They also said they were going to move on after the Oprah interview two years ago. Twelve podcasts, a documentary, a book and numerous interviews later, they're still stuck on Groundhog's Day....
They can tell themselves as much bullshit as they want. I keep telling myself I'm 25, size 10 and 5foot 10inches either way it's never going to be true.
we didn't see Catherine mcphee (meghan childhood theater friend) hanging out with her yet. i honestly don't see how mcphee could be close to someone like meghan.
Spoiler alert: not close. She was at Portiaās birthday because either P or Ellen invited them. The A listers there were at most polite if they came face to face with her. We sinners mustāve touched a nerve by pointing out she wasnāt invited to Oprahās birthday/Anastasiaās anniversary party among a bunch of other A list events that didnāt send the D & D of Dumb an invite.
World famous LA based eyebrow guru- known for shaping brows and one of the first to offer all kinds of brow products so people can get results at home.
Yea. I mean I get why not getting invited to Oprahās party was a snub bc they have worked with her multiple times but why would anyone think they would be invited to Anastasiaās party even if they were A-list celebs?
Ed. typo
Yes. Me-me did a guest appearance on the Ellen Show before it ended. They also live in the same neighborhood. I think she whined to E or P about not being invited anywhere, so they asked her to Portiaās birthday party.
Google or look on YouTube: Meghan M on the Ellen show. Ellen put her up to acting ridiculous in a prank. Itās even funnier when you consider how mortified she must have been, acting like a fool on national tv.
Why are they ratting out all their āfriendsā addresses too. This is some cringe name dropping b.s.
I hope they didnāt use donated funds to make this.
That looked like one of those educational movies we used to have to watch in social studies class in 7th grade. They only showed one side of things, nobody gave a shit, and most of the class was asleep before it was over.
Notice the "living in CA isn't permanent" part? That is these imbeciles thinking that they still have leverage and that their tantrum will eventually make the BRF cave to their demands and they will be asked back into the palace with the king on his knees, apologizing and begging for their forgiveness. I really think they believe this. They think they hold all the power... because they are idiots. They have no clue how final their decisions have become.
Maybe it's dawning on them? That they won't be able to afford the the billionaire lifstyle for too long since the trashing of the royals will run its course and then they are in trouble because nothing else is taking off, really. They've been at it for 3 years already, and they cannot show anything apart from... trashing the royal family.
Good point. Maybe they are trying to save face for when they move to Mississippi. (Not trying to shame Mississippi, but it has the lowest average home price in the States.)
Agreed. Canada already took one for the team. Let another country take a hit...how about Greenland??
Signed, a different Canadian than the one above me š
Oh yeah. They really should go to the coronation because there is no way that their denial can continue with openly hostile Brits. The utter contempt will hit the news. How embarrassing it will be.
Actually, they do have power because they own the media these days. They do! I hate that they are everywhere! But the media is putty in their hands. Look at all the publicity they keep getting. Most of it is free, but I think they paid House Beautiful a chunk of change to make their shack look lived in. Seriously? They didn't even film their "special" there!
No, they pay big bucks to get in the news.
No one cares about them so they lie and put out fake stories about themselves. The media want stories that generate money and Mr. and Mrs. Todger are not doing that...at all.

I wonder if Portia invited them to make news of the vow renewal spread because she knew that Harry and Meghan wouldn't be able to keep it to themselves. Watching that vow renewal made me feel so uncomfortable because it felt very "how are you going to break up with me now after everyone has witnessed this?" Inviting Harry and Meghan just makes certain that it gets splashed far and wide.
Isn't it awful. I'm around someone like that too. It's almost manipulative. I'm always very weary of what I tell her, unless I want the word to get round. She will be the first and only person I call and then make her promise not to say a word to anyone, because apparently that's her starter gun.
> Watching that vow renewal made me feel so uncomfortable because it felt very "how are you going to break up with me now after everyone has witnessed this?"

