Meghan Markle meltdown over Prince Harry's inappropriate hug with young singer: "Lunged at woman!”

So what do you do when your marriage is in such a good place and you're just blissfully happy?Inappropriately, this is if you're Prince Harry, inappropriately lunge for a hug with another woman who has a boyfriend and was completely shocked by this right next to your said wife who I presume was looking away at that moment.Yes, That's Sydney Christmas.I'm going to be revealing exactly what she said about that shocking moment with Harry imminently, but this whole appearance alongside David Foster and Catherine McPhee in Canada for their charity gala was not surprisingly a complete mess for Prince Harry and Meghan Markle.Meghan, look at this.She just can't help directing traffic on a red carpet, can she?

When will she learn?She just needs to go and stand and smile and avoid this awkwardness in front of banks of cameras.And I have to be honest, like, the imagery that Megan chose to put out, I don't think she realises that we just totally see through her act now, like this, with the sexy bagpipe troop.

This is great.So where am I?Pipes and drums.Pipes and drums.Just to be clear.

As Nancy Sidley reminded us, before this moment even happened, Megan had to stop walking, tell her assistant to pull out her phone and start recording.That's why Harry is so far ahead of her.Imagine living your life having to set up and record every moment just to feel validated, including your engagement.Then this was the Instagram story she posted during the auction.I think Harry's awkward smile really said it all, it's like he's looking very unhappy, look at that, and then he realises, oh gosh, she is recording me again, I better smile.As according to Taz put it, how tacky, not bidding for the gala, not helping towards fundraising, but filming your place settings for social media content.

I swear she's mentally stuck at the age of 12, just like Harry.And I mean, I felt this, look at this, look at this when she was awkwardly dancing and actually hollering during an Adam Levine performance, just making sure everyone's actually watching her.no one was watching her during the moment that Harry lunged at Sydney Christmas.Now this is the Britain's Got Talent winner who has spoken about what went down in a brand new interview with Ellie Hinman of the Sun's Bizarre column.She writes, Prince Harry has given his royal seal of approval to 2024 Britain's Got Talent winner Sydney Christmas.He told Sid, quote, he felt every word in the back of his throat after she performed Tomorrow from Anne and Frank Sinatra's My Way in front of him at David Foster's Charity Gala in Canada over the weekend.

Both tracks have poignant lyrics about overcoming difficulties and being beaten down, which is rather apt for Harry, who has enjoyed setback after setback recently.Speaking from Canada, Sid told me, quote, When I was on stage, I joked about meeting his dad before adding, sorry he couldn't make it, he sent me instead.Oh my god, I say such silly things when I'm nervous.But Harry started laughing.Here's where it gets weird.When I got down off stage, he just came forward and gave me a big cuddle.

And he went, Sydney, I felt every word.I really felt that in the back of my throat.Revealing how the fifth in line to the throne ditched royal protocol, Sydney continued, He just went in for the hug.And I was like, why not?I mean, by all accounts, this woman is very happy with a boyfriend.But as Nancy Sidley puts it, imagine this being your pinch me moment.

And there was lots of other cringe moments.connected to this event, including the copying of William and Catherine's fashion.As The Veil Between Us pointed out, well, well, well, it appears that Zarkle isn't the only one cosplaying a member of the royal family.Zarkle wore a cape dress like Princess Catherine, and Harry wore a velvet jacket like Prince William.How pathetic are these two?And Brittany of the Royal News Network had this take.

Fresh Harry and Meghan updates every single day.Yes, the ones the Montecito Mafia and MSM don't want out there.Subscribe to Outspoken for daily royal coverage.It's completely free.Meghan's incessant need to vibe is very main character syndrome and probably a bit embarrassing after a while.Britney, so great to have you here.

Hope you had an amazing weekend.I mean, yes, it is embarrassing.Completely agree.Maybe not as embarrassing as your husband.who's meant to be the dignified prince, lunging as a female singer ten years his junior, going in for a hug, breaking royal protocol after saying that he felt her performance at the back of his throat.I mean, look, Brittany, at the very least, we can say that is weirdly inappropriate for someone who claims to be a member of the British royal family.

