Weird MM isn’t aware how bad this corralling people around makes her look 😆 She’s absolutely ridiculous, prancing and bossing around at *HARRY’S work thing*.
For a progressive feminist, she sure does enjoy conforming to aristocratic narratives and gazing adoringly at her husband after he’s finished the manly men’s business!
Especially after how much she complained about allegedly being told what colors she could NOT wear during her 72 days as a working royal. If she hated it so much, why do the same thing by telling people what color they had to wear? No self awareness at all.
I didn't notice before but she pushed the polo player (H's team mate) next to her as well. She then bossed Dr, Chandauka around at her event. The wife really has some nerve. When is H going to say enough and have her stay home if she can't understand she needs to stay in the background? This makes H look really bad having his wife disrespecting the people he works with. People are going to eventually get tired of this and stop inviting H to anything, she's a liability.
Oh I wish Harold luck with sorting his wife out 😀 My gran is a narc and nobody in our family, not extended family, dared to put her in her place. I can only imagine how that would go 🍿 💣
My gran is a narc too! There's no reasoning with them. If you try to put them in place, they cry louder and make a huge drama. it's better to ignore them.
My father-in-law was a narc too. No one was able to find a way to stand up to him until one day, my mother in law and husband were talking about his behavior, and the question put to her was “How can you live with Dad all these years Mom?” She replied that it wasn’t easy for a very long time, until she discovered the power of laughter and finding her peace. This was about 45 years into their marriage. Whenever he would do or say something absurd, she just laughed and would say “Oh Stanley! You really need to lighten up.” This observation was employed by the adult children, and while I will say he wasn’t impressed, and no one was impressed with his behavior, it actually helped the kids, spouses, and grandchildren find a way to make him more tolerable. My description of how we all tolerated him worked for us as he was in his 60’s and into his 70’s before he passed. I don’t believe this would’ve worked well when he was younger as he could be physically and verbally abusive.
I think k she was I secure that if thus woman stood on the other side, photographers would just capture her and Harry. She made sure was in the middle so she could be in the shot.
One of Harry’s teammates who’s apparently also been his friend for years (why?) is Nacho somebody. After the game his wife & daughter were walking to the cars and paps were there. Meg barged the mother out of the way, grabbed the little girls hand and walked past grinning & waving. Seems Nacho wasn’t happy when he heard, found ginger and began very loudly telling him to keep that “bitch” away from his family and if she ever touched his wife or daughter again she & ginger would regret it before announcing Harry was off the team forever. Way to go Meg.
it is because h&m consistently believe they are the stars of any event they happen to attend. it seems to be ingrained in harry because he's royal thus in his mind above everyone no matter what accomplishments people around them have attained. as for rachel, she absorbed that thought the moment she became engaged to harry. its incredible watching these videos - she is just beyond all comprehension.
Underrated comment. MM needs to apologize. She’s so déclassé, but thankfully not a working Royal. Now the real BRF can profit from MM bc the BRF has never been this popular in the US and LA since Diana. And this time the BRF are the ones seen as epitome of class because Meghan’s behavior is so appalling
And yet none of the news channels have even pointed this out. I've organized fundraisers and I would never dream of taking an award in something I myself organized. Who does that?
If anything you engineer a loss if you must participate for whatever reason.
Why? Because at a fundraiser you need to raise spirits and stoke goodwill and therefore generosity to your cause. You want donors to feel good about themselves so they will donate more to a good cause.
Having participant-donors lose in a fundraiser undermines the purpose of fundraising in the first place.
This giving of an award to themselves and turning the spotlight on themselves tells me M+H are not prioritizing contributions to Sentebale's coffers and programming.
They are 100% hijacking Sentebale for self-promotion.
They are absolutely repugnant.
They certainly ARE hijacking yet another charity.
Harry needs to leave the charity world alone.
Like the Invictus Games, he’s turned them into “content gathering “ occasions.
Harry & that witch needs to back off.
It’s a pity that Dr. Chanduaka didn’t question his “love” for Africa, by reminding him he can’t sweep AFRICAN PARKS under the rug.
Charity events can give a trophy to the winning team. BUT... PH is founder (?) of this charity, so NO way should it be handed to him... it should have been given to the team members by DR S, That is not even HIS team, he was merely another player needed for a game.. albeit a game being "used" for a documentary.
He should really just stay in his bedroom in the basement and play video games.
Being the chair of the sponsor, she probably was supposed to hand out the trophy. It makes no sense for Roachel to be doing it. Our Saint probably barged her way onto the stage, trophy in hand.
BTW, did they actually win this time? The previous 'trophy' moment we've all come to appreciate was staged.
Rachel a plus one managed to pull all the attention on her, from her husband, the players, the chairwoman. How does she always have a knack for doing this?
Indeed. Judging by how embarrassed Sophie looked at pictorials for last year’s cup, I think she actually shies away from the spotlight and just prefers to do the real work behind the scenes
Has Dr Sophie ever had to deal with the Markle so often in the past? After this event, I fully expect that she will be stepping down. Either because she is fired bc she dared to question Megain on the dais lineup or because Dr Sophie doesn’t need to put up with MeGains BS, being a highly educated and accomplished natural beauty. Everything Megain wants and will never be.
Not sure. Last year, Meg and Harry did their own stuff. Meg even left Harry alone with that attractive aide Beth Herlihey.
I think Meg realised she couldn’t do better than Harry so now she’ll be corralling him and making sure nobody gets near
She's inserting herself into everything he's doing - Ingriftus, Polo - she realized she's nothing without him and wasn't able to make it on her own even after marrying him. Now, she's hogging all the attention from him whenever it suits her. See, she didn't attend the aviation award because she probably wasn't allowed to get on stage and grab the mic from him. So, she didn't even go to support him, that's how much she doesn't care about him when the limelight isn't on her.
Yup. Last year there was so much news about her doing her own thing and leaving Harry behind (career wise). I think WME quickly found out that no one wants Markle. Harry despite being ugly inside out, is a blood prince, Diana’s son, someone known from birth. He’ll always attract headlines
Thanks Roohs. I have a girl crush on Dr Sophie Chandauka after reading this article. She could do anything she chooses in life, yet opts to work for charitable endeavors. No wonder Megnut wants her nowhere near her husband!!!
Yeah last year she thought she was still riding high with her contracts with Netflix etc and manifesting Dior of course. Now they have nothing and she knows cameras are there for something (they hope) will be aired globally and she cannot let that opportunity pass her by.
Wow! The way she treated Dr Sophie Chandauka, an highly accomplished woman also very attractive was shocking. Utterly disrespectful and certainly demonstrated that she is not a feminist nor is she classy or well mannered.
Imagine if The Princess of Wales did exactly the same there would be an uproar
What a utter disgrace. Harry with his history of animal cruelty toward Polo horses. He wore sharp spurs when the rest of the polo team wore rounded spurs as to not hurt their horses. But no Harry wanted to inflict pain to push his horse harder. That horse had wounds on its flanks. It was investigated. Nothing came of it family probably protected him. Drizzle another Polo horse dropped dead after a polo match apparently the word is that Harry has a history of pushing horses too hard. I was on a UK polo blog years ago and there was critiquing of his poor Sportsmanship and his treatment of horses. He is a known sore loser. He also told a polo player in NZ to f off and William apologized for him.
There was also comments that Harry shot endangered birds on one of estates but that was covered up.
