Gd's red hair was a surprised to all to us - her parents are both brunettes, but her father has a sister and two aunts with red hair. Genetics are amazing. Just an FYI, if neither parent is a redhead, they will only have a redhead if both carry the gene. So your DD brought a recessive gene to the genetic mix as well as her DH.

No we don't, speculating on what went on over the week-end is just that, speculation! I'm guessing they don't have much in common anymore though. While Prince William was making a speech at the Saturday night concert about climate change and protecting the environment, Harry and Meghan were packing to return to California in a private jet on the Sunday. Hypocritical to say the least when they preach to others about the environment. from the New York TimesWilliam and Kate don't use private jets? No they don't. The royal family uses the RAF VIP Voyager jet to travel around the world in an official capacity. The specially designed plane is available to the royal family and British government officials. Prince William has been known to even use a budget airline.

You say that William has been known to use a budget airline, but has he done that with his family? I'd be curious if Kate and the kids have ever flown commercial which is what you seem to be applying Harry and Meghan and their kids should be doing if they cared about the environment. Slightly off topic, but I'm always amazed at how many celebrities that claim to be super concerned about the environment, but then fly all around the world constantly in private planes. I guess when it comes down to it their need for privacy usurps the environmental impact in their mind.

Second, couldn’t agree more with celebrities preaching to the little people and then jetting around the world, sometimes to climate crisis conferences, on private jets. Boggles the mind

So adorable! Of course we have no idea what the family dynamics are right now. But if Charles and William truly have shut Harry and Meghan out of their lives, they are missing out. 🥺 No we don't, speculating on what went on over the week-end is just that, speculation! I'm guessing they don't have much in common anymore though. While Prince William was making a speech at the Saturday night concert about climate change and protecting the environment, Harry and Meghan were packing to return to California in a private jet on the Sunday. Hypocritical to say the least when they preach to others about the environment. from the New York TimesDid you ever stop to think it made sense to take a private jet rather then turning a commercial flight into a three ring circus because they were aboard? And I’m pretty sure a direct flight from London to Santa Barbara does not exist. Which means they would of had to take another flight from LAX to Santa Barbara or a road trip after a long flight with 2 kids under the age of 5. As someone who lives in a wildfire zone of California, I will push climate change every chance I get. But I understand that nothing is absolute and sometimes it makes sense to do what the couple did to get to their home. And that it does not mean that they aren’t champions of climate change or that they are being hypocritical. It’s being realistic.

They have used private jets for family vacations though, right? It seems hypocritical to be ok for one brother to not practice what he preaches, but ok for the other brother. Isn't that the kind of thing the British press used to do to Meghan Markle? Attacking her for doing the same things they praised Kate for? I honestly am not bothered by either brother doing it especially when their children are along.

People are complaining and call them hypocrites because they took a private plane if they have taken a commercial the same people would have been outrage because they disturbed a commercial flight with their presence . Whatever they do people are going to complain 🤷🏻♀️

It's the official plane that Government and the Royal family, in their capacity as Head of State or in the case of William & Catherine when they are representing the Queen or on Government business. They only use it on official business. They don't use it for own private use. No different to your Airforce One really.

I'm with the poster above who said it's probably better to fly private that create a ton of havoc at the airport. @dottyscrapper just a FYI Airforce One is used for personal use by our president and with the exception of President Carter (who always seems to be an outlier) I've never heard of any of our previous presidents flying commercial after they are no longer in office. Even Vice President Gore who is a huge environmentalist supposedly flies private.

They have been flying commercially with the children for a few years now. This report from 2019 shows them boarding a FlyBe flight. Interestingly, that article was pointing out that Harry & Megan were flying via private jet. The tone deafness of that pair is amazing to watch! I'm with the poster above who said it's probably better to fly private that create a ton of havoc at the airport. In nearly all cases, they won't set foot inside the main part of the terminal. From photos I've seen it appears they are driven to the plane and board directly from the tarmac. They are also boarded last and sat at the front for minimal disruption.

They have flown private as recently as last October. It’s possible it has happened more recently, that is just the first verifiable (photo at private airport and tweet by official airport account) report I read off when I googled.
Lilibet (do they call her Lili?) is just darling.

Fun Facts.
A direct flight from London to the Los Angeles area is just shy of 12 hours.
There is no direct flight from London to Santa Barbara
This means if one as going to Santa Barbara they would either have to take a connecting flight say from LAX to Santa Barbara or drive the roughly 80 miles through LA traffic which I hear is terrible most of the time.
That is a long travel time for two adults but add two children ages 2 and 1 to the mix.
Apparently Kate & William have been known to take commercial flits with there kids. Where these commercial flights 12+ hours with their kids age 2 and under?
If you were taking a 12 hour flight and then have to either change planes or drive a fairly long distance through traffic with 2 kids but had the opportunity to take a direct flight what would you do? Be honest.
They had the option/ability to take a direct flight to their home in CA so they took it. Because if for no other reason then it was easier on the kids.
This does not make them hypocrites, it just meant they were being realistic. At this point when it comes to climate change nothing is absolute. Meaning everything one does doesn’t HAVE to be environmentally friendly all the time. There will come a time when one can call out someone for being hypocritical when comes to claiming they are for climate change, but we are not there yet.
I have to say, this constantly picking on this couple over nothing really is just plain petty IMO.

They love to hate them too much.

Their kids are cuties. I'm surprised that the red came out in both kids being the red is a ressesive gene.
Have a question about the photo release. The picture mom posted is from Misan's Twitter account. Could she have posted this picture and it really wasn't H&M's release? I was thinking, if they released a photo of her, why not also release an updated one of Archie? I know they want to raise their children out of the lime light, but sometimes I feel the lack of photos from them is their way of "punishing" the world for not seeign everything their way.

I think it is part of their way of doing things…sharing as little as possible. I would guess it was because of Lili’s birthday, and they don’t want to give away any ‘freebies’ by releasing one of Archie too

No one was picking on H & M. No one was snarky or rude in the thread until you showed up. You didn’t even bother to comment on the cute photo (the subject of the thread). If you were so bothered about what the conversation was turning into you could have very easily commented about the cute toddler and redirected the conversation but you didn’t. You came to hand slap - as always - and it really wasn’t needed.

I don’t know why they wouldn’t share a photo like this of Archie. But I do think this was authorized by them. I also think the lack of photos is how she is choosing to protecting them - much like some parents who don’t want their kids photos posted on social media by other people.

I think it was allowed to be posted with their approval according to their spokesperson ( whoever that is ) who also thanked everyone on their behalf for their birthday wishes and donations to some charity in lieu of presents. Misan and his family are long time friends apparently. He, his wife and their two children were at the birthday party.

This thread went from a sweet photo of a little girl to “Harry & Meghan are hypocrites”. That is “picking on H & M” and being “snarky”. Why was their choice of transportation even brought up in this thread if it was just about a sweet photo of a little girl? But you were right, I was remiss in not commenting what a cute little girl she is. And she certainly is that. Unfortunately there are those on this board who will never miss an opportunity to take cheap pot shots at her parents.
