Harry and Meghan

Team Sussex have released a statement via Omid Scobie

I mean its a bit much to claim you're not dwelling on what happened 4 years ago when you released a documentary in December dwelling on your entire time in the royal family. Also the interviews, documentary and the book gave the tabloids more fodder than they could ever have hoped for, its a bit much to claim its the tabloids who are creating all of this, also the Telegraph isn't a tabloid

I think the Telegraph is probably the only British newspaper that isn't going into the courts to battle with H&M! I see Valentine Low is retracting his charge that it was a leak by the Sussexes as he has received some letters from their lawyers. He also claims that he got them from Buckingham Palace. Whatever happened to ''Never explain, never complain''?😉

So what IS the reason for the Dutchess not attending the Coronation? I’m very happy not to believe anything written in any UK tabloid- but somewhere between the cryptic press releases of H&M that frankly say absolutely nothing but usually take over 3-400 words to do so and the stories of the tabloids, there’s the truth.

Considering she hasn’t been seen much publicly lately I do wonder about her mental health. If she did what Harry intends to do which is fly in that morning, attend the service then fly back to LA that afternoon, she wouldn’t have to interact with the public -seems a pity to miss such a big occasion

Meghan says it's 'frankly ridiculous' that she's missing the coronation because of a letter she sent Charles over royal racism and 'unconscious bias' - after reports said she was unhappy with King Charles' response

That’s simply not true as it’s been reported in many outlets that she was invited unless you can provide some evidence that she wasn’t?

The lengths some other posters on here will go to to pin something on Meghan and Harry is a bit disturbing. Clearly projection and personal bias are playing a major part. They’re not angels are quite daft in themselves in my opinion but they’re not evil psychos.

It makes sense to me that the palace and press are leaking and making up Meghan and Harry stories now for clicks, press and publicity. Particularly the media. No one cares about the coronation besides and it’s not generating much public interest. The only way to keep it in the news at present is from the Meghan and Harry circus. This is a bad reflection on the Royals themselves, an institution should not be relying on such tactics to survive or stay relevant. It’s a short term solution that will eventually wear thin. I suspect William and team are behind a lot of the leaking - he seems completely consumed with anger and distain towards Meghan and Harry about their behaviour, interviews and books. It also allows him to remain the ‘sensible’ safe pair of hands brother and heir to the throne. Himself and Kate also don’t seem that happy, more like business partners.

Nope. If she wasn't invited, Harry would not be going. Even the Royals would understand that at this stage.

I think she was invited. Of course she would be. Last week, after months of will-they-won't-they speculation when it was made known she wouldn't be going then it was all that she was being an empowered mother for Archies sake as it coincided with his birthday. Fair enough. Yet now it is that an unsatisfactory reply about unconscious bias was received from Chuck. This kind of spoon feeding drivel winds the people you are concerned about up so much. It is car crash stuff. There is a grey area because they rarely state much of anything matter of factly. Ironically it is this grey area which leaves room for media/social media speculation and the consequent coverage they always complain about. Someone cynical might think it is all deliberate and this common sense approach is avoided as this grey area can't be monetised.

They are private citizens now. They are free. They are no longer beholden to the strictures of it all. Open up a Twitter account. Restart The Tig. Give it straight from the horses mouth and cut out the flying monkey/third party/proxy bullshit communication. I would hazard that all this click bait and speculation frenzy would dilute over time. Nature abhors a vacuum but maybe this toxic and childish media spinning is the only thing capable of retaining waning interests. As it is then what we are seeing, and will continue to see, is spin from Team Sussex and spin from the general media. What should actually be disturbing is that grown ass adults feel part of a Team. It is cultish.

For a good insight into this mindset you should follow Myra on Twitter. Tin foil hat types think this is actually Meghan posting incognito given the original content (e.g. unseen pictures etc.) but there is benefit of the doubt and assuming it isn't Meghan herself then it is someone so clearly devoted to them that it is unhinged. Spoiler: Harry and Meghan are awesome. The Royals are evil bastards and you can only post if you agree with the sentiments posted. 🙄

The Royal Family doesn't want her there but they (presumably) invited her. How does that work? I doubt she or a Scobie type acting as a proxy messenger could contain themselves about a snub like that. It would provide fuel for the racism angle. I also doubt Harry would acquiesce if his wife was snubbed. He'd be perfectly right to tell them to go and do one.

Because it is completely insulting to him that they would not include his wife.

QEII has died. Not the same RF anymore.

H&M need to be connected to the Royal Family (regardless of who's at the head of it) so they can try to leverage off that relationship in order to make money. Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet's titles were "claimed" by H&M since the Queen died. Yes, those titles, which they weren't going to take up originally.

I know. But Harry & Meghan got on well and respected her. Out of respect Meghan would turn up for her.

She can’t attend, the South Park placards would damage her brand.

Remember when Meghan reportedly said she would break up with Harry if a statement was not issued about racist press treatment. He did as he was told. Now the same is expected from the Palace in requesting that a similar statement be made about the racist remark. Meghan wants an acknowledgement of there being unconscious bias and better yet wants the public apology they've long been talking about. Harry teed it all up with Tom Bradby saying they never said racism but that it was unconscious bias. It was the evil press who drove a wedge between them by saying they accused them of racism. He had it himself, Meghan saved/educated him and he wants to help his family. The heroes and the victims at the same time. So with the invite gone out another request for this statement/apology was made conditional for her attending. The Palace gave a firm nope/take it or leave it/GTFO. Meghan blinked and retaliated. A statement made about nonattendance. The Palace acknowledged that news quickly (lol).

Now in desperation there was the likley leak of the letter exchange done via the Telegrah to limit the damage and give her target audience in the US all the background about why she is not attending. An article now in its 8th iteration. Couple that with a proxy statemement from Team Sussex. Effectively, I hold no grudges but I got no satisfactory response about what Harry and I know was unconscious bias and, taking this into account, I won't be attending. It is done to aggrandise on being principled but also stick the boot in i.e. they will never change, I tried to help them, they were mean and cold to us, waagh etc. What makes them so laughable is the remark about her living in the present while covertly dredging up material from years before. All this song and dance knowing if they did go it would simply be a copy and paste deal of the Jubilee (show up, get glared at, Major Johnny keeping an eye, second row if they're lucky, mini van to Heathrow, bye bye). They can't monetise that so they've kept on brand as "Victims" instead. Just my take on the shenanigans.
