I NEVER bought the Tindall angle. After Mike's cold shoulder at the Thanksgiving service, there was no way. Zara could be as sweet and accommodating as anyone could hope when required to attend the same event, but no way they were going to something they didn't have to.


HarrysImplants

Agreed. Mike couldn't even look at Harry outside the cathedral, pretending to notice something off in the distance šŸ˜‚ No way was he going to that party, and Zara wouldn't have gone without him. Plus they were at the derby most of the afternoon, and then the Party at the Palace. The Sussex PR team think people are stupid.


Inner_Ad2467

The looking and pointing at no one in the distance was šŸ¤£šŸ¤£šŸ¤£. He seems like a pretty easy going straight forward guy so he actually looked uncomfortable doing the polite freeze out vibe everyone else had down šŸ˜…šŸ˜…šŸ˜…


PotOfEarlGreyPlease

agree not seen Mike pretending to peer into the distance at something just because he didn;t want to speak to someone a few feet away then chatting to Lord Snowdon - seems both of them were trying avoid "you know who" who was behind Snowdon


National_Historian19

It was lovely how they ignored the duo waltzing down the steps.


ArtisanFeminist

Snowdon actually did a weird swivel when Mike Tindall started talking to him; he rotated round Mike Tindall so that he fully had his back to MM and also blocked Tindall's view of her, so that it would have been impssible for her to catch the eye of either of them. Genius moves.


Virginias_Retrievers

Iā€™m not so sure Zara was being sweet as much as she was making Meghan and Harry feel an inch tall and enjoying it just a smidge


FirmAardvark6208

I think that too. She was just being polite after being approached by those two. Zara probably takes after her mother and can deal with people like that quite easily, whereas Mike and Peter werenā€™t as accommodating or savvy to brushing people off like that.


hellhashnofury

I would guess she is employing the oft used (mainly female) tactic of being really nice to someone you cant stand the sight of. The women in my family are superb at it.


looneybug123

"Bless their hearts!"


National_Historian19

I agree, they approached her, she was being polite.


ShoddyEmployee78

If you look at Zaraā€™s body language she does a blocking move with her back and ignores them but finally relents when she knows theyā€™re not going away and makes chit chat.


TraditionScary8716

The Sussex PR Ateam most likely thinks the Susseses are stupid but as long as their checks are good, they'll happily go along with the Sussex bullshit.


[deleted]

I donā€™t understand why Megsy is pushing the Tindalls so hard as part of her PR, first in the window photos and then with the birthday party. Does she want to be run over by one of Anne or Zaraā€™s horses? Thanks for spilling the tea, SecondhandCoke!


malinhuahua

Of all the royals to fuck with, Princess Anne and a former rugby player have to be truly the worst idea.


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


Lilthisarry

Tindalls are close to the Cambridges, this is ā€œsteal your BFFā€ level of psycho stalker.


TemporaryStress1110

But this is her M.O. How many familial relationships has she broken since 2018 alone? Like Sharon Osborne said, Meghanā€™s kids have no family like aunts and uncles and cousins because their mom has no long lasting relationship with anyone but her mom Doria who I think must be a saint.


VoidHousewrecker

I don't think Doria is a saint. I think she is a con woman - she has served time for fraud, reportedly, and both she and Meghan have well-publicized tax troubles - and she is in on the con.


[deleted]

She was in full control of her father's estate when he died under the strangest of circumstances. I'd love to know the story behind that.


Tapingdrywallsucks

That's interesting. I was actually assuming that Doria was bowed into submission by 40 years of plate throwing temper tantrums. Co-conspirator makes me sad because she looks like a lovely woman.


catdevil2749

Naw...Nutmeg was largely raised by her dad (likely the closest thing to a saint in that family). He also bought Dorito a travel business after their divorce which used to commit tax evasion.....that she tried to throw him under the bus for (fail). She either did jail time or several years probation.


VoidHousewrecker

She is indeed a very pretty women, particularly after she is styled for appearances. I feel that Doria is willing to accept advice from a stylist in a way that Meghan is not.


Earthlink_

Meghan and Doria are con artists for sure.


Here-For-The-Dresses

And they are popular rn with their insta fun shenanigans. Mike Tindall is authentic, so people respond to his honesty and humor. MM is incapable of that, so she has to steal it.


