... shamelessly making your kids write letters to the grandmother they never met so you can exploit them in the press to score points against your brother. https://news.sky.com/story/william-...mothers-day-tributes-to-granny-diana-12245781 I don't know which is worse - if the letters were just produced by the PR people or if they stood there telling them what to write. "Papa is missing you" ffs.
Aw....how cute. I was against the royals last week and thought they should be abolished. I think they're ever so lovely now. Bless em all!
Why is it scoring points against his brother? Genuine question. I know all the royals are in the news but I haven't read any of it. Please don't take offence at this - my sister died just a couple of weeks after giving birth to her third child almost 21 years ago. They all write cards and stuff for her despite having little or no memory of her. It's not an unusual thing.
Ahh the media stirring up s#&t as usual. They seem intent in causing division whether you are black/white, gay/straight, royalist/couldnt care less, pro vax/anti vax, pro piers morgan/ pro Meghan markle I hate life at the minute, its ****
I was going to post saying something similar about a couple of my friends. They post about a grandparent that they never really knew, but regularly acknowledge what a great man/woman they were meant to be and how the stories they hear of them influences them to be better people every day. Usually on a birthday or anniversary of the passing. It’s not that unusual at all.
After the Oprah interview there's a spin war going on between the Palace and Harry and Meghan, with the Palace keen to engender some sort of good feeling at the minute. Call me cynical but I think this whole thing has been engineered with that in mind, and even if the cards were genuine (of which I have my doubts) then I don't see why they would be publicised other than to try and regain some favour with the public by evoking the memory of Diana. I didn't realise it was a common thing, I'm fortunate enough to have not really experienced that situation losing someone so close either myself or via friends/family and really hope I haven't offended anyone. I had a grandad die before I was born and I can't imagine writing him a card, but maybe that's just me and my family and everyone deals with it differently. I realise the wording of my OP might be a bit tactless looking back, but I do think this instance is shameless use of the kids for PR.
I don’t get the need to share on Twitter. Where lots of people would obviously see the negative side of the post. Given recent events. Nowt positive to come out of it for me, Royalists.”How heart warming”. Nowt new. Republicans.”Propaganda machine at work” fuel to the fire.
