The Sussexes are apparently looking forward to their romantic, childfree NYC trip

Britain's Prince Harry and Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, attend the WellChild Awards Ceremony in London

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex will apparently travel to New York this weekend for Global Citizen Live. I read Global Citizen’s press release carefully and I definitely think that Harry and Meghan are hopping a flight to New York to be there in person, that it’s not just a Zoom thing or a pre-taped appearance. This will be their first trip to New York together… that we know of. The first months of their courtship were pretty quiet, and it would not surprise me if we found out at some point that they had a weekend in New York in 2016 or 2017. Anyway, Page Six had a story about how H&M are traveling alone and it will be a romantic little mini-trip for them.

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are making their first-ever trip to New York City together — and can’t wait to explore the Big Apple in the “romantic fall,” friends exclusively told Page Six.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are due to arrive this week ahead of their appearance at Global Citizen Live on Saturday. It will be their first public trip since moving to California, and they will be in Central Park for the event that will be broadcast live.

It’s not believed that they are bringing their 2-year-old son, Archie, or his 3-month-old sister, Lilibet, for the whirlwind trip, sources told Page Six. Instead, the kids are expected to stay at home in Montecito, Calif.

The last time that Harry, 37, was in New York was in 2013, when he joined Chris Christie after Hurricane Sandy devastated the tristate area. The last time that Markle, 40, was in New York was for her heavily publicized, $500,000 baby shower in February 2019, held in the penthouse at the Mark Hotel. She flew in from London on Amal Clooney’s private jet for that trip. Months later, the “Suits” alum visited the state again to support her close friend Serena Williams in the US Open final.

[From Page Six]

I remember both of Meghan’s trips to New York in 2019. The baby shower is still referenced in the British media today as one of the worst things to ever happen to the monarchy or whatever. The trip to see Serena Williams lose in the 2019 US Open final was much more low-key for Meghan – I think she was probably in New York for less than 36 hours, and I’m not even sure where she stayed or what else she did besides go to the final. I wonder what kind of trip this will be? Paparazzi-camped-outside-the-hotel baby shower kind of trip? Or undercover lowkey tennis-watching kind of trip? Somewhere in between, who knows.

    Do we really believe any of their friends would speak to Page Six or any other tabloid?

    • taris says:

      ikr? i’m all for occasional gossip, and i love cute little sussex anecdotes but, honestly, there are some sites (most sites, actually) that have zero credibility, esp when it comes to the sussexes.
      it’s pretty obvious that they likely won’t be travelling with their toddlers cross-country in a pandemic, for what’s likely just a one or two day trip. page six is just throwing stuff to the wall here, just like pretty much every other site.

      • Pao says:

        @taris: they might bring lili Diana because, if they are doing it anything like Archie, she’s most likely still being breastfed.

      • ThEHufflepuffLizLemon says:

        @Pao-she might have gotten far enough ahead to leave a few days of breast milk. My husband wanted to take our son to see his family before he went back to work, and I power-pumped for a while to get ahead of the game. We froze and packed breastmilk in tons of ice and off he went for a week with a 5 month old. I hope they are able to leave Lili at home without an issue.

    • MMadison says:

      Page Six is column found in the NY Post which is owned by the Murdoch’s. Same family that owns Fox News and the UK Sun among other things. The Murdoch’s just hired Piers Morgan to spread more hate of the Sussex’s so I doubt Harry/Meghan would allow anyone to speak to them.

      • BayTampaBay says:

        Murdoch loathes ALL the British Royals and is a small “r” republican.

        Murdoch is an equal opportunity hate spreader.

      • Alexandria says:

        If he loathes all of them equally, time to release the tea on the entire lot. Their spending, their dubious deals and connections, the Cambridge laziness, whatever the heck the Meddletons are up to, their renovations, their bathrooms…don’t even have to bring up Andrew and there’s plenty.

      • observer says:

        @alexandria
        i feel like the “opportunity” in equal opportunity needs to be emphasized.

        he’s an amoral opportunist…but um, you don’t kill the cow if you want to keep milking it?

    • Eurydice says:

      Well, the article doesn’t say that those friends are Harry and Meghan’s. Probably the person who wrote the piece went out with some friends and they “exclusively” came up with this romantic story.