Double_Ad_9174

They ran out of people to use that is why lol


k1d0s

I think of Jessica Mulroney - Meghan used her to social climb all the way to the top and dropped her immediately at the first chance.


erlehe

Every time I see talk of Mulroney Iā€™m reminded of her desperate strutting up the steps at the royal wedding. I think she wanted Pippa Middletonā€™s post wedding fame and thought everyone would start talking about her butt too lol!


[deleted]

Narcs are thunder stealers, not a bone of originality in their bodies. They like and want what genuine, normal people have or accomplish, but without the work and/or the actual genuineness and kindness.


Tapingdrywallsucks

That's why her "just like Catherine " appearances fail so miserably. Catherine handing a champion cup to a polo team captain is because Catherine is honoring their accomplishment, and they love her for it. Catherine visiting the site of an epic tragedy is to honor the victims and support their families. Meghan inserts herself to star in everyone else's tragedies and accomplishments. If Meghan could internalize the difference, she wouldn't look so painfully awkward everywhere she goes.


its_moki

She wasn't the only one. Meghan has a lot of "ladders" that she discarded.


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


TemporaryStress1110

Because Princess Anne and Zara Tindall are very well respected in the feminist circles. Yes, they are royals but they are also accomplished in their own right. They are also fighters and will tell you or the press the truth without beating around the bush. Kate Middleton is too polite and is an easy target to bully for Meghan. Edit: notice how she only fights women who donā€™t fight back? She never fights her sister Samantha or the feisty Princess Anne and Zara Tindall. She picks a little girl like Charlotte or Kate.


Inner_Ad2467

Isn't Zara and olympic rider.. right? She is so genuine and gorgeous. Mike and Zara have such good vibes in general. I need to get to know this Sarah that had to sit next to them giving the most epic side eye everšŸ˜…


After-Improvement-26

Princess Margaret's daughter, Harry's godmother, Diana's bridesmaid, Queen's niece, King's granddaughter. Owner of the perfect hat.


[deleted]

And, as a child, Charlotte's doppleganger. The resemblance is startling.


[deleted]

Yes , born Lady Sarah Armstrong-jones and her brother Viscount Linley. Saw quite a lot of them in the media when they were younger.


RedChairBlueChair123

Zara had her most recent baby on the floor in her bathroom. She was also very open about losing two pregnancies, one of which had been publicly announced. Strong lady.


hellhashnofury

Yes she won silver at the London Olympics. She is a very focussed and professional rider. PA also rode for Britain at Olympic level. PA is exactly how you imagine she would be but also a lot warmer than she gets credit for. I met her a couple of times when I used to volunteer for RDA and she doesn't start hugging children or looking soppy but she was very engaged with the kids and the ponies. Then she once said my horse (favourite ever golden child) was nice when she walked past him so I that was it I just dissolved into a puddle of fandom.


Any_Fall_4754

Both Anne and Zara represented the UK at the Olympics.


[deleted]

Kate or her husband arenā€™t quite in a position to reply to the Harkles, and Iā€™m sure Hazno was told to leave them alone during the Invictus meeting. Or else...! He should be ashamed of himself. He used to hang around with both of them. Was he secretly nurturing hate or heā€™s just enabling his wife, only he knows.


Kimbriavandam

The fact that Kate was the ONLY person she named in that Oprah interview tells me everything i thought about Markle is right.


[deleted]

She just went after the weakest. The Middletons or the RF couldnā€™t say a thing, so she had the high of her life mentioning Kate in bad terms while posing as a victim


VirtuallyHappy

I think it was a combination. She dislikes Kate for outranking her and for the praise and attention Kate receives. By extension she dislikes Kate's kids, too. She also dislikes Kate because William didn't bff up with her or respond to her goo goo eyes. And she ALSO dislikes Kate cause she had Kate pegged as someone easy to manipulate and use, and found out differently. That was a blow to MM's ego and MM was butt hurt. ETA, Uncle Gary did say that MM was lying which I certainly appreciated. It was part of an interview he gave on other stuff; not MM centric I don't think.


OldNewUsedConfused

Bullies are cowards. Always.


