No, if Louis needed feeding and screamed throughout the ceremony it would not be a good look!

The real question is Prince Phillip if he will be sufficiently recovered or not.
There is a lot of difference with face to face, rather than social media communication.
The negative comments are as it is versus what Harry and Meghan could have should have done to lessen such situations. As I have read from psychologists; Harry by actually having visited Tom or pay for Tom to come pre or immediate post engagement and Humanitarians who have suggested She writing personal letters to estranged family members. It doesn't matter if they would sell the letters in ebay or whatever. It will just give her so many points and the utmost Lady Upper Hand of who She is. Unfortunately none of this happened, hence what we see is what we get. The interviews of so many people of her past is the dysfunction she acquired .
I think Prince Philip will go. I can only imagine the Meghan bashers feasting on that saying he was just "making excuses" not to go.
It is a form of communication in this day and age. And grandparents for instance can skype grandchildren in other states or countries.
Harry and Meghan lessened the situation by not dignifying Tom JR and Samantha's bashing with any sort of "retaliation."

Quote from: wannable on May 04, 2018, 03:31:18 PM
@Curryong all incoming brides to royal families have been criticized pre and post wedding.
I did read and was curious with broken families and dysfunctional just recently as of January due to H&M engagement announcement and the amount of articles with interviews and book writing and what came out of it. I am more understanding of Meghan's behavior because as I said her normal upbringing and surrounding was highly dysfunctional and she repeated it as an adult. I believe Harry's comment of the Family She Never Had will help her. All the broken will not be there, compare and contrast how both William and Kate invited their friends and exes tells a tale of the psychologists and humanitarians of what to do, hence my previous comments. I am sorry that Meghan did not receive the help previous to departing LA to Toronto as things may have been different.
@sandy officials at KP have notified the press pack that depending PP's recovery conditions he may or may not be there, this has nothing to do with antimeghanites, hence my comment on the real question is if he will make it to the wedding rather than baby Louis who will be with his nanny so both parents may assist to H&M wedding.
In reference to forms of communication with parents, family and friends....there will always be a difference from social media and lets meet face to face.
The point is not Retaliation, the point is She has a history of ridding people, because of her dysfunctional upbringing and carrying out what she was brought up with, if she had the needed help, she would have written the personal letters and have the Ladylike Upper Hand.
Not the way Meghan has! With all the nasty talk of the fictional "extra" husband and the calling her an "escort" (or worse).
She has a mother and father who are going to the wedding. She has parents.
You have not met Meghan nor have any license to practice psychiatry so you don't treat patients. You are just projecting your dislike of her. Some people from "happy and close" families have become terrorists. So much for the theory that the messed up ones are always from dysfunctional families.
She has the "ladylike" upper hand because she did not dignify the bashing with a response.
QuoteYou are just projecting your dislike of her.
@sandy-Very true and all of the royal brides and to some degree the royal grooms have had to deal with people who "project their dislike" on to Mary, Maxima, Camilla, Kate, Diana, etc...even Eugenie's Jack is dealing with this as people claim their affection for each other is "fake." Public figures can't fight a constant battle against those who will steadfastly hold on to bitter feelings.
It would be a waste of time and energy to try and reason with small minded individuals. Meghan's best advice from her Windsor in-laws would be to focus upon being the best representative for her new country, her future patronages and her new family members. :)
QuoteThe real question is Prince Phillip if he will be sufficiently recovered or not.
@wannable-I believe that those medical professionals who performed the surgery and are providing rehab chose an optimal time frame for Prince Phillip to recover. That being said, this is a man in his nineties so hopefully he's going to be well enough to be present.
QuoteI wasn't talking about incessant negative comments elsewhere when I spoke about ongoing criticism and digs on and on about Meghan, exes, about caterers, catering for people outside the castle etc when I posted before but about the constant negativity about Meghan and about the coming wedding by a particular poster here, on Royal Insight.
As a long time member of various royal forums, yes some of these comments are going to continue because on an online discussion forum you'll have critics and fans. :) Even royal weddings dating back 30, 20, 10, 5 years still have posters who will make negative comments about bouquets, guests' wardrobes, ceremonies etc.. CP Frederik and Mary Donaldson's wedding still is in regular discussion on one particular site. Compared to the "dishiest" and "most gossipy" forums, nothing that is posted here truly compares to the volume of negative comments made on those sites.
We are 6, 3 brothers and 3 sisters, the eldest sister is a psychologists. The fact that in the real world Meghan Markle fawned toadied to a real person (Ivanna) and later trashed the father (Donald) publicly and notoriously, plus the pattern of ridding people in her life. Plus reading case studies of broken family and dysfunctional levels, which equated to all being affected with a result of being DISLOYAL, all of the Markle family, including Meghan and her father Tom. The dysfunction of lying to his family that he was not invited, imagine the level of dysfunction they ALL have.
Her normal dysfunction upbringing, she did not see it wrong to trash, it did not cross her mind before hitting send.
Did your eldest sister treat Meghan? I thought not.
You can't diagnose someone because your sister (who never diagnosed or even met Meghan) is a psychologist.
A lot of people criticize Trump.
What "pattern" of ridding people? She moved to Canada, she has loyal friends not the fake ones who want to make money by deriding her. There are many who have unsuccessful first marriages and stay married to the second one for life. So you accuse them of ridding people if they get a divorce from the first husband?
Everybody faces dysfunction. The only perfect families are the fictional ones on the sitcoms. There is such a thing as real life.
The level of dysfunction with Meghan and her family is public and notorious. We would not have the amount of soap opera, interviews or people saying the same pattern of MM ways.
The fact that your sister is a psychologist does not make you one. And similarly reading cases about disfunctional families does not make you an expert in them.
I have a cousin who is a neurosurgeon. That does not qualify me, a retired social worker (with decades of experience in dealing with damaged families, I might add,) to ring him up one day and offer to help with his operations because I have a few books on the subject of diseases of the brain.
And I ask again. as you are so interested in people dropping their friends, relatives and others, why don't you write to Carole Middleton, who has experience in such matters?
By the way, there have been persistent rumours for years that Carole and Mike Middleton lead separate lives and she lives mostly at KP now. So perhaps the Middleton clan aren't the perfect tight unit they've always been touted as being.
I did not ring her, my sister only needs to read and there is a clear pattern from Meghan and her family all included. Now if MM fans wish to ignore the multiple and the amount of people whom have been interviewed where there is a clear pattern, go ahead its your prerogative. A pattern is established when there is more than a number of people or items versus 1.
A neurosurgeon would need to read (in this case lab, blood, xray, etc) to give his/her opinion, and to you too whoever rings who.
Meghan was not treated as a patient by your sister. If she "diagnoses" Meghan to you that is unprofessional of her. It's amazing the "power" your sister has to give a diagnosis of Meghan to you over the phone having never met Meghan. I guess reading Tumblr gossip is a new way for psychologists to diagnose people.

The level of so called dysfunction comes from the gossipy Tumblr Accounts that regularly bash Meghan. And they are so "accurate" that they claimed that Meghan and Harry broke up and some pictures of them together were "fake." So much for accuracy.
The ones that come forward want to trash Meghan for $$$$.