    • Lorelei says:

      Yeah, I thought we pretty much decided a while ago that when it comes to pieces like this one, the “source” is the writer’s ass s/he just pulled the information from. And it only says they’re “not believed” to be bringing the children; any one of us here could have written an article saying the exact same thing—that they’re looking forward to their trip.

      But I guess they have column inches to fill, and Harry and Meghan reliably bring in the clicks. At least this one isn’t a hit piece like most of the others, it has a neutral tone (the baby shower stuff is obnoxious, but that will probably always be referenced in *any* story relating to Meghan and NYC 🙄) to it. Which is probably the best that we can expect from the trash that is Page Six.

      @Alexandria: right?! If he hates all of them, why are the Sussexes the only ones his publications consistently smear?

      @MMadison: I still get so annoyed whenever I’m reminded of the Piers Morgan deal. It’s disgraceful and it’s going to make him more smug than he already was, which is quite a feat.

      • Nyro says:

        He hates blackness way more than he hates royalty.

      • Eurydice says:

        Murdoch may hate the royals, but he loves money more. Smearing the Sussexes (that’s a nice title) is a safe way to get lots of hits. H&M wouldn’t never give him the time of day anyway, and their fans don’t have any particular clout – but the RF still has some power.

      • Lorelei says:

        @Eurydice, I wish he’d realize that they’d also get a ton of clicks/$$ if they decided to be the ones to expose William’s infidelity. He isn’t even the direct heir yet, so they could do it and still avoid saying anything negative about the Prince of Wales or their beloved Queen.

      • Eurydice says:

        @Lorelei – Well, I’d click on that for sure. But that’s the kind of story that needs real work and research – they’d have to have receipts. BP can come down hard when they want to. The Sussexes are easy – no sweat, no research, no need to even check that Queens is a borough of NYC, just copy someone else’s story and throw in a dig or two.

      • Bettyrose says:

        All this Murdoch talk reminds me how friggin excited I am about the return of Succession after they left us on an epic cliff hanger two years ago. People, plan ahead for unprecedented global pandemics and film all your seasons ahead of time!

    • Sarah11 says:

      I thought it sounded a bit odd too – “friends exclusively told Page Six”. I wondered if this was Omid Scobie making his “best guess” sound like inside information.

      • Agreatreckoning says:

        Unlikely Scobie. Sara Nathan, who wrote the piece, has deep long ties with the Daily Mail & The Sun and the wonderful world of pulling sh%t out of their asses. Omid would probably just say it himself. He doesn’t need to go to another outlet. The friends in stories like these are usually of the imaginary kind.

  2. Fanciful says:

    I can’t imagine they’ll stay long if they go. They have a baby at home. Of course the rota will say it’s the worst, most disrespectful to the queen blah blah blah. At this point who cares? They’re flying high and kinda beyond most royals

  3. BabsORIG says:

    Oh yippee, Page six had no idea what was happening with the Sussexes till this event was announced but suddenly, Sussex friends are running and blabbing to page six about the Sussexes’ plans? 🙄 Yeah okay, the said “friends” are page six writers’ hallucinations is what I believe.

    • taris says:

      yep. ‘sources’ and ‘experts’ do this all the time when it comes to the sussexes. pretending to have some window into the sussexes’ private lives is like a past time for these weirdos. it’s also such a desperate, transparent (and, i think, psychologically worrying) ploy at this point.

      if they didn’t even know about this global citizen thing, or the time magazine cover, meghan’s and harry’s books etc, beforehand, and only found out when the rest of us did, they sure as shit have no clue what h&m will be doing next.
      #fullofshit

  4. Amy Bee says:

    Key phrase in this piece is “It is believed” aka they’re as clueless about Harry and Meghan’s plans as the rest of us. Page Six didn’t know until yesterday that they were going to NY. And who are these friends that are talking to Page Six?

    It’s still upsetting that the press with the help of KP attacked Meghan for having a baby shower. It’s even worse knowing now that Meghan was suffering from suicide ideation at the time.

    • Haylie says:

      It makes me glad she and Harry got out of that hellhole.

    • lanne says:

      I’m convinced they wanted to keep her isolated in the UK away from her family and friends, and piled on the vitriol of the baby shower to further punish her and to gaslight her. They got to the number $500,000 by including the cost of the airplane ride not just for her, but for everyone else riding on the plane.