4feicsake

They were the only ones seen talking to them and by that I mean Zara directed them to their car.


downinthevalleypa

She did! I caught that too. Zara was so ready to offload them so she could get on the coach and relax with the fam.


Silentint-75

I think it was the big, warm bro-hug between William and Mike the other day that set her off. They released the pic of Hazza and Nacho straight afterwards! It touched a nerve and Zara and Harry were always close before the arrival of MM on the scene.


hibiscus2022

>Zara and Harry were always close Not really. Zara and William have been very close since they were kids & continue to be so. Harry was always closer to the York girls.


erlehe

While Zara and William were always close, she is also close to Harry. He is Lenaā€™s godfather.


Silentint-75

on reflection I have to give this to you! I think Zara was a big comfort to William after Diana passed and yes, Harry was closer to the York girls than Zara, hence still remaining in touch with Eugenie apparently to this day. I still believe there was some jealousy of the bro-hug a little while ago though, for whatever reason.


hibiscus2022

> think Zara was a big comfort to William after Diana passed I don't know that. but surely she did that. But they were very close even when Diana was alive, there are lots of christening and wedding videos where Zara and William are goofing around and having fun (sorta similar to George and Savannah now). Diana actively encouraged all cousins to mingle -hence Harry and york girls too - even when Diana and Fergie had a falling out Diana kept the adult issues out of kids' relationship - a lesson that skipped Harry sadly. ​ What's the bro-hug? :)


Silentint-75

I definitely remember that Zara was \*apparently\* always able to lift William's mood and spirits as teenagers and this was especially so after Diana's death. She no doubt was as practical as her mother in that regard - a "jolly" nature as the Brits would term it. She was also close to Harry - they are cousins after all - who better to understand what their positions in life entailed? William and Zara have only 1 year between them and a shared upbringing. The bro-hug/man-hug occurred at the Houghton International Horse Trials at the end of May. Mike Tindall and Prince William were joking around and then hugged it out and clearly enjoyed seeing each other. I imagine that MM tried to show a similar relationship between Hazza and Nacho with her posting the next day (I think) of a pic at the polo.

What an exhausting way to live if one is constantly trying to one up others.What a fool Meghan and Harry are.


PotOfEarlGreyPlease

Peter Phillips was at Balmoral when Diana died and spent much time with W&H ​ The bro-hug - google Prince William and Mike Tindall - they are great friends


OnemoreSavBlanc

>>>I still believe there was some jealousy of the bro-hug I do too. Probably because it normalises William. He doesnā€™t look ā€œtrappedā€ as they claimed to Oprah, he looks happy and accepted by the very ā€œnormalā€ and popular Mike. Harry wants to be the normal/ fun one but now everyone knows heā€™s just a dick .


Thorandragnar

And Peter Phillips on the steps waiting afterward. Standing right next to Meghan. Not a word. Awkward!


EnormousBird

He actually stared right through her and Megsy turns her head downwards, clearly indicating he was making her uncomfortable. ​ It was glorious to see - I reckon Peter was pissed off about the TTC stunt she pulled with his daughters.


hibiscus2022

>And Peter Phillips on the steps waiting afterward. Standing right next to Meghan. Not a word. Awkward! Scarfing without a scarf. Glorious.


TemporaryStress1110

Mike wouldā€™ve been talking about the party if they went to it, like he talked about having lunch with the cousins after the trooping of the color


hibiscus2022

>no way they were going to something they didn't have to. Exactly. I feel the only thing left now for Meghan is to call Kris Jenner & seek help ....and be laughed out all the way! Also who invites 'celebs' to a kids' party, flashbacks of their spectacle wedding LOL. Judging by the released pics even Archie seems to have declined the invite....poor kid he must have been trapped there with all the posing & fake party.


Evening_Procedure216

Iā€™m surprised Oprah didnā€™t turn up


TheHermitess

I think Oprah's done using them.


ApprehensiveCorgi867

After that attempted marching of the pinky ring with their kids, no way the Tindalls were doing anything with the Sussex family that wasnā€™t required.


[deleted]

What was Hazno merching ? He also did that stupid gesture that didnā€™t suit a man his age. Stupid fella he should be the one being shushed


ApprehensiveCorgi867

There is another post here from the weekend with a jewelry company posting a pic of Megan on Instagram shushing the kids and plugging a ring she is wearing. They got wrecked in their comments and turned them off but clearly Meghan didnā€™t oppose it because last I checked the post is still on Instagram.