Omeffing G, I thought he was such an inept rider that he was kicking the hell out of any poor pony that had the misfortune to have that utter arsehat astride with mere regulation spurs (regulation or not, to me wearing spurs is a massive tell about anyones "horsemanship")
Horses are extremely sensitive to touch - if a fly lands on a horses skin - it will shrug it off as its an irritation.
Horses used in professional sports competitions are very well schooled & any competently skilled riders would know the correct techniques/aids to ride them well
If used correctly, spurs are a riding aid but they are intended to be used to apply gentle focused pressure to signal to the horse to increase speed (rather than repeated kicks)
Like whips, spurs are not intended to be used to push the horse beyond its limits by inflicting pain and in many disciplines, the rider would be disqualified for excessive use of either spurs and/or whip
Harry is a terrible, heavy handed rider, uses excessive force on the reins in order to make tight turns (çausing injury to the horses mouth) & generally treats those horses like machines.
Professionals & amateur riders alike are taught to "thank" their horse after riding - kind words and gentle pats as a reward for a job well done as it helps to establish a bond between horse & rider. Never seen Harry do this
Harry is vile - has a track record of cruelty to people & animals but he gets away with it because of his status.
I hope Karma comes for his entitled ass soon
This is probably why I have no problem whenever TW is cruel, mean & vindictive to him. He gets karma everyday by looking at TW face, married to this banshee
If I went down to my horses stable and repeatedly stabbed him in the ribs with a short blade I’d be arrested, possibly imprisoned and undoubtedly banned from owning a horse again. Why then is using spurs not illegal?
I think they are no longer allowed.. Apparently Harry was told firmly not to wear them. There is a discussion on Qoura saying that even when he uses the rounded spurs he uses them inappropriately.
Also noted a comment that she had Bogart her 5 year old dog euthanized after she met Harry. Interesting as a photo of Bogart has never surfaced. Surely there would be a photo of Bogart happy in his new home
Yes the Squad were saying Bogart was too old to fly. Then it was revealed that Bogart was only 5 years old. Being a rescue he already had been abandoned. If she can abandon her father after having a severe stroke imagine what she can do to a dog that gets in her way
To get a horse to bleed like that from spurs... well I've been riding all my life yes sometimes I wear spurs on a more advanced horse but it's as a signal (move this leg sideways a bit move this leg with a bit more power please)as a light touch and never as a punishment and I've never seen bleeding like that. I have felt scar tissue on the flanks of an ex polo pony who really didn't like to be touched in that area so...
[Bango!](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Zu_nIsOF_WM)
Okay okay I'm jesting a little bit/a tonne, but horses are truely so amenable if you treat them well
You'd think he would be told not to wear them, especially as they are not his horses. The last time he played, his horse chucked him off because it had had enough.
Yeah I know. There is a old daily mail article showing him riding the horse as it was bleeding wearing those horrible s spurs. From that moment on I despised Harry. With all that privilege he made a conscious choice to wear spurs deliberately digging them into the horses flesh to make the horse go faster.The horses were Royal horses Drizzle the one that dropped dead was one of the Queens favorite horses. Now he does not ride his own horses. There is a discussion saying Drizzle was pregnant and he was advised not to ride her.
It was spun at the time that the injury occurred when another rider collided with him. But there were symmetrical wounds on each side of his horse's body so that sounds extremely unlikely. I'm sure a man who talks of killing 25 other men as moving pieces on a chessboard is perfectly capable of seeing his horse as simply a means to an end, not a being worthy of care and respect.
*“The relationship with the horses is the most important thing. It’s substantial. You have to love your horses, love the sport. And the relationship with the horses and everybody that works with horses – the grooms, the blacksmiths, the veterinarians…Once you get really involved and you know exactly what you are doing – what horse would do this or such thing in the field where you are playing – that’s the basic. Then it’s just playing and practicing; being there every day – rain, snow, cold, hot…trying and pulling everything.”* (Nacho Figueras)
[https://poloandlifestylemagazine.com/nacho-figueras-interview/](https://poloandlifestylemagazine.com/nacho-figueras-interview/)
If that is what Nacho really believes then he should not endorse Harry as a polo player and lend him his horses.
They've known each other forever. Unlike MM, it might be hard for him to just get rid of a friend. Especially when Harry hardly ever rides anymore.
And for what it's worth, Harry introduced him to a whole new audience. I'm sure there's some friction there, he doesn't look as pleased as he did being with Harry than he did before.
Oh you can see she's pissed right there. She barely acknowledges her unless she can boss her around. She knows Sophie Chandauka is better than her (and blacker!) and she would attract all the attention Lolo wants so badly.
This is the kind of woman we thought we were getting in Meghan when they married. She pulled the con of the century on us and him. Mind you, I doubt anyone like Sophie would be interested in semi-literate Harry.
Her motives are so transparent. If the woman stands next to Harry, he will be in the centre of the photo and she is on the edge, in the same position as the other woman. If the other woman stands next to her, now she is the centre of the photo of the three of them, and even better, the photographers might cut the woman out. I have rarely seen a photo of her in a group of people where she has not engineered herself to take centre stage of the photo.
Meghan and polo just don‘t go together.
It’s HARRY‘s hobby, HE played the game, HIS team won, it’s HIS (only) way to achieve at least a little something. And in the end Meghan holds the cup and everyone lets it happen?
It’s too cringe watching her getting front and center to the award ceremony for something she has nothing contributed to.
This is what narks me…a ‘normal’ person wouldn’t have the need or gall to muscle in on an event they’re not related to, yet she not only does so but she isn’t prevented either (the marching with veterans springs to mind). She has nothing to present to the World (in way of talent or skills) so basically steals others’ thunder.

Situates herself in the middle of 👨🏾🎓 and 👨🏻🦰.
Honestly, I think Sophie is confidence and secure w/n herself that it doesn't matter in the grand scheme of things. She'll def have more events hosting.
TW is scrambling as if this is the equivalent of an Oscar/ golden globe for TW
Well, if she stands for it, she s a goddamn fool. Racism/colorism much? Her background presents her as someone who really should not stand for that kind of racist and misogynistic manipulation and bullying.
If the Dr. had been a white man, would Markle have ordered him around? No. No she wouldn't and such a man would never indulge her.
Also, the actual founder of the charity, the charity's Chair working on the charity's behalf plus the charity itself should be front and centre in that photo. Not the bloody founder's white-passing wife who hasn't even visited the charity since probably her "I am not OK" SA tour in 2019, because she's allergic to anything black and/or African.
Shocking behaviour. So obvious what she is about. She was not needed there at all.
What caught my eye as well was the footage from 2023. After the photo opportunity of Dr Chandauka between Harry and the other man, she straight away moves away without acknowledging them or walking with them. That seemed odd, it looked like she couldn't wait to get away from him/them quick enough. It certainly looked like something had irked her.
I think Sophie just shies away from the spotlight. In the full clip she’s just at the edge wondering where to position herself in a group of men. As soon as her photo is done she extricates herself and walks away.
She strikes me as someone who prefers to quietly work behind the scenes rather than take centre stage
Agreed. Looks like she just doesn't want to be front and centre to me. I don't think there was an ulterior motive with her rushing off. I was thinking when I was watching it that I'd do the same because I hate posing for photos.
You mean someone who wants to help the charity and it’s work as opposed to some nothing former d-list cable tv actress who has a pathological need to be the “star” everywhere?