      I believe they wanted her to lose the baby and barring that, make life so intolerable for her that she would leave London with the baby and refuse to return. This was the final push in “Operation Get Rid of Meghan.” No one can convince me otherwise.

      Nasty, nasty people, those British royals and their flying monkey courtiers. And their wretched ghoul tabloid ratchets. Vile racists every one.

      • Amy Bee says:

        @Lanne: Oh definitely.

      • Becks1 says:

        They definitely wanted her isolated and the baby shower was a huge reminder that Meghan had powerful, influential, wealthy friends.

        The “funny” thing is that I dont think anyone really cared that much about Meghan’s friends or making flower arrangements at the shower or whatever – it became a big deal because the British press made it such a big deal and they really just created their own issues with that.

      • MsIam says:

        This was the narrative from the beginning. Remember that first Tatler article where they quoted some courtier or random aristo who said Meghan would have two kids, fly home to visit her mother in California and file for divorce? They didn’t expect Meghan to get pregnant so soon but other than that everything went as planned. Except the Harry leaving with her and the filing for divorce thing, lol. But I’m sure they are still holding out hope.

      • Lorelei says:

        @Lanne the baby shower is like the 100 bathrooms (and before that, the cost of the Frogmore renovation) — it’s mandatory that it’s mentioned whenever NYC comes up. It’s so, so stupid, considering it was a small event like three years ago that Meghan didn’t use a single £ of taxpayer money to fund.

        The fact that her friends paid for it probably makes them even angrier because they hate that she’s friends with people like that, who can afford it (and defend her in the press, for that matter), AND that she was friends with Serena Williams before she ever even met Harry. So they can’t even say it’s “all” because of her royal status.

        Even if I hated Meghan I’d be so tired of hearing about this baby shower, for god’s sake.

    • Merricat says:

      Their reaction to that baby shower was outrageously stupid. It removed any doubt that they were blind, screaming racists. The fact that they were comfortable showing that racism to the world tells you everything you need to know about them–and they were shocked when they realized the rest of the world saw it.

      • Becks1 says:

        I often wonder, with the baby shower, what the press reaction in the UK would have been had it not been “headlined” (so to speak) by prominent Black women like Serena Williams and Gayle King. Like had it just been Jessica Mulroney who was throwing it, and no women of color attended – what would the British press reaction have been?

      • Amy Bee says:

        @Becks: The reaction would have been the same because they’re all Meghan’s friends. BTW, the British press hates Jessica Mulroney because she was behind the scenes asking why people were being allowed to smear Meghan in the press.

      • Becks1 says:

        @AmyBee – I think it might have been the same, or close, but I do think the press hates being reminded that Meghan has wealthy black friends. It adds another layer.

      • lanne says:

        I shudder to think what they could have done to Meghan had she just been a “regular gal” like in all of those idiot “I’m a regular girl who married a Prince” fantasy movies. If Meghan didn’t have the support she has from her powerful and influential friends, she would have been utterly destroyed as a human being. Think of what the royals did to Diana, who was as connected an aristocrat as could be. Look how trapped Kate is–she doesn’t have any powerful friends. She’s completely at the mercy of the royal family.

        I wouldn’t wish marriage into the main line of the British royal family on anyone. It’s worse than joining a cult. Harry showed he was worth it by actually leaving with her.

      • Ginger says:

        The UK press and RF clearly hate that Meghan has friends. They definitely wanted her isolated. Kate really has no friends and seems very isolated. You never see her with anyone.

      • Merricat says:

        Yes, but Ginger, Kate came that way.

      • Fortuona says:

        Probably the same . The Mirror went on and on about her wearing Abigail Spencer’s hat from a show that had been cancelled 2 years before the shower as if it was a scandal

        Thing is nobody knew she was there as she was staying at Mischa Nonoo’s house until they got fed to Page 6

      • Lorelei says:

        @Merricat, yeah, but even if Kate did have friends, they’d be British randos with names like Muffy Maud Augusta von Higgenbottom, Countess of Fetherstonhaugh or something, not household names like Serena Williams or Oprah Winfrey, who all Americans (and not even just Americans— everyone knows who they are, but in this case, they’re playing to a US audience) are familiar with.

        And since their audience is composed of seething racists, it’s handy that there are a handful of WOC that they’re happy to cite as Meghan’s friends who their readers probably dislike already. I’m sure they’re not fans of Gayle King or Amal Clooney, either, since they cannot handle it when POC are wealthier and more successful than they’ll ever be.

