Duchess Meghan’s presence at the Chubbly would’ve been ‘uncomfortable’ for Kate

The last time the Princess of Wales saw the Duchess of Sussex, Kate went out of her way to stare coldly at Meghan and physically menace Meghan. The entire week-long spectacle of QEII’s funeral blitz meant that Meghan and Kate were in the same general area several times, across several days and events. They barely spoke to each other and Kate mostly looked pissed off or like Chuckles the Clown, grinning hysterically at the thought of all of the jewelry she would now get to wear. To hear Kate tell it though, walking a few yards away from Meghan in Windsor was “one of the hardest things she’d ever had to do.” Wiglet Jesus wept.

Well, now that it’s been confirmed that Meghan will not fly in for King Charles’s Coronation Chaos, how has dear Buttons reacted? With relief, apparently. The poor sausage just couldn’t even handle another run-in with a Black woman. Kate wouldn’t even have a chainlink fence to separate them!

It’s no secret that sister-in-law Meghan Markle and Kate Middleton do not share a warm relationship, and today’s news that the Duchess of Sussex won’t attend King Charles’ Coronation may well be a welcome relief to the Princess of Wales. Buckingham Palace announced that Prince Harry will attend his father’s big day alone, while Meghan remains behind in California with the couple’s two children Archie and Lili.

And while there will certainly still be tension in the air, Meghan’s absence will reportedly make things a little easier for senior royals.

A royal observer noted: ‘Charles will be pleased. The rest of the family will be relieved that Meghan won’t be there – it would have been particularly uncomfortable for Kate.’

It comes amid reports that Kate found her Windsor walkabout with Harry and Meghan after the Queen’s death ‘one of the hardest things she’d ever had to do’, according to a sensational new royal book.

[From The Daily Mail]

Ah, yes, won’t someone think of poor Kate’s discomfort around Black people? Kate truly believes this is a position which strengthens her image. Black people are props and nothing else, they certainly aren’t members of one’s family.

I acknowledge that a lot of Sussex Squaders are, like, mad that Meghan isn’t going to the coronation because they think Meghan’s absence is exactly what the Windsors wanted? I mean, it’s been clear this whole time that Charles only wanted Harry there and not Meghan or Archie or Lilibet. Charles really put out a sign saying “Whites Only.” As for the rest of the family, they didn’t want Meghan OR Harry there. Instead of parroting those Daily Mail talking points, take a minute and analyze the reality of the optics for a second – Meghan isn’t going because she respects herself too much, because she knows Harry’s family sucks, and because she knows she was not welcome. Think about that – these terrible people (mostly Kate, William and Charles) and their press allies made sure that the entire world knew that they all wanted an all-white coronation. KKKate strikes again.

    Of course shunning Meghan is appealing to Kate. Oh harry please stay far away from Kate

    • Katya says:

      As I recall Kate seemed hurt at Windsor during QE2’s funeral that Harry wouldn’t even acknowledge her.

      @kensingtonroyal being bigots is pretty evident now. Remember a friend saying Meghan couldn’t understand why “baby addict” (my phrase) never wanted to hold and coo over Archie … her actual NEPHEW!

    • Georgia Walker says:

      I don’t understand why, when Meghan is intelligent, Articulent, and is a class act, where as Kate is skied row trash. KKKate didn’t learn how to dress until she started to cosplay Meghan.

  2. K8erade says:

    White fragility, thy name is Kate Middleton.

    • Snuffles says:

      You beat me to it.

    • Whyforthelove says:

      Poor little fragile flower. I used to be neutral on Kate. Then Meghan had the audacity to live her life and we got to see who this witch really is. I loathe her now. I am so sorry she might have to experience discomfort and her life has not prepared her for that possibility. Oh wait…nope..I don’t care how she feels. Go buy 57 blue coats that all look alike Kate and give it a rest.

    • BothSidesNow says:

      Brava @ K8erade!!!

      It’s quite funny how they are pushing this PR narrative as it’s a delicious treat showcasing how clueless and stupid they all are.

  3. Brit says:

    I’m sorry but Kate is truly a Karen and if she isn’t, the press don’t help in making her appear as one. Thank you Meghan for robbing the press and family of using you for clout and bonus points for the racists and delusional. That family will have nothing to leak and the press will be stuck with the boring, pale and stale.

    • ML says:

      She is a karen. No normal person lets this kind of story out during an event like a coronation. As pointed out to me, even the Trump family managed not to skewer each other during his inauguration: that tells you how fricking low the bar is not to eff up. Pathetic.

