Meghan Markle and Prince Harry News and Updates

And this was when he was still a working royal, not a *private!* citizen of LA. I guess networking with Disney's Bob Iger and Beyonce was more important.

Excellent point.

[/b]Meghan Markle 'had help from Palace aides' to write letter she sent to her father Thomas at centre of privacy case with the Mail on Sunday, court documents claim[b]

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-8954397/Meghan-Markle-help-Palace-aides-write-letter-father-Thomas.html

What does that even mean though? It says:

Jason Knauf, who was Communications Secretary to the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge and the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, 'and/or others in the Kensington Palace communications team contributed to the writing of the letter', they told the High Court.

How do they not know who helped? And either way...wouldn’t that just mean that it was the intellectual property of her and Jason? So how would that help their argument that they had the right to publish it?

But he’s not royalty here; we don’t have royalty in the USA, and the gestures and traditions that carried great weight and significance in England have no real meaning or impact here.
All of the gravitas is gone - poof. That has to be hard.

He needs to honor the dead with a professional photographer documenting everything?

DP. I have a family member who is a Korean War vet that has done something similar for Veterans Day. Does not seem that weird.

He hired a photographer to take pictures of him placing flowers at graves? My father was a WWII, Vietnam and Korean War vet and woukd never have drawn attention to himself for paying his respects to his fallen comrades.

PP. so what? Even if that were true (which the time span from WWII to Vietnam seems unlikely) your father isn’t some special authority on what my relative or any other vet does.

This article sums up the yuck factor of their personal pap walk at the cemetery.

This underscores what their critics have been saying since Day 1: they don’t want privacy; they want celebrity. Gross.

I normally abhor the Daily Mail but they are spot on. This was a very poor choice on their part. It would have been so much better if donated to a related charity or even when themselves with no photographers.

Wow, I know the Daily Mail comments are full of haters, but this is different level incensed. Jeez, the graveyard stunt is clearly stupid, but hardly evil.

Markle and Harry are trying to ca$h in on on the sacrifice of armed service members. Meghans Mirror shows you where you can buy everything she wore to the cemetery. Yes, it is evil

What does Meghan’s Mirror have to do with M and H “ cashing in” as you call it? You’re blaming Meghan because fans like her taste in clothes? And deeming it “evil”? That’s unhinged, at best. Your public hatred, or whatever these posts mean to you, is a lot closer to “evil” than some fan’s posts about Meghan’s clothes.n

+1

Also not to encourage anyone to read the daily mail but they frequently have links to buy clothes royal and royal adjacent folks are pictured wearing.

Are the real royals getting kickbacks when somebody clicks on a DM link and buys the clothes? Is this an apples to apples comparison? Otherwise its apples to oranges if Meghan is profiting off Meghan's Mirror and creating opportunities to get dressed up and play royal to sell some clothes by parading around in cemeteries, of all places.

Is she actually linked to this website that only you have heard of?

And I think it depends on what you count as a real royal...one of Anne’s sons did a commercial wearing fake royal clothes, Sophie got in trouble back in the day for shilling access to her and Edward to a fake sheik through her PR partner, and of course there’s Andrew.....

If you wanted to know about Meghan's Mirror you could google it. Or you could just be an ass. Do your own homework if you're so curious about this website nobody but me has ever heard of.

It’s not her intellectual property
It’s not private
It’s as if you go to your pr/communication team at work and ask them write a letter to your dad.
She really doesn’t have a case they violated her copyright if her work team help her write the letter

I love this thread now that it is clear to anyone with eyes what a pair of twits these two are

[Anonymous]

This is why the private pair aren't suing the authors of Finding Freedom- They gave them private info via a third party.
The dim duo also fought to keep this out of the letter lawsuit but was denied.

It is true. He signed up right out of high school like many other patriotic Americans. Sorry you don’t know your history.

All of their antics are just beyond the pale.
It's not so much they took pictures in a graveyard but hired a professional photog so they could sell the pictures for PR.
It's not they want privacy. Everything they have done since leaving the UK says otherwise. The information coming out of the lawsuit makes it fairly clear privacy was never their priority.
Also, how can you get in bed with Netflix when they are showcasing your dear mother?
Beyond the pale.

I don't understand why people get so worked up defending the royals. They are a family but also an institution. You're either in or you're out of the institution but you'll always be family. If you put it in simple terms, H & M have quit the family tire business but are still invited to Christmas. What they've done is take their CEO titles, moved to another country that doesn't use their tires, and tried to profit off of being a CEO. It doesn't work and it's going to peeve a lot of people. Frankly, I don't want an ex-royal in America showing up or giving speeches if I agree with you or not. Take that nonsense back across the pond.

Slightly clumsy analogy but I do agree. And I'm British. I find Harry an embarrassment of the highest order now. I used to think he was ok, even when he was drunkenly rampaging around Las Vegas, it seemed vaguely familiar in a royal "spare" sense.

You’re right I don’t know your history of mental illness and psychotic delusions.

DP- This is actually easy to find out. It’s no secret that WWII vets also served in Korea. This is from Veterans affairs:
“An estimated 848,000 Korean War veterans also served in other war periods: 171,000 in both WWII and Vietnam, 404,000 only in WWII, and 273,000 only in Vietnam.“