      • Becks1 says:

        Something to mention too about Kate – her biggest support network is her family, and they are acceptable to the royals as her support network because you know what Ma Middleton is never going to do? Tell Kate she needs to get the hell out of there for her own good. The Middletons are never going to encourage Kate (or William) to walk away from their privilege and luxury and have to “actually” work.

        Meghan’s support network was very different as we’re learning – they were horrified at what she was experiencing and supported her and Harry’s decision to leave, to talk to Oprah, etc. That was a threat to the royals.

    • Izzy says:

      Exactly. Whenever I see “it is thought” or “it is believed,” those are buzzwords that mean “so-called royal reporter without a clue or access just wildly making stuff up.” Those buzzwords are how they avoid being sued for every single lie they write.

      • JT says:

        The RRs wish Kate was hanging out with famous friends for a glamorous holiday in NYC. They don’t want to spend their time writing about Kate and Pippa and their fake accents. One of the criticisms of Meg’s baby shower was why didn’t she invite Kate, which makes me think that this was talking point fed to them by KP. When has there ever been that much attention on Kate and her whereabouts? Meg in New York was pandemonium, which I actually enjoyed before the BM ruined it. The baby shower just highlighted how powerful Meghan was and how Kate doesn’t have really have friends.

    • Debbie says:

      And it’s not just that the BM (and Page Six) attacked Meghan for having a baby shower, but it was a shower paid for by her own friends! So, they speculate and make up an exaggerated amount to rile the English natives who thought they owned her. These people are just outrageous. Notice that they still managed to add in that unrelated oldie-and-goody, the dreaded “private” plane. It’s like an old band playing their vintage hits – even though it had nothing to do with a story about an appearance in NY for vaccines.

  5. AVEA says:

    I could see all the papps and tabloids trying to cover every little bit of this trip. From the car ride to the airport in California to them arriving back after the event. It’s been a while since their cash cows gave them an appearance like this one

  6. Duch says:

    I love how the “last time” Megan was in NY was for a $500K shower, oh, plus even later she was there for the Open. So uh really then the “last time” was for the Open then. They could have just said that – but no they wanted to bring up one of worst events in modern Royal history, the NY baby shower.

    • Amy Bee says:

      @Duch: I didn’t even notice that. Page Six is carrying out the British tabloids’ agenda against Meghan. Not surprising given that their sister paper is the Sun.

    • harla says:

      I noticed that too 🙁 I know that we keep asking “do they (the press) really think we’re that dense?” and Yes, yes they do because so many will focus in on that baby shower blurb and hate Meghan all over again and that’s exactly what they want.

      • Nyro says:

        Like 99 percent of the complaints about Meghan, the baby showe hatred does not play here. Baby showers are an American tradition. And rich people have fancy expensive showers. Americans are not bothered by that. In fact, we scour Instagram looking at celeb baby showers in order to get inspiration for our own. Baby showers are as American as apple pie and wanting to one day be rich is also as American as apple pie. That kind of hating doesn’t play over here.

      • Becks1 says:

        @Nyro – right, the only thing Americans are probably ticked about re: Meghan’s shower is that there aren’t pictures we can add to our pinterest boards for baby showers we’re planning, lol.

        And that’s if Americans think about it at all.

    • Shadowonfilm says:

      @duch +1
      I came here to say exactly this same thing.
      The next time they go to New York, the press will still say that this is Magann’s first time back since the $500k baby shower, other than that time for the Open and that time she went with Harry.
      These people are lunatics

    • ABritGuest says:

      Yep the actual last time she was in NYC (that we know of) was the US open trip but they wanted to throw in the baby shower with that false figure- docs lodged in court said it cost much much less than the figures the tabloids were quoting. As we saw with the New York Times piece about Obama’s party- the press love to stir up resentment about black/mixed race people having/enjoying nice things.

      Knowing now how she was feeling at the time of the baby shower & also from police report of the trip she tried to see how to make things more discreet, it’s sad that the baby shower was turned into this big scandal. She really didn’t get much peace during her first pregnancy. It was so cruel.