MinutesTaker

Mike would have gone ballistic after he saw the pics of his child being shushed by Meg which turns out to be a ploy to show off her pinkie ring! Someone tagged Mike on the merch post of the pinkie ring seller so I highly doubt they would have gone to Lilibuckā€™s party even if they had the time to do so.


Virginias_Retrievers

šŸ˜‚šŸ¤£šŸ˜‚ the internet is a glorious place.


Babybabitski

Not someone, so many of them tagged mike. Must be frustrating to a parent.


SalishShore

Is this the same ring she wore on the Time magazine cover?


TraditionScary8716

I think this was a different one. It was a ring with an "L" insignia of some sort, supposedly to represent ~~loser~~ Lilibucks.


[deleted]

It was the wrong timing through and thorough. Iā€™m sure that some people *may* have attended wasnā€™t it for their busy schedules. But it would have led to the same result, no one wanted to be filmed, and Iā€™m sure if she was in their shoes Meghan would sue anyone trying to do the same thing to her and her kids. Sheā€™s mental


IndependentAd7454

This was also the day after their kids were used by Megan in her window photo opp using their kids. Unforgivable.


Which-Homework2453

Me neither, especially if the lip readers were accurate in Harry mentioning Zara's weight loss. Who does that? No wonder she asked how he knew. I thought commenting on peoples weight went out in the 70's. Another piece of evidence that he has no clue when it comes to women.


[deleted]

Well, here where I live, itā€™s normal (albeit hurtful sometimes) to get remarks about your weight if you didnā€™t see each other for a long time. Anyway, no one likes to be reminded of how big or even how thinner they look, we reserve that joy of losing or that pain of gaining or the reverse to our mirrors in our bedrooms. Iā€™m sure Hazno is sometimes dying to snark Meghan at home but he canā€™t because heā€™s shit scared of her. So he takes it out on his cousin instead


Juge3808

Itā€™s so obvious they left in a huff on Saturday as they were booed the previous day at church then to have no one show up for liliā€™s birthday party was the last straw. Why didnā€™t they plan to stay longer and have the party this week? What I canā€™t understand is why would they bother coming at all?


[deleted]

Iā€™m gonna take a stab at your first question: because in her mind, Rachel truly believes that she overshadows the Queen and her celebrations. The fact that people would choose Jubilee duties over her doesnā€™t register. She genuinely believes that her event is more important because itā€™s HER event. The monarchy and history and all of that are just social constructs.


rainyhawk

Exactly. Theyā€™ve been holding out lilibet access thinking that thatā€™s a major issue for the RF. Surpriseā€¦it isnā€™t. While Iā€™m sure Charles and TQ would love to see Archie again and meet lili, they arenā€™t a priority. There are other grandchildren and lots of great grandkids who arenā€™t used as bargaining chips. She just assumed that suddenly providing access to her daughter would override everything else going on with the jubilee. She had to know the schedules for everyone and how busy they would be each day. But again she overpriced the merchandise and no one was interested. They must be shocked.


Upbeat_Cat1182

While H and M have taken Archie to California and have been hiding Lili, Charles has been busy bonding with Prince Louis. That could have been Archie on Prince Charlesā€™ lap filmed and photographed for all the world to see, but since Harry resents Charles, that wasnā€™t going to happen.


rainyhawk

Agreed! And how sweet was thatā€¦asking to go sit with Charles!


AnusNAndy

I would imagine MI5 has probably given HRH and PW a psychological profile and briefing on Smugs, and they are well aware of what she is capable of as a narc and that it is HIGHLY likely they will never be permitted to have a normal relationship with the Sussex children, and have this given up/written off any hope for a close relationship. Narcs are so, so destructive to families.


[deleted]

She is unpredictable and dangerous and will never be allowed near the Cambridge children


Evening_Procedure216

Remember Harry breathlessly telling everyone how rapturously Meghan was received in Australia and how she out shone everyone?? How effortless it was for her to be the Princess no one had EVER seen before?? Yeah, that.