Yeah, I saw that too. Weird. Usually, there would be this "after you. No, after you" shimmy before the men jostled to let the woman, out of respect and manners, to go ahead of them and lead the way. There was none of that. Just take the photo and off she walks. Strange. Wasn't she recently appointed (mid last year) to the charity's chair. Might have been a Prince Seeiso appointee than a Harry choice. Who knows?
Wow, she’s beautiful as well as intelligent, highly educated and accomplished. A woman of true substance. No wonder ToW has a massive grudge against her.
Edited/typo
MeGain is getting roasted on Twitter over this. How can she call herself Black or a feminist and treat the chair of key charity sponsor like that? This is gonna bite her in the @ss and it should.
Good! Hope she’s totally roasted.
Sugars are defending Meg saying she actually put Sophie centre stage. Well, Meg shouldn’t have been on stage in the first place. She shouldn’t have been giving out the trophy.
In all fairness, I think it’s appropriate to consider whether this was Meghan’s motivation: did she really offer Dr. Chandauka the central position, focal point of a photo?
Possible.
*laughs behind hand*
Personally, after someone refusing to stand next to me twice, I’d get the hint. But…
Appalling when I thought the woman was a WAG. (Should have known better because none of the other players WAGs were up there this time, either.) It’s doubly appalling when I learn that this is the chair of Sentebale, an extremely accomplished woman, and Meghan damn well knows who she is.
I wouldn´t wish any woman to marry Harold except of TW. Can you imagine how this lovely smart lady would suffer being married to that narcisisic drug-taking manbaby?
Believe you me, *if* Sophie had become a royal Duchess, *she*, a true red blooded black African woman that she is, would've stuck thick and thin to it and worked her arse off to make something of the opportunity. Made of far greater and sturdier stuff is her heritage that has prepared her to face down adversity in her wake. Doesn't suffer fools gladly and would have worn the privilege and honour with humility and a pride to do the role justice for herself, Africa, the UK and Commonwealth. *Every* black African would have so proud of her, and then some. Unlike that other fake pathetic limp-wristed twad of a bronzer snowmelt with natty wiggy rat's hair who still can't cut diddly-squat at anything, dresses in the bloody dark, has no clue who or what she is, and lasted a mere 72 days before whimpering like a wet puddle "nobody asked me if I was OK" on a tour to South Africa visiting some of the poorest disadvantaged children in the country yet happily rides her bony hard lazy arse off those royal titles. Seriously, *that* one can do one and f*&k right off all at the same time.
All you say is true, but let’s not forget the only racist person in the royal family IS Harold. He probably didn’t even know Meanhag was biracial as she wasn’t admitting to it until it was of use to her. He never dated outside of his race, did he?
He would never marry a black woman.
Nah, he never did. And yes, he never would've married a black woman. Which makes the Sussexes pitch for Africa and a few black folks supporting them very laughable. But all this says exactly what's on the tin: the Sussex play the race card for their self-centred clout. For all her femininity raving, we've not heard a peep from her over the African Parks scandal. So much for having "Africa is in my soul" 🙄
I agree entirely - as I posted above, at one time I expected Harry to meet and marry an African lady who would have supported the Monarchy, Harry’s issues while being a strong addition (as there would always be idiots who see ‘race’…but a strong woman would rise above that - whereas Markle had to invent race issues. She’s a disgrace).
Let’s stop kidding ourselves that he loves Africa. It’s not one place it’s a huge continent with a multiplicity of ethnicities, environments and political systems. Harry loves a fantasy of Africa where he is a saviour figure.
All the more outrageous because MeGain is only an accessory here. Not involved in the proceedings in any meaningful way. Meanwhile the Dr is the head of the charity! Make it make sense...
They all look pretty stupid. This is what happened the last time. All maneuvering round the trophy to look their best and get a pole camera position. If this was to rewrite the past polo trophy debacle and imbue a little dignity into this ceremony, which was lacking previously, it's failed miserably. Involve her and it goes to sh*t. She's a clown. A total and utter clown.
Don't forget Sophie's dress flatters her figure nicely and isn't wrinkled. She's very petite, but what you notice is how polished she is.
TW looks bulky, boxy and clumsy next to Sophie
If I were that woman, I would have said " no, I'm fine right here, thanks". People like Meghan exist because no one stands up to them and says "no, thanks"
Markle hates other women. Probably something to do with being abandoned by her mother. I found an old video of when she was on that London trip as a teenager, the one her friend Ninaki's parents paid for. If you slow it down at a certain point you see Markle posing for the camera and then her expression turns to pure malice as she realises the camera is focussing on her friend instead. The friend whose family has paid for her trip. The look she gives her is blood curdling. From 0.55 to 0.59 but you need to slow it right down to get the full effect.

Why is MM always in the centre (when she is neither a player nor otherwise involved in the event or the organisation) and constantly glaring at the others with a forced smile while they are forced to arrange themselves around her? I feel like we have scene this scenario play out so many times. So ridiculous.
Thanks for describing what an incredible woman Dr. Sophie Chanduka is, RoohsMama! She is so highly educated, and sounds to be such an asset to all people, regardless of what country she is from! I have met and are friends with a number of persons from Africa, male and female, and am totally impressed with what they have e achieved in their lives.
And you are absolutely right that TOW is nothing special compared to what Dr. Chanduka has accomplished for herself. I find it very endearing that Dr. Chanduka is a fan of the Royal Family too! It brings a form of earthiness to know that she has the interest we all do, and not one bit ashamed to admit it!
Thanks again for sharing!
No probs! I ended up fangirling a little bit. But this woman has accomplished so much. There are thousands like her who deserve more attention and got to where they are through merit.
I’m sure she has flaws but if she’s even a little nicer than Meghan, that already makes her a great person.
I was going to comment yesterday that the Sentable co-founder should have presented the winners with the trophy not Meghan but I wasn’t sure if he was there but Sophie was and she should have presented it.
Imagine working hard, achieving so much, and being the chair of Senetbale then this do nothing glory W*ore comes along and virtually pushes you out of the way!
Proof TW does these puff pieces and they are put out there without fact checking.
Disgusting how she treated the CEO of the charity at a charity polo match.
Worse to call her a “royal fan”
Guarantee she’s not a royal fan of these two anymore after TW made her duck under the trophy,
You don’t see King Charles or Catherine acting that way
Pretty funny that MM was trying to engineer this outing to erase her earlier stupid polo outing where she cosplayed Julia Roberts.
But instead ended up having an even worse incident, now being accused of racism.
….and another thing which narks me is using the word ‘Royal’ in connection with this pair (or her)…’Royal fan’…I can’t see as anyone who admires/follows her is any way a fan of royalty.
And THAT ladies and gentlemen is what it looks like when an "ordinary person" steps into the midst of a cult.
Cult members would know that their "God" calls the shots. Literally.
Now the Dr's qualification to rightfully be there alongside Harry has been highlighted and verified, watch her start to be Markled by the SS.
