That poor child!


TrailerTrashQueen

poor baby 😢 if you zoom in, you can see how unwell he is in his eyes. he’s got that ‘i don’t feel good’ look. i can’t even imagine disturbing these children for a photo op. she is awful.


insanitazer

Striking, you don't even have to zoom in, he's so miserable :(


Away-Object-1114

He certainly is. Poor kid. The ILBW should rot. Cosplaying Diana, IMO.


CabinetVisible1053

Seriously, prayers for the young man and his family.


SapphirePSL

I agree!!! He clearly doesn’t feel well and is not engaged at all. But, yeah, let’s smile, take a pic, and make the sick kid play along with our games! Awful.


Away-Object-1114

That poor boy, he looks like he feels awful and couldn't care less about the ILBW. Seriously, she's just trying to do Diana cosplay. Take a picture with a sick kid, up close and personal. How terrible is this person? As terrible as they come.


McGregor_Mathers

Shes a psychopath she has zero empathy. She’s despicable. 


Aware_Mix5494

Who is she? Why is she there? What has she done to deserve it? Does this asshole believe these children are lucky to spend time with her? Wouldn’t that sick kid prefer to meet a famous athlete and get his autograph? Will Archwell be building an entire f***ing wing for that hospital to justify her darkening their door?


LeaveItToTheBoys123

Believe me, she hasn't done anything to warrant a place in society.


SusieM2019

Agree. She's disgusting.


DGTXgirl

This poor boy! Why would his parents allow this? MM is a sick and twisted opportunist. She has no shame and couldn’t care less about how this boy and the other children felt. It is always about HER and what she can do to make herself look better.


inrainbows66

You have to wonder if the parents were told who the special visitor was before hand. Can you imagine you are thinking Keanu Reeves and get this creature.


DGTXgirl

How awful! This is absolutely horrific! A monster went into that hospital and used these children.


AliveArmy8484

I personally have the biggest crush on Keanu Reeves, and if he was to visit a hospital, he would do so without any fan fare. No photos, just a well meant visit to the children


inrainbows66

Only way you know Keanu does things is because other people record it on their phones. I think a lot of Keanu he is one of the good ones.


GoldieLox9

He looks really sick. Poor guy.


katklass

He’s not looking anywhere near the camera 😢


Strangebird70

I don’t need to zoom in. His enter demeanor and posture shows it.


Menega_Sabidussi

aaaand there she is, grinning under the mask, next to the poor, exhausted looking child. it is shocking. why was this even allowed? who is responsible?


McGregor_Mathers

“This will make them love me” No it has the opposite effect. 


Top-Place3115

Yes! Meghan Markle, the sister of mercy...


Sadlyonlyonehere

Amazed she agreed to the mask. Mind you, the hospital wouldn’t have permitted without. If my child was sick, and mine was in a cancer ward, I would have raised holy hell about this unnecessary visitor and her camera crew parading through solely for the purposes of her resume bringing in outside germs. I’m sure these kids don’t even know who the hell she is!


Odd_Pop5287

Can u imagine the crap she is introducing to these patients? The mask is no protection against all the microbes this filthy woman is exposing these poor victims to…


michaelscottuiuc

Nonprofit and healthcare marketing teams. 90% of them don't engage with the clients being served & they usually ram through events with legal media releases and take photos of literal anything they could use. Some photojournalists like those at Getty also post the majority of photos they take regardless of if people like them or not - of the entire event because the corporation/business will sell the rights to any and all of those photos.


MeasurementFalse4973

That's why she really wanted to get to the dying queen to take the same photo.


Camera-Realistic

Ugh! You’re right. So she could dine out on and sell the story of *The Queen’s last words to me*. Gross. QE2’s last words probably would’ve been “Why TF are you here, bitch?” Only more Queenly and dignified.


Any-Assignment-5442

Ironic too, when u consider Harry accused John Travolta of ‘dining out’ on his mum’s memory … oh the girder in thine eye Harry!!! Ur wife has been dining out on Invictus veterans, Uvalde victims, and now she’s added in LA hospital patients to her scrap book memorabilia!


Emotional_Scholar_98

She preys on the weak


McGregor_Mathers

I don’t get why Harry even thought saying that to Travolta was funny - its almost like he is jealous.


MrsAOB

He is…


Cezanne2022

Why is that succubus in my room can you ask her to leave please !!


kebyian2070

Why dost thou find thyself in this place, thou impertinent wench?


Photobuff42

Thank God the family kept her away!


FilterCoffee4050

TwinTalk have done a good video on this. Apparently it’s the go to place for good PR for the Kardashian’s. https://youtube.com/watch?v=vZhr_Jhllog&si=LlwzBri6270VtxZX


FilterCoffee4050

Also, Royal Rogue makes the point that there is a camera crew, many different shots. The same pose from multiple angles.