It's very inappropriate.casual, and certainly not something you would see most royals do.

what this post -royal life means, because they're desperately trying to be royal.Meghan even went out of her way to wear a Canadian designer for her gown.And they're very much trying to, again, he's trying to do that buddy -buddy thing with the bagpipers.They're just very much trying to emulate this life that they left.And everything looks increasingly strained because they look ridiculous.They're acting ridiculous.

They left.They chose to leave.And there are perfectly legitimate ways for them to have somewhat of a public profile, but not constantly.looking like they're trying to recreate what they lost.But they can't do it.Harry, I think, is floundering.

I think he is completely and utterly lost, doesn't know what to do, hoping maybe working things out with his dad might lead him back into a royal role and a royal life.He probably really didn't want to give up in the first place, but Meghan convinced him to do it, and he did it.And now he just doesn't know what to do.as it turns out, he doesn't know actually how to live and work in the real world.And if you leave royal life, in some ways, you are leaving a very protected bubble.And now that they're outside it, Harry's like, Oh, I guess that protective bubble wasn't so bad.

After all, and Harry just looks evermore like a complete and utter joke.And basically anything he does.

And Brittany, I mean, All of the visuals around this were pretty cringe.But I think for me, I mean, look at Harry there.You can just say, oh God, I'm going to have to be happy again.But this was the worst, Brittany.It's like, when do you learn?You don't have to arrange everyone on the red carpet in front of the banks of cameras and then do that ludicrous fake laugh when we have just seen the real you moments earlier.

I mean, it's so annoying to see that laugh because, like, I think you're right.I think she genuinely thinks we don't see through it at this point.But there is no more fake person in the world than Meghan Markle.She looks incredibly fake and contrived.And the more she tries to emulate warmth, the less you believe.And of course, David Foster has been in the entertainment industry for years.

I'm sure he knows how to stand on a red carpet.Meghan Markle doesn't need to help him.Catherine McPhee.She got quite famous through American Idol and beyond that, and she definitely does not need Meghan Markle's help because Catherine has actual talent and Megan has none.And so Harry and Megan's and well, Megan in particular, her incessantneed to kind of try to manage things is just insane to me.

Yeah, it was incredibly awkward.And then what was with the whole bagpiping thing?I mean, the way that's gone down over here, Brittany, is that if Harry really loves bagpipes that much, well, shouldn't he be at Balmoral anyway, where he could be hearing them every morning?But I mean, What was Megan doing sort of describing them as sexy?To me, it felt over the top.It was like, oh gosh, here is something connected to the United Kingdom.

We're going to have to make a performance of it.It didn't feel natural to me.

It did not at all, Dan.And of course, Nancy is right as well.Like somebody had to take the time to stop the movement to get a camera out to film it.And I don't think Megan would have walked through there and acknowledged them at all, except for the fact that she desperately wanted something for the gram.And so she she had to do this performance and she she's overacting as she always does.This is a reason why she was just a middling success in the entertainment industry.

She's profoundly overacting.It comes across as incredibly fake and then I'm sure there was a moment where she starts off in front of the camera and then Harry kind of leads her through a door and then he stands there and he's so tall he completely blocks the camera's view of her and I'm sure she was so incredibly angry that he was blocking her shot because this was supposed to be all about her.It's all about this crazy, weird performance.They have something that represents the UK.And so they have to highlight it because they have to remind us, you know, 12 times a day.Oh, we're royal.

We're royal.And all it does as well as remind us is that the only reason you're there is because you're royal.The only reason they got the invitation is that David Foster and Catherine knew that they invited Harry and Meghan.They would get more headlines and that's what they wanted.And that'swhat they got.

And that's all they cared about.Harry and Meghan have nothing to offer except for that royal piece.And they exploit it quite a bit, but it has a limited bandwidth.And they're just there for kind of the shock value.They're not really there because anybody actually wants them there.And the performance with the bagpipers is just the worst example of that.

And she just kept charging ahead, didn't she?She was charging ahead.I guess the problem is, Brittany, do you know what she can't be posting on the gram?The hubby lunging at Sydney Christmas.There was no Sydney Christmas reference whatsoever on Meghan Markle's Instagram.And that doesn't surprise me because it was highly inappropriate.

