Une très belle et souriante personne.

I thought it was so important that duchess couple don’t get any attention?
ReplyDelete😳
Oh boy, give it a rest already 🥱
DeleteEt pourquoi, elle n’est pas une personne ?. Que c’est surprenant de telle réflexion. Ce n’est pas étonnant que le monde va si mal…
Deleteyou thought wrong. They just wanted truthful coverage, not tabloid coverage.
DeleteAnd doesn't she look great for 45?
No. They never asked for complete privacy—that is a trope pushed by hostile media. They left due to media and online abuse, as well as lack of support from the royal family who could easily have made some simple statement to diffuse the abuse. There are also significant safety threats from people who wanted to harm them and worse. These still exist. They also did not call the royal family racist. They stated that two members had wondered in conversation about the color of their future children’s skin. They stated clearly that it was not the HLM the Queen, nor the Duke of Edinburgh.
DeleteThere are still horrifying accusations about their children not being their own because of their light hair and skin. This is ridiculous and libelous. The children are 3/4 white because Meghan is mixed race. And it’s possible that Meghan’s mother has some mixed ancestry as well.
Belle photo en noir et blanc !
ReplyDeleteAll alone, on her birthday ( oh wait: a photographer and a dog)
ReplyDeleteI highly doubt she is alone. Very immature comment.
Delete🤣 Well said
DeleteHappy 45th birthday to Meghan.

Meghan isn’t 45. Her father said years ago that she was born in 1977, which makes her 49 !! And all her old schoolmates turn 50 this year !!
ReplyDeleteBut in ‘her truth’ she will be whatever age she decides!
DeleteLovely fun photos… it is always gracious to thank people who wish you well, and she does. LRB
ReplyDeleteBlack and white photos can be artistic (if a bit affected) but only with a sujet that calls for it or at least allows it with good results. This is not the case here, the s/w pics are simply not really good. The color photo would be nice if it was not so very un-spontaneous. I don't mean the dog, what it does is highly spontaneous. The duchess much less.
ReplyDeleteShe just can't help herself to want to be in the news. The pictures with the balloons, so spontaneous!
ReplyDeleteHow about a kind birthday wish?
DeleteHmm. Last set of photos coincided with Prince George’s birthday. Today, we get the lovely news of the birth of Princess Eugenie’s daughter so more photos from Meghan. Silly me. It must just be a coincidence. Seriously, could she not have waited to thank her ‘followers’?
ReplyDeleteIt is her birthday. She did not plan to have her bday coincide with those events Karen
DeleteHappy birthday Megan! Sweet photo with the cute dog.
ReplyDeleteAnd then just a small thing more: environmentally conscious people (see Harrys "sustainable tourism" enterprise or whatever it is/was) not only don't fly on private planes, they also don't buy these terrible trash balloons in their multitudes. One day, a photo, and they land in the trash. Not simply not reusable, they are not degradable.
ReplyDeleteLovely photos, full of joie de vivre. Happy Birthday to Meghan!