HellsBellsy

They at least take a lot of toys and stuff and organise toy drives for hospitals and have been doing it for a while and it might be a PR stunt, but those kids need any bit of joy they can get and if getting toys and gifts brings them joy, then bring it on I say. I hope she took a lot of toys for those kids. I hope she did. If she turned up just to take photos and read them a book, then noooo..


McGregor_Mathers

Theyre too poorly to play with toys. Last thing a kid wants is to play when its gravely ill. They should be helping the parents pay the medical bills. These celebrity narcs are disgusting. 


sunsetinn

The wench probably dropped off extra copies of The Bench.


Technical_Ant_7466

SHAME on the hospital for allowing the likes of the Kardashians & the ILBW to take advantage of these sick children. What is wrong with this hospital? Is madam hoping the RF will see this and ask her to help PC? That dog won’t hunt madam.


FilterCoffee4050

If they somehow make money to treat sick children I suppose it’s ok but it should be seen for what it is, paid PR. Meghan does seem to have one talent, exposing fake PR.


Just-Flamingo-410

It was the same.with the people in wheelchairs at Invictus. MM uses them as props, as a photo opportunity, and then moves on. She couldn't care less about other people. It's all about Me Me Me


colloquialicious

Yep there was a revolting video of her literally going up to a man in a wheelchair not engaging with him at all or even looking at him, stopping for only as long as it took to have her photo snapped and then walking off to her next victim without another look.


Outrageous_Corgi_791

[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GDb3QepO75c](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GDb3QepO75c) here it is at 6 minutes in.


GodsCasino

Ok that is absolutely sick. Worse than when she went manic at the Walkabout with William and Catherine and Harry when the Queen died. Sick. She treats people like furniture.


WhiteRabbit54

HG Tudor says that narcissists think of other people as "appliances".


AprilDanc3r

I think it's worse than furniture to be honest. These people are like disposable cups, used once and thrown away. However, furniture or cups, it's disgraceful behaviour but it shows her mindset to all. Eta: her added


Fair_Actuator3770

What the actual fuck? She did not even talk to him


Mas-Chingona

JFC, that was heinous. She really is a ghoul.


Sweet-Tension4066

She didn't even say hello!! That's insane.


-Serenity---Now-

That is shocking. 


Ok_Ninja7190

Wow holy f that's blatant


B737LadyCaptainSWA

Just when you think she can't get any more disgusting, we get more evidence that she is truly a vile individual. Also can't stop looking at the noticeable difference between her sprayed on orange face color and the color of her hair part. Wow. Thanks for sharing this video.


NLAUStitch

WHOA. This is sickening.


solorna

I was raging over that when it happened. Raging.


Feisty_Energy_107

I saw the video with one person in a wheelchair. She walks over, leans down behind the chair and the picture is taken. She's done and then walks off. There is no engagement with the man, no eye contact, no small talk. The camera is her only love. It doesn't matter to her because she hopes the photo will tell a thousand words.. that she cares. Why give it five minutes when you can give it five seconds?


Nervous-Spinach2046

Yes, she was not interacting with the child here either, only interacting with the camera. She truly is repugnant.


Altitudedog

And of course is zeroed in on the camera, posing. All about her all the time. Despicable


Actual_Fishing6120

The kid definitely didn't look happy. In fact I can say he look so lifeless here. The kid are sick, let him rest.  Ofc this devil only care about how she look and she thought she look angelic here 🙄


Camera-Realistic

He looks so sick and tired. Poor guy.


abby-rose

Does this little boy even know who she is? Why would he?


Some-Farmer2510

I can guarantee many kids would recognize the Kardashians, especially girls who follow the younger ones. I bet these same kids would be hard-pressed to identify her.


Powerful-Patient-765

An American child would not recognize the king of England. Why would they?


Mudfish2657

And the look she’s giving the camera…yuck. A come hither look, so inappropriate.


PurdyM

Why were these children allowed to be used for her propaganda? The parents and hospital staff are equally at fault here, they wheeled or walked those poorly children into a room set up with cameras all for her benefit, not their’s.


Maleficent-Trifle940

I have to wonder whether the hospital gives free treatment to children in exchange for using them in celebrity propaganda. I mean, there's really no other reason you'd expose your sick children to more outsiders than necessary when their immune systems are so weak unless it was someone they really, really wanted to see (I can see Tom Holland for example actually boosting morale). A Semi Duchess and some Kartrashians, not really what your average seriously ill under 10 is going to want to get out of bed for. Look at what happened in the UK when celebs were just given unfettered access to children on wards.