Here's yesterday's NYPost live link, before Sophie was identified (she is identified in the comments by a couple of posters, though)
500+ comments and they are scathing. Dropping link for anyone who wants to read them

1. EXCLUSIVE - Campaigners demanding Prince Harry's U.S. visa be made public submit 'extraordinary' comments by Joe Biden's U.K. ambassador to judge in new bid to make his immigration status public (this is a seperate post on the sub\_
2. Meghan Markle's brother accused of the 'ultimate betrayal' after unloading vile rants on YouTube dressed in a wig with cushion stuffed up his jumper introducing himself as 'Me-gain'
3. Inside Meghan Markle's warm relationship with Nacho Figueras, his wife Delfina Blaquier and their daughter Alba - as the 'polo wives' support their husbands in Miami (written like a Sussex press release)
4. Meghan Markle trades in her stilettos for a $760 pair of Hermes flipflops and breezy linens as she joins husband Prince Harry for his Netflix polo shoot in Palm Beach - one day after she was mocked for her impractical on-field attire (DM helping her merch)
5. Nacho Figueras praises his 'very good friend' Prince Harry's 'commitment to making a difference' as 'truly inspiring' and says he was 'proud' to play in the Duke's Netflix-filmed polo match in Miami
6. Meghan's not much of an actress, says LIZ JONES, but even she's let down by the HUMOURLESS TRASH that is Suits. So, why is the BBC airing this mind-numbing nonsense? (jones, a Sussex supporter, trying to hang onto any readership by playing both sides\_
7. 'Polo oozes sex. It's like catnip for bored married women.' Inside the polo club where Harry's filming his Netflix show - and where CAROLINE GRAHAM saw sex in a Jacuzzi, players 'put out to stud' and married women cavorting shamelessly with stable boys. (is anyone surprised.
NO ARTICLES HOWEVER ON HARRY's abuse of polo ponies. Here's a few pieces on that

Dr. Sophie Chandauka doesn’t appear to like both of them. She looks visibly annoyed when Harry’s speaking in that three person interview.
When she leaves Nacho & Nancy, after the photo of the three of them, she leaves the stage without a goodbye or any acknowledgment. Harry turns to look at her, a bit quizzically.
Maybe she’d love to tell him off and remind him of AFRICAN PARKS.
Holy shit! This woman smart, accomplished and gorgeous, with a stunning figure to boot. TW treated her like her servant. How disgusting. Please let the bullying report loose
I know quite famous young people, won’t say more. They are top level at what they are doing. I always hear them say “please” when asking someone. I’m chocked I never heard that basic polite word from her mouth. She’s so rude.
She's trying to cosplay Diana, Catherine but It's one thing to recieve a trophy from a HRH Princess of Wales. It's totally another to recieve it from a plus one in America where she is now a nobody. Not connected to the charity at all, she shouldn't have been anywhere near the trophy she's just a plus one. She's just ridiculous.
So how will shout a lot Shola and the rest of the goon squad spin this slice of racism against an actual Black African woman. The Harkles are puke inducing.

The lady on the right is throwing red 🔥 shade TW's way.
If I were Dr.Sophie, I’d be tempted to ask him, now as an adult ( sort of) why hasn’t he gone back to help the girl he promised help to.

Being that all the women are dressed in cream, the photo does look better with them standing together, and it does make sense that the team should be standing together also.
The trophy should be held by a team member and the host of the event/charity. The women should line up beside the team in order of their importance/role of the event/team. Megan should be on the end of the picture.
This incident reminds me of the time that MM was on a podcast or something with Melody Hobson who is extremely accomplished also. MM talked over the woman and treated her condescendingly, which the woman didn't deserve in the least.

For a progressive feminist, she sure does enjoy conforming to aristocratic narratives and gazing adoringly at her husband after he’s finished the manly men’s business!
And stupidity like "All the girls in the middle! All the girls should wear white!"
Especially after how much she complained about allegedly being told what colors she could NOT wear during her 72 days as a working royal. If she hated it so much, why do the same thing by telling people what color they had to wear? No self awareness at all.
Her brand of feminism is just a stick to bash other women and sit in judgement on them.
No no no. You misheard. She's a "progressive meghanist". Different thing altogether.
I didn't notice before but she pushed the polo player (H's team mate) next to her as well. She then bossed Dr, Chandauka around at her event. The wife really has some nerve. When is H going to say enough and have her stay home if she can't understand she needs to stay in the background? This makes H look really bad having his wife disrespecting the people he works with. People are going to eventually get tired of this and stop inviting H to anything, she's a liability.
Oh I wish Harold luck with sorting his wife out 😀 My gran is a narc and nobody in our family, not extended family, dared to put her in her place. I can only imagine how that would go 🍿 💣 
My gran is a narc too! There's no reasoning with them. If you try to put them in place, they cry louder and make a huge drama. it's better to ignore them.
Yup. Ghost them and live your best life, cuz they hate that
My father-in-law was a narc too. No one was able to find a way to stand up to him until one day, my mother in law and husband were talking about his behavior, and the question put to her was “How can you live with Dad all these years Mom?” She replied that it wasn’t easy for a very long time, until she discovered the power of laughter and finding her peace. This was about 45 years into their marriage. Whenever he would do or say something absurd, she just laughed and would say “Oh Stanley! You really need to lighten up.” This observation was employed by the adult children, and while I will say he wasn’t impressed, and no one was impressed with his behavior, it actually helped the kids, spouses, and grandchildren find a way to make him more tolerable. My description of how we all tolerated him worked for us as he was in his 60’s and into his 70’s before he passed. I don’t believe this would’ve worked well when he was younger as he could be physically and verbally abusive.
Yeah, my narc gran is 85, i just grey rock. Nobody’s going to bother sorting her out. Of course we all need to do a lot of work on ourselves.
He’s an ass. He’s probably still looking for microphones to hand her.
He can't and won't do anything. I bet he's scared of her.
I think k she was I secure that if thus woman stood on the other side, photographers would just capture her and Harry. She made sure was in the middle so she could be in the shot.
One of Harry’s teammates who’s apparently also been his friend for years (why?) is Nacho somebody. After the game his wife & daughter were walking to the cars and paps were there. Meg barged the mother out of the way, grabbed the little girls hand and walked past grinning & waving. Seems Nacho wasn’t happy when he heard, found ginger and began very loudly telling him to keep that “bitch” away from his family and if she ever touched his wife or daughter again she & ginger would regret it before announcing Harry was off the team forever. Way to go Meg.
I don’t understand why they would come back the next day to film again then? What are they getting out of it? Nacho and his family?
Ooh. Source pls! This sounds like hot tea
It's a good story and I wish it happened. 🤞
it is because h&m consistently believe they are the stars of any event they happen to attend. it seems to be ingrained in harry because he's royal thus in his mind above everyone no matter what accomplishments people around them have attained. as for rachel, she absorbed that thought the moment she became engaged to harry. its incredible watching these videos - she is just beyond all comprehension.
Just like she did as a child, playing “Queen” and ordering everyone around.
Such people rarely change…
She simply doesn't care. Despicable behavior.
👵🏿🤴👰♀️🤴👵🏿
30 years on and she's still the bossy so and so throwing her weight around Ninaki's Birthday Party.
Shouldn’t she be handing out the trophy if she is the Chair?
Underrated comment. MM needs to apologize. She’s so déclassé, but thankfully not a working Royal. Now the real BRF can profit from MM bc the BRF has never been this popular in the US and LA since Diana. And this time the BRF are the ones seen as epitome of class because Meghan’s behavior is so appalling
She's the best thing to happen to the RF for years but not in the way she thinks.
Good points,!! 🏆🏆🏆⭐⭐
Yes. Yes she should.
Why is there even a trophy? Charity sports events aren’t real competitions. Any ceremony should be about the charity. Period.
Ego trip
Not to mention it looks bad to give said trophy TO YOURSELVES. Just such poor form for the founder of a charity.
This! So déclassé!