Who told you Tom Sr. lied to his family that he wasn't invited?. The man lives in Mexico and is reclusive. Tom Sr, most likely has followed all the garbage his family is spewing and said nothing since there would be Meghan bashing either way. I wonder when the last time any of his brother's visited him? I wonder when Tom Jr, or Samantha or his grandsons visited? As I said Meghan was the only child of the divorce of Tom and Doria and living primarily with Doria and seeing her father I doubt she saw the rest of the family more than once a year or every couple of years.
It's not only Tom Jr, but Tom Sr. brother the Uncle, whom both said they spoke to Tom Sr who in turn said he did not know if he was invited or not, etc.
That is not normal, that is dysfunction. I said you said she said he said = Soap = Dysfunction. A contained unity family, the type of soap opera tripe of he said she said does not happen, same goes with her previous friends, until she rid them at 31 Suits.
This he said she said sounds like a game of telephone. The TUmblr Folks are dysfunctional and will get more so when the wedding goes through. But they can giggle over all the "bad things" they see about MEghan.
Im not on to giggling, hence I am seriously calling it as it is and explaining the dysfunctionality of her childhood and she carried it on during adulthood.
On the other hand, there is no reason to blame the commentators of Meghan family and ex friends and friends of the exes for the he said, she said, and through this clearly see that there is a pattern of dysfunction, disloyalty and all what I've commented.
I didn't say you were.
I see more dysfunction in the intense loathing of the Tumblr folk.
There is EVERY reason to blame the commentators when they make up stories. And listen to her fake friend and siblings. The ex husband and ex wife are the only ones in the "know" not the outsiders. That should be a given.
The interviews of ex family, ex friends, friends of the ex hubbies are in mass media outlets. It is not a case of one person, but a number of people interviewed, hence there is an existing pattern.
They are linked to tumblr for those tumblr users to comment as well as we do too in the likes of forums, blogs or article comment sections.
The radicals of tumblr you keep on mentioning because they go the extra of discussing made up stuff is not my thing.
SOME mass media outlets like the DM who listens to the rantings of the bitter half siblings and false friend.
The tabs extract "juicy" gossip from Tumblr Know Fact.
You say the same thing those "radicals" say on Tumblr.

Doesn't it occur to you that Tom Snr may have put his brother and son off by prevaricating about whether he was being invited or not in order to stop Tom Jnr and others ringing him up and whining about their own situation in not being invited? He may have said he wasn't in order to keep the peace, mainly because his son is a drunk and a domestic abuser and his daughter Samantha is a liar and fantasist who enjoys alternately trashing her sister and praising her. They've both earned money off a half sister they've hardly seen for years and yet abuse because she hasn't invited them to her wedding.
Meghan is better off without such people. She has her mother at her wedding, her father, her niece may be there. The others she can forget about. They are not worth her energy.

Hence my saying they have a dysfunctional problem. When people have to recur to the above as you put it, they have a problem, the one who has to run with lying or playing games of I don't know, and the toxic, all together. I include MM, the ways which has been explained (* by the people interviewed, where there is a pattern) of ridding people in her life is the toxic dysfunction she was brought up with. That is all I'm trying to explain and why I understand whats going on with her and family.
I think the "ridding people" charge originated from Tumblr and is much exaggerated.
The ridding of people is explained by the people interviewed who were actually her family, friends and close friends of the exes, including a mother of one of the exes.
@sandy all Im saying is there is a pattern that is public and notorious, hence the dysfunction of the entire family victim or victimizers, all of them affected one way or another, hence they carried out what they each did to each other.
The "family" are Meghan's half sister and half brother who badmouth her for $$$. Her niece derided the two half siblings. As I said only the exes know what happened in the relationship and in all likelihood never will repeat. The "friend" trashed her. Loyal friends do not do such things.
Corey, the mother of one of the exes was very nice about Meghan. Corey and Trevor have never spoken about her, though Corey said she was a great girl.
The dynamics and goings on between Tom Snr and his two older children are between Tom Snr and them. It has nothing to do with Meghan.
The mother does not know when or why the broke up, Cory told the journalist let the bloggers and commentators discuss the breakup timing. That does not help MM, on the contrary, both mother and son are hiding something, rather than clearing they clouded.
Why would she? It just proves my point. The exes did not speak out about the whys. Cory does not sound like a good person letting gossips do the talking for him.. I think he helps Meghans case.
By accepting to be interviewed you clear a person or leave it clouded grey, the later speaks volumes tied to other interviewed people about MM ways, hence there is a pattern of MM being toxic herself, which I've explained its not entirely her fault as she grew up in such a dysfunctional family with no help (external or internal) whatsoever, like having the upper hand of despite being the victim by overcoming (writing a goodbye letter at a younger age is an example to overcome the I am running away from you forever because you are toxic, I do not want to be with you ever again because you bring me insecurities, and the sort) By way of public knowledge of the HE said SHE said of both family, ex friends, ex boyfriend and husband friends, I conclude what I've said.
William and Harry clearly received help and from a young age with dead mother included, or we'd be reading quite a lot of articles a la MM with ugly story break ups with family, friends, exes etc. which is not the case. Let's speak of Harry since he is getting married, by the fact that he INVITED Chelsy and Cressida there is no hard feelings of nastiness that went through and through until they broke up. There is no story of any lad friend or ex lad friend of Harry.
There is no pattern of Meghan being "toxic." The ones who think that just don't like her. Period.
Only the couple knows the inner workings of the relationship.
I don't agree that William and Harry "clearly" received help. Harry was left to his own devices at Highgrove while Charles was way someplace with Camilla. The boys clearly said they wished they had had more help (remember all those shows with them talking last Summer?
Cressida was not the most gracious with her odd Instagram message when she heard of the engagement and I think there were some hard feelings on her part. It is a "custom" to invite exes to royal weddings.

We have wait till may 19 she will wear new or recycled dress designer clothes after Louis born last April 23 we forward to see Kate appearance at wedding
Now that it is confirmed that Meghans father is indeed walking her down the aisle There will be more Markles spewing hate at Meghan and for What they didn't get invited Big deal. Oh you want dysfunctional
@wannable well My children were 18 and 15 when their father and his second wife had a child guess what My children who lived with their father for a time hardly see their half brother who is now 18. Even my son who lives close by doesn't see him and when he married 11 years ago the half brother was 8 going on 9 they would ask if my sons half brother could spend a night or take him on an outing the answer was always no. So you see Half siblings especially those with an age gap are not going to be close the siblings however do speak on the phone and facebook there is no jealousy or mean fights.

(Consider the source. :wink: While I do believe that Ralph and Russo could be a possible designer, I believe that we'll receive the final pieces of information closer to the wedding date.)
I believe the news that the designer of Kate's wedding dress was Sarah Burton was disclosed as Kate got out of the car at the Abbey on the day.
How Diana's ?9,000 'meringue' wedding dress (including its 25ft train) cost less than a tenth of Meghan's couture gown... but Miss Markle has got nothing on Kate's ?250,000 frock

Yes of course, the Fail knows the cost of every senior Royal bride's wedding gown back to Queen Victoria, and to the last penny too.
Now, having plucked those figures out of their imaginations for yet another of this rag's pointless articles, the paper's so-called journalists can go back to the pub, the horse racing pages, their three hour lunches, or whatever else they do in their spare time.
Heaven forbid that they should forego any of these sort of clickbait articles in favour of the NHS crisis, genocide in Yemen, or anything vaguely useful.
THe Fail forgets that since time immemorial royal bride dresses have not been seen by the public until the wedding day. It seems that the DM caters to the gullible with the fake news/click bait.