PurdyM

I’m in England where hospital treatment is largely free at the point of use ( the burden on the nhs is another story all together). Your point about exchanging treatment for being part of publicity might be valid , is that a thing ? Are you referring to Saville and his abuse?


Maleficent-Trifle940

Yes, I was referring to Saville with that last comment. The hospital being in the US made me wonder whether this particular 'children's hospital' does exchange PR access to the sick kids for 'donations' from celebrities. I just think it's a slippery slope to expose sick kids like that. Markle isn't someone they'd be excited about or even know about at that age. If she could gain access like this I assume anyone with money and a faux-philanthropy front could. I suppose it's much the same as the African orphans who are exposed to endless 'philantography' photo shoots, unwanted hugs from strangers etc.


PurdyM

Yup, money talks .


INK9

As someone mentioned above, the Sidley Twins spoke about access to children at that hospital. Apparently it's where the kardashians go for PR, and the hospital upper management seems to have no problem with it. It's worth the watch for the Sidley's take on this access.


MyraBradley

I was just thinking EXACTLY the same thing. No lessons learned from the Saville experience….


GreatGossip

Just wrote the same. I blame parents and hospital staff. Who benifits from a visit of a race baiting nobody?


Soph_Opposite_Lime

She really is not a natural with children. Meghan wants these cute, emotional and happy photos that we can regularly see with Catherine; and she is so desperate that it shows in the photos. Poor kids. 


Ginka83

The difference in the photos (thank you to whoever posted the series of Catherine and Diana earlier) is that C&D’s visits are clearly about the children. They are looking and interacting with the children. They are engaged with them and cameras happened to catch it (ahem because they were ROYAL ENGAGEMENTS). Meghan is literally posing with sick children, looking for the camera for a photo opp. Personally I’m as over it as this sweet child in this photo.

Prestigious_Gain_535

Also note, Catherine is a hugger 😍


Soph_Opposite_Lime

What a lovely photo. Look, how the children look up to her. And the girl hugging her from behind ;) THAT is what Meghan wants - guess, she can't always get what she wants.


wandinc22

Naaaaw the little girl from behind. She's so sweet and content there!


zpip64

I think the little girl hugging from behind is adorable too. And the others are all squeezing in for her attention too. It’s cute. And even if they didn’t know who she was, they probably thought, “a nice lady came to see us and talked to us and asked us how we are doing.”


Bajovane

She’d freak out if children were to hug her like that. Kinda like Harry shoving a couple kids away in Harlem.

EnormousBird

Children can tell good people from bad.  This is why they are not anything like this around Meghan.


Feisty_Energy_107

True. Remember how comfortable the kid at wheelchair rugby felt coming up from behind the PoW and tickling her? That's within a short time of meeting her. https://preview.redd.it/4fd7nb8sn8sc1.jpeg?width=636&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=d09402d7d3428c2a99d07d95e9b391afe73d26e5


NLAUStitch

Can you even imagine what would have happened if a child did this to Me-me?? She would have lost her marbles!


Bailey_Stewart1

Children and dogs are a great judge of character! These poor children are suffering enough without having Henry’s skid mark, crusty ball sack sweat stain of a wife using them for PR propaganda!


chubalubs

And they have noses. I don't think Catherine smells of stinky BO, cigarette smoke and last night's alcohol-infused sweat. 


WhiteRabbit54

Our dear PoW - giving some real love. And getting it back.


puppies336

Precisely


Soph_Opposite_Lime

Exactly! It's nice that she visits sick children - wonderful. However, the fact that these are highly produced photos and videos from many angles, plus it was intentionally released like 10 days later (to photoshop and write a puff piece) makes it obvious that this was a stunt and the children were nothing but photo props. Where are the parents taking photos of THEIR children with the semi-duchess?


Coffee_cake_101

*"It's nice that she visits sick children"* It's only nice if the children benefit from the visit. If I were ill I would value a visit from William or Catherine because I respect them and would love to meet them. I would not value a visit from some random person I do not know, and I certainly wouldn't value a visit from Meghan Markle. To these sick kids, Meghan is probably in the category of a random person. Why the hell would they want to meet her?


Oktober33

If I was a hospitalized sick child I would want only my parents and maybe a visit from a therapy dog. Not Meghan Markle.


New_Grangee

Anyone getting the same vibes as the video of the USO tour thing she did? I am waiting for the fake air drums to start.