    • ThatsNotOkay says:

      Meghan will not be used to pacify racists by standing next to them, who can then say, “See, we’re not racists,” nor to feed racists, who would abuse and shun her and get off on their racist slights. Maybe Meghan should have Ngozi Fulani over for Archie’s birthday. Release those photos on May 6th. I want Meghan to troll the RF like there’s no tomorrow…and WIN!

  4. Becks1 says:

    This line – ” Think about that – these terrible people (mostly Kate, William and Charles) and their press allies made sure that the entire world knew that they all wanted an all-white coronation. KKKate strikes again.”

    YES YES YES. this is such a bad look for the royal family. they didn’t want the biracial duchess there, and she’s not going for her own reasons, and now the royal family seems to be gleeful over that, and its just SUCH a bad look. It really is a “Whites Only” sign being hung at the door to Westminster Abbey.

    KP desperately needs a new PR person. After the dragging Kate got over the weekend for the walkabout being “the hardest thing she’s ever done,” KP is still pushing the idea that Kate having to be around the black duchess would be hard for her?? Is she that much of a racist? A bitch? A snob? Is she so immature, petty and selfish that she cannot be civil in public to her SIL for one day?

    (psst. The answer is all of the above. She’ s racist, she’s a bitch, a snob, immature, petty and selfish.)

    • Brit says:

      They’re not gleeful at all. Meghan not coming with her children, voluntarily is publicly a snub to the royals. They know the optics look bad but the problem is that with Harry’s Book and the documentary, they can’t pretend to miss her or care for her and her children when it’s been clear they haven’t cared for them at all. So these stories are only making matters worse in terms of their image. Personally, I’ve been getting the sense that the they know the optics look bad and their press masters are pissed their money maker isn’t coming and they’ll try to pressure her into coming in the coming weeks.

      • Rapunzel says:

        I think the BRF might be gleeful. It’s the press that isn’t.

      • Becks1 says:

        See I think both are true. I think they are gleeful she’s not coming (well specifically William and Kate are gleeful) but I also think someone there realizes this is a really bad look. Is that someone W&K? I doubt it, because those two don’t have any sense of PR or optics at all (Flop tour, anyone?)

        and I 100% agree with you that their press masters are pissed. they needed her there and it will be interesting to see if they make the royals pay in any way for missing out on their big payday.

      • Nic919 says:

        I think Camilla knows it’s a bad look, hence the focus on Kate being the reason why Meghan isn’t attending.

      • windyriver says:

        @Nic919 – does Camilla really care about how it looks, though? Her involvement with the whole Clarkson incident and BP’s refusal to condemn what he wrote was a look at least as bad, if not worse. I’m not convinced Camilla truly cares about much of anything besides what personally benefits herself and her family.

        More likely, her cronies and close “friends” in the media are pissed that Meghan won’t be there, and Camilla’s getting pressure from them.

    • Sam says:

      @becks… and she’s full of hate and probably the most important point: full of envy and jealousy!!!

    • Nic919 says:

      It’s really interesting that a lot of the blame for Meghan not attending is being placed on Kate, queen of the Karens. The reality is that Charles created this situation in the first place, but the media is taking the obvious scowls and nasty looks Kate gave during the funeral events and using them now to confirm that she has had an issue with Meghan’s mere presence.

      It’s a very bad and racist look for Kate, but her own actions condemn her. There is nothing to show that Kate is a warm person. Of course Harry’s book adds more heft to this ice queen image because he managed to confirm she didn’t like Meghan with just a few examples.

      • notasugarhere says:

        He confirmed sideways not just that Kate didn’t like Meghan, but that Kate was openly hostile to Meghan.

  5. Of course poor sausage would be uncomfortable because Meg out classes her at everything and that includes breathing.

  6. girl_ninja says:

    “Meghan isn’t going because she respects herself too much, because she knows Harry’s family sucks, and because she knows she was not welcome.”

    That’s right! Thank you! All this. Absolutely this and to hell with Waity Wiglet.

    • LB says:

      Yes, Meghan knows that no matter what she does, no matter how perfect she is, the BRF does not want her. In fact, every time she succeeded in royal work, the BRF and UK Media hated her more. Meghan does not need the Coronation to shine. The Coronation needed her. The limelight is now all for Kate & Camilla, and they will underwhelm as usual.

      • BothSidesNow says:

        @ LB, they truly hated that any project that Meghan touched turned into gold whilst outshining every single one of the “working” BaRF members.

        Duchess Meghan is back in the US and we have welcomed her with open arms, love, admiration and support. Meghan is living her life free from Salty Islands abhorrent behavior and they have NO power over her which angers them into the stratosphere.

        Let them have KHate, the precious white snowflake that she is….it’s who and what they all deserve.