Diana's wedding was also almost 37 years ago and if they took the time to convert the cost with today they would see that the dress is likely around the same price range. Of course that doesn't fit their agenda.
KM's dress looked cheaply made for that price and the Madonna cone padding didn't help. :lol: :blink:

Thomas Sr. according to The Sun, Daily Mail was taking his measures, a Tuxedo Martinez employee said those measurements were to be sent inmediately to London.

Omid Scobbie, USA Weekly Mag, the same who has had more scoops and exclusives of MM is at lost with his latest Doria and Ophra. I think its high time Ophra and her team should directly notify the media that Doria never went to her house loaded with toys and no milking the cow will happen with an interview. Not saying anything is just worst.
QuoteThomas Sr. according to The Sun, Daily Mail was taking his measures, a Tuxedo Martinez employee said those measurements were to be sent inmediately to London. Possibly Thomas will be renting rather than purchasing.
I agree that unless Tom Sr. plans to attend future events in a morning suit, then it makes sense to rent his apparel. I'm sure that KP would be able to advise him which shops can provide him good selection and discreet service.
I recall the Doria story was denied by Oprah last week. Why would an interview with Doria get big ratings. Oprah would want an interview with Meghan and Harry to get the ratings.
Does it matter if Tom rents or buys the formal wear?
Would Meghan look lovely in one of these dresses?

100 Questions About the Royal Wedding Answered!
Royal Wedding Questions Answered | PEOPLE.com (http://people.com/royals/royal-wedding-questions-answered/)
Jewelry We Hope to See at the Royal Wedding ? Straight From Queen Elizabeth's Collection
Queen Elizabeth Jewelry Collection | PEOPLE.com (http://people.com/royals/queen-elizabeth-jewelry-collection/)
I don't know what this collection has to do with the Royal wedding. The Queen will be in hat and coat not tiara and gems, lol. I think she'll probably be wearing her inevitable pearl necklace, pearl stud earrings and a nice brooch. The rest of the guests won't exactly be encrusted with gems from the collection either.
Unless of course they're implying that Meghan will be wearing some of the Queen's major tiaras! I really do not like the Brazilian Aquamarine tiara. Of course it's worth a King's ransom but that centre stone could with advantage have been cut down by half, IMO. As it it this monstrous centre carbuncle rises up between two not particularly attractive gilt 'ears'. It just looks clunky, and aquamarines are such beautiful stones too.
^^^I so agree
@Curryong that QEII will wear her typical daytime jewelry. This is not a Scandinavian royal wedding that requests gala wear for the guests.
As for Meghan's wedding tiara, if she opts to wear one (which I believe that she will) it will likely be one that she's likely to wear at any future gala events ie: Diplomatic reception or state visit dinner. I believe that she's going to receive a permanent loan from the main collection like Camilla, Sophie, and Kate to wear during QEII's reign. I do not believe that she will be gifted a tiara to wear like Sarah Ferguson was in the 1980's.

I liked the article about the sprig of myrtle in the bridal bouquet. It is always nice to learn about flowers.
Yes, the myrtle is a strong tradition in the BRF and Scandi monarchies since it started and I hope it continues on into the generation who are children at the moment, in their turn.

Why would Harry take notice of Janet Street Porter, a raucous-voiced republican journalist who's attacked Meghan on a breakfast TV show before now, in taking her advice in the matter of his and his wife's titles? I noted Street Porter was prepared to bend her so- strong republican principles when it came to an MBE for herself, going to BP to receive it from the monarch! The woman's a hypocrite anyway, pontificating about marriage with her record.
Incidentally, I believe Serena Williams has pulled out of the Rome tennis tournament and so is a likely wedding guest on the 19th.

Yes, I can imagine that this particular narrative would appeal to persons who don't like Meghan.
Harry is marrying Meghan not (thank God) her family, including her pathetic half brother who wrote a begging for an invite letter yesterday after castigating and embarrassing her.
Tom Markle Snr is in Mexico of his own volition. No-one is forcing him to live there. He had a large lotto win in his past and could have bought himself a house in LA, or elsewhere in the US. If he chooses to overeat, sleep much of the time, drink beer and keep to himself, that is entirely his choice. Perhaps that's the way he wants to live.
His son, Tom Jnr, says his father is in receipt of a good pension. Friends have also said Meghan has helped him financially over the years.
And finally, why is the DM so interested in this man? Out of the goodness of their hearts? Interested in improving his quality of life? Not bloody likely! They continue with these stories about the Markles because it's the gift that keeps on giving in their campaign to throw as much shade as possible on Meghan. Well, people are already getting sick of their tactics. Samantha Markle especially has a terrible reputation. Enjoy your 15 minutes of fame, guys, because in future years you'll just be an occasional minor irritation!

This is not limited to Meghan. Uncle Gary assaulted his wife and got in trouble with the law. Philip's sisters married Nazis and had to be hidden out for a time so to avoid scandal for Princess Elizabeth's wedding to Philip.
Embarrassing relatives are everywhere.
First of all duch_luver her name is Meghan not Sparkle now that we have that out of the way. It is obvious Tom Jr. and Samantha are not interested in Meghan what they are interested in is attending a royal wedding with all the publicity that comes with it. Meghan is not what is making them money if they were to attend selling stories would. What they are looking for is a good party and fabulous food and drink on someone elses dime. It is also obvious Tom Sr. has not kept up with the antics of Tom Jr. and Samantha since he apparently used an internet cafe to read more about his daughters wedding. Samantha told the world her father authorized her to speak on his behalf that lie blew up in her face and I applaud Meghan for standing her ground and not giving in to these two losers she made a success of her life and is not responsible for the mess they made by their own poor choices including trashing her as soon as her relationship with Harry became public.
A guide to royal survival by Princess Diana?s private secretary | Daily Mail Online (http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-5719739/A-spiky-guide-royal-survival-Princess-Dianas-private-secretary.html)
"However, Sparkle (cause Trudie likes it so much LOL) should beware. Any suspicion that your public persona is not an honest reflection of your real personality will become obvious, sooner or later.
It's also wise to remember that hardly anyone, not even a trained actress, can keep up an act for ever."
I'd say its already too late, Patrick 'ol boy :lol:
Do we really see the royals' real personalities. I doubt it.
She's not SParkle she's Meghan. Sparkle was coined by the gossips on Tumblr.
THe royals are all actors when you get right down to it. Charles is now trying to play the "fun" codger, Camilla is supposed to be "compassionate" and William and Harry want to be "normal" ANd Kate wants to be "thrifty.
It's all a big scam.
Meghan is a trained actress. She has also been living with Harry day in and day out at Nott Cott since last November, six months. Plenty of opportunities to 'show one's true colours' in six months, I would say.
In that time she has also taken part in lots of public engagements of one sort or another, fun ones like the Queen's Birthday Concert, solemn ones like the Anzac Day services, and ones in support of causes and charities linked to Harry, like the IG training at Bath.
Not once has anybody who came into contact with Meghan on those occasions accused her of being insincere or thought she was game playing or vain, or anything of that sort. On the contrary. She's been praised for being interested, asking relevant questions, being genuinely nice to everyone.
Patrick Jephson doesn't know Meghan and, like practically everyone else periphal to this romance, is trying to make money or flog a book, in his case the latter.