      I do think that the palace holding Meghan’s passport is how the press were finding out about trips like the one to Elton John’s place and possibly Ibiza (if that was true). I do think the plan was to make her miserable so that she would cut & run. Ingrid Seward & a few other royal commentators said they all expected her to return to the US in 3-5 years (probably also same thinking that brought the degree wife comment). But they didn’t expect Harry to go with her.

      Page six couldn’t tell us in advance of Global Citizen’s announcement that they would be in nyc but suddenly know their plans? Sure jan. hope they have a good trip& are able to move in silence as I am betting the paps will be on high alert.

    • Eurydice says:

      Page Six is doing some weird quibbling – Meghan was in “New York” for the baby shower, but she was later in “the state” for the US Open. Maybe they were trying to say “Manhattan” vs “Queens.” – but Queens is part of New York City and Page Six certainly knows that.

    • Lorelei says:

      @Duch lmao I didn’t even catch that. So they’re perfectly willing to contradict themselves, sometimes even in the same sentence ffs, if it means they can get one more Meghan slam in there.

      • Lorelei says:

        @ABritGuest it’s too late for me to edit my previous comment, but I just caught this — there was a police report regarding the baby shower? What on earth…?

        I wonder if they also hold Kate’s passport, or Sophie’s, or if it was just another way to exert control over the Black duchess?

      • ABritGuest says:

        @Lorelei yeah think the Fail had the report- it was about the security arrangements when she was in town & it discussed Meghan’s request to see about alternative exits where the press weren’t waiting so there was less fuss but think the hotel she was staying at didn’t have suitable alternative exit. It played against the idea that the baby shower was intended to be one big pap stroll as the British press was suggesting.

      • Fortuona says:

        Yes they were staying at Misha’s house off the grid until they were spotted the day before and took to the hotel and no one knew anything about it until Page 6 got the tip from a waiter

  7. SunRae says:

    These people know as much as John Snow… nothing.

  8. Amy T says:

    Wishing them a great weekend and all the privacy. Have a great time with the grandbabies, Doria!

  9. L84Tea says:

    I’m just so excited to see them together, even for just a brief visit. Let the thrive era officially begin…

  10. Becks1 says:

    I love how Page Six knows NOTHING. You know they’re going to have paps crawling the city for the first glimpse of them, and they’re probably desperately trying to figure out where they’re staying.

    I would LOVE if they just show up for the Central Park event, and then in true H&M style we find out months later that “oh, they met with this person and that person and are starting this initiative and that project because of their NYC meetings.”

    • Eurydice says:

      The other side of “H&M style” is the way they presented themselves at their farewell tour – orchestrated, coordinated and beautifully spectacular for all the photographers. It’s the first time H&M are officially out in public since they came to the US and they know the press will be out there. I think this will be as planned and thought-out as the farewell tour – not so spectacular that it draws attention away from the cause, but also “Hello, this is who we are – this is how we fit into this new world.”

    • LaraW” says:

      Lol Becks, when I first read the headline, I thought “who on earth would consider going to talk to world leaders at the UN General Assembly ‘romantic’?” (My tin foil tiara re H&M going to the UN GA is very much superglued to my head, especially with the news that H&M are supposedly going to be in NYC a week prior to the event in Central Park.)

      Then I thought, if there’s anyone who would find a trip to engage in joint philanthropic advocacy romantic, it would be H&M. Romantic in the sense of being a team getting sh-t done, not necessarily in the flowers and chocolates sense. (Or romantic in the sense that Harry finds Meghan super-hot when she’s commanding the attention of a room full of world leaders and experts while she’s wearing the crap out of her power suits.)

      • JT says:

        I would love to see a You Coulda Had a Bad Bitch: US Edition in New York. I also hope they are doing more than just the Central Park event because they haven’t been out and about since they’ve left that snake pit across the Atlantic. Maybe they’ll throw in a few speeches for good measure and I can’t wait to see what they will wear.

      • Becks1 says:

        @LaraW – can you see Meghan giving a speech at the UN while Harry just beams with pride in the background? That’s definitely their definition of romance, LOL.

    • Lorelei says:

      @Becks, you KNOW that we’ll definitely hear at least a few stories like that trickling out over the next few months! I can’t wait, lol.

      This comment thread is great!! I love “You Coulda Had a Bad Bitch: US New York Edition” 😂 And they probably WOULD find a way to make the UN General Assembly “romantic,” Laraw, because if such a thing is possible, they’re the only ones who could pull it off.