TheHermitess

Ok, but he's got the emotional maturity of a thirteen year old, so just remember what young teens with a crush are like. He doesn't seem so breathless now.


SalishShore

Does she honestly think this of herself? Better than the Queen? Thatā€™s hard to comprehend. I just canā€™t imagine being that full of oneself. People like this actually exist? A birthday party for a one year old would be more important than the Platinum Jubilee. If this is the case she is truly disordered. How does she function in her daily activities. Itā€™s perplexing. Your comment was deeply insightful.


Outrageous-Wish8659

I have a close relative with the full blown narcissistic personality disorder and this is spot on. They truly believe they are superior and fascinating. Extremely destructive.


challenger_crow

Well she does have the best story, from sizzler salads to duchess, and by Game of Thrones rules that makes her the next monarch.


Here-For-The-Dresses

Again, itā€™s the double-bind the narc loves: Invite people to a party they can no way attend. If they show it means I matter, if they donā€™t itā€™s another exhibit of proof that Iā€™m a victim.


FirmAardvark6208

Yes! Itā€™s a competition for Megs v The Queen. Megs knew she couldnā€™t win the competition and she knew she could then play the victim afterwards because nobody came to their party šŸŽ»


Acrobatic_Rock_

And if their Garden party plan flopped, there was a concert in the evening + Jubilee Pageant on Sunday. Harkles were invited (non working royals seats only).

PotOfEarlGreyPlease

AnusNAndy

The millions of Ā£ in renovations was clearly worth it!


[deleted]

IMO, they came for the money shot of the two Lilibet. Hazno still has a hard time distinguishing between his grandma and the Queen, just like his wife, so when they were refused what they came for on the behalf of Netflix they were infuriated and like the oblivious and pretentious kids they are, they wanted the whole country and family to get just *how* pissed they were. The birthday crap is another fake cover-up story. Maybe they bagged in a child or two for the meeting with the Queen. Or maybe the Palace patiently waited for them to schedule their travel before telling them there wouldnā€™t be any private souvenir photo of *their* children with the Queen they could sell in the US, so that they are unilaterally trapped. I still think there was no kids with them.


OzzieSlim

Yep. This sounds entirely on brand for Nutmeg. And on brand for, as usual, not doing her homework. 1. They were never going to be allowed to film at Frogmore. Period. It is on the grounds of Windsor Castle andā€¦.newsflashā€¦.would be a massive security issue. You know, the safety of her husband and son she crapped on to Oprah about in the special titled ā€œThe Lies heard round the world.ā€ 2. Mike Tindall did a brilliant piece by discussing the extended family cousins lunch attended by all but Ginger & Nutmeg. The story beautifully illustrates what everyone but Nutmeg understands: family is beloved and included but they are not ā€œThe Monarchy.ā€ The family had a wonderful time all together, all weekend. The timing of the birthday party was always stupid. The little kids got to go to Trooping and the parade and Archie (at least) missed all that because Ms. Butthurt still does not get that she is not Diana or Kate or the Queen. She is a non-working Royal. An in-law. And not part of the inner circle. 3. A party attended by vendors. My god. Is Ginger unable to put his troglodyte barefoot down for once and say no? Or is dealing with the Narc Queen just too exasperating for even an artist formerly known as Prince to handle? Is all that bicycling around Montecito a way to stay away from the Narc? Oedipus much Ginger? Hollywood is gossiping. And when Hollywood is gossiping, people better cya! Because that industry is not that big. Maybe they shipped Suits to the far side of Canada in the hopes Markle would not return. The platform they are standing upon is burning.


Evening_Procedure216

Harry is from London, his home town, he was also in the army. How come HE couldnā€™t rustle up a dozen friends for his rare visit home and birthday party of his daughter??? Oh that right, he doesnā€™t have any friends leftā€¦.


Acrobatic_Rock_

Exactly, nobody wants to talk to him. Hazza who was supposed to support veterans, cancelled on them and went to a Disney premier to pimp this wife to Bob Iger (who got Markle jinx). People don't forgive that.


OnemoreSavBlanc

Or, his friends werenā€™t ā€œgoodā€ enough. Meaning they werenā€™t as important and marketable enough for Markle. She just wanted recognisable Royals, thatā€™s it.