How to celebrate the royal wedding like Prince Harry and Meghan Markle - TODAY.com (https://www.today.com/video/how-to-celebrate-the-royal-wedding-like-prince-harry-and-meghan-markle-1231825987824)
DOES ANYONE HERE THINK IT IS WAY TOO MUCH FOR PH, SECOND SON, BUT NOT HEIR AND MM AND HER BAGAGE?
I do. I think it should have been more like EdandSophie. Not televised. Even PC and C had a small, scaled down wedding. He is to be only the KiofE. With he and C divorced and all of their bagage and bodies and media left strewn about for the ages, it was more classy and fitting. It was more palpable fir the public to accept too.
Not too much Pres.
The economy, Brexit, MM, PH, all of it.
I think it is way too much. It is a funny show fir a second wedding of two adults in their mid 30s who are living together.
.
It seems Meghan does like a good show and this is her chance. However, I think the press has done enough damage to her "feminist princess" credentials that things will be a bit muted despite all the grand arrangements. Meghan is very vulnerable and she is now totally reliant on the total support of the BRF. Otherwise her enemies are going to eat her alive. Even her family is no real support it seems when it comes to this so she is one of those brides who is totally dependent on her in laws for emotional support.
It is not Harry's second wedding. It's his first, and for the most part this wedding and its organising has followed the Edward and Sophie template. Their wedding was also televised, they were also two adults in their thirties getting married, and they also had a carriage ride.
The media onslaught has been intense, partly because as a divorced and biracial American actress Meghan is something different to most BRF brides. However, there is also huge media interest (a) because this is the last 'big' Royal wedding until George's and Charlotte's, but also (b) Harry is popular with Britons in a way Edward never was.
In every opinion poll on the monarchy for years Harry has been in the top three with William and the Queen. He's either led or been second to his brother. In the last one taken only a few days ago. William had 72% popularity, Harry was just behind him at 71% followed by the Queen at 68%.
It would have been impossible at those levels for Charles and Diana's son to have had a quiet wedding with no media interest. Charles knew it, the Queen knew it and Harry knew it. The tabloids would have been in an uproar if he and Meghan had had a private wedding at BP or something with no opportunity for the public to see them.
Anyone would think, from the responses here that Harry and Meghan have constantly hogged the spotlight since their engagement. In fact they have been barely seen apart from the public engagements. When have they ever been seen out on a date in the last six months?
Judging by some people's reactions the couple have been constantly inviting the media into their lives, giving dozens of interviews, encouraging all the articles on Meghan.
And Meghan has never said she wanted to change the monarchy of become the new Diana. That's Press hype, but apparently some people can't tell the difference between a tabloid or magazine article and what someone has actually said, or not said in this case! And neither has said anything at all since their engagement interview!
And lastly, no-one is responsible for what their relatives do. What Tom Snr did was extremely stupid and a betrayal of trust. My feeling is that Meghan feels that blow more than anyone and her embarrassment is probably extreme.
However, Meghan is no more responsible for those staged photos of Tom's than Beatrice and Eugenie are for Andrew's friendship with a convicted pedophile or Fergie selling access to Andrew for money. She is no more responsible for Tom doing what he did than Kate is for her Uncle Gary punching his wife to the ground in the street, nor is Louise Wessex for Sophie's indiscretions when talking about her inlaws to a fake sheikh.
You do make interesting points
@Curryong as always :goodpost:. However, I must also highlight the possibility of "fatigue" by members of the public. I admit the hype got to me. The press do that: build you up and then pull you down. It all started with the "feminist princess" taking on the Windsors and ended up with the "Trashy charlatan who hooked Harry". Those are caricatures and they can start getting on people's nerves. That initial plea for tolerance by Harry did not help. Some people resent being told off by an over-privileged so and so who has never really known true hardship. I think Meghan may also have done too much too soon. She was so visible and attending events in an official capacity before the wedding...some people resent that. Plus remember that there are people in this world that just do not like anybody. In all this I am not discounting resentment of her nationality, previous profession, race, divorce status and politics.
If you weren't on Forums in 2011 though or were lurking around reading them you don't get a clear indication of the huge amount of interest there is when a high profile BRF wedding in in sight. Yes, people had eight years to adjust to Kate, but there was still an enormous number of articles in the Press and documentaries online and on TV, plus interest pieces in magazines and huge discussions about them all on forums like this one..
The controversies surrounding Meghan have whipped up more interest than would be normal for other BRF brides like Sophie for instance.
However, don't mistake what's occurred in 2018 for there being little overwrought hype attached to the William-Kate wedding in 2011, because there was a lot. In fact there was almost as much Press and TV excitement leading up to that wedding as there had been at the Charles/Diana nuptials in 1981.
Plus, Kate was also visible at several public engagements before her wedding and at social events with her fianc?, all of which was covered by the media. Meghan has done more engagements simply because as a foreigner it has been considered important that she get some idea of the different countries of the U.K., plus, with Harry's new Commonwealth role, some concept of that organisation in CHOGM week, and IMO, that is fair enough.
Those are all logical explanations but you must remember that human emotions are not always logical controllable things. If Meghan can hanker down and be the perfect princess, she might one day find herself a kind of Duchess of Kent figure...much beloved. Kate started off with some bad commentary but survived and is now a real anchor to William. What Meghan must absolutely avoid is the tempation to become the center of a pity party for a press commentary victim. It is never a good look when members of the most privileged club in the world portray themselves as victims.

QuoteIt is not Harry's second wedding. It's his first, and for the most part this wedding and its organising has followed the Edward and Sophie template. Their wedding was also televised, they were also two adults in their thirties getting married, and they also had a carriage ride.
Yes
@Curryong. Edward is the youngest son of a reigning monarch, so there was always going to be coverage and interest in his wedding. It was on a smaller scale than his siblings, but it had the requisite elements of a royal wedding.
Harry is the youngest son of a future reigning monarch, so his wedding was always going to be a high interest event.
Like Anne's, Andrew's, Edward's weddings, Harry's is not a state occasion however it will be on a grander scale than Peter, Zara's and most likely Eugenie's weddings. Like Peter and Zara, I do not expect a carriage ride through the streets of Windsor however the couple will probably use one to take to their reception site.