I thought of Prince Harry.Britney, look, disastrous news out of the box office.I predicted this.Always thought Cookie Queens was going to be a total disaster.So I was a bit of a geek yesterday.I love looking at like the box office receipts that come in on a big weekend of movies and obviously the last couple of weekends Britney, Spider -Man and The Odyssey have been breaking records after records in America in particular but also around the world.

Now of course Cookie Queens is on a different level to that, like I'm not for one second saying it should be getting Odyssey or Spider -Man numbers but Britney is getting appalling numbers even for a documentary like this.So let me just take you through it okay.So the film opened August the 7th 2026 in a moderate limited release of 446 theatres.So it's opening weekend, that's Friday to Sunday.The domestic gross, this is US only, was $327 ,797.And Box Office Mojo has noted as estimated that on Friday it took between $125 ,000

$124 ,000, Saturday $113 ,000, had dropped on Sunday to $91 ,000.But Brittany, what I think is the particularly disastrous figure is when you go to the per theatre average.And per theatre, it was taking between $700 and $735.And by any metric, Brittany, no matter what type of movie you're talking about, that is a flop.Okay?That is a flop that just can't go on.

It won't stay.Theatres won't keep your movie.In the theatre, when you're only taking in $700 a day, it's just not worth it for them to keep it on screens.Saber alone had also done what I was doing, looking at these figures and pointed out, ouch.Cookie Queens is in 400 plus theatres domestically and literally made the same amount of two movies that have been out for just over a month, plus that have literally close to the amount of theatres it is in.Mind you, the other two movies have already made millions since opening, unless they have strong Saturday and Sunday numbers.

Not even sure it was worth putting this out.I can see why Netflix passed on it.And of course, Brittany, it didn't then have the strong numbers.The numbers actually got weaker on Saturday and Sunday.

They certainly did, Dan.I actually did get to see the movie on Thursday.They had Thursday previews for this as well.Oh my God, did you?Tell me everything.Yes.

So I was in the theater with only two other people.One of the smallest theaters.

Who were the people in there, Brittany?Who were the people in there?Who were they?Were they like Sussex squaddies or what age?

Might have been.Might have been.A woman came in and then there was a man in there earlier and the kind of single, lone man in the movie about Girl Scouts kind of creeped me out a little bit.I'm not going to lie.

Sound like Sussex squaddies to me.So they weren't little girls with their mums?No.Weird.

No, definitely not.It wasa Thursday afternoon.Definitely somebody with kids could have been there when when I was there.But it was a pretty I would argue it was cute, but sort of dull.It wasn't a strong, compelling story.

It meandered a bit.Some of the storylines I think were not so great.Honestly, I came across after the movie, liking the Girl Scouts as an organization less because I thought the cooking selling felt exploitative of the girls.And so I'm like, I don't think I like the organization anymore or definitely less than I did when I came in.But I'm not surprised by these numbers, Dan.The movie wasn't compelling.

Meghan Markle is actually a drag on the film in terms of that.When it comes to her being so attached to the promotion, they really thought this would help get the film in front of more eyes.But the reality is the Girl Scouts is sort of a dying brand.I don't think people are as invested in the cookies as they were even 10, 15, especially like 20 years ago.So this movie I think came a little bit too late.I don't think it worked particularly well.

Some parts of it came across as insanely contrived to me, felt like some of the storylines set up were fake.And that's not a surprise for Megan.But it definitely follows a track record of more most of their productions being boring.And especially given how many producers are attached to this film.I mean, given like it may just a little over $300 ,000, I don't think anybody is coming out of this movie with any money at this point.You know, maybe a couple thousand dollars or something when you give when you factor in promotion and the theaters and they're definitely going to lose theater spots next week.

I wouldn't be surprised if it slashed in half and they go from 400 theaters to 200 theaters because nobody is watching this film.And Meghan Markle certainly did not help.I understand why Netflix passed.It just wasn't very good.I don't think the director is very good at telling stories, and Harry and Meghan definitely aren't, and this is just me.example in a long line of examples of Meghan Markle's horrible ability as a creative and producer.

Yeah, indeed.I mean, the whole promotional campaign was super bad, too.There's just one thing I wanted to pick out first, Brittany, because to me, this picks into her lying.I'm just going to be frank about it.A couple of examples.So first, this is her now on her tonal dressing, Brittany.