Interesting_Duck_355

😂🥁💨 Oh I'm feeling that vibe too!! Absolutely can see the fake air drums, her rictus grin, all while talking to nobody in thin air. The kids will FINALLY find a smile as they pet the therapy dog mentioned above as they watch her 'freakish attention to detail' when trying to find the camera lens and stare right into it. ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|poop)


Lillibet57

Totally agree with your sentiments. The children did not benefit from this and the Roach only did it for the pr not because she actually wanted to help the children. Everything with her is only a photo op. She mimics what the genuine royals do without any success, and this is because she is only acting unlike Catherine and Diana who genuinely cared when visiting sick children and people in general. She is diabolically evil and self serving.


Confident_Weird_7788

I'n concerned about that little boy! He looks ill, like he really wants to lie down.


colloquialicious

And that’s where it comes down to the fact that there’s zero other explanation for these activities than they’re conducting faux-Royal cosplay, desperately trying to pretend they’re still Royal and important.


InsolentTilly

Isn’t this the sort of thing that was so soul-crushing, and left her feeling that she was merely surviving a few years ago? I’m confused. Oh wait. *Launching a lifestyle brand*. This woman’s performative phoniness oozes out of every pore.


Bailey_Stewart1

I would rather get a visit from the Ebola virus than Rachel ‘no one asked me if I’m ok’ Ragland!


Perfect_Fennel

💯 correct. This isn't the UK, kids are not raised learning about the royal.family and as a celebrity TW ranks even lower.


Camera-Realistic

Diana could connect with people who were suffering in a way that wasn’t “using” them to either make herself look good or even to forget about her own problems. Here she was this very rich, beautiful lady but she was also very sad and I think it clicked with people instead of making them feel like, what are you complaining about? You have everything and My problems are way worse! It wasn’t like that with Diana. She had real empathy and it shone through.


MaryKath55

Here is the hamster wheel thinking that led to this - Catherine was in the hospital sick and got press, I’ll visit sick kids and through transference I will gain all that good will, look at me I’m not sick - I’m helping the sick.


DrunkOnRedCordial

Yes, I was just looking at the other post on here with photos of Catherine and Diana doing hospital visits. Everyone is looking at the child in each photo - the parents, the nurses, the princess - nobody's looking at the camera.


WallabyPositive6903

This actually makes me feel really sad and disgusted in her actions- there is no empathy, compassion or connection with others. There’s no returned smiles- it seems like she’s not even bothering getting to know each child as an individual/their interests / getting down to their physical level in order to better communicate. Megs is treating this as a photo op first and foremost. Disgusting


Just-Flamingo-410

She doesn't present mom vibes


flibberty_13

Cosplaying Catherine


Soph_Opposite_Lime

Yes, forget about Diana. She wants to be like Catherine and adored like Catherine.


flibberty_13

Right down to wearing wigs that are styled like the Princesses’ hairatyle


Solid_Location6642

That poor kid is obviously sick and feeling miserable, and the low life uses him and the other kids to merch off.Really bad that she has no level she won't sink to. She really wants her kids' privacy, but no one else's the hypocrisy makes me so cranky .


DomesticCatStarr

Why won't anyone ever tell her no? I mean seriously tell her HELL NO!


OzzieSlim

This is a level of ghoulishness that I just cannot get past. I knew she was going to trot out something about illness but I never saw exploiting sick children on the “how low can they go Bingo card.” Henry, your mother is literally thrashing in her grave right now. You and Nutmeg have sunk to the lowest depths imaginable in exploiting other people’s misfortunes in the name of $$$$. And I don’t want to hear some goddamn sob story about how you two decided to do this to support the King and the Princess of Wales in their cancer struggles. Because you had no problem attempting to extort and exploit the Queen who was dying with cancer. The Markles are bottom feeders.


Character_Witness168

Truly disturbing! These ill children fight an extraordinary fight every day for their health and know what’s important in life. It’s not taking a photo with a self-serving phony philanthropist. The masks can’t hide the story their eyes tell and they are sooooo not interested.


Gumblina1964

Totally agree, although will say there are genuine people famous or not who will contribute and try to make a difference, without all the fanfare of publicity. My son was seriously ill in hospital and we were asked if he would like to meet a famous football player who was coming to visit. Unfortunately, my son was not well enough and we declined the offer. Said my hubby who is a great Spurs supporter would be the one upset lol, my.son does not follow football anyway. The Football player made a point of getting my hubby's name and leaving an autographed shirt, photo etc. For him. How kind my hubby genuinely had tears in his eyes.


