I am visiting with my daughter and listened in on a Skype chat she had with 8 of her friends in U.K. today - 4 of them together with their husbands were attendees at the Garden Party - they were all very excited and enthusiastic.  Age group mid 30's professional people all working.   All living in London.

 

Main remarks were how in love Harry & Meghan were, lovely looking, etc but all thought Harry has married a 'mother' figure as she was definitely in charge and 'he seems to need that as since he lost his mother he has been lost - going 'wild' at times unlike William who is tougher she seemed to guide him not the other way around'.  Their remarks not mine.

 

I was not part of the discussion but it did make me think another viewpoint as Harry, I think, is very sensitive and probably listening to these young people made some sense to me.  I think Meghan has her hands full but also she will cope as she looks determined.

I think their assessment seems to be right!

I had the same thoughts when I saw this article.  Her gesture is totally out of line.  Also, read about her BF and her planned "pippa moment" at the wedding.  All choreographed movements INHO.  Hope I am wrong.

@Hoovermom

 

I took that pic as a show of comfort and support to Harry.

 

Harry & Meghan have been more openly affectionate, even in their engagement announcement photos, than any Royals have ever been.

 

That's part of what I like about them, but that's just me.

[ Edited ]

I think the hand on his back is sweet, often do the same thing myself.  Well, I don't put my hand on Harry's back but I do on my husband's Smiley Very Happy

 

Random thoughts, that couple looks mighty good coming or going !

 

What is the "Pippa moment" ?

 

Was thinking about Wills/Kate - Harry/Meghan relationship.

 

As the Queen is 92 and  Prince Charles is almost 70, William will most probably be ruling someday.   That puts him and Kate in a totally different realm than Harry and  Meghan who will, of course, be expected to carry out royal duties but also have much more freedom to be  themselves.

 

I cannot imagine the pressure of knowing that every single time I stepped out of my house I would be expected to look and act "royally".   Meghan does have the advantage of being in the public eye and covered by the press so that should help her a lot.  

 

Also very happy to see well dressed women wearing hosiery !

So let me understand this correctly, summation of a few pictures of the newlyweds indicates, Duchess of Sussex- *drumroll* is up to no good.

Also, apparently, pictures not even of the newlyweds (referring to the alleged plot by Meghan's friend Jessica Mulroney).  Dun dun dunnnnnn! Woman LOL

Re: Daughter's friends at Charles' Garden Party comments

Okay, earlier in a thread, perhaps this one, a poster mentioned something about a book that reveals why Ms. Markle and Husband #1 split.

 

I would like to know this story if anyone read it.

Are they all psychics?  I don't how someone would pick up on all of that from standing with hundreds of other people at public event that planned.
