It’s really not anyone’s name. Harry’s last name is Mountbatten-Windsor, but ONLY direct descendants of the queen/king can use that last name, meaning not Meghan since she married in. So maybe to get even she’s going to pretend Sussex is her last name, which is fairly bizarre considering it’s a principality she has her duchess-ship over, not an actual surname. Very strange |
Did anyone else find Meghan’s aesthetic incredibly dated? Maybe because I spend time on TikTok and gen Zs are always making fun of millennial beige and the kind of twee “bundles of flowers in mason jars” look that was big in the 2010s. But I just kept thinking the whole thing was such a blast from the past- from the overly curated, instagram perfect styling to the empty platitudes about “we all can come together with love” or “wine night!”… it really seemed like something straight out of 2016. As a fellow millennial close in age to Meghan it was actually kind of depressing |
Can you allude to anything? The moment with Mindy Kaling seemed very cutting in a passive aggressive way- is this how she normally behaves? |
It’s not that strange if you know anything about the royal family. They usually use their title as their surname. Harry and William both used “Wales” as their last name in the military; Will’s kids were “Cambridge” until Will and Kate became Prince and Princess of Wales. https://www.foxnews.com/entertainment/william-kates-children-using-new-wales-last-names-following-title-change.amp https://people.com/royals/prince-george-prince-charlotte-prince-louis-new-surnames-under-king-charles-iii/ |
No, I don’t, and I’m in my mid-30s so younger than you and Meghan. I didn’t realize the concept of wine night at home with friends was “dated” |
The beige thing goes way back to her influence by Carolyn Bessette Kennedy, who died in a plane crash with JFk Jr in 1998. Bessette Kennedy was known for wearing Calvin Klein inspired outfits in beige and black Her style was very influential . There are photos of Meghan doing exact copies of the outfits. |
I loved you in "Suits." |
Sure, but "sad beige" is also a trend, or has been throughout the 2010s before Gen Zs started clowning on it. https://www.today.com/parents/family/sad-beige-rcna65116 It has been a hallmark of elder millennial style, the pared down, all white/brown/beige monochromatic thing, matching the similar all white/brown/beige kitchen. And what once seemed kind of chic, new and fresh, now looks incredibly dated and like a throwback to the mid 2010s, which was Meghan's heyday. Anyone who stays on top of trends knows that this kind of thing looks very out of date now and Gen Zs are always making fun of these stylistic choices. And for good reason- once you kind of pan out you realize how kind of ridiculous and overly stylized/ self conscious it often looks. |
If youre in your mid-30s I'm likely younger than you, and much hipper given the sound of things. If you truly think the beige mason jar aesthetic is still cool... congratulations, you're officially middle aged. https://nypost.com/2023/11/03/lifestyle/interior-designer-says-gen-z-judges-you-about-your-decor/ |
I know plenty about the royal family, and you might find this video educational, since you seem fairly clueless https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cixbj3WARJI |
That's not educational, that's just a video with a woman b itching about Meghan. That says nothing about the concept of royals using their titles as surnames, which, btw, you didn't even acknowledge. |
Couldn't last more than a few minutes. Extremely shrill and smug. |
You must not have watched it, she didnt spend almost any time "bit ching" (classy use of language- are you from a lower socioeconomic background?) about Meghan, she was literally explaining the intricacies of royal names across various countries. But then you seem highly uneducated and classless, so not a surprise you cant follow a 10 minute video. |
Lol. No, I can follow a ten minute video. I just don't want to when it's the royal family version of a Megyn Kelly or Candace Owens podcast. I'm not gonna listen to someone yell about something inconsequential for 10 minutes. |
Considering youre squatting on this thread arguing with everyone about it, you obviously find the issue of her surname fairly consequential. Just say you have no attention span and have brain rot and go. |