      • Gabby says:

        Exactly. M will forever be made to pay for the crime of Duchessing While Black and making it look good.

  7. Lizzie says:

    Is it uncomfortable when you’ve been backstabbing and lying about someone and they call it out, then you have to come face to face. Uncomfortable is one word for it. Ashamed is what she should be.

    • BothSidesNow says:

      @ Lizzie, yes KHate should be ashamed but she has spent her entire life bullying other women.

      Meghan has everything that KHate has ever wanted and she hates Meghan for that simple fact.

  8. Rapunzel says:

    So all the “Harry caved” or “Harry put the BRF over Meg” stuff that some (mostly suspiciously new) people kept harping on yesterday was nonsense. And I’m not judging H&M for their decisions. I’m sure they’ve thought everything through and are making the best of what are all sucky options.

    But it does burn me up that Kate is probably feeling like she “won” some sort of victory with Meghan not going. I am really tired of this woman acting like she is the victim.

    • Jasper says:

      Harry and Meghan are excellent strategists. KC3 only got this one concession out of them, that Harry will attend. And only that one event. H&M probably negotiated for security for when H has to return for either charity or the court case.
      As for Kate, if she and her family think those headlines make her look good, they are sadly mistaken. Are the press ineptly trying to embiggen her or are they deliberately exposing her bigotry? Yikes!

    • notasugarhere says:

      The sheer number of brand new posters with that take on things were obvious. OBVIOUS.

      • BothSidesNow says:

        @ notasugarhere, all of those commenters yesterday spoke as if they were staff, or part of the Daily Fail cult. The unwavering, unhinged, blatant delusions and hatred they spewed was absolutely obvious!

  9. Colleen says:

    What a charmed life Kate leads if being polite to someone you don’t like is the hardest part of it.

  10. kelleybelle says:

    God forbid the fragile, overdressed bone-rack be made to feel uncomfortable.

  11. Dee(2) says:

    Agree with Kaiser’s point about thinking about how this feels for Meghan. This is what I was saying yesterday, too many supporters act like Meghan and Harry are there to live as avatars for their own personal fights with misogyny, racism, and colonialism not thinking these are real people who have to deal with this trauma of being treated poorly and excluded. Meghan is absolutely right to decide her mental health is more important than being a symbol. I hope May 6th is a beautiful day filled with laughter, balloon arches, and cakes and giggles

  12. Jais says:

    I mean it would be uncomfortable for Kate. That is a fact. Less shine for her. She’s not exactly a sharer. Meghan’s first balcony appearance where she wore the crazy tall hat and William literally had to nudge her to the side is just one example. But uncomfortable is the nicest way possible to say actually she would be seething in anger if Meghan was actually there.

    • notasugarhere says:

      Kate doesn’t shine, period, unless we’re talking about how shiny her forehead gets after overdoing on the botox.

  13. Julie says:

    It would be great if nobody watched here in the States. I don’t plan to.

    The last big event for me was Harry and Meghan’s wedding. Not tuning in for the segregated clowning .

    I hope Adele and Elton are at Archie’s birthday party.

    • ecsmom says:

      It’s the same day as the Kentucky Derby. Most people in the states if they are watching TV are going to be watching that. It would be a hard adjustment to switch from the high energy and adrenaline rush from the race to switch over to the boring slow moving pomp and circumstance of the coronation. But if they do I don’t see a bunch of people drunk on mint juleps wearing crazy hats being kind watching people in tiara’s and ermine.

      • Becks1 says:

        Also, the Chubbly is in the morning. I think its supposed to start at 11am UK time? So that puts it at 6 am east coast time? And on a saturday? It’s not going to be the ratings draw over here they might think its going to be.

        Which is fine, he’s not our king, not our chubbly – but you know its going to be a blow to his ego when the only people who tune in are people like my parents, who are in their 70s and wake up at 5 am anyway. and my dad only watches royal stuff now at all because we went to England last summer and he likes figuring out where they are vs where we visited etc. It has nothing to do with Charles himself lol.

      • The Recluse says:

        Also, the last Guardians of the Galaxy movie comes out that weekend, I think.
        Between watching the pretty horses and going to the movie, Chuckie’s party is way down on my list of priorities.

    • Lola09 says:

      I’m in the UK and don’t even know the exact date for the Chubbly. No way will I be watching or giving a shit at all!

    • Gabby says:

      There’s always Sopranos reruns.

  14. daisyfly says:

    I think that what burns Kate the most is the fact that Meghan, a biracial American of all people, didn’t have to put in over a decade of scheming and plotting, waiting and crying, in order to get her prince. Meghan got Harry just by being her, while Kate had to alter everything about herself in order to get William.

