Well the Duchess of Cambridge quote appears to come from this story, which is about early years child development

And the Duke of Cambridge quote appears to relate to his work with ivory poaching and wildlife

I'm not really seeing any Harry and Meghan style hypocrisy in either of those stories, unless the Duke goes and shoots rhinos 5 minutes after telling us plebs not to, so not really sure what your point is.

I think it is clear from the picture just how angered MM is at the outrageous intrusion of the photographer into her morning stroll

I know

Some seem to want to fanatically defend her no matter what, but that is clearly a posed shot, down to moving the baby out of the way to make sure the photographer has a clear view of her face.

The key factor throughout all of this has been hypocrisy.

+1

If she hadn't agreed to do that would she have been left alone?

This isn't the joke thread you know

SHE wants publicity as long as it depicts her as a grinning Mum (because nobody else but her has ever given birth) or hugging the less privileged & but HE wants to escape publicity because he's no longer able to cope. I already have commented that I foresee eventually he will have some sort of mental breakdown, because no way will he ever escape it, it came with the job & just his hard cheese he was born into such a weird family & world.

If he truly did want to fade out of the public eye - he could. Very easily.

However, he doesn't - in the same vein as Meghan. He wants to "change the world" using his status/position.

Do you lot have any other hobbies?

So says the person that's in this thread daily whinging about everyone else with the timerity to post in it

For what it's worth the ARRSE forums (army/military people) has a healthy topic on Megs and Harry too, maybe you could pop over there and tell them how mumsnet they all are instead of reminding us every day, cheers

I'm not whinging I'm just watching in fascination at the somewhat grotesque delight some of you take in armchair forensically dissecting everything this woman does.

I'm sure that you think that you are are all normal, well adjusted people.

I'm not sure that a forum with a military theme precludes odd people from posting.

A posed shot taken from 300 yards away on a telephoto? Looking at the noise in the image and the softness of the picture it's been massively blown up to get that image. If it was truly posed then I would expect a better (i.e. closer and better posed) image.

The other image where she is not looking at the camera looks less cropped and also shows her holding the baby away from her face even though she's obviously not posing for the picture. Perhaps the babies head is a little too close to her head?

I would suggest that the pucture order should be :

1 looking at camera smiling because she doesn't know the camera is there.
2 looking back to security once she's spotted the pap.

Of course, feel free to continue pushing whatever narrative you like...

FWIW (nothing) I think they're video stills mostly from 50-100m away. It's noisy because it's cropped from video resolution and the light comes from whatever sun gets through the trees in a Canadian winter.

You’ve just proved his point.

The topless ones of her’s have been sent all over WhatsApp for a while.

Video stills shot from long distance? I'm sure that an expert on here assured me earlier that they were taken from very close range and were therefore set up. He even explained how you could tell this from the pictures

Yes, fisheye lens etc.

The dog passport question is up there isn’t it. There need to be some new denial categories in the daily mash.

PS William was talking about climate change with Dave A in Davos. Is there a thread calling him and Kate hypocrites yet?

[CoolHands]

I think they being massively targeted in a negative way; Kate is so wonderful and Meghan is the wicked witch. The daily mail etc love it, millions read the stories, comment, and hate, just like the diana years. Don’t blame them for clearing off.

How could he ‘very easily’ fade out if the public eye?

Video makes sense. Keep on rolling until you get the facial expression you want. I guess she was farting when the smiling picture was captured

Shush. That doesn't fit the narrative for the terminally angry.

Some in the media decided that Meghan Markle was the baddie. The easily angered, slightly sheep-like went along with it and their anger grew despite the monarchy being a load of nonsense for a long time.

It's a little like blaming immigrants for internationalisation and the UK selling off its national assets.