Instrument of Consent for the marriage of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle | Newmyroyals & Hollywood Fashion (http://www.newmyroyals.com/2018/05/instrument-of-consent-for-marriage-of.html)
We now know where the couple will stay the night before the wedding.
Harry- On the night before their wedding, Prince Harry and Ms. Meghan Markle will stay at separate hotels in the Windsor area.
Prince Harry will stay at the Dorchester Collection's Coworth Park. His Royal Highness will be joined by his Best Man, the Duke of Cambridge.
Meghan- Ms. Markle, accompanied by her mother, Ms. Doria Ragland, will stay at Cliveden House Hotel, on the National Trust's Cliveden Estate.
And Tom Markle Snr will be staying in the guardroom at Windsor Castle for the night, with a soldier from Harry's regiment guarding him and a minder from BP in an adjoining bed!
Incidentally, Samantha has come out and said the staged photos were her suggestion, with no money involved. She's a very deluded individual but I wouldn't be surprised if she really did think that was a good idea. It sounds like her.

Third rate treatment!? Sounds like first rate treatment.
The public perception depends on how much people loathe Meghan. The usual suspects will blame her.
Maybe just maybe her father does not want the lavish rooms. Making Meghan the villain of the piece again I see.

The classist undertone is not a surprise either. The mass media has brainwashed this into peoples minds.
Royals DO stay in expensive places and in-laws get housed pre wedding (except those like the Spencers).

Did he have a press conference, official statement? Or is it more fake news? He should donate the money to charity and come to the wedding and be done with it.
He's poor. If anyone needs to donate, it would be H&M to him, but they were more worried about themselves rather than problematic direct family members.
Meghan and Harry would not comment publicly about how much $$$$ they would give to Tom Sr. It's their business and it does not involve taxpayer money.
I find it disturbing the lengths the Daily Mail is going to destroy Meghan and her family. To be honest it wouldn't surprise me if Samantha did suggest this and then rang up the fail with the story for money. I really feel for Tom Sr.
Some ugly comments are coming out, and some DM people desperately want the wedding canceled.

It's never too late, take action now, give the man an excellent living accommodation.
If Tom Markle Sr. has indeed suffered a heart attack, then he needs to follow the orders of his cardiologist. The stress and strain of a trans-Atlantic flight along with the excitement of the upcoming wedding might be more than he can really take at this point in time.
If he's not going to attend, then I do believe we'll have an update from KP in the next 24-48 hours.
I do not know know where to post here. I guess.
I am really REALLY REALLY CHEERING FOR THIS GIRL.
Her half siblings , ugh. Horrible , low life?s.
She is not close to them.
Right thing was done to not ,BY NO MEANS, have those people there.
They sold her and would sell her out for inviting them and will do so for the rest of their lives until the day they, the half siblings, die. Literally.
MMs father had a heart attack. Timing is suspicious.
GOOD GOD, he sold his daughter out for monetary gain with TDM. Dummy. It was found out. Of course, TDM was more than happy, their right, to tell the other half of the story. The media is not a confidential. What a Dummy her father is.
Shameful.
I cannot cut and paste here, but someone pull up TDM.
The ex wife of zMMs half brother and her two adult sons are in London. Tee shirts on and shorts, mix matched. Hillbilly looking p w t. Just trash.
OMG!!
What dam n media paid all expenses , of course, to get these pieces of trash, there.
They will be doing commentary for some media outlet.
Okokok, I talk about some of here constantly posting about their opinions of C PC and D as facts, but I keep posting on MM.
I REALLY FEEL BAD FOR THIS GIRL. MM HAS A COUNTRY IN THEUK WHO HATES HER. SHE HAS MESSY DISTANT RELATIVES SHE IS NOT CLOSE TO TRYING AS MUCH FOR AS LONG BY ANY MEANS NESSCARY TO CASH IN ON HER.SHE HAS BLACK PEOPLE IN THE USA WHO HATE HER FOR BEING WHITE, LIVING AS WHITE, NOT BEING WOKE ( new crazy phrase here). Don?t ask. Lol.
SHE HAS BLACKS HERE WHO ARE GONING TO HATE HER FOR NOT SUPPORTING BLACK CAUSES.
I really feel sorry for MM. Then, I really wish she would get serious about her new public life. I wish for her to follow the rules and just do her life. Make a new life for herself . Move on.

No. Why should she pay for her father to have a home better than he has and leave it for those trashy half siblings.
He sold her out. No doubt he was a good dad at times...I guess. I think , just my thinking, her main caretaker, mentor was her mother.
All of this...... just messy as hell.
PH and MM, The Eastenders.
PH and MM , a soap opera.

Like for Eug, it neede to be private.Windsor was appropriate instead of StPauls or Westminster..
It should have not been televised.
Like SophienEdward. classier would have been keeping it more private.
@FanDianaFancy - Don't forget that Edward and Sophie's 1999 wedding was televised. :) Edward is the son of the reigning monarch and Harry is the son of the next monarch, IMO their weddings were always going to be covered by television.
Maybe someone should send her dad a Billy Joel CD "Heart A-tttttttaaaaaacckkkkk!!!!" if hes had a heart attack, im Arnold Palmer :lol: But I can imagine he just wants to get out of the picture, only question is did he jump of his own accord or was he pushed by the palace?

Why no Televised Wedding? Why does it "need" to be private? Harry is the Prince of Wales second son. Eugenie will never do any senior royal work.
Sophie and Edward's wedding was televised.
Why is MEghan being talked about like she's a criminal or something? Because there are catty comments by jealous people on DM? That's no reason it just encourages Cyber bullying on those sites of Meghan and people who have no clue about her make nasty remarks. And it is unfortunate that some buy into it.
Harry and Meghan have every right to a televised wedding.

YOu don't know if plans are already underway for this. Meghan is not obligated to talk to the media about private family financial arrangements. And if she does not do it she's criticized for not doing anything. She can't win.
It's not too late to stop thinking the worst about this woman.

@wannable Its just like the old James Hewitt situation, he was left to twist after the army and breakup, thus he had the $$$ motivation to do a tell all book. Had MM took care of her dad better, he wouldnt have been as keen to try something like this. Its not just him that looks bad, now more eyes will be on the disparity of their financial situation and fair or not, ppl will side with the sad broken down old man that gave so much to put MM where she is now.
Its the old saying keep your friends close and enemies closer, not saying her dad is her enemy, but he had the cause and ability to do her harm, had she kept him "closer" by way of being more dependent on her for a decent living, this wouldnt have happened. Now its going to be awful hard to show his face around his daughter or any future grandkids.
I think after the wedding H&M should have a press confrence where she "divorces" her family except for her mom, who so far, has been the best of a bad bag of apples.
How is it known about the personal relationship and private relationship between Meghan and her father. Why would MEghan go to the media and say how much she gifts her father as far as money. If she says nothing, it's because, her critics assume, she did nothing.
It's nothing like the James Hewitt situation. IMO. There was no justification none, for the weasel to go to an author for $$$ talking about his relationship with Diana. He could have made money some other way. In any case, he lost all his money and is living with his mother. He went to other rich women who supported him. He was shameless and it has come back to bite him.
How can Meghan control her father? Maybe he's stubborn and headstrong and doesn't listen. But of course Meghan is the "bad person" always and can't win with some.
WHy wouldn't he be allowed to see future grandchildren? Who said he wouldn't.
Meghan will probably say nothing about her family. Kate keeps mum about her family because it's her personal business just as Meghan's relationship with her family is her business.