    • notasugarhere says:

      Kate and Carol(E) were both furious that Meghan and Harry met-and-married in less than two years. If Meghan hadn’t had her final season obligation to Suits, I think we’d have seen them marry in Spring 2017.

    • ScorpioMoon says:

      I fully agree. Meghan outshines and outclasses Kate in every way and in my eyes, this isn’t a loss for Meghan, this is a victory. She chose herself and chose her children, and she’s got enough respect for herself that she’s not about to play these reindeer games with these malicious vipers.

      Kate can have her photo-ops and have Carole leak whatever she wants. The fact remains, most of us know that Will treats her like garbage and always has, and he doesn’t remotely care about her in the way that Harry does for Meghan. She wins nothing over Meghan except a crown that she had to sell her soul and self-respect to acquire, and that’s a hollow victory in my opinion.

      • Eurydice says:

        Yes, exactly. It’s so weird that people are making H&M’s coronation decision to be a victory for the RF. Meghan gets to stay home and not be subjected to the racist faces of a dying institution, and, after the Chubbly, Harry gets to go back to his new home – to the loving family for which he’s always wished, to the friends and colleagues who respect him. How is this a bad thing?

        And the rest of the RF get to remain in a claustrophobic, constipated and aimless world where everyone hates and plots against one another, and spend their lives performing like trained seals for the tabloids’ amusement and bottom line. How is this a good thing?

    • Nicki says:

      @euridice: +1. also bonkers that the RF’s own strategy has made Meghan and Harry the big story and basically overshadowed everything else about the coronation.

  15. L84Tea says:

    Of course she’s relieved. Meghan brings out her worst insecurities because Kate knows she doesn’t measure up. She knows Meg will wear something understated and chic, and simply sit back and breathe, and will get all the attention in doing so. Kate has to cover herself in tacky brooches and netting and strings of pearls and wiglets galore to try and compete, and it still never works. I’m sure she’s relieved as heck.

    • Lauren says:

      If she was relieved it was short lived because yesterday several of the other royal families confirmed who would be attending. All of the Crown Princesses and Queens that are confirmed to be attending have more style and personality than Kate. Also most of them look the same age as Kate despite being older

  16. equality says:

    Meghan called Kate a “good person” and made all kinds of excuses for her; PH is the one who told how cold and obnoxious she was in his book. Yet Kate has a problem with being around Meghan but not PH? Why? Does M being around prevent her from trying to catch H’s eye like she did at a funeral? I hope Bea out-shines her at the con.

    • Serenity says:

      Lilibet would’ve outshone KKKate. Let’s be real lol. 😆

    • notasugarhere says:

      Meghan called her ‘a good person’ because as Serena Williams said, Meghan is too nice.

    • Nic919 says:

      Meghan also said this before the funeral events, where Kate proceeded to childishly act out during solemn events because she is that jealous of Meghan.

      • L84Tea says:

        Kate’s behavior during the funeral events was some of the most childish crap I have ever seen. It was embarrassing and appalling to watch. Kate put all of her insecurities and jealousies out on full display and the entire world saw.

    • Amy Bee says:

      Meghan’s mortal sin was disputing the story that she made Kate cry.

      • notasugarhere says:

        To some, Meghan’s mortal sin is that she exists as the beloved wife of a white Prince.

      • Becks1 says:

        Maybe the two go hand in hand. As the black wife of the white prince, she was supposed to shut up and take it and let the white duchess spew whatever hatred and lies she wanted to.

  17. Laura D says:

    Kate has to play victim and change the narrative because we ALL saw her appalling behaviour towards Meghan. Kate is probably relieved that Meghan isn’t attending because she’s doesn’t have the self-control to hide her jealousy and spite. This woman is supposed to be a future queen yet, she cannot be civil towards her SIL in public. Whether people like or dislike QEII the public never really knew if she disliked anyone. I think Kate better go back to her co-splaying QEII handbook and check the chapter on manners and civility because, from what we’ve seen so far that part of the book hasn’t sunk in.

    • L84Tea says:

      This. Kate has NO poker face whatsoever. She simply doesn’t have it in her to shelve her petty and her jealousy for even two seconds. She’s not cut out for royal life in that way.

      • Nlopez says:

        + 1000 NOTASUGAR!!

      • ScorpioMoon says:

        She’s not cut out for royal life because were it not for her mother’s scheming and grooming (and the fact that Willy didn’t have any better options and was getting pressured to marry and produce an heir) , she never would have been royalty to start with. Kate’s greatest skills are in stalking, copying, and mean-girling, and so it’s no surprise that when a new woman burst on the scene—more intelligent, capable, ambitious, talented, stylish, graceful, and beautiful—she couldn’t control herself and set about doing what she does best.