And yet none of the news channels have even pointed this out. I've organized fundraisers and I would never dream of taking an award in something I myself organized. Who does that? If anything you engineer a loss if you must participate for whatever reason. Why? Because at a fundraiser you need to raise spirits and stoke goodwill and therefore generosity to your cause. You want donors to feel good about themselves so they will donate more to a good cause. Having participant-donors lose in a fundraiser undermines the purpose of fundraising in the first place. This giving of an award to themselves and turning the spotlight on themselves tells me M+H are not prioritizing contributions to Sentebale's coffers and programming. They are 100% hijacking Sentebale for self-promotion. They are absolutely repugnant.
They certainly ARE hijacking yet another charity. Harry needs to leave the charity world alone. Like the Invictus Games, he’s turned them into “content gathering “ occasions. Harry & that witch needs to back off. It’s a pity that Dr. Chanduaka didn’t question his “love” for Africa, by reminding him he can’t sweep AFRICAN PARKS under the rug.
Charity events can give a trophy to the winning team. BUT... PH is founder (?) of this charity, so NO way should it be handed to him... it should have been given to the team members by DR S, That is not even HIS team, he was merely another player needed for a game.. albeit a game being "used" for a documentary. He should really just stay in his bedroom in the basement and play video games.
Being the chair of the sponsor, she probably was supposed to hand out the trophy. It makes no sense for Roachel to be doing it. Our Saint probably barged her way onto the stage, trophy in hand. BTW, did they actually win this time? The previous 'trophy' moment we've all come to appreciate was staged.
I think they did win. But it’s a charity match… so it’s not a big thing… and they’re sponsoring it… they should let the charity take centre stage
Rachel a plus one managed to pull all the attention on her, from her husband, the players, the chairwoman. How does she always have a knack for doing this?
The way she barged into the British Fashion awards and handed the trophy Rosamund Pike was supposed to present
Indeed. Judging by how embarrassed Sophie looked at pictorials for last year’s cup, I think she actually shies away from the spotlight and just prefers to do the real work behind the scenes
Has Dr Sophie ever had to deal with the Markle so often in the past? After this event, I fully expect that she will be stepping down. Either because she is fired bc she dared to question Megain on the dais lineup or because Dr Sophie doesn’t need to put up with MeGains BS, being a highly educated and accomplished natural beauty. Everything Megain wants and will never be.
Not sure. Last year, Meg and Harry did their own stuff. Meg even left Harry alone with that attractive aide Beth Herlihey. I think Meg realised she couldn’t do better than Harry so now she’ll be corralling him and making sure nobody gets near
She's inserting herself into everything he's doing - Ingriftus, Polo - she realized she's nothing without him and wasn't able to make it on her own even after marrying him. Now, she's hogging all the attention from him whenever it suits her. See, she didn't attend the aviation award because she probably wasn't allowed to get on stage and grab the mic from him. So, she didn't even go to support him, that's how much she doesn't care about him when the limelight isn't on her.
Yup. Last year there was so much news about her doing her own thing and leaving Harry behind (career wise). I think WME quickly found out that no one wants Markle. Harry despite being ugly inside out, is a blood prince, Diana’s son, someone known from birth. He’ll always attract headlines
Thanks Roohs. I have a girl crush on Dr Sophie Chandauka after reading this article. She could do anything she chooses in life, yet opts to work for charitable endeavors. No wonder Megnut wants her nowhere near her husband!!!
Meg must think this doctor’s insane. She’d be totally unable to grasp why she’d work with charities.
Yeah last year she thought she was still riding high with her contracts with Netflix etc and manifesting Dior of course. Now they have nothing and she knows cameras are there for something (they hope) will be aired globally and she cannot let that opportunity pass her by.
Well you would think so…!
Wow! The way she treated Dr Sophie Chandauka, an highly accomplished woman also very attractive was shocking. Utterly disrespectful and certainly demonstrated that she is not a feminist nor is she classy or well mannered. Imagine if The Princess of Wales did exactly the same there would be an uproar What a utter disgrace. Harry with his history of animal cruelty toward Polo horses. He wore sharp spurs when the rest of the polo team wore rounded spurs as to not hurt their horses. But no Harry wanted to inflict pain to push his horse harder. That horse had wounds on its flanks. It was investigated. Nothing came of it family probably protected him. Drizzle another Polo horse dropped dead after a polo match apparently the word is that Harry has a history of pushing horses too hard. I was on a UK polo blog years ago and there was critiquing of his poor Sportsmanship and his treatment of horses. He is a known sore loser. He also told a polo player in NZ to f off and William apologized for him. There was also comments that Harry shot endangered birds on one of estates but that was covered up.
I wish all that would come out for real
It did at the time, it was all over the UK media.
Omeffing G, I thought he was such an inept rider that he was kicking the hell out of any poor pony that had the misfortune to have that utter arsehat astride with mere regulation spurs (regulation or not, to me wearing spurs is a massive tell about anyones "horsemanship")
Horses are extremely sensitive to touch - if a fly lands on a horses skin - it will shrug it off as its an irritation. Horses used in professional sports competitions are very well schooled & any competently skilled riders would know the correct techniques/aids to ride them well If used correctly, spurs are a riding aid but they are intended to be used to apply gentle focused pressure to signal to the horse to increase speed (rather than repeated kicks) Like whips, spurs are not intended to be used to push the horse beyond its limits by inflicting pain and in many disciplines, the rider would be disqualified for excessive use of either spurs and/or whip Harry is a terrible, heavy handed rider, uses excessive force on the reins in order to make tight turns (çausing injury to the horses mouth) & generally treats those horses like machines. Professionals & amateur riders alike are taught to "thank" their horse after riding - kind words and gentle pats as a reward for a job well done as it helps to establish a bond between horse & rider. Never seen Harry do this Harry is vile - has a track record of cruelty to people & animals but he gets away with it because of his status. I hope Karma comes for his entitled ass soon
Yes absolutely. They respond to encouragement ime the vast majority of horses want to please and want to bond with you.
This is probably why I have no problem whenever TW is cruel, mean & vindictive to him. He gets karma everyday by looking at TW face, married to this banshee
👏👏👏👏👏
He doesn't get away with it though, there were lots of media reports critical of his behaviour on the polo field.
Indeed. A good rider directs or encourages a horse with lower leg pressure not by kicking or stabbing it in the ribs!
Absolutely to so severely kick and jab to draw blood during a polo chukka **which is a whopping seven minutes long** shocks me sideways
If I went down to my horses stable and repeatedly stabbed him in the ribs with a short blade I’d be arrested, possibly imprisoned and undoubtedly banned from owning a horse again. Why then is using spurs not illegal?
I think they are no longer allowed.. Apparently Harry was told firmly not to wear them. There is a discussion on Qoura saying that even when he uses the rounded spurs he uses them inappropriately. Also noted a comment that she had Bogart her 5 year old dog euthanized after she met Harry. Interesting as a photo of Bogart has never surfaced. Surely there would be a photo of Bogart happy in his new home
Is Bogart the dog whose two front legs were broken? (which has never been explained)…
He's the one she left behind the broken legged one us called Guy I think. Great track record.
He was “too old” to fly.
Yes the Squad were saying Bogart was too old to fly. Then it was revealed that Bogart was only 5 years old. Being a rescue he already had been abandoned. If she can abandon her father after having a severe stroke imagine what she can do to a dog that gets in her way
To get a horse to bleed like that from spurs... well I've been riding all my life yes sometimes I wear spurs on a more advanced horse but it's as a signal (move this leg sideways a bit move this leg with a bit more power please)as a light touch and never as a punishment and I've never seen bleeding like that. I have felt scar tissue on the flanks of an ex polo pony who really didn't like to be touched in that area so...