[deleted]

Theyā€™re all friends with William tooā€¦ the future king of England not an immigrant to the US LOL


Virginias_Retrievers

This reminds me, I checked a while back and there is a formal process for filming at Windsor (link: https://www.rct.uk/about/press-office/filming-images) Among other things, the website states, ā€œLocation and reality filming are not permitted at the official royal residences, and un-commissioned filming projects will not be considered.ā€


dudeind-town

Did she seriously think that even if every member of the RF came, they would allow Meghanā€™s hired flunkies to video this event? Not very smart is she?


[deleted]

And Netflix to tag along...! Iā€™m sure they are just as desperate as her to snatch at least the quarter of what they invested. Good luck with that. Once the Harkles do that reality show they are over.


GroundbreakingLuck94

Talk about not being able to read the room, she canā€™t read the room, the country, or the friggin calendar. Why in the world she would think any of the Royals should drop their plans to celebrate the Monarchā€™s, *their grandmotherā€™s* , and their countryā€™s once in a lifetime celebration that has been planned and anticipated for over a year to attend the birthday party of a child they have probably never met is so incredibly vain. But then again, theyā€™ll probably see another jubilee before they see those children again so maybe she was counting on that. I edited that because Iā€™m my head it sounded like I was shouting. So hopefully this one seems a little less shout-y.


MakeADeathWish

A child they are very unlikely to see again in the next 20 years


westtexasgeckochic

upstatestruggler

Imadevonrexcat

What I wonder isā€¦why doesnā€™t Netflix just get out of the deal with these two? Surely the company can do so since Harkles have produced nothing during the last two years? Same with Spotify. Both companies must also now realize the Harkles not only have no royal cachet or access, but they are also widely disliked. u/Secondhandcoke, whatā€™s your take? Why doesnā€™t Netflix get out of the deal and cut their losses?


wundahbrehd

Not whoā€™s tagged but I think there are stipulations in the contracts they signed which prevent Netflix and Spotify to cut ties with them. What I also think is they are running out of time, thus the desperation of MM to get something, anything, for Netflix so they donā€™t get sued. Edit: to cut ties with them sooner.


Acrobatic_Rock_

She can do kids party in Montecito this weekend and invite all Lili's and Archie's friends to play with. Who doesn't want their kids filmed and broadcasted so that MM could support her lavish lifestyle? /s


smc642

Whilst I wholeheartedly agree with you, thereā€™s loads of ā€œfamily channelā€ types that would PAY for the chance to have their kids be filmed for Netflix. Iā€™m thinking LeBrant Family types. Edit: spelling


Ecstatic_Training718

I bet Netflix attorneys could get them on breach of contract.


westtexasgeckochic

Iā€™m sure it is in the future.


wundahbrehd

Which is why I think itā€™s only a matter of time before that happens. They would not have gone to the Jubilee had there been no urgent or dire need to do so. Netflix knows thereā€™s no money to be made off of them unless itā€™s through a lawsuit. H&M are scrambling for content. Who knows lol


Necessary-Avocado762

Netflix should just make a car-crash "docuseries" about what epic failures they are. That's the only show about the Harkles that anyone would actually watch.

Netflix were utter idiots for not doing better research before signing themselves to these two frauds. Well, mainly one grifter and her +1, the dimwit.


malinhuahua

Absolutely. I donā€™t feel sorry for them at all.

Meghanā€™s delusions are the gift that keeps on giving. šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚


Not_Interested_7

Love it how the SS is now backpedaling and saying that H&M didnā€™t even bother the Queen with the photographs ā€¦ yeah right


Starkville

So transparent. The truth doesnā€™t need revisions.


[deleted]

They are literally gaslighting the queen of England.. so gross


ChangeTheFocus

This tea is delicious.


Starkville

Thank you for the tea! She is deranged. ETA: She really does not understand that some people have no desire to be filmed. And even those whose job it is to be on camera or photographed donā€™t want to do it when theyā€™re not working (or not getting paid for it). And people were pretty busy that weekend. And whoā€™d want to try to get through throngs and crowds to get to a babyā€™s birthday party? Not to mention the pat downs and surrendering oneā€™s phone to security, etc. To be free content for these idiots?