    • Shoshone says:

      I do not believe that that you would typically see a female member of the aristocratic class behaving in public with Kate’s lack of self control. The aristos must be laughing at her antics.

      • Lorelei says:

        The fact that Meghan always causes Kate’s mask to slip is amazing. She simply cannot refrain from glaring at her, even for the duration of a one-hour, internationally televised church service. It’s unreal. (Not to mention the “WHAT ELSE” moment, which she also knew was on camera.) And this woman is going to be their future Queen? A position with the main requirement being diplomacy?

    • Juniper says:

      Low EQ for sure. Like for real, you can’t keep your shit together for a few hours when you’re in public? It flies in the face of all the “the English have a Stiff Upper Lip.”

  18. Mary Pester says:

    Ye gods, do these people even EMPLOY a single person who will give them proper advice. Now the whole world can ACTUALLY SEE what Harry and Megan were talking about. The world can see the family are a bunch of racist prks and the British press are EXACTLY THE SAME. KHATE your resting skull face with the rictus grin WON’T WORK anymore. You can wear a tiara, you can drip in diamonds (drip being the operative word) but WE SEE YOU and so does everyone. You can pose with your children to your hearts content, but all we will see is a sly little bch who can’t handle a beautiful, intelligent, wealthy in her own right WOMAN, showing YOU what class really is. Camilla is the mother you were separated from at birth, an evil conniving scrotum in a wig, who has finally got what she has wanted for Years, THE CROWN. NOW, now you will see what karma looks like up close. The briefings are coming thick and fast. Who do you think told the press you were glad Megan wasn’t coming. Charlie, you poor deluded mummy’s boy, sit on your throne Charlie, because you won’t get a lot of use out of it, your dear son BULLYAM has already started briefing against you, keep an eye on the papers old man, there is a lesson there. Any good will you might have got because of the pomp and circumstance of the coronation won’t last the anti monarchy movement is building, maybe Charlie boy, just maybe you SHOULD have treasured your youngest son and his wife and shouldn’t have gone against your mother’s PUBLICLY STATED WORDS, or sold of most of her horses or sacked over 100 staff days after the funeral. That showed us WHO YOU ARE, A pathetic individual who needs his surrogate mummy to tell him what to do, ha, hope your ready for the Parker – bowels invasion, they have plans for the Royal houses! BULLYAM, your an ugly self centered creep, you rage and scream every time someone tells you NO, well Harry did, and look at him now, more of a man than you will ever be. Harry is not there for you, he is not there for your wife or your mistress (as they are both there) he is there as a military man, and respect for your father’s office, but NOT your father! Dear, dear BULLYAM, another Alex Tiffin is waiting in the winds, and you won’t be able to shut him up, or suppress any more videos, enjoy your day matey, because tomorrow???? +++karma for breakfast

    • Lady D says:

      Mary Pester, every time I see the “scrotum in a wig” I shall think of you and laugh. Thank you for that. Such an apt description of her.

  19. Izzy says:

    Kate is uncomfortable?? Imagine how Meghan would have felt. Staying away is the best thing for Meghan, Archie, Lili, and yes, even Harry – he will worry less about their safety when they are home and nowhere near Salt Isle.

    • Serenity says:

      👆 THIS!!💯💯

    • Patricia says:

      Exactly, Izzy. Of course Princess Dolittle doesn’t want Meghan there. How would she deal with a woman who is more intelligent, more compassionate, more beautiful,, a recipient of many, many awards that Buttons will never see such honors. Add to that she has an amazing husband who manages to keep his britches zipped,fully cognizant of the rare gift of this lovely woman who he loved on first sight. And their children are an added and much loved blessing. Sorry, Kate, you just don’t measure up and you know it.

      Mary I loved your insightful take on the dramatis personae in this sorry saga.
      You’ve nailed it in every case.
      I also wanted to say that I support Harry’s decision to go, out of respect for the institution he was born into. But I truly hope it’s his last hurrah with his dreadful family ( apart from Chuckys funeral) and he literally shows face and fecks off back to the loving arms of his beautiful wife and adorable children.
      As for Meghan not attending. Good on you girl. Why would you give the time of day to people who have treated you like something they scraped off their shoes, put your life in danger and villified the man you love?

  21. Brassy Rebel says:

    Sorry, I don’t think they consider an all white con-a-nation to be “bad optics”. It’s exactly what their monarchy loving base wants. So they deliver. They don’t look at it from our perspective at all. They need to keep the supporters they still have on board.

