Team Sussex: The Sussex Family General Chat Part 1

I have heard of RecipeTin eats. My younger daughter is a bit of a foodie and has been to her website and tried a couple of her Asian recipes. The Food Guy not so much. Is he the young Wisconsin bloke on TikTok who likes trying all sorts of foods?

I have the new cookbook by Recipe Tin Eats and I love their shirred eggs  and  so many of their other recipes.  I don't eat meat so I am careful of what to cook, meat is hard for me and my body, digestive issues that have affected me all my life....Oh the Food Guy is a Chicago Middle Age Man......still haven't been to any of the places he promotes.  Guess he is okay for the rich and famous crowd here. I have a place I like to go to as I have been going there for years and know the staff and the crowd, a basement hidden gem for the local people, mot the tourist crowd.

That is indeed very cute. And it emphasises again what others who have met Meghan and Harry face to face have said many times. That she (and Harry) are natural, kind, listen to others and are indeed very very sweet.

A 10 years ago anecdote (social media bombarded, British media this past week too), in Celebrity world it means the celeb needs to be in the news because there is nothing new to showcase.

At least WMA is doing part of the job keeping her in the news.

Or two american citizens who I assume don't have a connection with the British anything, were on a podcast together. In which they talked about their own experience mentioned an experience they had together that involved Meghan.

It also wasn't bombarded on social media. The podcast themselves didn't mention it or post it to twitter. A fan found it and posted the clip that was about Meghan.

There is nothing wrong with rehab campaigns. Connect the dots with WMA.

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry Are Playful and Flirty: Source Exclusive

Yes, a very Happy Birthday to Meghan, who was taken out for a fun time on her birthday by her adoring husband. I bet her children spoiled her as well.

Hope Lady CC, who had them in the divorce courts earlier this year, is taking note, and Angela Levin and the rest of the anti Sussex media crew with their vials of poison. 

Correction for the second time of the above mis-information, Lady C said multiple sources close to the couple said they were going towards it, but she said she will not believe it until it happens. Context.

ETA: Happy birthday pap walk.  :bday10:

The couple were out for dinner. There were no photos of them at their birthday dinner.

Prince Harry called in divorce lawyers 'months ago', claims Lady Colin Campbell - Scottish Daily Express

?The problem is that the information doesn't necessarily match up with their public face. But of course, their public face is to an extent slapped on for monetary gain.

"And also if there are real problems in the marriage, which there do appear to be, Harry's going to have a heck of a time extricating himself, because he has been very overt about all of his failings and all of his drug-taking."

If that?s not hinting that Harry was seeking a divorce I don?t know what is! Of course the lying old bat has been back pedalling for weeks now because it?s been proved she (and Levin and the rest) don?t know what they?re talking about.

What next for Harry and Meghan '' reality TV''

Although the Sussexes' attempts to crack America have stalled, they are still box office and should switch up their PR strategy, experts advise

''Hollywood,'' a US media executive said this week about the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, 'loves a comeback'. It was a quote laden with significance, not least because it implied that the couple's recent setbacks, including the end of their deal with Spotify, have been so calamitous that they needed a boost to revive their career.
But as the duchess turns 42 and the duke embarks on a series of overseas appearances, has the time come for some kind of relaunch to turn their fortunes around.
After arriving in California to much fanfare more than three years ago at a time when the streaming services and studios were cash-rich and eager to throw money at celebrities, the couple signed high-profile deals with Spotify and Netflix.

However, as the money in the entertainment industry has dried up, the couple's attempts to crack America appear to have stalled.
In June Spotify announced its deal with the couple was coming to an end amid grumblings about the Sussexes' output, or lack thereof.

I only corrected what Lady C had said ''earlier this year'' for context. She received all the multiple friendly Sussex sources, which she also found suspicious, not only because she didn't even seek it or 'investigate it' - she received the info for ''free''.  She's not one to fool around - she said it - she will not believe nothing of it, only if it happens for real.

She also stated that she will keep on saying what sources tell her followed/plus her opinion about whatever news she's talking about.

So, yeah, context matters.

And how exactly does Lady CC know what is ?real? and what is not? She doesn?t know Harry and she certainly doesn?t know Meghan. She doesn?t live in California. And of course she doesn?t want to get sued for libel. The point is (if this person has any point) is that she listens to gossip in England and if it?s anti Sussex she runs with it for a while in interviews on GB news and on her YouTube Channel, to see if anything sticks, as she loathes the couple. Great way to make a living!

And as for happy marriages, how would this character know anything about such a subject?  Is she thirty years into a successful union with children of the marriage she gave birth to herself? No! Her one marriage lasted a few months before her husband left her. There?s been no love relationship since. And she adopted two Russian orphans. None of that gives her the slightest insight into the dynamics of a happy marriage, bringing children into the world and bringing them up within a happy marital relationship.

I?ve been married twice and my first marriage produced three children I gave birth to. The marriage was happy until the last eighteen months. I divorced. I?m now over twenty years into a very happy second marriage. And even with all that experience I wouldn?t dream of commenting in public on other people?s relationships especially those I do not know. Pity Lady CC doesn?t do the same.

And she has been quite happy in the past to hint quite strongly that Meghan has never given birth and used surrogates. What would she know about any of it. Has she ever been in any birthing suite with the Sussexes? No! But she is quite content to hint at absolute rubbish on the Internet about it. .

Her birthday was Friday. So the fact that she went to see a film with girl friends on Monday or had a meal with them later is neither here nor there. If I go to the movies with girlfriends on the week of my birthday without my husband I suppose that would mean my marriage is in trouble, lol! Husband and wife spent Wednesday night having a nice meal together and there is every indication (nothing to the contrary) that Meghan spent her actual birthday (Friday) with her husband and children.

So the headline to this, that Meghan spent her birthday away from her husband, is a misleading lie. As is usual with the media where the Sussexes are concerned.

2000'ish

After 2000ish worldwide ''instant'' comms tools were invented for ''everyone''', meaning it wasn't a machine with Video Voice and Data for a conference room or rich families with the machine plus the sat dish from a country in South America to a country in Asia, but an app (s) that are free tied to software packages, i.e. Skype, Messenger. Both not defunct but taken over by bigger and better apps like Whatsapp.

The pony express era is over, just in case.

^ Page Six, US based media outlet.

I know Page Six is a US based outlet. That doesn?t mean that headline wasn?t misleading and a lie. Or that many US media outlets still take stories and inferences from British sources like tabloids and run with them.

[wannable]

It's not the ''British media'' this time.

[Curryong]

It's not the ''British media'' this time.

Did I say in either of my posts that it was the British media publishing that report? No I did not. And Page Six is just as capable of twisting info and misleading headlines about people in the public eye as any other outlet.

Thread closed for review

[wannable]

I just wanted to emphasize that the US media are making headlines that should trigger the Sussexes - related to their past triggering with UK media.

ETA: The conversation today is Meghan isn't wearing her engagement ring since the couple's almost catastrophic car crash at NYC.

[TLLK]

IMO it's not a big deal that as a parent of young children that Meghan isn't wearing her engagement ring. She might find it easier to not wear it if she's being active with the kids and pets, so it's likely safely stashed somewhere secure.

Yes, my daughter doesn?t wear her engagement ring very often. Its quite valuable and a rather odd triangular shape. She has young twins, sails sometimes as I do, and its just too awkward to wear around boats, playing beach games with the kids and the dog, etc. It was a family heirloom owned by my son in law?s grandmother who was given it by her husband when they were newlyweds, so it would be devastating if it got lost.