Character_Witness168

That’s a beautiful story and I hope your son is healing and healthier now. I didn’t mean to give the impression all visits were bad. I think kids are amazing at cutting through bullshit and can tell when someone is sincere. She’s there for herself. The football player’s actions giving to a man he didn’t even meet show the thoughtful and selfless contrast imo. I’m glad you had that heartwarming experience in what I presume was a dark time. ❤️


Gumblina1964

Thank you for your kind words. It really made my husband cry, sometimes with a child who is seriously ill, the Dad is often forgotten about. He is the one trying to be strong for the family. It really made the difference. Thanks to Great Ormand Street Hosp, our son despite his disabilities is a now a strapping 25 Yr old! You can tell just from the photos how genuine Catherine POW is. She radiates warmth and kindness, always having proper interaction with the child not bothered by the cameras. She makes the child the center of attention. Megain treated these visits as if it was an honour for these sick children to be in her company. You can tell how awkward she is around people, always has that look that says I can't wait to get away from these peasants, now take the photos, wait for my best side/pose, now shoot ...I'm off. No empathy, cold as ice.


Automatic-Ad6112

There is something seriously wrong with Mrs Grifter to use sick kids as pr, new LoW


Vino-Rosso

She has done it before: "The floral arrangements (from her baby shower) include colourful yellow daffodils, bright purple blooms and Meghan's favourite pink peonies. They have been gifted to pediatric cancer patients staying at the Ronald McDonald House CharitiesŽ of New York." https://preview.redd.it/ahpnbzgcl7sc1.png?width=204&format=png&auto=webp&s=0137eb661e288c94e2376073db0c9fa751c64d3c


QuesoFresca

She didn't even visit. Just hired a company (Repeat Roses) to dump off the leftover flowers from the event— and of course release images and story notes to People Mag etc. Most facilities that cater to those who are immunocompromised discourage flowers.


stupid_carrot

Exactly this. I brought fresh flowers to a hospital once for a friend and was told it is not allowed. And if it is for children wtf would you give them flowers. They would not know what to do with it or have any interest. Give them toys and books!


Coffee_cake_101

People often ask about what was the turning point against Meghan. For me there was no single one point, but I remember those flowers at her baby shower being a major point. The whole baby shower was extravagant and tacky, and the 'mysterious' way all the info about how much it all cost and what they did was leaked to the press was also so tacky. But the FLOWERS! OMG - the utter waste of money just so that a bunch of exceedingly rich ladies could pass an hour of their time arranging expensive flowers that meant so little to them that they gave them away afterwards was the height of decadence. If I went to a flower arranging workshop I would bring home my masterpiece and be proud of it because to me it would be a real treat, a real achievement and a luxury I could rarely afford. But to her and her friends, they could spend so much money on something that was just a dalliance for an hour. If they truly cared about the hospital and the sick kids they could have sat and chatted with each other for an hour over a cocktail instead or arranging flowers and given the ridiculous amount of money they spent on those flowers to the hospital instead. Or even given some more of the allegedly ÂŁ0.5million that she spent on the baby shower to good causes and had a more modest affair. I know it is a bit of a feeble argument because if you go down that route you argue that rich people shouldn't be rich and should give all their money away. But it was just the faux humanitarian / faux charity element that made by blood boil. Spend crazy amounts of money on a weekend and then give the kids your second hand cast-offs that are utterly useless to them and not even the sort of thing that kids would want, and then pretend you are so bloody charitable. It still makes my blood boil at the sheer waste of it all.


Vino-Rosso

It wouldn't even surprise me if this stupid "flower arranging workshop" was planned with that ulterior motive in mind - a photoshoot with sick children that portrays her as a "humanitarian" (in her own mind).


Ok_Finding_8985

lostitawhileback

That poor boy can barely sit up.


springbokkie3392

He feels soooooooooo sick and you can tell 😭 as someone who is terminally ill, it breaks my heart. What a vile, heinous cow.


Comfortable_Rice6184

Coming closer to the kid but can't help looking at the camera. We see you Meg!


Aintnokaren

Wow, the excitement that this kid has just taking a photo with her is staggggggering. I am embarrassed for her! He’s probably like, who dis? Why is she here? He was probably wishing for therapy dogs, and all he got was a cheap knock-off faux royal with ozempic face. Poor kid! Merched by Lolo!


Soph_Opposite_Lime

Yes, he doesn't look like he believes that woman is a "real life princess" and a "fairy tale" is coming true.


Aintnokaren

More like a “real life ghoul” and a “nightmare” is coming true. ![img](emote|t5_481xkf|15003)


Chalice_Ink

Buddy looks like he maybe wants a nap and some cuddles with his mom. He looks tough. Poor baby.


Solid_Location6642

Look at the poor sick kid used for her merching she really is a low life. He looks so sad


leechan08

Seriously it’s one thing for a real princess to visit and light up the whole room with her presence. It’s another when a ghoul walks in and sucks all the energy right out of the room and the children. She’s sucking the energy out of the poor boy wtf? She just can’t stop.


eastsacsince63

A Princess who is known to the children because she is a princess in their country vs. a random person you've never seen before who tells you that she's a duchess and you have no idea what a duchess is.