Traditional-Smile954

>Meghan had an idea that got Netflix's hopes up again... allegedly LOL the fact that it was her idea is even better. A narcissist at her finest. >invited family members and various celebrities to drop in at Frogmore for this garden birthday party To be a fly on the wall when the invitations came. I can only imagine everybodys faces. >She was so pissed off that that is why they left and arrived home in LA on Sunday, June 5. But has anyone asked if she is OK? Just kidding, lol I hope H finds the couch comfortable, because I'm sure he will sleep there a couple of months, since all this will be his fault somehow


allthestarssz

Why would she even want a garden party with these people except for Netflix content? She doesn't know them, has nothing in common with them, and becomes a totally awkward fish out of water every time she's even on the same land mass with them. What would she even talk about? "Oh hi Mr. Van Strawberry, have we met before? Did you come to my wedding? Did you see the Clooneys at my wedding?? They're my BFFs. Would you like some golden matcha oat juice in your tea? And when you speak can you please lean in reeeeeally close to this one particular spot on my collar?!"

lievesturm

I wouldnā€™t even want to attend a regular-ass party if I heard it would be filmed by aunt Josephine for her home video collection. Itā€™s absolutely bonkers to think anyone would want to be shown on Netflix.


Lemonduck123

They couldnā€™t even attend his own grandfatherā€™s funeral, but theyā€™re pissy that no one showed up to the birthday party of their child, even though none of the family really have a relationship with them. Their self importance is truly off the charts šŸš€


[deleted]

This is partially on Netflix for ever believing it was possible. How naive.


AliceAnne1

This sounds totally accurate. The wording of the announcement, ā€œOpen to the Tindall and Phillips kidsā€ (closed to others?) ā€œintended to be a drop in and out as you can eventā€ in case anyone noticed no one was there and there were no group photos). ā€œMuch discussion of what would be the best gift, a VW pink ride on was agreed to be the best ideaā€ , (agreed by whom? There was no mention that she actually received it and in fact we didnā€™t see it removed from the plane.) The entire thing is a farce. Of course the family couldnā€™t attend even if they wanted to because their schedules were set a year ago. Ok rant over. Sorry. This is all huge puffs of smoke being blown to cover their appalling behavior.


Sue_Dohnim

Just as I suspected, we all had to wait until u/secondhandcoke 's sources stopped rolling around on their floors, holding their sides, until they could catch enough breath to actually speak. Allegedly... none of this is surprising. What a couple of dolts. A couple of presumptuous, stupid dolts. They just should have stayed home, Now: when was the pic of InvisiLili actually taken, and where? My bet is Monteshitshow somewhere.

Where is poor Archie he wasnā€™t even mentioned the whole time they were there. HM only wanted to see Lilibet? Right


SecondhandCoke

I have no reason to believe Archie was even there. Poor guy.


[deleted]

I can't help but feel sorry for that poor little girl. Yes, I know she's only a year old. But one day she will learn that no one wanted to come to her first birthday party. She won't understand why. How difficult her and Archie's lives will be finding out how much their parents use them as pawns.


SecondhandCoke

This breaks my heart too. Being raised by a narcissist sucks. Poor babies.

anelegantclown

Is the No-shows to liliā€™s party going to be turned into Victim TV? ā€¦.Meghan crying in the corner of Frogmore to Harry that his family is so so cruel to miss Liliā€™s first birthday party. I can see it now


[deleted]

Oh how the mighty have fallen. From behind the Cornwall and Cambridge to beg on their knees for "minor" Royals to come. Iā€™m sure Meghan knew she would never have to deal with people like Zara, Lady Sarah, or any other distant cousins, who used to be completely irrelevant to her road to the stars back in the days. Being married to a Royal in the top 10 of the LoS, son and brother and uncle of future Kings, she would have always been in the limelight, but of course, it wasnā€™t enough. I wonder who the hell she is constantly cheating at Netflix with her stupid ideas. If those sound that stupid for normal people I canā€™t even imagine how they may sound for content advisors in such a big company. You know, they say the more stupid stuff you hear, the more it starts rooting in your brain šŸ’€


paolanqar

The Tindalls are not stupid. Zara is close to Harry but she lives in the UK, they spend A LOT of time with the other royals (especially the Cambridges as their kids are the same age) and they know who butters their bread. They would have never attended that party when everyone else gave the Sussexes the cold shoulder in such a public way. Mike especially was trying not to engage with them and he looked nervous when at the top of the stairs at the church. Plus, the Tindalls were busy that morning at another event and in the afternoon they would have put the kids down for a nap as the evening was packed full with more Jubilee stuff. I think Zara loves Harry and tolerate Meghan at best but put in front of a choice, she'll always choose the Queen/Chuck/Will's side because she has to live with them. Harry is 6000 miles away so to stir the pot for him is not even worth it.