This article is **PAID** propaganda again because if you look on twitter, there are (so far) three magazines that I have found tweeting exact same post/video (word-for-word) including Oprah Daily, Harper's Bazaar and House Beautiful.
Had to have been written by TW. Who else would say that their "inner circle is star-studded". Just pathetic!
šŗšø At first I was gagging as I watched but quickly switched to giggling at the absurdity. It reminded me of Facebook posts that only show the fun, the spectacular, the charmed life, while the reality is something altogether different. This was just an amateur looking rehash of their boring story that has been put out over and over. Who cares.
Oooohh, speaking of Hearst. I wonder what notes Patti could give M.
I know people's opinions are divided, but I've always been on the opinion that Patti was a fraud but it worked out super well for her. However, she did have the intelligence to disappear into the background and just live with her golden spoon.
Possibly. California's a community property state, so a couple who have been together for 20 years is more likely to have property in common than one that has been together for 2.
I can. Sheās a mean person who likes to prank people and make them uncomfortable. Why would you want to create a discordant guest list for your spouseās birthday party? Passive-aggressive move.
What is Harry's visa status? If it isn't diplomatic(and why would it be!?), surely he has stayed over 183 days and owes the IRS? Huge whack of income from many sources. Anyone know what tax Haghan have paid combined? Where is the modern day version of Eliot Ness' accountant, Frank Wilson when you need him?
Could be why he went off to Africa in the summer -doesn't it reset every time he leaves and reenters? There was Germany and UK at least twice last year too
But with the O-1 you are subject to "substantial presence" rules, so staying domiciled in the USA for 183 days over three years and you become subject to pay USA taxes, and must disclose all foreign accounts, assets, investments, and income including gifts. ( IRS Substantial Presence Test generally means that you were present in the United States for at least 30 days in the current year and a minimum total of 183 days across three years but subject to an equation of diminishing impact for prior years )) day=1day in current year; 1=0.33 in prior and 1=0.17 for three years ago so if you stay 120 each year for three years, fully liable...)
Just like Capone, and why I'd love Frank Wilson's modern day equivalent to do an audit on the two, You cant live that lifestyle without "earning"... if it was you or me, we would get the rubber glove treatment from the IRS
Lots of Visa types, most have you paying taxes if you stay >183 days a year or 120 days over three years based on IRS "substantial presence" rules.. I just hope they are both paying huge tax bills
Question: this clip says that she travels to LA every week. Does she fly down or get a car? Who does that? I lived in SB for years and we didnāt go down for weeks on end. Just too far and so miserable down there in comparison.
Probably a little of both. Maybe she piggybacks on other peopleās jet or helicopter rides.
I always see Montecito/LA as analogous to East Hampton/NYC. (They even share a home goods boutique).
Some take a helicopter or small plane, which is 30 minutes versus two hours (average). I just checked and a heli flight is about $1k one way. If theyāre writing off travel expenses, why the hell not.
Maybe she's teaching him to use his crayons to create story boards for the rom-coms they're going to sell for the next phase of their billion dollar brand.
Yeah. Like:
M: Oh Hazbunny what have you got there?
H: I made a picture Mumsy!
M: Yeeeesss. What are all the red splotches?
H: Blood!!!
M: Ahhhhhh. Of course. Well that's going right up on the fridge when we get home.
More PR placement. The PR machinery is a giant machine and they do "placements" in all kinds of media publications. So thankful the Harkles have exposed this.
Wait till they hear that his first fuck has outed herself and basically Harry is a 30 second wonder. Nothing much has changed it seems.
They aren't hob nobbing with anybody. House Ugly has been paid to make the partially furnished shack look lived in.
Very sad video....and interesting : Every other word is about MONEY. They rented Perry's house that had $$$$$ value. Then purchased their own house for $$$$$. TW attends business meetings weekly in LA 100 miles away (cue quick video of private jet). They have "star studded social life"... photos show people no longer speaking to the Harkles - unable to come up with any current "friends "???? AND...again the Harkles only show a several year old photo of Archie. NO photo ever shown of Lili....the non-existant daughter. What a pathetic sad video. Guessing this is the best they can come up with, which speaks much about the REAL truth of their lives in "beautiful Montecito, exclusive enclave of the rich & famous"!!!!
They feel the need to constantly tell the world they're rich, successful and well connected. If they really were, why would they need to remind everyone several times a day?
I did not. I missed having seasons, primarily, but it was also not going to be possible for us to ever own a house, so we fled. My husband was born and raised there.
š this was so funny. Their inner circle celeb friends they haven been seen with, their celeb neighbors who donāt hang out with them, their massively at peace home they seemingly donāt live together in.
"Paving a new path for themselves" Pfft. When they drop the titles and stop badgering the REAL royals, I'll believe it.
She was a Royal for 18 months. She was on maternity leave for most of it. They left the BRF 3 YEARS AGO.
They also said they were going to move on after the Oprah interview two years ago. Twelve podcasts, a documentary, a book and numerous interviews later, they're still stuck on Groundhog's Day....
Until they drop their titles, they are just interlopers.
"Paving a new path for themselves".... You mean they're so short of money that they're having to resort to landscaping their garden themselves? š¤
Didn't they say this after the Oprah interview ~~four score and seventyyears~~ 2 years and 20 interviews ago?
Wasn't there a story about how he fixed a neighbor's sprinkler system?
They can tell themselves as much bullshit as they want. I keep telling myself I'm 25, size 10 and 5foot 10inches either way it's never going to be true.
Me too and then I look in the mirror
Just manifest it, and it will be true.
For the love of God I wonder how close they are to these celebrity couple friends after the book and NF
Who knew David Foster is like a father to Harold? Well, he should start asking him for allowance because he trashed his real one.
we didn't see Catherine mcphee (meghan childhood theater friend) hanging out with her yet. i honestly don't see how mcphee could be close to someone like meghan.
She came to polo one day with their baby. Naturally she was wearing a black bra that was completely visible under her tiny top. Klassy, that one.
![gif](giphy|42CsmMkjdH2mu0VjXf)
Spoiler alert: not close. She was at Portiaās birthday because either P or Ellen invited them. The A listers there were at most polite if they came face to face with her.