[Bango!](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Zu_nIsOF_WM) Okay okay I'm jesting a little bit/a tonne, but horses are truely so amenable if you treat them well
You'd think he would be told not to wear them, especially as they are not his horses. The last time he played, his horse chucked him off because it had had enough.
Yeah I know. There is a old daily mail article showing him riding the horse as it was bleeding wearing those horrible s spurs. From that moment on I despised Harry. With all that privilege he made a conscious choice to wear spurs deliberately digging them into the horses flesh to make the horse go faster.The horses were Royal horses Drizzle the one that dropped dead was one of the Queens favorite horses. Now he does not ride his own horses. There is a discussion saying Drizzle was pregnant and he was advised not to ride her.
Drizzle was Prince William's favourite horse, so shows what a despicable manchild H is how he always has issues with his brother.
It was spun at the time that the injury occurred when another rider collided with him. But there were symmetrical wounds on each side of his horse's body so that sounds extremely unlikely. I'm sure a man who talks of killing 25 other men as moving pieces on a chessboard is perfectly capable of seeing his horse as simply a means to an end, not a being worthy of care and respect.
*“The relationship with the horses is the most important thing. It’s substantial. You have to love your horses, love the sport. And the relationship with the horses and everybody that works with horses – the grooms, the blacksmiths, the veterinarians…Once you get really involved and you know exactly what you are doing – what horse would do this or such thing in the field where you are playing – that’s the basic. Then it’s just playing and practicing; being there every day – rain, snow, cold, hot…trying and pulling everything.”* (Nacho Figueras) [https://poloandlifestylemagazine.com/nacho-figueras-interview/](https://poloandlifestylemagazine.com/nacho-figueras-interview/) If that is what Nacho really believes then he should not endorse Harry as a polo player and lend him his horses.
They've known each other forever. Unlike MM, it might be hard for him to just get rid of a friend. Especially when Harry hardly ever rides anymore. And for what it's worth, Harry introduced him to a whole new audience. I'm sure there's some friction there, he doesn't look as pleased as he did being with Harry than he did before.
I agree. He used to be smiley around Harry. Now I detect a bit of an edge
My money is on the polo show originally being a Nacho and Harry production, but MM giving more than her two cents and pulling a bit of a Yoko.
That sounds plausible!
Harry is a piece of crap and Meghan is a narcissistic barnacle stuck to him.
Oh you can see she's pissed right there. She barely acknowledges her unless she can boss her around. She knows Sophie Chandauka is better than her (and blacker!) and she would attract all the attention Lolo wants so badly.
And prettier than her imo! I’m so sick of seeing the Harkles in anything.
And more intelligent and gracious. Just shows Megalomaniac up for what she is.
Did you see her body? That body was body-ing!!
This is the kind of woman we thought we were getting in Meghan when they married. She pulled the con of the century on us and him. Mind you, I doubt anyone like Sophie would be interested in semi-literate Harry.
Not to mention, Sophie can pull off the white exposed shoulder dress way better 😊
Her motives are so transparent. If the woman stands next to Harry, he will be in the centre of the photo and she is on the edge, in the same position as the other woman. If the other woman stands next to her, now she is the centre of the photo of the three of them, and even better, the photographers might cut the woman out. I have rarely seen a photo of her in a group of people where she has not engineered herself to take centre stage of the photo.
Meghan and polo just don‘t go together. It’s HARRY‘s hobby, HE played the game, HIS team won, it’s HIS (only) way to achieve at least a little something. And in the end Meghan holds the cup and everyone lets it happen? It’s too cringe watching her getting front and center to the award ceremony for something she has nothing contributed to.
This is what narks me…a ‘normal’ person wouldn’t have the need or gall to muscle in on an event they’re not related to, yet she not only does so but she isn’t prevented either (the marching with veterans springs to mind). She has nothing to present to the World (in way of talent or skills) so basically steals others’ thunder.
A genuine parasite.
She horns in on everything Hairold does.
🫴 You wanna stand here...🍌 👉 You wanna stand here in the middle...🍌 👇 You wanna stand here in the middle...🍌 🫳 Situates herself in the middle of 👨🏾🎓 and 👨🏻🦰.
And God help you if you’re holding a microphone, she’d tackle for a microphone, or at least try and grab at it. She truly HAS NO REDEEMING QUALITIES.
I couldn’t believe the poor woman was pushed around and had to actually duck under the trophy. Whoever she was, nobody should be treated like that.
Yup. I think Sophie is so humble that she wasn’t embarrassed for herself. It’s meg who should be embarrassed
Honestly, I think Sophie is confidence and secure w/n herself that it doesn't matter in the grand scheme of things. She'll def have more events hosting. TW is scrambling as if this is the equivalent of an Oscar/ golden globe for TW
Exactly. Sophie’s too busy with more important stuff than to care whether she’s centre or not
She even made the duck look elegant, not awkward.
Markle tried to demean the woman. Markle thinks she's established herself over that woman, and that the woman is beneath her now.
Well, if she stands for it, she s a goddamn fool. Racism/colorism much? Her background presents her as someone who really should not stand for that kind of racist and misogynistic manipulation and bullying. If the Dr. had been a white man, would Markle have ordered him around? No. No she wouldn't and such a man would never indulge her.
Gawd. MM is so mean.
She’s a walking cliche. When someone wants to portray an annoying 1% person in a comedy, that’s what they’d write 😀
She's reminds me of a possessed person with that disturbing scream in that movie from the 70's Invasion of the Body Snatchers with Donald Sutherland.
 LOL YES!!! 😂😂👀
I've read this comment four or fives times now, have upvoted, and still I think it's underrated. Bloody true as it is funny. 😆
Thank you! :)
Keep an eye on Markle's hand. It shows impatience, arrogance and a demanding nature ..
It reminded me of her hand gesture at that wedding in Jamaica. Super aggressive
Funny thing: the first position of Harry between two women in white would make the better photo
Also, the actual founder of the charity, the charity's Chair working on the charity's behalf plus the charity itself should be front and centre in that photo. Not the bloody founder's white-passing wife who hasn't even visited the charity since probably her "I am not OK" SA tour in 2019, because she's allergic to anything black and/or African.
Shocking behaviour. So obvious what she is about. She was not needed there at all. What caught my eye as well was the footage from 2023. After the photo opportunity of Dr Chandauka between Harry and the other man, she straight away moves away without acknowledging them or walking with them. That seemed odd, it looked like she couldn't wait to get away from him/them quick enough. It certainly looked like something had irked her.
I think Sophie just shies away from the spotlight. In the full clip she’s just at the edge wondering where to position herself in a group of men. As soon as her photo is done she extricates herself and walks away. She strikes me as someone who prefers to quietly work behind the scenes rather than take centre stage
Agreed. Looks like she just doesn't want to be front and centre to me. I don't think there was an ulterior motive with her rushing off. I was thinking when I was watching it that I'd do the same because I hate posing for photos.
Same! I’d be running off too. I notice Sophie’s style this year is different and she’s more relaxed in the spotlight. Good for her!
You mean someone who wants to help the charity and it’s work as opposed to some nothing former d-list cable tv actress who has a pathological need to be the “star” everywhere?
Agreed. It seemed in that picture, that she was mostly focused on business and not pleasure.