Well said, from tabloids to broadsheet the comments are siding with the poor old man. But never too late to help him out of the crime and drug infested dirt roads where he lives in poorly condition. There will always be a grandchild who will understand the real humanitarian act. These 2 aren't nothing of it.

There is no need for Harry Meghan to tell to know what's going on. The paparazzi job is to sit patiently, follow the subject, record with camera and note pad date time where and what. That is what they did to Kate and her entire family. And that is how pictures and a story is sold. The paparazzi will tell the journalist his notes, and from the notes plus date and time they can express it into a storytelling of i.e. Kate went to see her gynecologist, his name is, if the paparazzi couldn't see what button in the building she touched, the Katie Nicholl of the day would go and find out. This particular journalist had her hay day following tips and signs from strangers who spotted a or the Middletons and actually went out in the field upto whatever hours finding out, interviewing owners, barmans, waiters, whatever it took.
HE's a grown man. Children can sometimes have a very stubborn parent who refuses help. Unless they try to drug him and force him to go he might be stubborn and only go for help if things get a lot worse. Siding with the old man? Why would they side with someone who is so stubborn he does not do the right thing and get the condition treated. He has other children so why is Meghan exclusively blamed. You don't know what she did. She might have tried doing an intervention to no avail. Doria is divorced from him and most likely he would shut her out. He is not some object that can be picked up and collected.
BS nobody wants to live in poorly conditions, not even one African child who hangs on to the legs of celebrities visiting them are in a stubborn we don't want help situation. They all want to be adopted.
Statistically, 100 percent wants wealth and health stability no matter the culture.
Tom Markle Snr still owns property in Los Feliz, a very nice part of LA, I believe. He also, as a retired member of his union, has access to one of the best health care plans in the US.

That is what I was thinking. If her dad wanted to sell her out he already would have. Samantha already admitted that it was her doing. Meghan should have kept in touch with her father and H&M should have protected him and gave psychological assurances to him. I see this as Meghan's failure as a daughter, she's got her priorities wrong. Harry has still not met her father!
Her father has not asked for any of this and now he has to live with this shame. I would not have put my father in a situation like this for anything. If need be, go fly to Mexico and have a second wedding there, to please him, to show him what really matters. Or go fly to Mexico, accompany him to the UK, fly private since they can afford, it would cost less than her wedding gown. Hold his hand and reassure him while he walks you down the aisle. Make changes to the wedding plans to accommodate him. Right now, at least some people are accusing her father for selling her out. Even if my father had sold me out, I wouldn't let anyone talk about him like that.
This whole affair had always felt more Hollywood than royalty. Since the engagement interview, it became reality show more than Hollywood (I couldn't finish their engagement interview, there is a reason I don't watch reality TV). Now it's just become a sad, exploitive reality show.
An article from the Fail two hours ago. We know nothing about Tom Markle's feelings or Meghan's. Samantha, who hates Meghan, admitted that she set things up. She and Tom Jnr are disgusting and this situation is mostly Samantha's doing. She has done nothing but bad mouth Meghan from the beginning.

Why is she blamed? Sometimes a parent can't be moved to do something and just rejects what the daughter wants him to do.
Her half siblings are trouble makers. Meghan did not engage in a public brawl with them.
She did not "make" her father have his picture taken. He is a grown man. Does she move him by remote control or something?
Royals do not have "second weddings." She could go with Harry to see him after the wedding.
Tom Sr is not a baby maybe he did not want his daughter to "protect him" and chose to live his life as he sees fit.
The trouble with this Meghan bashing is that the father is described as a child. He chose his life style.
The wedding is going on no matter how much Meghan is bashed. She has been bashed since she started dating Harry and for what?! Because she's not the prototype of a woman Harry should marry, Meghan is trashed.
I hope Meghan and Harry are left alone. I can see people bashing her after she has children and the children should not be subject to this horrible bashing of their mother.
Tom Markle Snr has an apartment in Los Feliz in Los Angeles, so he certainly isn't broke. However, Tom is not used to dealing with all this and I think Samantha has got in his ear.
Whichever way Meghan's dad is being explained, it all falls to be blamed on Harry and Meghan.
If you want to believe Samantha now, then believe her months ago pleading Meghan to help her daddy.
I don't believe Samantha, but I do believe she has got in her father's ear. Nor do I believe that this is Meghan's fault. Tom is a grown man, with, I believe, incredibly bad judgement.
Meghan has been getting a great deal of sympathy from the places and posters I've been reading this morning (Oz time.) But I expected the people who dislike Meghan and Harry to be rejoicing over this. No wishing them well about their wedding/future life together. Just it's all Meghan's fault. 'She and Harry should have done this, should have said that', a whole heap of criticism without knowing the dynamics of Meghan and the Markle family. Just judgemental and condemnatory, to the nth degree.
And the bashers are saying that the wedding should be postponed and how selfish Meghan is to not postpone it now. They never wanted the wedding in the first place. I think some really believe they can stop the wedding.

Samantha is hardly an epitome of virtue. She wants to trade in on her sister's fame to make money herself. Her manuscript is called Princess Pushy which says it all about her attitude.
Why are Meghan and Harry to blame? Maybe Meghan tried and her father would not listen to her. She can't drug him and force him to leave the place. He's a grown man.
Samantha trashed Meghan every step of the way and had the nerve to want to be invited to the wedding after she trashed Meghan. Sour Grapes.
They never cared, not one visit in 2 years. No excuses can help, nor the poor pity party display of Harry & Meghan or KP scrambling whispers to the Royal press pack. Everything was and is poorly handled.
How do you know the situation. You never liked Meghan so you will believe anything. What pity party display?
I hope they have a beautiful wedding and cause a lot of unhappiness to the bashers.
What a mess!
The wedding will go ahead without Tom. Doria will accompany her down the aisle.
Yes it will go on. The wedding is one day, the marriage is long term. I'm sorry that Meghan and Harry are facing all of this just days before their wedding, but this might make their bond stronger.

Consider the source! Personally I'll just wait and see on Saturday if this is true. The young royals not invited to Harry and Meghan's royal wedding | Daily Mail Online (http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-5733301/NFI-Young-royals-list-missed-cut-Harry-Meghans-big-day.html)
QuoteThey are great-grandchildren of George V and have attended all of the big royal weddings, including those of Prince Andrew, Prince William, and Prince Edward, whose ceremony was also held at St George?s Chapel, Windsor. They were on the balcony at Buckingham Palace with the Queen at last year?s Trooping The Colour.
While the Queen's first cousins have reportedly been invited: Gloucesters, Kents, PM/PssM of Kent, Princess Alexandra, it is being reported that the children and adult grandchildren of the Gloucesters and the Kents were not invited to the wedding.
Add them all up and this is a rather large group: Gloucesters: 3 kids plus their spouses, Kents: 3 kids plus their spouses, PMoK-2 kids plus one spouse, PA-2 kids plus one spouse. That's 18 people right there. (Won't even try to count all of the Kent adult grandchildren!)
While they were all invited to the Cambridge wedding in 2011 and AFAIK nearly all of them attended, that wedding did take place in WA which can hold many more guests.
Take a look at what NBC and the Today Show have built on top of a Windsor hotel in order to ensure good views of the carriage ride on the 19th.

