How will GMB survive w/o Piers' commentary on his co-workers "mini skirt"? He's vile. Piers Morgan has been condemned for making “misogynistic” and “disgraceful” comments to his Good Morning Britain co-star Charlotte Hawkins. Amid controversy over the presenter’s recent remarks regarding Meghan Markle’s mental health, Morgan has attracted renewed criticism after commenting on Hawkins “arriving to work in a mini skirt”. On today’s episode of GMB (9 March), Morgan said that the “first sign of summer” is Hawkins’s choice of attire. “The first sign of summer traditionally atGood Morning Britain has been Charlotte Hawkins arriving in a mini skirt for work,” said the presenter, who then instructed Hawkins to “get up”. As the camera panned to her legs, Hawkins responded: “It’s just a dress honestly. It’s just a dress,” to which Morgan retorted: “It’s not a dress, is it? That’s not a dress. No, it’s not.” www.independent.co.uk/arts-entertainment/tv/news/piers-morgan-gmb-charlotte-hawkins-skirt-b1814501.html?utm_content=Echobox&utm_medium=Social&utm_source=Twitter#Echobox=1615293401

Im kinda surprised she only used their given names. Doesn't she usually address them as Duke & Dutchess? Not since they’ve stopped being working royals I don’t think. The February announcement regarding not returning as working members absolutely used Duke and Duchess: www.royal.uk/buckingham-palace-statement-duke-and-duchess-sussex

Well it's not like any of the royals have come out with a statement to say it wasn't them let alone to defend the treatment of Harry and Meghan. Individually they would never do that and never have and if the truth be known Harry and Meghan knew this or at least Harry would have. It's very unusual for the monarchy to even issue a statement on a controversial matter but I sincerely hope that they do make a statement and let us all get to the truth of this. What would make whatever they say more worthy of believing than what H&M said? Serious question? In my eyes, they buried this for multiple years. Anything they say now in regards to that matter is too little, too late.

Please point to specifically where I’m projecting anything. My points are 1. Nobody here truly knows anything. 2. If racism was in play, it should’ve been called out at the time, the RF (any one of them) should’ve supported and defended MM, and not doing so is complicity. Carry on with your hatefest. Well your projecting right here - I haven't said anything negative about Meghan or Harry at all in this thread let alone something hateful. Carry on with THE hatefest. Better? eta - but, yeah...ignore the other points I made in that post.

I am asking this in a nice, non confrontational way...if multiple people are saying on here that you are coming off as just as obsessive as pjaye was and not portraying yourself in a kind way don't you think maybe that should tell you that you may need to step back from this thread for a bit and then come back and re-read your posts? I know sometimes I can get fixated on a topic but I don't realize it until after it has been brought to my attention. I also know if I was coming off in a negative light I would want to know. Believe me I understand and sometimes when I am in the middle of discussing something I don't realize that I have veered from discussing to arguing. Just a thought for you to do as you want with it.

I rarely watch The view but today they showed this exchange that went on with him and somebody else. Apparently he was on a date with Meghan Markel when she met Prince Harry and he never heard from her again. Apparently since that happened he has not been very kind to her

Back to the topic at hand. TBH I haven't fully watched the interview but did watch the live CNN updates, have read this thread and other news sources and also read an article where a body language expert weighed in. Here are my two cents:
1. I don't think they are receiving money from the Queen and PP. I think they genuinely respect her. 2. I think they person in question is Charles. There clearly was only one person that they seem to have an issue with and it is him. 3. I also can't help but wonder if everything with Charles comes back to a grudge with him. I think it would be hard losing your mom at that young of age and knowing first hand how she was treated and then also all of the media coverage of how she was treated. Harry knows how Charles treated Diana and it was shitty. Right from the get go. I can't blame him for having a deep resentment towards him. Maybe he has thought he has worked through it but there are some lingering hard feelings. You know when someone has hurt/betrayed you and you forgive and move on yet you still harbor some ill feelings towards the person and react differently to what they say and do? I think that is where Harry is at. 4. I think this is less about Meghan forcing him away from his family and more about a deep seeded distrust of them after everything that happened with his mom. Maybe he feels this is a way of making something good out of her tragedy by not letting the same happen to him and his family.

i'm starting to think it was Charles too. Camilla has had enough scandal attached to her because of her affair with Charles back in the day that i think she's just happy to remain quietly in the family. i could see charles bringing up such a "concern" because he will be king someday and i'm sure he's mindful of all that will be reflected on him. he's also from an older generation who said stuff like that more so than people from William and Kates generation.