    • Saucy&Sassy says:

      Brassy Rebel, one of the numerous things they do wrong is exemplified in this Clowning. KFC wanted the BIG moment–well weekend. He wants everyone’s eyes on him and not just in the UK. He wants everyone GLOBALLY to watch him Clowned. So, he does what he does and saves whatever base in the UK he still has and he is left looking bad globally. I don’t think people outside of the UK are wondering why Meghan won’t be there. We know exactly why, because the brf and bm have been at such pains to tell us and show us.

      H&M really are playing chess. I’m thrilled that Harry won’t be in any processions. I hope he’s just inside the church and that’s it. I wouldn’t be at all surprised if this wasn’t just by his choice, but it was a security issue, too.

      Welp, KFC, you reap what you sow. The chickens have come home to roost.

    The UK & the commonwealth deserve better than this racist, dysfunctional family as heads of state. They can’t manage their family drama. They are making a mockery of civility & respect. They are harboring a pedo. Kate has no breeding. The list goes on and on. The head of state should be voted in by the people, IMO.

      *APPLAUDS*

      This is the opinion you’ll hear voiced more & more often in the UK now & why more & more people are getting off their butts to demonstrate. Monarchy is absurd, unjustifiable, archaic & should be demolished asap – it’s no more sensible than believing in fairies (sorry, if that’s news to anyone!). Useless, talentless bunch.

      • Saucy&Sassy says:

        Wait, Pip, fairies aren’t real? Fairies are much more sensible than monarchy.

    • Jojo says:

      APPLAUDS x 1000. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

      @PIP & @MSLOVE. I agree so hard with both your comments that there’s probably a grove ground into my screen as I type.

      It is so mortifying & embarrassing to have these people, this institution, these racist, elitist dullards representing the country you live in.

      The quicker we get an elected HoS system in place the better.

    Once again, when silence will suffice, Kate leaks….
    How is the state of her marriage?? One is aware that the Waleses’ bond over the hatred of Meghan.
    Using that as a criteria, the answer is not very good..
    🌹 pruning is in season, spring 🕙.

    Someone needs to tell the under-achieving Kate that Meghan does not need her validation nor aspirations.

    It is time to resume ” Please 💘 me, I am a saint” campaign.
    On second 💡, Don’t, No one outside the media cares.

    • The Recluse says:

      If she had a lick o’ sense, she AND Bill should be worried about Camilla’s grasp on the palace machinery. The only people who will stay on to work for this new regime will be loyal to her.
      It’s going to get UGLY.

  24. Amy Bee says:

    Kate was the one who was unwelcoming and smeared Meghan in the press. Why is she feeling uncomfortable around Meghan who did nothing but refute a lie that Kate helped push in the press. Kate is as much a psychopath as her husband.

    • Lady D says:

      She has nothing else to do.

    • Layla says:

      Because when you come face to face with the woman you’ve blatantly gaslighted and copykeened and obsesses over, you tend to feel a tad uncomfortable. But that’s only if one has a conscience. Knowing k, she’d go right back to it after the Official Stupid Tea Party. In fact wouldn’t be surprised if she copykeens at least something of Meghan at any of those events. She did it at the Jubbly (remember the belted jacket and the ballon sleeves outfit?)

  25. Elizabeth says:

    I’m sure Kate is grateful that Meghan won’t be there to outshine her, but she’s also probably upset that she won’t get to add another look to her Pinterest board. And KCIII needs to pick a narrative and stick to it. Either he doesn’t want Meghan there, or he’s all broken up that he won’t see her and his Sussex grandchildren.

  26. Miranda says:

    Every single story about Kate’s hatred of Meghan, and her melodramatic expressions thereof, makes her look more and more ridiculous, childish, petulant, and completely out of touch. And I honestly can’t tell if the people reporting on it genuinely sympathize with Kate’s “ordeal”, or if they’re intentionally making her look bad as a flex — just a way of keeping her under their thumb.

    • ScorpioMoon says:

      These people just astound me. They’re so obsessed with optics and symbolism and yet they fail to see how the optics and symbolism of THIS situation make them look uniquely terrible.

      Taking the whole family dispute aspect out of this and just focusing on the big picture, something that REALLY stuck out to me in the Netflix documentary (and in press coverage about Meghan initially, before the badness) is how much Black citizens of the Commonwealth were buoyed by her inclusion in the royal family. Black Americans too, and on paper, it’s a beautiful image: In Meghan, little Black girls of the Commonwealth finally had a “princess” who looked like them and could be inspiring for them. It really could have been a turning point for the monarchy and a chance to modernize it in a whole new way. Plus, as more (mostly Black) nations start to bristle under crown rule, at least having a Black royal to trot out and send to these places could have helped the BRF immensely and helped demonstrate how much the BRF has changed, grown, and evolved from where it was a couple of centuries ago.