But first, if you've tried to quit vaping or smoking and keep heading up back where you started, you need to hear about fume.And here's the reframe.OK, this is important.You are not the problem.how you're trying to quit is.Nicotine pouches, patches and gum deal with the chemical side.

Cold turkey leaves you white nut clean on willpower alone.The real issue is that vaping isn't just about nicotine, it's a habit.I've seen this up close, I will admit it, because my fiancé has been working to quit vaping and the hardest part hasn't been willpower, it's those automatic moments where the hand reaches for something without even thinking.That's why Fume works.It's a flavoured air device that gives your hands, mouth and brain something better to reach for when cravings hit.No nicotine, no vapour, no batteries.

Fume isn't a vape, it's designed to distract you from craving when willpower isn't enough.It feels like a real object though not a gadget so it's fidget satisfying and the mint cores give a nice throat hit not as strong as a vape which is exactly the point there are over 10 interchangeable flavors from classic peppermint crisp mint to spearmint ice maple pepper and peach blush over a million people have already used fume to quit differently so grab a journey pack and get a free gift with purchase usingmy code OUTSPOKEN.Addiction is really good at saying later.Don't let it.Head to tryfume .

Which Girl Scout cookie best describes you personally?Oh, Trefoil.It's classic and classic.I can see Trefoil for you.Classic.It's sweet.

Also, it's all the same color.Like tonal dressing.It's the worst answer in the world.

Okay.I mean, has she just forgotten, Brittany?Has she just forgotten that like the whole thing when she left the British royal family was they were so horrible because they forced me to dress in muted tones, which is tonal dressing.They didn't allow me to wear bright colors.And I know that feels like a lie that we have proven is just that so many times before, but it's still quite interesting, isn't it?

I mean, she can't help but lie.This is Megan constantly spinning narratives.I mean, let's be honest.She has a handful of pictures from her days in the Girl Scout.I don't think she was there more than a year or two.And she was like, well, I'll sign on to a whole production just based on that, which is a horrible creative decision by the way.

And so Megan just can't help but try to spin narratives.She embellishes constantly.She lies.And again, she has this weird thing where she doesn't think we catch on to it.I mean, there's the Sussex squad and they're delusional over in the corner and they believe whatever she says.And that might be great.

But Megan's problem is, is that she has a small minor group of people who adore her and think she walks on water.And then the rest of the public is like, you're lying.You're not being real here.And she just can't help herself.She has zero self -awareness.And I think this whole promotional campaign for Cookie Queens is just an absolute example of that.

She was horrible on this promotional trail.Everything had to do with her.Nothing had to do with this film or these girls or their achievements and their accomplishments.It had to be all about Megan.And I think that definitely got a handful, a very small group of people in the seats, but also meant a lot of people did not go to the film just because of her presence and her, she wasn't in the film at all, but just because of her presence in the promotion and her attachment to the film.

Britney, she's even changed, by the way, which type of cookie she likes best over the course of the promotional campaign.Look at this.

I'm a Thin Mints.It's such a classic, but also as a Girl Scout, it was the one that always sold the fastest.I think you remember it for that reason too.

Are you supposed to put them in the freezer?

I don't know if you're supposed to, but it's certainly a nice plus.

I'm a real fan of the lemonades, but I like the shortbreads.I really like the truffloils too.I like to dip them in jam.

Oh, I've never heard someone do that.Or sandwich them together.

But as Princess Carparkle pointed out, one thing you can count on with Meghan Markle is her inconsistency.Of course, her favourite change to a flavour she can push with her fruit too.So predictable.And it was, wasn't it, Rooney?

It really was, Dan.I think things for as ever are getting quite bad.Every time I open Instagram at this point, I'm getting an as ever ad shoved in my face incessantly.I think she is spending a lot of money now on Instagram promotions because this brand isn't doing well.And so she has this film.And the only reason she's there is, again, she was a Girl Scout for a hot second 40 years ago.

And she saw this opportunity to go, hey, yes, everybody loves them.And I like them too.But maybe I can sell my jam.And the funny thing is, with that video, is that they create.a cookie that has jam in it.And it's not made from Meghan Markle's spread.

So I feel like it's almost insult to injury that they I chose a different brand to go with, one that's readily accessible in grocery stores to actually create this cookie with, with these young girls.And they don't use any Meghan Markle's products, but she's trying desperately to try to shove her products in there, because Meghan has no idea how to sell food products.And it's getting bad.

