Meghan's issues with the Press do not appear to be going away anytime soon

That's never going to change.... unfortunately she is their scapegoat.

But luckily for the staff at KP they won't have to worry about Meghan much longer, since she and Harry are moving offices to BP.

Clickbait. Nothing new.

Seriously, being ambitious and hardworking is suddenly a bad word! - only at Kensington Palace staff.

I can't believe so many people are taking tabloid muck-raking as truth.

**soapstar** · #**285** 03-25-2019, 03:14 PM

Comments about other members of the BRF, as well as comments speculating that the KP staff are working with the media to smear Meghan, have been deleted. Let’s stay on-topic and make sure opinions are based on factual information and not merely speculation, please.

Per the forum rules: “Whenever possible, opinions should be based on factual information obtained from reputable sources and should be backed up by references to those sources.”

I am disgusted to see the likes of Tatler seemingly picking up stories from crazy, racist tumblr-land. "Me-gain" is a common insult that originated from some of the very worst of the anti-Meghan tumblr blogs.

As it is, I highly doubt the KP staff would use this term or any other derogatory term for the royals they work with.

ACO · #**287** 03-25-2019, 05:22 PM

Says more about the staff than Meghan. Not that I believe it. Meghan is forever their scapegoat but even that article made little sense and while trying to attack Meghan they managed to trash the BRF as a whole.

There always has to be a devious plot or a underlying conspiracy when there are changes made that involve the royal family and how they operate things. Its the nature of the beast to dig out and find any reason for discord or discontent lurking in the shadows behind palace walls. Why? Because people eat it up and come back for seconds.

This isn't a popularity contest and it isn't about oneupmanship in the royal rank and file and there's no plot featuring an evil Queen and a poisoned apple with a dashing Prince Charming in the wings on his white horse at the ready to kiss the damsel's troubles away. However, it does point to a happily ever after in that the "Firm" runs smoothly as a well greased machine serving *all* the working royals of "Team Windsor". That's the ticket a lot of people are missing. The "Team Windsor" part. The all for one and one for all that is the glue that holds the "Firm" together in the first place.

Businesses adapt and change with the times and their needs. The "Firm" is no different. Its a well known fact that the "Firm" has always thought and planned ahead to the future hence the name of the now defunct panel called the "Way Ahead" group.

What I think is a very positive slant to all of this is that HM, The Queen is able to be involved with just about every angle of assuring that the monarchy goes into the next reign as smoothly as possible and will be able to see the changes be implemented. From the renovation of BP to the generation of her grandchildren that are supporting the monarchy established in meaningful roles with ample staff and support behind them and preparing to welcome yet another great grandchild into the fold.

I totally agree. If it were another royal such as Anne or Sophie the media would commend them for "never stopping" and being hard workers, though with Meghan she's either pushy or overbearing. It was similar with Catherine when she first married into the BRF, though now she has a family and there's a new royal to bait, the tabloids have moved on.

Cocoasneeze · #**290** 03-26-2019, 04:06 AM

I'm curious, why is almost every unfounded, negative article about Meghan posted on here? As I've understood, there has to be some facts backing posts up, and that Dailymail article contradicts itself from one paragraph to the next.
All of this has been discussed here previously, Amy moving overseas, and the other staff quitting "because of Meghan". That Dailymail article basically is actually incorrect, and yet it is posted here.
And Meagain is the mock name tumblr tinhats have named Meghan. The same tinhats who accuse her of faking this pregnancy and wish harm for her.

MARG · #**291** 03-26-2019, 06:36 AM

I am in total agreement. Why anyone would ever consider the Daily Mail as anything other than trash is beyond me.

I am also confused when the mods say to treat individual journalist with respect for their job and yet Piers Morgan became a part of the news about Meghan when he attacked her morals and motives on GMB, followed it up with interview with her family giving them a very public platform.

His last stunt was a 15 minute rant about his personal opinion of her, again on breakfast TV. What do we do when a "journalist" is as vile as her family. He is now part of the narrative and to pretend otherwise is counter-intuitive.

Jacknch · #**292** 03-26-2019, 09:56 AM

Please note that posts ignoring the earlier Mod note have been deleted. Further, let's move on from discussing the recent article since it adds nothing new to the topic of the thread.

Winnie · #**293** 03-26-2019, 10:14 AM

I believe that just because people are getting so hyped up and panties in a twist over any tabloid articles shows perfectly that these reporters are earning their big money and laughing at you. Any intelligent reader must realize that most is made-up and fake news using probably less than one percent of facts. Just stop reading and commenting. You know they have people viewing every site or forum out there and collecting their interest points to make their editors and publishers proud. Just stop buying and reading and certainly commenting. That is the way to stop this garbage. Once again they will turn their evil brains to other subjects if you ignore. Reporters can't stand to get no attention or disregarded.

Rudolph · #**294** 03-26-2019, 10:23 AM

Not everyone listens to podcasts so here's an article about the staffing situation with Harry and Meghan

Just don't make bullies and liars rich by cicking. Reading gutter press is not an innocent pastime

Rudolph · #**296** 06-01-2019, 10:08 PM

Apparently Harry and Meghan will share a private secretary. DM has a staffing update.

They just filled the gap between the idea of their own office and actually implementing it. Has nothing to do with Harry or Meghan or a feud or a split but was always in the works? A total move put in place and implemented by the "Firm"?

Makes sense to me.

Fair point, I am sure a number of the appointments were temporary to allow the couple to settle in, then make their own choices. It was a new situation for Meghan, time for everybody to find their feet.

That, or they were weighing the option of either beefing up the KP office or splitting and wanted to just sort of flll positions in short term while the pros and cons of each were sorted out. The tone of some of the inside source comments being quoted here and there said to me that there were staff hoping to keep them at KP (which might make some of the present folks in effect more senior, by way of having new folks under or at least less tenured than them) and others ready to divide and conquer, so to speak, with everyone just sure that their own preference would prevail.

Hallo girl · #**299** 06-04-2019, 12:26 PM

It might have been more innocent than that, just time to settle in
Nothing more sinister than that. Who is to know the ' insider comments ' are true.

Family news for the Sussexes- they have a new nanny with a NDA

https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.eto...s-126864%3famp

Frankly I don't see why other royal family members don't have their staff sign NDAs. There may be the prestige of working in a royal household but from what I hear the pay is not that great. Plenty of incentive to run to the tabloids or strike a book deal. Paul Burrell is airing Diana's laundry long after she has passed. It's probably why the Sussexes don't have staff - they are taking their time vetting potential employees.