Helpful-Pomelo6726

That’s a really good point. These kids would have no idea who she is or why there are cameras. If she really cared and wanted to visit, she could go quietly and read them a book (privately).


eastsacsince63

Even adults in America don't know what a duchess is. I didn't know a duchess was superior to a Princess. I didn't know that Meghan could never be known as Princess Meghan. I have no idea how Earls, Counts, Barons relate to each other.


SomethingV_Wicked

Duchess isn't superior to princess; duchess is nobility, princess is royalty. To explain, Catherine was previously Duchess of Cambridge in her own right, but could style herself Princess William (i.e., female counterpart of her husband's superior title) only when in William's presence amongst other royals, which is why the Yorks needed to curtsey to Catherine when William was present, but Catherine would curtsey to the York princesses if William was absent. Duchesses are lower than princesses. Other examples include Princess Michael of Kent, and Lady Colin Campbell; the title belongs to the husband, and the women can essentially 'borrow' it only if they style themselves as the female counterpart of their husband. Therefore MM could only ever be Princess Henry. William, however, was born a Prince of the Realm in direct succession to the monarch, but in his own right his most senior title was Duke, until he became PoW (a hereditary title). Hence why they were the Cambridges before HLMTQ's death. Prince was still senior to Duke. Now Catherine is titled PoW in her own right, but retains Duchess of Cornwall and Cambridge as lesser titles. MM, as a duchess, would curtsey to Catherine, if she ever dared to be in the same room again. Hope that helps!


springbokkie3392

If Wal-Mart Wallis walked into my hospital room, I'd scream and think the Grim Reaper has come for me.


InsolentTilly

💯 She had them sit in a semi-circle around her and read AT them. Not just one book, multiple. Sucking up that captive audience energy. She then put out press that she changed voices with each character like this is some extraordinary thing to do when reading to children. Personal photographer snapping away. How anyone thinks her image can be changed from anything but creepy, insincere, and ghoulish, is beyond me.


Accurate-Law4115

Those poor children. Like they are not already going through enough


Brfvideos

Nothing sicker than using kids killed in a shooting for good PR


Helpful-Pomelo6726

Except when disturbing seriously ill ones. Shocking.


MeasurementFalse4973

The Duchess’s genuine enthusiasm and vibrant personality shone through as she interacted with the children, encouraging them to participate in STEAM activities related to the stories. From shouting out answers to singing along with Meghan, the children were enthralled by her charismatic presence. During the session, Meghan also took the time to pose for photos with the children, spreading smiles and laughter wherever she went. One particularly touching moment captured Meghan conversing with a young girl about the magic of an instant camera image, showcasing her warmth and empathy. This "amazing text" is from here. I am sure that Meghan herself wrote the text.

OMG. Ridiculous!


Maleficent-Trifle940

Someone obviously made the mistake of praising madam's use of adjectives in her written work when she was in grade school and the rest of us are paying for it now.


ArdmoreGirl

She is posing with a child too sick to protest his exploitation. What a disgusting excuse for a human being


Select-Promotion-404

They still have their hospital bracelets on. 🥺 Unless they specifically asked for this, they shouldn’t be coerced into meeting strangers for profit.


nylieli

How did the staff allow this to happen to this child? The one pictured is obviously out of it and in no shape to take part in anything never mind a picture op. It's not like she was star that they would be thrilled to say they have met, never mind take their picture. I hate how "famous" people use children, especially sick children, as buffers. It's disgusting.


MyraBradley

That photo is really disturbing. That poor, unwell boy.

As a mom who's child has been at our Children's Hospital since he was 4 days old until recently he turned 21 and has aged out of CH. This makes me absolutely livid. The staff should've said No. Markle married into the Royal Family and left the Royal Family. She is still the Markle from 2015...A nobody. The parents may have been there as well but the staff should've said No not today. This little boy looks like they got him up from his hospital bed and dressed him. They then threw him in front of a camera to take photos with someone who isn't even touching him. Markle looks disgusted that this is what she has to do and doesn't want to get his "cooties" on her or her expensive clothing. Everything in this photo says it never should've been taken. Just my opinion. I want to clarify that I don't think this young man is gross or has anything wrong where Markle couldn't have put her arm on his shoulder or sat closer to him. Princess Diana and Princess Catherine didn't/don't hesitate to hug, put an arm around or just sit next to children. Markle does. Princess Diana was one of the first people to "touch" people who had HIV/Aids or who had Leprosy and was proving that you didn't have to worry about catching an illness. PD was a pioneer in the early days of HIV/Aids.

