You don't know what she is because she's extremely private. IOW, she's a blank canvas you can project anything onto.

DP. She clearly understands what her job is, and performs her duties well and without complaint. I’m sure even she didn’t understand fully what she was getting herself into, but she has risen to the occasion. She makes it look easy and we all know it isn’t.

PP. I agree. That's fine. She's doing her job and doing it very well. I don't think she ever had "'change the world" ambitions like Meghan, or even Diana.

She is still a blank canvas, though. We don't know anything about what she thinks or how she feels. We see her go this vigil and offer her flowers, but we can't know if it's a PR stunt or a deeply felt gesture. As such, people can project whatever feelings or values or ideas they want onto her. They can admire her or appreciate her, but they can't really love her. Not the way people loved Diana, or potentially Meghan, or anyone that they really feel connected to. You can't show empathy and warmth unless you're willing to reveal something of yourself. Kate isn't willing to do that, which is a perfectly fine choice. It just limits the affection and bond between her and the people.

Oh this was a PR stunt too and it’s not going over well.

That blank canvas isn’t going well for them. Silence is perceived as guilt.

This is also what has MM peeved but MM doesn't realize that this is/was the price to the position.

Kate isn’t known to show up to things like these so is she stayed away nobody would have realized; she or her handles put her in this no win situation.

Really? Well who took the pic? Don’t tell me she walked with her personal photographer or she alerted the tabloids she was going to be there!

Haha. It was just a random person who recognized her — and happened to have a professional lens abd camera while walking around—and tabloid contacts. Nothing to see here. Totally random person...

You can get professional quality photos with iphone camera, adn anyone can contact a tabloid with a photo or video of a celeb.

DP. An iPhone photo will not look professional quality when published.

No one would have noticed if she didn’t go. She never has gone to anything like this before. I don’t blame her because I think she just does what she’s told. But their PR people are total amateur hour. It’s absurd.

They need to fire their advisers ASAP...a string of bad PR stunts in the last couple of days. Why they always make them use the kids when they getting negative press?

This was clearly a PR stunt. If it was genuine she would have worn a mask. She intended to be photographed and recognized. She does it because she is told to do it. What a miserable existence. MM does it because she’s a social climber. Both are awful. MM was just not willing to sell her soul like Kate did.

No, don't just dig up tweets. Watch the posted video. It was a real gesture. Not a "stunt".

I agree with this tweet. I saw the cards on Instagram and thought it was so weird. Of course I expected them to post something about celebrating mothers since it’s Mother’s Day here but was surprised to see the three cards to Granny Diana. It felt like a very strategic post to go along with Kate’s visit to Clapham Commons. They need to stop. However, on the other hand, if they keep doing this kind of stuff people will no longer be talking about how Charles is racist. So I guess maybe a seeming sibling rivalry and odd PR stunts, that are clearly stunts, is better than the headlines being about racism in the RBF.

Why does Diana practically get to be Harry’s brand but anything William does in regards to her is PR? They posted about her last year for Mother’s Day as well. In 2017 William did a documentary where he talked about keeping “Granny Diana’s” memory alive for his children. Why does Harry get to constantly bring her up and make being his “mothers son” a huge part of foundation but William’s not allowed to speak about her at all?

For some reason H (&M) fans love to invalidate any trauma and grief William may have felt at her death. He’s less in your face with how it affected and continues to affect his life than Harry. He is also less splashy about what he does so they assume if they haven’t heard about, he’s not doing anything.

They also assume that if he doesn't emote about it constantly, he doesn't care.

Because Meghan is playing the role of Diana in this drama. Mean royal family. Mental health issues, etc. Only thing different is treatment by her spouse. But, then Harry was never going to be King.