      I hadn’t even thought about the style component, Eurydice, and now I’m even more excited!

  11. Sofia says:

    Co-sign those saying that Page Six probably don’t know much details about it and are just printing things that are plausible. They could do a romantic trip or they could be in and out of NYC in 24 hours or somewhere in the middle.

  12. mariahlee says:

    Page Six is the worst. They know nothing and are clearly biased against H&M in their reporting. Merely an American extension of the UK tabloids.

    Also, I’d bet H&M are already in NY. These papers are always embarrassingly several steps behind.

    • JT says:

      Yeah. I wouldn’t be surprised if the announcement came after H&M had already flown to NYC because that’s how they roll.

  13. rawiya says:

    The British press are probably so excited! This is like Christmas for them.

  14. Sunshine says:

    It’s suddenly occurred to me that Murdoch now owns both Page Six and TMZ.
    AMI owns almost all the other tabloids/gossip media in the US.
    That means that the big players in the American gossip industry is now right wing.

    • Lorelei says:

      @Sunshine, isn’t it depressing? I was so discouraged when I realized that. Hopefully it only plays to the MAGATs, though. Just like in the UK, it doesn’t impact their reputation with *everyone* — there’s a group of Fox-News-watching, TMZ-reading haters for sure, but they’re in the minority, I think (and hope).

      I think most Americans (the ones who even pay any attention at all to the BRF) are thrilled at having our American Princess back, and love that Prince Harry lives here now, too.

    • Debbie says:

      I knew (from CBers) that People magazine was being edited by an English person, but I didn’t know that Murdoch owned TMZ. The Feds should really step in before any one person gets a monopoly in the print, electronic media and gossip rags.

  15. harla says:

    If true I would love this for them! I also hope that Meghan stops by the UN for the General Assembly!! I really hope that she starts working with UN Women again!

  16. Chelsea says:

    The last two sentences make no sense. They say the last time she was in NYC was Feb 2019 and then the next sentence talk about her visiting in the summer of 2019. This was obviously just an excuse for them to bring up the babyshower and considering the fact that we know now that she was suicidal at the time it makes it even more disgusting that they started a huge pile on on her for that.

    I feel bad for her friends as well because you could tell that Daniel and Janina felt very guilty about the attacks that come on Meghan when they were asked about it after the fact when in reality her friends were rightly worried about her and wanted to spoil her and shower her with love when she desperately needed it the most. But that act of love, paid for out of their own pockets, was turned around used as yet another stick to beat a suicidal pregnant woman with. Just sick and cruel.

    • MsIam says:

      Someday, someone is going to spill the beans on how this wasn’t just a random media attack and that it was directed by the palace. I hope that curtain is not just pulled back but yanked to the ground.

      • Lorelei says:

        @Msiam, I hope it happens during our lifetimes so we’re able to see it. Sometimes it takes freaking DECADES for the true royal dirt to be revealed, but I would really appreciate it if this one happens much sooner!

      • Chelsea says:

        I feel like some of her friends are dying to spill all but are being held back by H&M from doing so and are respecting their wishes. It wasn’t until this post that I remembered how upset and hurt Janina appeared when asked about the babyshower in 2019 and it makes even more sense now why she was the one who went on tv to warn the RF to not play stupid games after the Oprah interview. I cant imagine how hard it is to see a close friend treated so horrifically and not be able to defend them which is probably why so many of them jumped to do so for Meghan back in March once they were finally able to.

    Page Six wants to distract from the fact that Harry and Meghan are (1) doing impactful work and (2) are being accepted even though the tabloids and Murdoch media have done everything in their power to make them disliked. It’s an attempt to diminish them and their work.

  18. Keri says:

    Anyone foolish enough to put themselves against Meghan and Harry deserves what the future holds for them. They will thrive.
    I for one have not looked at the daily fail even once since I caught on to their bs. I cannot endorse nonsense and that holds true for any other issues and causes i feel strongly about.

    I don’t think it will be like the baby shower trip. It was pretty clear from that trip that someone had sold them out. Like, the paps were at restaurants and such waiting for Meghan and such. A lot of details were leaked. Which is why Meghan was able to be so low key when she went to see Serena. There was no one leaking details of the trip. So, it will likely be a low key trip (aside from their appearance) unless H&M randomly decide otherwise.