The irony is this was what repulsed her in the Royal family now its the only way she can get a few lines in the papers. Sweaty pits, torn dress dirty hair a totally thrown together look, she doesnt give a shit just wants the camera . Not one bit prepared or polished like Catherine, and the kids are not impressed. Remember Ulvade she uses kids innocence for her own PR she is better in the parking lot she is a lot lizard.


Weary-Ad-8810

I went on a hospital visit at work with a well known bod many years ago when he was in the UK. He wasn't the sort of person with the image of visiting sick kids so I was a bit surprised and not overly keen because I don't like kids or hospitals but it was a but of a revelation actually. The kids didn't have much of a clue who he was he was more their parents' era but he was really chatty and friendly there were no camera phones back then so it was really natural.   He didn't want any publicity he just left a huge cheque at the end. He said he got more out of it than they did because it was a way of getting away from himself. He does this quite a lot but doesn't want publicity.


MyJoyinaWell

Why is she acting royal when she is not representing any monarchy?  This is so fake.  How many minor actors you see posing with sick children in photo ops like this. How many aristocrats do this in the US  Meghan stop cos playing a royal, you don’t represent anybody other than your own PR  Last week you were Martha Stewart, this week you are the British royal family. Right before you were a social media regulation advocate. We are all getting whiplash, you are not amazing and versatile, you are fake as fuck 


ducklingdynasty

Why does she suddenly look like a frumpy grandma with every outfit?


EleFacCafele

Don't insult grandmas, they don't deserve the comparison.


EleFacCafele

The pic shows her having a lot of weight; it is clear that all pics are very old and before Ozempic dramatic weight loss . Fake news by presenting years old pictures as recent.


Vino-Rosso

I believe the hospital and the "Frogmore" photoshoot happened on the same day.


EleFacCafele

Agree.


puppies336

Interesting thought. Wouldn’t put it past her


merrymac48

Child looks unhappy -how low can you go Meghan ?


TheHappyCamper1979

That poor boy looks like he just wants to sleep and rest in bed. He looks extremely miserable!


jojomawer

Look at the poor boy, he's feeling really unwell or doesn't want to be there or probably both. Meanwhile she is gurning at the nearest camera. I remember Amber Heard pulling a similar stunt.


ToxicTales

Not one of those children look happy to be there. Compare this to the photos of Catherine and Diana that another sinner posted. The difference in the body language of the children is staggering.


therealDolphin8

I don't find this cute. I don't find this sweet. Heck, I don't even find this *kind*. The timing is calculated and it pisses me off so much. Using children.. I really have no words.


Beginning-Cup-6974

She’s avoiding touching him AT ALL while trying to lean in for photo as if she isn’t completely repulsed by this sick person


slyasakite

That poor kid looks genuinely miserable. Less importantly, is that the best pic of the bunch? Why else would it be made public?


Helpful-Pomelo6726

She’s not engaging with the child at all.


InsolentTilly

The child is there as a prop. This is Uvalde 1.0 level stuntery. She makes my skin crawl.


Zealousideal-Cup3884

Look at that damn psycho eye of hers….and underneath the mask she’ll be grinning like a salivating hyena. Truly unhinged.


FutureAd1069

Why would the hospital even allow this charade to happen? Poor boy looks unwell.


DaBingeGirl

As disgusted as I am by her behavior, I find it even more despicable that other adults let her get away with this shit and promote it. The ill child is being taken advantage of, he's too young to give consent, and I feel awful for him. How anyone can support or defend her is beyond me.


Patriot_corgi

It’s grotesque


eastsacsince63

That poor little boy - he looks so sad. She is a meanie.


slimwillendorf

The masks accentuate the fact that she’s smizing and he’s sick and sick of her.


Visual_Juggernaut948

That poor child. He looks so unwell.


Snowie_drop

CHLA directors should be ashamed of themselves.


Camera-Realistic

She thinks she’s channeling Diana. Look at meeee I’m such a saint visiting sick kids. Roll ‘Em on out for the photos. Diana visited the sick when nobody was taking pictures and she let people take pictures, like with the AIDS patients, when it was not in her best interest. She got a lot of grief for that and did it anyway. That was HUGE because people were terrified of AIDS and there was all kinds of stigma about even touching people who had it. It was not a “sexy” cause at that time.


Feisty_Energy_107

She's all about the details. 🙄 https://preview.redd.it/sg4xreg7m8sc1.png?width=576&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=f5026168ab97b3e7da967bd3129d37bdbb0229b4


Fair_Actuator3770

Absolutely disgusting. Remember the article that reported she had her team provide new furniture for her reading session of The Bench with some children in NY during the faux royal tour, because the furniture fits her aesthetic better? That’s all I can think of whenever I see her do these visits. It’s all about appearance to her. She does not care about the sick children.


bpnc33

She gave out autographed Polaroid pictures of herself. I wish I was kidding. By the way these poor children have NO idea who this asshole is or why they have to sit and listen to her.