      And what do these knuckleheads go and do? They’re not content for Meghan to just leave the UK and put royal life behind her. They intentionally go out of their way to talk about snubbing her and her mixed-race children and how she needs to be put in her place; these royal reporters do and say virtually everything short of calling her Harry’s Black concubine. And regardless of how anyone feels personally about Harry, Meghan, and their motives, the fact is that on a symbolic level, Meghan meant and represented a lot to a lot of Black people all around the goddamn world, and they can read and see how they write about her now. It’s a terrible look for the monarchy and the fact that they still keep doing it really just validates so much of what Meghan said she experienced, and it’s no shock that now many predominately Black nations in the Commonwealth are getting much more vocal about opposition to crown rule. I’m not saying it’s all Meghan, but where there’s smoke, there’s fire guys, and they burned a lot of potential good will and opportunity when they decided to all gang up on the new Black “princess.”

  27. Shawna says:

    “Kate wouldn’t even have a chainlink fence to separate them!” – that would make for an epic political cartoon. Kate in a tiara, separated by Meghan…

  28. Maddie says:

    I’m glad she’s not going and putting herself and her children first. My only disappointment is we won’t get to see what she would have wore, because you know I would have been amazing!

  29. Over it says:

    I hope Kate the princess of whiteness, chokes on her sad little tears and trips in her well of hate on her way down the aisle . F-ing piece or white racist trash that she is. And I will say it every day. Meghan knows her own self worth and won’t beg , bend and scrape to people who are not worthy of her . I salute you megs . I salute you .
    Watch kate fawn all I over Harry with her desperado lack of a-sa and watch Harry ignore her .

  30. JCallas says:

    Kate has gone full racist. Even KC is briefing the press that he’s sad that only Harry is coming though he’s the one that let the world know he didn’t consider her family. I guess she knows who her fans are.

    • ScorpioMoon says:

      She’s the worst kind of racist too. She’s not “racist,” she’ll say it up and down until she’s blue in the face. It’s just, you know, she likes the “good kind” of Black people—the kind who “know their place” and respect their betters and don’t try to overreach. It’s these uppity, entitled, vocal Blacks that she can’t abide, because THOSE Blacks are the ones who cause trouble. And heaven help the Black woman who seems beautiful or seems to be getting any attention for her natural beauty and grace, because those women are particularly terrible to such a fragile English rose as she!

  31. Lightpurple says:

    Dear Princess Katherine,

    Your father-in-law is being crowned King of England.

    IT IS NOT ABOUT YOU.

    No need to pull an ‘lvanka crashes McCain’s funeral” stunt. Mind your manners, leave your in-laws alone, stay off your cell phone during the ceremony, and hush.

    Again, IT IS NOT ALL ABOUT YOU.

  32. Kel says:

    I don’t think they care about the optics and to be honest they don’t have to when the media industry is fully supportive of the royal family’s narrative.
    They’ll get a few million watching in the US similar to Philips funeral..they’ll get their crown pics etc

    But once the shine of the coronation wears off and with Harry doing the bare minimum I think that’s when they’ll be hit with a bit of negative press! They won’t have any storylines like they did for the funeral where it was ALL about Meghan especially to distract people.

    The cost of the coronation will be HIGH with a cost of living crisis still going.
    They’ll feel it then but right now the Windsors are happy!

    Future queen of england but the only say she has is over megan (who left), charlotte, and her sister (who she iced out). When she becomes queen i doubt it will get any better.
    If i was her friend i would tell her to start a business. She needs a win.

  35. Is That So? says:

    Cathy is relieved because she is planning to wear one of Duchess Meghan signature looks and was scared that standing beside the Original would make her copy look like the knock-off it is, no matter how expensive.

    • Blue Nails Betty says:

      @IS THAT SO

      Kate would look like the Wish version of Meghan.

    • Dee says:

      My guess is Kate and Sarah Burton are copykeening another look worn by Princess Margaret. Not an original thought with either one of them.

  36. Feebee says:

    Like most of us, no one in that family cares about Kate’s comfort. William’s plan b will be attending so Kate’s going to be looking over her shoulder regardless.

  37. cabooklover says:

    Spreading a lie about how your Black sister-in-law made you cry and allowing her to be bullied for it sure is going to make things uncomfortable especially after the truth comes out that you made HER cry.