Yes it will go on. The wedding is one day, the marriage is long term. I'm sorry that Meghan and Harry are facing all of this just days before their wedding, but this might make their bond stronger.
Believe it or not, all of this chaos is light, easy, nothing compared to what MM will face next Saturday on., next week.
I mean on May 29, 2018 and on.
I feel sorry for MM. I hope she is strong . She is so thing, bird legs, I wonder if this nightmare has caused her to lose weight.
This chaos is a helluva way to start a marriage.

Whichever way Meghan's dad is being explained, it all falls to be blamed on Harry and Meghan.
If you want to believe Samantha now, then believe her months ago pleading Meghan to help her daddy.
Please tell me how this falls on Harry and Meghan? They do not tell Sr what to say or what to do.....this is not a script of theirs but of his own behavior! Tome Sr has control of his life, he lives his life according to what he wants to do, not someone else telling him what to do. Harry and Meghan met, fell in love and so what is the big deal, it happens daily to thousands of people. And so what if Harry has not met Tom Sr......you do not need to be always in someone's back pocket to see the kind of person that they are. In today's day and age, there is lots of ways of communicating and even here on the internet. And not every minute of Harry and Meghan's life along with Rom Sr needs to be know to the public, WE all have private lives to live that are not in the public eye as it should be and the same with anyone in a royal family.....

Meghan Makle?s father out of surgery ? Royal Central (http://royalcentral.co.uk/uk/princeharry/meghan-makles-father-out-of-surgery-102616)
That sapphire tiara that Albert designed and had made for Queen Victoria is indeed beautiful but I believe it passed out of the possession of the BRF and is now on display at a museum, I think the V and A.
Also, I think the Queen isn't likely to pick the dukedom of Windsor for Harry. The abdication in 1936 was very painful for the Queen's parents and I don't think she'd want old memories revived.
Quote from: Nightowl on May 16, 2018, 07:58:44 PM
Please tell me how this falls on Harry and Meghan? They do not tell Sr what to say or what to do.....this is not a script of theirs but of his own behavior! Tome Sr has control of his life, he lives his life according to what he wants to do, not someone else telling him what to do. Harry and Meghan met, fell in love and so what is the big deal, it happens daily to thousands of people. And so what if Harry has not met Tom Sr......you do not need to be always in someone's back pocket to see the kind of person that they are. In today's day and age, there is lots of ways of communicating and even here on the internet. And not every minute of Harry and Meghan's life along with Rom Sr needs to be know to the public, WE all have private lives to live that are not in the public eye as it should be and the same with anyone in a royal family.....
Yes it falls on PH and MM.. In reality, no. No it is not their fault or no ones fault in reality.
In the way that this is perceived, it is MMs fault and PH. It is all based on or and keeping the illusion alive and in that way, it is PH and esp. MMs fault.
Rehearsals in Windsor, carriage, soldiers rehearsing, flowers etc.

No. Definitely not London at StPauls or Westminster and Buckingham Balcony.
It is awful as it is now.
Hollyrood would have better.
Buckingham Palace , I think it is big enough to hold around 400 people of closest family of PH, MMs only family member, her mother, and friends of the couple would have been best.
No televised wedding.
This is an awful, ugly, circus, of expense , bad pr for MM starting out the people....just awful.
The bad "PR" comes from the Meghan bashers. The mainstream media does not make a federal case and blame Meghan about the family issues. I think it is a reflection on the media and the bashers who are shooting themselves in the foot. I wish Meghan and Harry every happiness. Why do you think it awful ugly and a circus? It's a royal wedding. The couple are not evil or awful and are a couple getting married.

Yes I do agree it would be nice if the couple thanked the residents of Windsor, though I believe that won't happen until after the wedding. I still believe that WC was the best location for the wedding due to security concerns as it is easier for the smaller town to be secured than the area around WA, the Mall and BP. Also the Met Police may have pointed out that they would also be busy securing areas around Wembley Stadium for the FA Final to take place on Saturday. I believe it would just be too much for them to try and hold two major events on the same day with the level of security that would be required.
IMO Holyrood would not be able to accommodate enough guests if they used the same church that Zara and Mike did for their 2011 wedding. The church is not that large when compared to SGC. As for a televised wedding, IMHO that was always going to happen for Harry. :shrug:
sandy, you and I get along...you know my posts on the cast of characters are never biased.
Fair.
I like PH and MM and like them as a couple.
I really hope, I SO SO want this girl to make it and for them to be and stay happy as a couple for 5, 10, 20 years and on until old age and death do they part.
I want MM to follow the rules and fill that public role in the fishbowl with grace, dignity, hard work at her duties....the never putting a foot wrong in style, dress, walk, facial expressions, etc. She has want it takes. She needs proper instruction. She needs to do it all as it is done. She dies not
It is a hard life in public, somewhat , but easy as a trade for a lifetime of wealth and yes privacy in her position.
I do think for second son, not heir, and a need to scale down the BRF, a nontelrvised wedding would have been better. WC and Frogmore, fine.
The carriages and gun salutes and everything else PW had is just too much.
WC was chosen and it is more appropriate rather than StPauls or Westminster like AndrewSarah had during the high rolling 1980s.
Eug will have WC and Frogmore but probably with less pageantry than PH. Certainly her wedding will not be televised.
MM is not evil. She was also not a stripper, an escort, married twice, cause of the VietnamWar and everything else the poor girl has been accused of.
It is an awful circus with those people who are not MMs family are being paid by British media to really slam her. These people who ate related to her father , one way or another, really do not know MM.
Those people, Markles are Fooleys, are real lifelong , pitiful losers.
Its good to see Harry's family in force supporting Meghan; from Charles and Camilla visiting KP, to William and Kate at Windsor Castle.
Fan, every single Royal who is a child of the monarch or the Heir to the throne in modern times has quite a large wedding, which is televised.
Edward is the Queen's third son. At the time of his and Sophie's wedding in 1999 the BRF was in rather low esteem in those years following Diana's death. Edward was seventh in line to the throne when he married, after Charles, William, Harry, Andrew, Beatrice and Eugenie.
Yet Edward had a televised wedding at St George's and also a reception at Windsor with the BRF present, including the Queen Mother, and even a few foreign royals. They had a large cake, quite a few bridal attendants and a carriage ride through Windsor. A fuss was made in the media, though not such a big one as now because Edward wasn't particularly popular and there was also virtually no Internet.
Like Edward Harry, sixth in line, is getting a Wedding at St George's and a reception at Windsor (and party at Frogmore.) He and Meghan, like Edward and Sophie, are going to have a televised wedding and a carriage ride of one carriage through Windsor.
Harry is getting a few extras like an escort of Household Cavalry because he, unlike Edward, was a Blues and Royals officer for ten years. As he served twice in war zones, no doubt the MOD were quite amenable to the military escort. Harry is not getting a gun salute at all.
The Queen and Prince Charles have been in charge of the scale of this wedding, which they are bearing the costs of. If Charles and/or the Queen were asked now I believe that they would regard the scale of this wedding as entirely appropriate. If the wedding were not televised then people who want to see Harry get married would complain. There are certainly as many people who want to see the televised ceremony now as there were for Edward's nuptials in 1999.
If the Queen and the Prince of Wales had wanted a smaller scale wedding then they would have pressed for one, and Harry would have agreed. Harry's personal tastes probably run to weddings somewhere hot like his friend Skippy's wedding in Jamaica.
William wanted a smaller wedding in St George's but was told no. Harry is the son of the Prince of Wales and I believe the choice of venue and the scale of this wedding is at least partly Charles's choice.