Because of how wonderfully Charles treated Meghan's Mom, I do not think that the person in question is Charles. He didn't have to treat her so nicely but he did.
I think it was a full on racist question and that the person was Princess Michael. She wore a blackface brooch on her first meeting with Meghan.

She even named two black sheep Venus and Serena. And wearing a Blackamoor brooch at her first luncheon with Meghan AND being photographed with it and smiling...yes, I think that she's that bold and close enough to them to ask such a stupid question.

Apparently he was on a date with Meghan Markel when she met Prince Harry and he never heard from her again. From all accounts I've seen, they met for drinks when she was in town for Wimbledon. At best they had a friendship but I see it as closer to a professional acquaintance thing. They weren't dating or in any sort of romantic relationship. Piers Morgan was married at the time (and still is). She likely met Prince Harry at a party that night. I loved watching the clip of him being called out this morning. He thought he had an inside track to the RF through Meghan and has never forgiven her for shutting him out.

Because genetically it was only ever possible for it to be one thing. No need to wonder about it - can be predicted with 100% accuracy. There were however lots of discussions about eye & hair colour, height and potential for baldness if a boy. Those sorts of things just interest some people - like how George had brown eyes and that's unusual (but obviously not impossible) considering he has parents who have blue & green eyes. If you aren't interested in the genetics and science of it then that's fine, but stop trying to ram this idea down people's throat's that those who are must be racist. Holy cow. You really are, very simply, a racist ass. I am circling back to this because what I posted here has been bothering me since last night. I am sincerely sorry for my behaviour. It is ok to think someone is a racist. It is NOT ok for me to call her names. Very simply, I should have walked away before I posted instead of after. To anyone I offended with my words, please know it will not happen again.

You are being exactly like pjaye and you called her out for that. Don’t call out someone if you are going to bully another member on the board the same way. Oh, and BTW, I questioned why pjaye is so hatefully obsessed with M&H. Nobody here can deny that she’s VERY obsessed with them and her hate is blazing. She just didn’t like it one bit. 🤷♀️ I think you’re confusing having strong opinions with obsession. Speaking of obsession, do you realise that of the 129 posts you have made to date, 43 of them are on this thread? A third...

several comments here
I think the Palace statement listed Harry, Megan and Archie by name to draw it back into a family context, versus Duke & Duchess which would be the Official Royal title (from the frim/business side of things).
I don't believe it was Charles that made the comment about the color of Archie's skin, because he appeared to genuinely care for Megan, and the support he offered her at the Wedding.
I am going out on a limb here, (and will probably get a lot of hate), but I believe it was William or Kate that made the comment about skin color. And while it may not have been meant maliciously, but more to inject humor, it was tasteless. And while Kate has many fine qualities, I do not believe she is a genuinely warm, welcoming person. I don't believe she made any effort to welcome Megan, or help her maneuver the rules. I also don't believe that she enjoyed sharing the limelight with Megan, on the few instances they were together. She also seemed to need her sister Pippa with her at those events. On the occasion when the 'Fab four" were together (mental Health initiative), Kate would put on a stony face, pursed lips whenever Megan spoke. At the last official event, Wm barely nodded at Harry and Kate didn't acknowledge H & M at all.
The saddest part of this is that Charles wouldn't take Harry's calls. Can you imagine needing to go through a secretary whenever you wanted to speak to your parent? I had hoped/thought that Charles had become more open to his son's needs following Diana's death.

A lot of what they do is for show. It was a good business move on his part. I think it's Charles and William. I am in total agreement on this. Him appearing cordial to Doria or walking downtown the aisle doesn’t cancel out the possibility he said it. Like Harry said - they are trained to be ‘on’ when it is required of them.