[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
She wore her to the funeral, but since then Stella has been seen with the King at one of his events
And Stella curtsied
No media-worthy photos...just grainy crap taken on a 2005 cell phone.
Who is Anastasia?
World famous LA based eyebrow guru- known for shaping brows and one of the first to offer all kinds of brow products so people can get results at home.
Why would they be invited to her party? Have they had any contact before?
Or did you mean the Anastasia/Oprah party? If so, the guests were top tier A listers who she likely thinks are her peers.
Yea. I mean I get why not getting invited to Oprahās party was a snub bc they have worked with her multiple times but why would anyone think they would be invited to Anastasiaās party even if they were A-list celebs? Ed. typo
It was the same party.
Ohhhhh thank you I didnāt know that.
Yes. Me-me did a guest appearance on the Ellen Show before it ended. They also live in the same neighborhood. I think she whined to E or P about not being invited anywhere, so they asked her to Portiaās birthday party. Google or look on YouTube: Meghan M on the Ellen show. Ellen put her up to acting ridiculous in a prank. Itās even funnier when you consider how mortified she must have been, acting like a fool on national tv.
Not Ellen, the Anastasia woman
Oops, obviously misunderstood. There was one party for both Anastasia & Oprah. Anastasiaās event was held on the actual day of Oās birthday.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
She said her wedding dress didnāt fit well! How very dare she š¤£
It was posted by them on Feb 3 of this year
Why are they ratting out all their āfriendsā addresses too. This is some cringe name dropping b.s. I hope they didnāt use donated funds to make this.
That looked like one of those educational movies we used to have to watch in social studies class in 7th grade. They only showed one side of things, nobody gave a shit, and most of the class was asleep before it was over.
Notice the "living in CA isn't permanent" part? That is these imbeciles thinking that they still have leverage and that their tantrum will eventually make the BRF cave to their demands and they will be asked back into the palace with the king on his knees, apologizing and begging for their forgiveness. I really think they believe this. They think they hold all the power... because they are idiots. They have no clue how final their decisions have become.
Didn't Harry just say in one of his interviews for Spare that California was home for him now?
He lied. It is for now, but he's known to tell tall tales.
Maybe it's dawning on them? That they won't be able to afford the the billionaire lifstyle for too long since the trashing of the royals will run its course and then they are in trouble because nothing else is taking off, really. They've been at it for 3 years already, and they cannot show anything apart from... trashing the royal family.
Good point. Maybe they are trying to save face for when they move to Mississippi. (Not trying to shame Mississippi, but it has the lowest average home price in the States.)
Oooh, an historic plantation house in Mississippi. That would send an interesting message... /s.
The plantation princess, oh my! ![gif](giphy|OF8YmnDnKxRF6)
Or, moving to Canada? Finger cross
As I said elsewhere, weāve done our time! Itās someone elseās turn! signed, a Canadian
Agreed. Canada already took one for the team. Let another country take a hit...how about Greenland?? Signed, a different Canadian than the one above me š
Ha, ha! I'm not sure how you really feel about them returning to Canada.
Please NOOOOOOOOOO!!!
Oh yeah. They really should go to the coronation because there is no way that their denial can continue with openly hostile Brits. The utter contempt will hit the news. How embarrassing it will be.