No. Definitely not London at StPauls or Westminster and Buckingham Balcony.
It is awful as it is now.
Hollyrood would have better.
Buckingham Palace , I think it is big enough to hold around 400 people of closest family of PH, MMs only family member, her mother, and friends of the couple would have been best.
No televised wedding.
This is an awful, ugly, circus, of expense , bad pr for MM starting out the people....just awful.
Too late!
Harry and Meghan already makes decisions final! And will have television this weekend and no last minute because he is son of Prince Charles and late Diana,Princess of Wales but don?t forget he is grandson of monarchy
Harry not future king his older brother will become King after dad and grandma
His parents married in 1981 and got ugly split in 1992 till divorce in 1996 but his dad got remarried in 2005

Yes it falls on PH and MM.. In reality, no. No it is not their fault or no ones fault in reality.
In the way that this is perceived, it is MMs fault and PH. It is all based on or and keeping the illusion alive and in that way, it is PH and esp. MMs fault.
Your comment did not even make sense, illusion is what, not a FACT. I do not control anyone's life but my own and the same goes for MM/PH, they control their own destiny not anyone esle's just as Tom Sr controls his own life......what should they sit on him daily telling him what to do and say.....give me break....Illusion is what, it is NOT real, it is hearsay and distorted opinions by others all for the purpose of causing trouble for someone else who have nothing better to do with their Own lives.

Since Meghan exists in Harry's life, yes there is the Responsibility from him/firm. Before their engagement, the press weren't following the Ragland/Markles, they were nobody. They were living their sad poor lives. Now Thomas the Hermit Recluse is in trouble, partly his fault and partly the Firm, Doria 'suddenly' has money to quit and open her own business.
Certain amount of responsibility from Harry and his team to advise the bride's family, no investigation whatsoever of the red flags of bankrupt and trailer trash dire straight in need of moneys, especially since they all seem to be the hillbilly low middle class to poor, and live in different countries. It was much easier with the Middleton's because they are British and were born into a Constitutional Monarchy, they live in a gated mansion in Berkshire, their gated business company is also nearby, all in Berkshire, which makes it much harder for the press to picture take and find out what they were up to. (The only paparazzi that got in trouble, had to pay Kate a hefty sum for stalking/harassment previous to marriage). Also, William would actually visit Carole and Michael frequently, vacationed with them, he certainly had conversations of what, where, how, etc. of handling once out of the door situation.

The article about Prince Harry's possible titles mentioned Connaught and Albany. I thought that Connaught and Albany were not available.
The Express article IS rubbish. They're just scratching for something to write about. Connaught is in Southern Ireland and the Queen would never give anyone a non British territorial Dukedom.
Albany was given to Victoria's son Leopold and his son succeeded at birth to his titles as his father had died. However, Charles Edward was sent to Germany as a schoolboy to succeed to the Dukedom of Saxe Coburg Gotha and he supported the Kaiser during World War One.
His English titles were formally removed by Order in Council by King George V in March 1919. The dukedom of Albany therefore is in suspension. Charles Edward has male descendents who could in theory ask for the English titles to be restored, but they haven't done so yet and it would be a hollow victory anyway, as noble titles aren't formally recognised in modern Germany.
Albany therefore isn't available for Elizabeth to give to her grandson.

We all agree these low life?s are repulsive.
They will continue to be for the rest of their lives until the day they die.
They have found new careers.
Their claim to fame is MM.
The question is how could PH and MM have been rid of them?
There is really no to shut them up and no way to make them go away.
The only way is if the Brit media and Amer. stops paying them
The only way is if bad things start happening to them like....
They have to pay USA taxes on their income from Brit media and Amer. media.
Being in the fame, with no protection, is not easy. Stalkers . Regular people just wanting to see their homes, job places. Rouge and dangerous paparrazi following them.
Oh, people think they got some money, so lawsuits.
Their pass can be dragged up. The Tracey Dooley low life is a recovering alcoholic.
It is just sad how people can be that way.
Yes they were unknown before M and H starting dating. Samantha loser jumped in then. She got to the media right away.
Thing is, no one would know about these losers if they had wanted to remain private. They put themselves out there.
A good way for them to disappear is how their lives start messing them up like the half brother , mug shots with gf fir beating each other up.
Ok, I am done.
There's just been an official announcement from KP that Charles will accompany Meghan from the Quire down the aisle to the altar. Probably Doria was feeling a bit overwhelmed after the last 24 hours with her arrival in England.
Double post auto-merged: May 18, 2018, 10:06:26 AM
Royah Nikkah, correspondent for the Times, says that Prince Philip is quite well enough to be at the Chapel tomorrow.
Good for Charles, this is a great support to Meghan. It's a confirmation Doria is the only family to be at the wedding.
As long as he does not point at things like he does on appearances. It would have been good if Doria walked Meghan halfway up to meet Charles. How is it known she's the only one? If others attended from the family they would not want to replace Doria. Have you seen the guest list wannabe? I doubt you have.
There is no other family member Meghan may ask to escort her down the aisle; godfather, from eldest to youngest uncles or cousins, hence Harry's father will give her away to his own son.
I'm a member of the Church of England.
Charles isn't performing the absent father role, that is, 'giving her away' at the altar. The plan when Tom Snr was going to be there was that Doria would be in the car and escort her daughter to the top of the steps of the Chapel. Tom would then take over.
However, Charles isn't playing the 'father' role and giving his future daughter in law away. Meghan will move alone, with her attendants behind, and following the Dean of Windsor, up the aisle as far as the Quire, (where the RF sit.) Charles will then accompany Meghan to the altar only a few feet away. The part of the litergy when the Archbishop asks 'Who giveth this woman to this man' will be absent, as Tom isn't there to do it. Charles will be playing a limited role.
In some overseas locales the groom and bride enter church together, in some the bride walks alone as Meghan will be doing for part of the way, sometimes the bride's mother walks her, but Doria must have been overwhelmed, I'd say.

Again again. I am not not against M and PH. I really, really do want this girl to make it.
I just really wish their wedding ceremony more private, smaller and then it would not , perhaps had the external circus they cannot control.
PC walking her down the aisle even half way?
MM , girly, you had better understand this is your life , duties, and no divorce.
Getting the part from the Nave to the Altar, Meghan has no choice from her family, hence Charles will do the honor.
****
When the wedding of Knatchbull, Lord Louis Mountbatten's great granddaughter, Charles did the honor of walking her down, BUT Charles and the Knatchbull's are family first most and then close friends.