And it's like, honestly, just try and sell this film, okay?Because the thing you need right now, sorry, the last thing you need right now is a box office disaster.But Brittany, What is so interesting is like you can put Meghan Markle around adorable young Girl Scouts and it doesn't make her adorable on any level and actually I took the little tonal colors thing out from this because I wanted to discuss that separately but I do want you to look at this whole promotion with the kids because to me it's quite eye -opening in that they think oh we'll surround her with the kids it will make her super cute.For me it didn't work.Watch this.

Life is full of surprises.

Hi, Megan.What's your favorite Girl Scout cookie?

I love shortbread cookies.I mean, everyone loves Thin Mints, but I love thumbprint cookies, so shortbread is good, and I dip them in jam.

When we were making this film, I got to travel and taste a lot of cookies over many, many weeks.So don't sleep on the lemons.It's the same technique to produce a lemon.What would you call yourself as a little girl now?

That life is full of surprises.I mean, it always goes back to your teachers, I think.I had a great teacher, Miss Linda.I looked up to her so much.She was my math teacher, and I'm not good at math.Samoa's, I would say the best.

pretty big fan favorite for my kids.

Is it OK to have dessert before dinner?

Great question.My kids would love that question, too.I think in summertime, the rules become a little bit more flexible.As long as you're having a nice, balanced meal, dessert can come when you like it.But I would typically prefer it.

What makes you feel bright?

My daughter.Every day when I feel a little bit like, oh gosh, can I do this?I go, Lily would do it.

I feel the same way about my kids, even though they're bigger now.What is a skill every young girl should learn?

Really early on, one of the most important skills you can learn is to trust your gut.If it doesn't feel right, it's probably not right.What's your superpower, he said.I mean, I was thinking it's being a mom.All moms, I feel like we have superpowers because we juggle it all and, I don't know, enjoy it all with grace and grit at the same time.

Which Girl Scout cookie best describes your personality?Oh, truffle oil.Classic and yeah.Classic?I can see trip oil for you.

It's like classic, it's sweet, and also it's all the same color and like tonal dressing.It's the worst answer in the world.How do these girl scouts inspire you?These girls are so multidimensional and honest.Also, just behind the scenes and getting to know them through this process, how they've all become close with each other and support each other.

It was incredible to bear witness to that, like, in real time and then also sharing it, like, watching them share that when they watch Cookie Queens with an audience and feel the love and the connection that they're creating by their bravery to share the story, so.It's like we're our own little troop.Definitely.

I mean, Brittany, look, there's a few things you could pick out there.One thing that I thought, and this reminded me of the MasterChef Australia thing, genuinely, she didn't know what her kid's favourite cookie was.Did you notice that?She turned to the director and she's like, oh, yeah, that's a fan favourite.Well, no, it's not a fan favourite.we're not asking what a fan favorite is, just what are your kids' favorite cookies?

Couldn't answer.I just thought that was quite interesting.

It definitely was, Dan.And when you watch, I think other interviews too, she's kind of like sidestepped her kids' potential association with the Girl Scouts.She hasn't really been committal about it.She hasn't said they watched the film, which I think if you're going to make this movie, especially for young girls, I think the idea is, does your daughter like it?Because she might be kind of your test audience.If she enjoys it, then that might give you a gauge of whether or not this is a good film or not, if somebody as young as Lily could watch it and somewhat enjoy it.

I don't think Megan involved her kids at all in this.I don't think they have any Girl Scout cookies at home.Remember, this is a woman who went to a meeting about this film and made her own cookies.She didn't actually, like, enjoy the Girl Scout cookies.She made her own.And I think that's so Megan.

She's so fake here.You know, all she cares about, she had to mention her thumbprint cookies because she made those for Drew Barrymore.She made those on her show.She made them on Instagram.She has no other cookie, apparently, she makes or enjoys except for her own little one creation thing.And so Megan was just horrible on this promotional tour.

I think she was horrible at answering those questions.Didn't really give those kids anything of note and she definitely dominated that entire conversation and that would have been much better served to direct to the young girls in this film because they were the ones who were supposed to sell it.Putting it in the hands of Megan Markle is a horrible, terrible, no good, very bad idea.