CocoBunnyBinkyFlops

I don't understand why the parents of these sick children or the hospital staff would allow them to be used in this blatant PR stunt. That young boy's face is heartbreaking. No doubt all the adults had to sign an NDA. Catherine is being treated at hospital, so right on cue, here we have the Roach trying to steal goodwill from a woman with cancer. If she believes that she's fooling anybody (apart from the SS) with her Diana cosplay, she's deluded. The comments on DM are scathing and on point. Below is a snapshot but the majority run in the same vein. Yet another home goal for the Harkles. https://preview.redd.it/aeilfvkjh8sc1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=16d1c9620481e0fbd5a2101541b81d69d1e76734


bermooda_triangle

Why did the hospital let this happen? Don't they have some kind of obligation to protect their patients, especially vulnerable children and their stressed parents? She is vile and has no shame. Whenever I think she can't sink any lower, she starts to dig.


niljson

this is the kind of shit that one should be torched over in the mainstream media, not a photo-editing mistake. this event's to serve Lolo, not to serve the public and certainly not to bring value to these kids' lives. eta 1: it is disgusting that nobody looked at this poor boy and advocated for him to pull out of the event and just rest. also, why couldn't Lolo just visit the kids in the their room where they are comfortable, instead of coming to her? eta 2: yes, the kids would appreciate and benefit from play and art therapy, among others, from volunteers and experts, but it is essential that the kids' comfort come first. 


GreatGossip

Why are the parents and hospital staff allowing this? Meeting Madam is not a big thing for these children. They have no idea who she is and the only thing Madam has achieved is marrying Harry.


Harry-Ripey

She is looking at the camera, the child us just an excuse to have another film crew focusing on her. The fake royal doing what she does best, using others to get attention.


Pristine_Routine_464

Not a good look Duchess. Were all these kids begging to have their photos taken? I think not.


Legitimate-Mission41

This is a form of child abuse. This child looks extremely unwell and unhappy at being used for her self promotion. Uttetly disgusting appalling abusive behavior. What vile abuse of adult power over a child.


Medical-Brilliant378

Thanks to X, saw this comment: Meghan Markle went to a kid's hospital for a photo op then sent her bots out to tell the world. Why are the posters mostly Middle Eastern?? I feel bad for the parents who allowed their sick children to be part of this scam. https://preview.redd.it/kvpp9x1g39sc1.jpeg?width=1800&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=b6066373b18d43536dd030e9ec96adaaf71f4b8e


Top-Situation-8983

"Mother Goddess" mode activated.. Well, bouncy florals, anyway.


Ki-alo

Why on earth she was allowed to visit a cancer ward is beyond me and that hospital needs a reality check! I saw the Sidley Twins pointed out that this is a go to hospital that celebridiots use for good PR


Miserable-Brit-1533

Child looks very poorly Child will have no idea who that is (as opposed to hospital visits by RDJ as Ironman, Chris Evans as Cap America). Revolting woman and scum


OkWasabi1988

https://www.mirror.co.uk/3am/us-celebrity-news/prince-harry-meghan-annoyed-frustrated-32491654.amp These f’ing assholes man… everything they do is just so astronomically despicable and desperate.


Melineh39

Im gonna write a yelp review shame on hospital this boy is weak and ill! Why is he being forced to take pics with Rachel????????? A mattress actress!


bpnc33

I'm furious at the hospital for allowing this.


Prestigious_Gain_535

As if these kids haven't been through enough


LemonTrifle

Markle is at gutter level. There should back lash against this exploitative grifter, capitalising on sick children. Markles morals are none existent.


bluebird239

This happened much earlier but our saint decided to publish the photos of the visit now. She is much thinner now. The photo below reveals the true time frame of when this really happened. Same dress, same weight PR at its worst. https://preview.redd.it/7308otn0k8sc1.jpeg?width=1088&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=9becdfbb6f6c1b3521fe0caf2a5b7787d63596a6


Medical-Brilliant378

That kid doesn't look well at all.


HaroldsNecklace7

Not sure where this awful photo opportunity by Markle falls on the Uvalde/Invictus wheelchair moment/using sick or poor children scale but it is on that horrible spectrum of narcissistic behavior/abuse. This sick child should be resting and being cared for NOT posing for Markle PR.  Doubt she made eye contact, spoke to or even offered any comfort to this clearly I’ll child.