    • JT says:

      It will probably be low key, as H&M are pretty stealthy in general. But I would kind of love it if it was like the baby shower, perhaps a bit more toned down. I loved the photos coming from the baby shower and Meg looked so happy in the pics. I low key want H&M to have a Bennifer moment in NYC. Maybe they could be the diplomatic Ben and Jen. Like, just have a good trip and not care who knows it. I mean it’s not like they are in our faces all the time anyway. I don’t know what I’m saying but I want them to enjoy the Big Apple in a big way, if that makes sense.

      • Lorelei says:

        @JT: the diplomatic Bennifer! I love it.

      • JT says:

        @Lorelei I just want them to have a ball in NYC. Just go all out and have a good time. Of course they have work do to and probably important meetings to get through but I feel like they’ve had to tone down their happiness a bit. Say what you want about Bennifer, but they look like they are having a good time and I want that for H&M. They’ve had to deal with so much in such a short amount of time, so why not just enjoy yourselves.

      When she went to the shower, Meghan was still under the KP staff and they were hostile and leaked like sieves. When she went to the US Open, the Sussexes had set up their own staffing, so no leaks. At the time she went there, some columnist wrote some screed about how Meghan was abandoning the British and took it personally that she went on a personal trip. They’re still taking it personally. Would not be surprised if they have a lot of work meetings while in NY, but hope they have a bit of fun and go out.

      • L4frimaire says:

        They’re already there! So first thing on the agenda is meeting the Mayor and the new Governor bright and early. Will be great to see them.

    • lanne says:

      I think KP sold them out. Those motherf—-ers would have known where she was staying.

  20. Marivic says:

    Aside from the DFail, DExpress, etc, this Page6 has nothing but bad press for Meghan and Prince Harry. Include also People. They are the Royal Family’s henchmen and attack dogs.

    Doesn’t Meghan go to Hilaria Baldwin’s yoga studio when she’s in NYC?

    • L4frimaire says:

      Does Hilaria Baldwin have a yoga studio? I recall the last time Meghan was in NY, she stopped by a yoga studio that has several branches. It was called Moda Yoga. Seems they have a lot of locations but not sure if it’s the same as you’re referring to.

      • bettyrose says:

        Internet tells me Hillary B works at a studio called Yoga Vida. For some reason, I thought I remember when the Hilaria story first broke that this site mentioned it was the same studio where Meghan had gone to cure her jetlag on the last trip to NYC.

    Hurricane Sandy was in 2012, not 2013 and hit the NYC area end of October, I remember it well as we were without power for 12 days. The recovery efforts definitely extended into 2013 and I’m guessing Harry saw damages caused by the flooding and downed trees months later with Chris Christie several months later (I checked on Google, it was mid-May 2013 so nearly 7 months after the hurricane). Page Six kind of made it sound like he was immediately there in the aftermath and he was not. Something stupid to nitpick but anyways!

    I hope Meghan and Harry enjoy their childfree trip, I’m sure those don’t happen very often. I will be in NYC Saturday but I have zero plans to go to Central Park as I will be dog sitting in Brooklyn. Can’t wait to see pictures of the coverage.

    Take Murdock press with a big grain of salt. Anything associated with him is anti meghan. My goodness he just rehired pig moron. Actually he is acting like a spurned lover the way he is spending on people to smear meghan.
    What is the real deal with him?. Did meghan reject him or a relative of his?. Just asking.

      He’s just another white man who thinks a WOC owes him attention and perhaps affection. Meghan ignoring him chaps his pasty white ass. He’s obsessed with her to a degree that would be dangerous if he lived in the same country. His wife should be embarrassed but she’s as big a slimeball as he is.

  25. LLo says:

    We technically don’t know if H&M have taken other trips while being in the US. They managed to get to Miami, Colorado and into the US from Canada without being seen. There was a rumor that they were at Disney which is close to where Serena lives.
    I think this will be more of a work trip but can’t wait to see them and hope they have a great time.
    But what I love most of all is that they can get around incognito if necessary.

  26. Bean says:

    Is there anyone who would NOT enjoy a romantic child free trip to NY right now?! This article is like saying the sky is blue.

    Heck, I would settle for a date night with my husband. 🤪

    According to Scobie they are having a meeting with the mayor of NYC and the Governor tomorrow morning at 8 Am. They are at the World observatory. They must be in NYC