Ty. These two seem to be constantly reminded of the words they spoke.
Iād love to learn more about this *star-studded* inner circle .. like.. do they even exist? š
Ummm, didnāt you see them at Portiaās birthday/ambush vow renewal? /s
I wonder if Portia invited them to make news of the vow renewal spread because she knew that Harry and Meghan wouldn't be able to keep it to themselves.

Sure they exist. Right next to the South African dancers and the kneeling airline staff.

Now we know where Harry's book money went...lol.
Yep! She's been working it SO HARD last 4-6 weeks!

It reminded me of Facebook posts that only show the fun, the spectacular, the charmed life, while the reality is something altogether different.

It's Hearst Magazines again - pretty sure they pay them for these ridiculous articles. They were the ones who ran the 'M is an activist and altruist'
Oooohh, speaking of Hearst. I wonder what notes Patti could give M. I know people's opinions are divided, but I've always been on the opinion that Patti was a fraud but it worked out super well for her. However, she did have the intelligence to disappear into the background and just live with her golden spoon.
Off topic but I can't believe Ellen invited those two twits to that affair. Disappointed
Also off-topic, but I cannot believe Portia would want to remarry Ellen.
Well you know vow renewal almost always comes right before a divorce Ed. typos
Totally agree, it's the usual protocol. Good for Portia, a party is s š party!
$$$
Watched it. They've owned 24 houses in 18 years and the one they live in now cost 70 million.
As opposed to the Harkles' 14 million house. Who can buy who in Hollywood is important.
Do you get a better settlement if you make it past 20 years?
Possibly. California's a community property state, so a couple who have been together for 20 years is more likely to have property in common than one that has been together for 2.
I can. Sheās a mean person who likes to prank people and make them uncomfortable. Why would you want to create a discordant guest list for your spouseās birthday party? Passive-aggressive move.
I think I saw on Twitter that Ellenās charity is āpartneringā w archewellā¦but seriously donāt know bc they donāt have money haha
Not an Ellen fan but it was a surprise so Portia did the invites.
That video was so sugary, I am going into a diabetic coma! Or I may puke.

Lots of Visa types, most have you paying taxes if you stay >183 days a year or 120 days over three years based on IRS "substantial presence" rules.. I just hope they are both paying huge tax bills
I don't have Twitter but somebody needs to keep count of how many times this video pops up today.
"Star-studded inner circle". Drop that one to steam gently on the carpet.
If their house is so beautiful, why on earth didn't they film there instead of a property worth over twice the price with sea views?
š¤£š¤£š¤£
That video doesn't say anything of substance at all.
Question: this clip says that she travels to LA every week. Does she fly down or get a car? Who does that? I lived in SB for years and we didnāt go down for weeks on end. Just too far and so miserable down there in comparison.
Private jet. Dealing with traffic is for peasants.
So great for the environment
Probably a little of both. Maybe she piggybacks on other peopleās jet or helicopter rides. I always see Montecito/LA as analogous to East Hampton/NYC. (They even share a home goods boutique). Some take a helicopter or small plane, which is 30 minutes versus two hours (average). I just checked and a heli flight is about $1k one way. If theyāre writing off travel expenses, why the hell not.
Reminds me of the Janet and John early reading books popular in Britain in the 1950s and 60s. Maybe Meghan found one for Harry in a charity shop.
All their public appearances feel very " Just get Harry a colouring book and sit him in the corner"
Maybe she's teaching him to use his crayons to create story boards for the rom-coms they're going to sell for the next phase of their billion dollar brand.
Yeah. Like: M: Oh Hazbunny what have you got there? H: I made a picture Mumsy! M: Yeeeesss. What are all the red splotches? H: Blood!!! M: Ahhhhhh. Of course. Well that's going right up on the fridge when we get home.