  38. lanne says:

    I’d love to see a poll: if you had to trade lives with either Kate or Meghan, who would you choose? Let’s see:
    Kate? A husband with a bad temper at best, a violent temper at worst. A British media monitoring your every eyeblink. A stepmother in law you likely fear and despise, even though you can’t ever show it. 3 beautiful kids, yes, with nannies yes. Beautiful homes and jewels yes. Spies watching your every move and reporting your actions. A husband who you have to pretend to be in love with and whose infidelity you must ignore. A glamous sister in law who didn’t fall to the abuse of the media and who escaped the gilded cage you’re trapped in, who you will always be compared to. Lots and lots of expensive clothes, but god help you if your body shape changes in any way. Not much work to do, but god forgive you if you speak one word that the most vile courtier or media freak deems unacceptable. A lot of fake smiles and fake friends. Never knowing who you can really trust. Worst of all, no exit strategy or support system if things don’t go your way. Unlike your sister in law, if your husband decides he doesn’t want you anymore, you are completely at his mercy, as are your children.

    Meghan? A husband who adores you. A mother who supports you unconditionally. 2 beautiful children. An entire media trained on you, waiting for you to fail. A media that spent 7 years writing abusive and false stories about you in an attempt to make you the most hated person in the UK. Your own money coming into the royal family. 9 figure net worth and a beautiful home after leaving the royal family. The money and freedom to live your life on your own terms. No royal tiaras or royal orders, but you have enough money to buy your own jewels. A tight circle of friends you can trust. Peace and serenity. A media you can now engage with on your own terms in your own time. Meaningful projects you develop and work on. A hot husband who’s a genuine partner, who left his toxic family specifically to protect you and the children you have together.

    Who would choose the cage? Meghan’s success makes the royals, especially Kate, look bad. The sacrifice of privacy and freedom to gain the height of social stature looks less and less aspirational, now that Meghan and Harry finished what Diana started; peeling back the gilded wallpaper of the palaces and showing the rot lurking underneath

  39. Jaded says:

    I am hoping and praying that just once during the clowning, Harry cuts Khate to the core if she tries to make friendly with him. I want him to glare daggers at her the way she glared at Meghan (on several occasions), say quietly “I have nothing to say to you, get out of my sight”, and walk away.

    • Cassie says:

      Jaded,my thoughts exactly .

      She hates Meghan because she took the best brother away from her beck and call .

      Can’t wait till the press turn on her and Williams little secrets .

      Basically though I just want Harry back home safe once that event is over .

  40. QuiteContrary says:

    I mean, look at the photos above. Aside from KKKate’s obvious discomfort with her biracial sister-in-law — and Black people in general — Kate cannot compete with Meghan’s innate beauty, grace, dignity and effortless style.

    Relatedly, I wonder if there’s any way someone could project “Whites Only” onto the balcony that day. At the very least, I need to see #CoronationSoWhite trend on Twitter.

    The BaRF doesn’t have an effing clue how terrible this all looks.

    • K8erade says:

      I wonder if all of us chipped in and contributed if we could hire a plane with a banner to fly over Westminster Abby at the time of Chubbly. Probably not because they have security so tight that day.

  41. WaterisLife says:

    The BRF is trash. Hands down, white trash.

  42. Beverley says:

    The white trash princess will ALWAYS hate Meghan. Duchess Meghan is gorgeous, refined, creative, intelligent, and adored by her Prince. KKKate will NEVER have what Meghan has.

  43. AC says:

    Of course Kate doesn’t want Meghan and her children there. Imagine if they were there, all the world media would give HM and their children the MOST attention . Let’s face it the BRF don’t want to admit to this narrative because they know , even Charles know, that this is True. Not to mention the British Press are probably psst off Meghan won’t be attending , as they won’t get exclusive photos and content. Imagine if they were there, 100% HM and their children would have overshadowed this joke of a coronation. And you know how that would create even more jealousies within that toxic family.
    On another note , I just read an article regarding Deepak Chopra mentioning that HM are struggling right now. I hope that they’ll be fine . The thing is they’re being forced to be in the spotlight because all the tabloids are writing crap about them (even though we hardly hear or see them). Just shows they’re the only members of the BRF that the British tabloids have an interest in and can make money on. Funny as they don’t even live in the England. As I mentioned here in California, they’re not even on our local news and are pretty much left alone.

  45. Linney says:

    I’m sorry, but what am I missing here? How many articles have we read about Kate the Great, Kate the Peacemaker, Kate the Powerful, Kate Will Save the Monarchy, etc.? So which is it? Is she this incredibly strong woman who is the power behind the (future) throne or a wilting flower who must be “protected” at all costs? Don’t those people understand how ridiculous and contradictory these stories and claims are?

  46. Jferber says:

    Stone cold bitch Kate. She has a face that would sink a thousand ships.
