Uncool Charity Chexit

137 Comments

[Blind Gossip] Remember the days when celebrities supported charities that would actually help people?

Well, this married, high-profile celebrity couple is now rethinking all that!

She wants to reevaluate all their charitable commitments. She believes that some of the causes they said they would support in the past in conjunction with his brother don’t fit their brand. She wants to to ease out of those commitments and focus on charities that are more contemporary and provide better photo ops (e.g. children, animals, environment, minority populations, the arts).

“Their brand”?”Good photo ops”?

Oh, brother!

It’s not like our couple is personally donating princely sums to these charities, so this is really about public appearances and public relations.

Our couple does have several previous commitments already announced. If the wife gets her way, it sounds like they will need to gradually exit from the “uncool” charities.

We’ll call it… Chexit!

    Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, of course! Such a lack of integrity- sort of a continuation of a perspective one might have in high school, ya know before you get your adult brain. She/they are too old for this.

    Meghan Markle and Harry
    I’m not at all surprised. Everything she does (including her marriage) seems to be a calculated move to get herself more attention and publicity. She’s a shameless social climber. Notice how she seems to have no friends or family relationships (except her mom) from her childhood, high school, college, or any time before she began rubbing elbows with high-profile people in Canada? People are just rungs on the social ladder

    I used to think that people were too harsh on Meghan but this is terrible and so hypocrite. I mean, you’re already married to a prince: how much publicity do you want more? Isn’t Harry bothered by this?

    • MinnieMe says

      Harry is pretty simpleminded. His mother dying at a young age really scarred him. Markle is just a gold digger. If she finds something better, Harry will just be left standing alone.

    Prince Harry and Meghan Markle

    Brand: Sussex Royal

    These two should just give up their titles and leave the UK already. Stop spending the taxpayers money when all you care about is the US.

    Prince Harry and Meghan Markle.

    Evidently their “brand” is being the most out of touch, sanctimonious, holier-than-thou royal couple to ever grace us with their presence….and to think, I genuinely liked Harry before he married her. He seemed so genuine prior to getting together with her. Sad.

  22. aaaHils says

    The tedious Duke and Duchess of Excess. Do all of us British taxpayers a favour and disappear off to Hollywood with all your virtue signalling hypocritical friends. Many of us do not like you, do not want to fund you and have no respect for you.

    • Alexis_Rose says

      We don’t want them here, either. I thought they were supposed to be getting shipped to Africa?

  23. ghostrider44 says

    Harry & Megan,
    He looked like an idiot today preaching about the environment and then saying he flies a private jet for safety of his family. The hypocrisy…. I used to like Harry, and she is well going the fergie route.
    Their brand is fake hypocrites.

  27. Ramblingirl says

    Harry and Meghan.

    Their “brand” will be toast if he doesn’t get a grip on her ambitions. They have gone from a couple with the world as their oyster to one bordering on being a liability.

    Prince Harry and Meghan Markle

    Their brand should be representing the people of the UK. The sooner The Duchess figures this out, the easier things will get for her. But I don’t see that happening any time soon. Prince William and Kate Middleton are letting her bury herself at this point.

  31. PBCups says

    It sounds to me as though people are just * that she wants to invest in new ideas, instead of maintaining the same. Isn’t this within her and Harry’s power?

    This is Meghan Markle.

    • fiddlesticks says

      No one could deny that a bit of a shakeup was inevitable, but her actions are causing unprecedented levels of hatred of the royal family. She’s single-handedly destroying public perceptions of a family who are funded by that same public. I’m sure the people of Wales and Scotland, historical haters of the monarchy, are rejoicing at her actions.

  32. pharmchick says

    Def Megan and Harry.

    Not sure what their brand is, but I am not sure why shes so hell bent on changing up everything monarchy related and that too so soon. If anything she should try to play a long game and may be more successful in not getting people to dislike her.

    • amagod121 says

      She is hell bent on destroying the monarchy because to her it represents colonialism and power against her people. She wants to take it down and those who represent it, and stamp out the regular people who support it and are not of her own people. If you doubt me, put all of her actions together thus far and also see who she advocates for, nonstop.

    • pharmchick says

      I am NO fan of the monarchy trust me- they colonized my people for hundreds of years and caused the kind of destruction that one couldnt repair decades after they became independent. That said, if I was her id like to play a longer game and get my work done without increasingly causing people to dislike her.
      And for the record, I personally dont have anything against her, but I never liked her in Suits so as such, didnt care for her.

  35. hannahhkate says

    I LIVE for */Harry posts!!

    “Their” brand is “I was never going to make it as an A-list celeb but I conned a prince into marrying me and now I get to put on airs like I’m the most famous woman in the world…NO PICTURES AND PLEASE RESPECT MY, I MEAN OUR, PRIVACY.”

    She’s a disaster, darling.

    Meghan and Harry

    Newsflash… Most celebs do “charity” work for the photo ops. Show up for 30 minutes, feed the homeless, get photos, and bounce! Celebs doing actual charity work do so quietly.

  46. keilobyte says

    Obviously Prince Harry and Megan.

    Their brand (more like her brand): to be the American Lady Di, the next beloved People’s Princess. Both in marriage and no doubt post-divorce when that happens.

  65. EmilyLou says

    Damn, Me-again!!!
    I really wanted to like her when she first arrived on the scene, but she has made that increasingly difficult. What is Harry thinking??? Diana would be appalled.

  74. omgimbackagain says

    Meghan and Harry

    “Uncool” charities omg — what does that even mean?
    I like them, or at least I’m really trying to keep liking them, so I’ll leave it to others to come up with a response to the question about their brand.

  77. KCeagle says

    Prince Harry and Meghan

    Their brand is NEW-NOW-NEXT
    I like Meghan but she needs to shut up and quit making waves. She’s a reflection upon America, and we don’t need a wicked witch in the palace, but a demure princess. However.. she could use her position to bring awareness to those overlooked and forgotten.

  82. rayodeplata says

    Mr. and Mrs. Meghan Markle

    Their brand is trying to trick people into thinking they’re “one of us” “so relatable” “down to Earth” while living the privileged life

  87. Baileygirl says

    Harry and Meghan. Chexit rhymes with Brexit-quite clever!
    Their brand? Mud as far as the British people are concerned. 1066 with William the Conqueror until now and all will be lost by the antics of a D-list actress and her nit wit husband.

  88. ILUVCA4evr says

    Couple: The Self-Serving Sussex’s. Jesus, send them to Africa already !

    [Optional] What is “their brand”? Me, Me, Me, Me, Me.

    *I cannot believe they are getting away with all this. Sooner or later the Queen or Prince Charles is going to put their foot down. And hopefully right into Me-again and Dum Dum Harry’s backsides!!!!!!

  99. charlene2345 says

    Markle, and Harry. Those two are really a piece of work, and I wish they’d stop pontificating.

    I seriously wonder if this whole “brand building” thing and need for better photo ops is because they know that their show is about to be canceled- maybe the Queen plans to cut them off or something.
