Harry and Lilibet

chessylady — Tue, 11 Mar 2025 03:09:08 GMT

A photo released by Meghan shows Harry holding Lilibet on a boat. Sadly, they were breaking California law which requires any child under thirteen to wear a life preserver vest while in a moving boat. Lilibet did not have a life vest on. Possibly the boat was not moving but if it was me, I would make sure my child was wearing a life vest even if the boat was not moving.

@chessylady As a boat owner, when I saw this picture I noticed it right away! This is unacceptable and I was surprised the picture was shared on social media. Whether or not the boat was underway doesn't matter. Anywhere near the water (obvious it's open water) or on a dock, small children should have a life vest on. They're going to get a lot of grief about this, as they should. Also, who owns the boat? The boat owner is also responsible for ensuring children are wearing life vests. Even when the boat isn't moving.

He looks like he's sitting on a lounge on the beach. They never show the child's face so photos are useless. Why do they bother?

When there are flattering photos of Harry, Megan and the kids, people here rip them apart, and say they are AI or doctored photos. Photos of this family here are on,y meant to incite, never compliment. JMHO.

as far as the life jacket that is correct. Under no circumstances should any child be without, like a car seat. I have had family post photos of their baby without on paddle boat in dock, and they never heard the end of it. Next photo we saw child was puffed up in life jacket. lol as shoukd be. Although they had one on, took it off when they docked.
but, as for this family.... they can't win for loosing, not here anyway. Tomorrow this thread will have 150 posts, negative

Sadly, Meghan and Harry get villainized no matter what they do. If I were in their position, I wouldn't show my children's faces either. Many other celebrities do the same and aren't criticized.

Whose thumb is that in the photo? Perhaps another poor photoshop.

Never can get a clear photo with that group.

Maybe the boat is not moving. They might just be sitting in it.

What is wrong with people? They have no obligation to show the kids' faces. Based on new CA laws regarding celebrities' minor children, they are smart to do so.

William and Kate continually parade their kids around photographers like they are trained seals. Go look at their kids. Photos of them are everywhere.

Dammmed if they do, and dammmed if they don't.

Looked like they were on a lounge chair to me. But if it was on a boat, it was staged. None the less. I don't think the back of someone's head is a picture. And that's all they ever show. Very odd people.

@chessylady Thank you for sharing this pic!

I just love seeing Harry hugging & kissing his small daughter, And how she's curled up, tightly, on his lap, really close, both, just taking it all in. Being together. Very endearing.

Reminds me of my beloved, late Dad & myself. That kind of hugging is so reminiscent to me. And always sitting with me, no matter when or where.

She uses her children, and their image when she wants the public to flood her website or social media. I’m not surprised.

It doesn't look like a lounge chair, you can see the side of the boat.

Why such a fuss over a picture where you can't see her face. That could be any kid...

The boat might have been in another place besides California so not breaking any law. This is a perfect example of when you run all over criticizing other people in public , example: Kate won't let me borrow her lip gloss, William is balding, on and on. People won't hesitate to criticize you.

I don't find it funny to compare a child with a trained seal.