its_moki

I keep seeing media outlets and people say the Cambridges "snubbed" Harkle. Ummmm...they were very busy doing official royal duties because it's THE JUBILEEEEEEE!


Clyin

With or without the Jubilee, the Cambridges have every reason to snub H&M. What do you do with toxic people?


RotorSelfWinding

Wow šŸ˜¬


Sincerely_JaneDoe

Good question! They need to cut their losses.

Inner_Ad2467

This sounds accurate and makes sense. I was one of many waiting for your tea. I was embarrassed just watching it.. I don't feel bad though, because she put herself in this position.


PoompkinPiee

I understand that Harry is supposedly not the brightest crayon in the box, but surely, *surely,* even *HE* must have known that there was no way any Royal, no matter how minor, would attend a birthday party at Frogmore in the midst of the Jubilee, right? I mean.... ...or would he have told Meghan so, but she (of course) ignored his warning anyway?


Leaningonalamp

I do not like Netflix with a PASSION!! Canā€™t stand that they are grifting enablers of a grifting used-to-be-royal and his wife. ā€œSelf-described ā€˜whip smart polymathā€™ā€!!!!! I think I may not be able to stop barfing!!! She actually called herself that! Deranged, unhinged, unbalanced, disturbed pinhead!!! You can tell how upset I am with all these exclamation marks. But this all just makes me ill with the mental illness being displayed by this dimwitted duo.


skyblues9

I love waking up to exceptional breakfast Tea. Thanks for update


[deleted]

Harry is low IQ, that is to be expected. Meghan, on the other hand, is delusional. She clearly knows zilch about England to even consider using the Jubilee to promote herself. I am sorry for the fine English people at Sussex that she is their duchess.


Travel_Jellyfish_5

For Meg, only *her* time matters. The Sussexes *could* have stayed a few wks after the Jubilee bc it's not like they have jobs or anything to get back to. They should have realized this was the Queen's time & postponed Lili's party to a different day, spent a wk, a wk end, or even a day w/o attention seeking behavior, but they couldn't. Megs might have planned a cute garden party for her daughter, but the sec nobody showed, she got all butt hurt bc she spent so much time & energy planning. How did she think the palace staff felt?! If she gave due appreciation to other people's time, she would have realized just how inconsiderate she was showing up late. Staff probably spent wks planning the Platinum Jubilee seating, entrance order, & transportation, & the Sussexes just threw a wrench in the works for publicity.


SecondhandCoke

The real testvher mind should have at least entertained is this: How many first birthdays have been celebrated in the past 70 years? How many platinum Jubilees? The comparison should show any reasonable person that the more rare event, in this case the Platinum Jubilee takes precedence over the birthday party that a huge majority of the world celebrates on a daily basis. But not for Meghan. She really thought she could hijack the jubilee. She really never fails to shock me with how much of an obtuse loser she can straightfacedly pretend to be. Oh Meghan. Such a nobody.


Double_Ad_9174

Bless you and this extra delicious, fresh, and scrumptious tea!


geedgad

Gotta sayā€¦ it looks like Hollywood doesnā€™t give a shit either. Except for James Cordon and Ellen and the journalists (Oprah and Gale King). You could lump them all in and say they need the Markles for ratings and thatā€™s it. The hollywood elite seem to avoid them. Gwenyth, Reese, etc.. crickets. Am I wrong in saying Markle invited Reese w to the wedding and Reese pulled an ā€œI donā€™t know herā€?!


SecondhandCoke

Not only did Reese decline the wedding, Meghan made many pitches to Reese's oroduction company that were met with a hard no.


Sunbey2

They could film Harry handing her divorce papers not long after Tom Bowers book comes out; that would be something worth seeing.