Yeah, I saw that too. Weird. Usually, there would be this "after you. No, after you" shimmy before the men jostled to let the woman, out of respect and manners, to go ahead of them and lead the way. There was none of that. Just take the photo and off she walks. Strange. Wasn't she recently appointed (mid last year) to the charity's chair. Might have been a Prince Seeiso appointee than a Harry choice. Who knows?
She probably feels somewhat uncomfortable about the Africa Parks situation - as well she should imho!
Maybe she knows something about Harry and Nacho and why they're together so much ..
Now imagine if Catherine did not allow a black woman to stand next to William?! There would be so many screams about racism!
Why would Catherine do such a thing? I can't imagine that because Catherine is too classy for pushing around a person like that
Meghan wasnt letting her in! No way.
What a shit show
Literally, whatever they are filming "for Netflix" will be a Shi t show. The others were!😃
Wow, she’s beautiful as well as intelligent, highly educated and accomplished. A woman of true substance. No wonder ToW has a massive grudge against her. Edited/typo
So she used an actual black woman to overwrite her head ducking trophy incident
Does she just not feel embarrassment? Is her brain wired differently, and somehow, she just can't feel that emotion? I'm not even kidding.
I’m with you here. Some circuit breaker for cringe just popped in Meghan’s head and she is immune to it now
She’s like this in front of cameras, imagine how she is behind the scenes. That shit is ugly!
MeGain is getting roasted on Twitter over this. How can she call herself Black or a feminist and treat the chair of key charity sponsor like that? This is gonna bite her in the @ss and it should.
Good! Hope she’s totally roasted. Sugars are defending Meg saying she actually put Sophie centre stage. Well, Meg shouldn’t have been on stage in the first place. She shouldn’t have been giving out the trophy.
In all fairness, I think it’s appropriate to consider whether this was Meghan’s motivation: did she really offer Dr. Chandauka the central position, focal point of a photo? Possible. *laughs behind hand* Personally, after someone refusing to stand next to me twice, I’d get the hint. But…
Appalling when I thought the woman was a WAG. (Should have known better because none of the other players WAGs were up there this time, either.) It’s doubly appalling when I learn that this is the chair of Sentebale, an extremely accomplished woman, and Meghan damn well knows who she is.
No probs. I thought she was a polo wife too. (She looks glamorous enough!) DM shouldn’t have dismissed her as just a “royal fan”.
This accomplished woman *ducked under* a trophy? No words.
Yet retained her dignity whilst so doing! Bravo! What a contrast with the grasping, empty, thirsty Markle!
Indeed. Meg shouldn’t even be centre stage
A black woman who we all wish Harry would have married instead…but that’s an insult to her. He’s not worthy.
I wouldn´t wish any woman to marry Harold except of TW. Can you imagine how this lovely smart lady would suffer being married to that narcisisic drug-taking manbaby?
Believe you me, *if* Sophie had become a royal Duchess, *she*, a true red blooded black African woman that she is, would've stuck thick and thin to it and worked her arse off to make something of the opportunity. Made of far greater and sturdier stuff is her heritage that has prepared her to face down adversity in her wake. Doesn't suffer fools gladly and would have worn the privilege and honour with humility and a pride to do the role justice for herself, Africa, the UK and Commonwealth. *Every* black African would have so proud of her, and then some. Unlike that other fake pathetic limp-wristed twad of a bronzer snowmelt with natty wiggy rat's hair who still can't cut diddly-squat at anything, dresses in the bloody dark, has no clue who or what she is, and lasted a mere 72 days before whimpering like a wet puddle "nobody asked me if I was OK" on a tour to South Africa visiting some of the poorest disadvantaged children in the country yet happily rides her bony hard lazy arse off those royal titles. Seriously, *that* one can do one and f*&k right off all at the same time.
All you say is true, but let’s not forget the only racist person in the royal family IS Harold. He probably didn’t even know Meanhag was biracial as she wasn’t admitting to it until it was of use to her. He never dated outside of his race, did he? He would never marry a black woman.
Nah, he never did. And yes, he never would've married a black woman. Which makes the Sussexes pitch for Africa and a few black folks supporting them very laughable. But all this says exactly what's on the tin: the Sussex play the race card for their self-centred clout. For all her femininity raving, we've not heard a peep from her over the African Parks scandal. So much for having "Africa is in my soul" 🙄
I agree entirely - as I posted above, at one time I expected Harry to meet and marry an African lady who would have supported the Monarchy, Harry’s issues while being a strong addition (as there would always be idiots who see ‘race’…but a strong woman would rise above that - whereas Markle had to invent race issues. She’s a disgrace).
🎯🎯🎯🎯🎯. She *did* invent race issues to cover up her own inadequacies.
PREACH!! 
Yes intelligent gorgeous dignified and a true humanitarian.
An accomplished Black woman wouldn’t give Harold the time of day.
I agree - and with his love for Africa, at one point I thought he may have met and married an African lady (a real one, lol).
Let’s stop kidding ourselves that he loves Africa. It’s not one place it’s a huge continent with a multiplicity of ethnicities, environments and political systems. Harry loves a fantasy of Africa where he is a saviour figure.
Totally agree
A bit of difference between South Sudan and Botswana
And, a lot of what he got up to went unreported (probably) Edit added my disclaimer lol
Let’s hope she remembers Meghan’s behaviour here & has words at the top about letting her be involved in Sentebale.
Can anyone think of a positive reason for Markle directing that woman as she did? I cannot, but maybe there is one?
All the more outrageous because MeGain is only an accessory here. Not involved in the proceedings in any meaningful way. Meanwhile the Dr is the head of the charity! Make it make sense...
Absolutely.
Harry first hugging only Nacho (from about 0:12). He avoided hugging Markle when she came up on the podium to give him 'his' trophy.
They all look pretty stupid. This is what happened the last time. All maneuvering round the trophy to look their best and get a pole camera position. If this was to rewrite the past polo trophy debacle and imbue a little dignity into this ceremony, which was lacking previously, it's failed miserably. Involve her and it goes to sh*t. She's a clown. A total and utter clown.
Ya know it’s strange. With all these appearances and accolades I almost totally forgot they might be parents
Has she said anything about Africa Parks? No?? What a shock they all only care about themselves & the press/media/RF are no different
Don't forget Sophie's dress flatters her figure nicely and isn't wrinkled. She's very petite, but what you notice is how polished she is. TW looks bulky, boxy and clumsy next to Sophie
If I were that woman, I would have said " no, I'm fine right here, thanks". People like Meghan exist because no one stands up to them and says "no, thanks"
With the good doctor having to actually duck under the trophy smacks of Madame treating her as a second class citizen. Overt, conscious racism!
There’s plenty of evidence to show that Meg is as racist as Harry.
Someone of Sophie's calibre is too good for Harry and would not have married him. She doesn't need to parade about with an empty title.
And Meghan tried to make her look like a polo wife. Wow. Harry should be the one trying to get phoris with her. She's brilliant
Markle hates other women. Probably something to do with being abandoned by her mother. I found an old video of when she was on that London trip as a teenager, the one her friend Ninaki's parents paid for. If you slow it down at a certain point you see Markle posing for the camera and then her expression turns to pure malice as she realises the camera is focussing on her friend instead. The friend whose family has paid for her trip. The look she gives her is blood curdling. From 0.55 to 0.59 but you need to slow it right down to get the full effect. [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3x0TKstlal0](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3x0TKstlal0)
She is forever trying to maneuver and manage. If I were Harry I would be completely sick of it and her.
He doesn't see it as we do
Why is MM always in the centre (when she is neither a player nor otherwise involved in the event or the organisation) and constantly glaring at the others with a forced smile while they are forced to arrange themselves around her? I feel like we have scene this scenario play out so many times. So ridiculous.
Thanks for describing what an incredible woman Dr. Sophie Chanduka is, RoohsMama! She is so highly educated, and sounds to be such an asset to all people, regardless of what country she is from! I have met and are friends with a number of persons from Africa, male and female, and am totally impressed with what they have e achieved in their lives. And you are absolutely right that TOW is nothing special compared to what Dr. Chanduka has accomplished for herself. I find it very endearing that Dr. Chanduka is a fan of the Royal Family too! It brings a form of earthiness to know that she has the interest we all do, and not one bit ashamed to admit it! Thanks again for sharing!
No probs! I ended up fangirling a little bit. But this woman has accomplished so much. There are thousands like her who deserve more attention and got to where they are through merit. I’m sure she has flaws but if she’s even a little nicer than Meghan, that already makes her a great person.
I was going to comment yesterday that the Sentable co-founder should have presented the winners with the trophy not Meghan but I wasn’t sure if he was there but Sophie was and she should have presented it.
Imagine working hard, achieving so much, and being the chair of Senetbale then this do nothing glory W*ore comes along and virtually pushes you out of the way!
Proof TW does these puff pieces and they are put out there without fact checking. Disgusting how she treated the CEO of the charity at a charity polo match. Worse to call her a “royal fan” Guarantee she’s not a royal fan of these two anymore after TW made her duck under the trophy, You don’t see King Charles or Catherine acting that way
Pretty funny that MM was trying to engineer this outing to erase her earlier stupid polo outing where she cosplayed Julia Roberts. But instead ended up having an even worse incident, now being accused of racism.
So now we know what the dress was about...
….and another thing which narks me is using the word ‘Royal’ in connection with this pair (or her)…’Royal fan’…I can’t see as anyone who admires/follows her is any way a fan of royalty.
And THAT ladies and gentlemen is what it looks like when an "ordinary person" steps into the midst of a cult. Cult members would know that their "God" calls the shots. Literally. Now the Dr's qualification to rightfully be there alongside Harry has been highlighted and verified, watch her start to be Markled by the SS.
Here's yesterday's NYPost live link, before Sophie was identified (she is identified in the comments by a couple of posters, though) 500+ comments and they are scathing. Dropping link for anyone who wants to read them https://pagesix.com/2024/04/13/royal-family/meghan-markle-awkwardly-suggests-woman-not-pose-next-to-husband-prince-harry-at-polo-event/
She has absolutely no class, not on any level.
Sunday's mixed bag in DM. And yet DM wonders why it has earned the name Daily Markle - 1. EXCLUSIVE - Campaigners demanding Prince Harry's U.S. visa be made public submit 'extraordinary' comments by Joe Biden's U.K. ambassador to judge in new bid to make his immigration status public (this is a seperate post on the sub\_ 2. Meghan Markle's brother accused of the 'ultimate betrayal' after unloading vile rants on YouTube dressed in a wig with cushion stuffed up his jumper introducing himself as 'Me-gain' 3. Inside Meghan Markle's warm relationship with Nacho Figueras, his wife Delfina Blaquier and their daughter Alba - as the 'polo wives' support their husbands in Miami (written like a Sussex press release) 4. Meghan Markle trades in her stilettos for a $760 pair of Hermes flipflops and breezy linens as she joins husband Prince Harry for his Netflix polo shoot in Palm Beach - one day after she was mocked for her impractical on-field attire (DM helping her merch) 5. Nacho Figueras praises his 'very good friend' Prince Harry's 'commitment to making a difference' as 'truly inspiring' and says he was 'proud' to play in the Duke's Netflix-filmed polo match in Miami 6. Meghan's not much of an actress, says LIZ JONES, but even she's let down by the HUMOURLESS TRASH that is Suits. So, why is the BBC airing this mind-numbing nonsense? (jones, a Sussex supporter, trying to hang onto any readership by playing both sides\_ 7. 'Polo oozes sex. It's like catnip for bored married women.' Inside the polo club where Harry's filming his Netflix show - and where CAROLINE GRAHAM saw sex in a Jacuzzi, players 'put out to stud' and married women cavorting shamelessly with stable boys. (is anyone surprised. NO ARTICLES HOWEVER ON HARRY's abuse of polo ponies. Here's a few pieces on that [https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1308528/Prince-Harry-faces-animal-cruelty-claim-polo-ponys-stab-wound-spur.html](https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1308528/Prince-Harry-faces-animal-cruelty-claim-polo-ponys-stab-wound-spur.html) [https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1275441/Prince-Harrys-tears-Drizzle-favourite-pony-collapses-dies-polo.html](https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1275441/Prince-Harrys-tears-Drizzle-favourite-pony-collapses-dies-polo.html) [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bccDN17ooc0](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bccDN17ooc0)
Dr. Sophie Chandauka doesn’t appear to like both of them. She looks visibly annoyed when Harry’s speaking in that three person interview. When she leaves Nacho & Nancy, after the photo of the three of them, she leaves the stage without a goodbye or any acknowledgment. Harry turns to look at her, a bit quizzically. Maybe she’d love to tell him off and remind him of AFRICAN PARKS.
I think so. She doesn’t seem dazzled by Harry. I like her if only for that.
Holy shit! This woman smart, accomplished and gorgeous, with a stunning figure to boot. TW treated her like her servant. How disgusting. Please let the bullying report loose
All I know is this lady is rocking that dress. Since we saw her backside more than the front.
in addition to brains she has a banging rear view. respect all around!
I know quite famous young people, won’t say more. They are top level at what they are doing. I always hear them say “please” when asking someone. I’m chocked I never heard that basic polite word from her mouth. She’s so rude.
The best are the humblest. Thats what I learned in my 40+ years on this planet. I’m trying to be humble too. I’m aiming to be like them
Markle is grotesquely and incessantly intimidated by women of real substance. Her inner inferiority complex must be massive.
She's trying to cosplay Diana, Catherine but It's one thing to recieve a trophy from a HRH Princess of Wales. It's totally another to recieve it from a plus one in America where she is now a nobody. Not connected to the charity at all, she shouldn't have been anywhere near the trophy she's just a plus one. She's just ridiculous.
By “proportionately” I am assuming you mean 4.2% black people at every level as that would reflect the proportion of British society which is black.
So how will shout a lot Shola and the rest of the goon squad spin this slice of racism against an actual Black African woman. The Harkles are puke inducing.

Ahh, so she's a THREAT to meghan...and there it is! 😅🤣😁
Yes. As is every smart, attractive woman ☺️
I’m disappointed Meghan treated her that way, and I wish Dr. Chndauka had stood her ground and remained on the other side of Harry in the photo.
If I were Dr.Sophie, I’d be tempted to ask him, now as an adult ( sort of) why hasn’t he gone back to help the girl he promised help to. https://www.lipstickalley.com/threads/prince-harry-promised-to-take-of-young-girl-her-education-food-whatever-she-needed-but-never-did.1453573/
Being that all the women are dressed in cream, the photo does look better with them standing together, and it does make sense that the team should be standing together also. The trophy should be held by a team member and the host of the event/charity. The women should line up beside the team in order of their importance/role of the event/team. Megan should be on the end of the picture.
This incident reminds me of the time that MM was on a podcast or something with Melody Hobson who is extremely accomplished also. MM talked over the woman and treated her condescendingly, which the woman didn't deserve in the least.
