- When Meghan Markle held on to the flowers given to her by a guest when visiting Windsor Castle with her husband, Prince Harry as well as Prince William and Princess Catherine, the internet went crazy. Some claim she bullied the aide, others saw grace and kindness in her actions; but what does her body language indicate? In this video I will breakdown her body language and REVEAL what she ACTUALLY SAID to the aide in order to narrow down what her intentions may have been.

Hey everyone!
First and foremost I would like to say how impressed and grateful I am at the vibe in the comments. The respectful disagreements, the reevaluations based on new information, it’s such a healthy atmosphere and I really appreciate it. Of course everyone has a different opinion but the way it’s being debated here: I love it!
Second, there are two truths that I often remind myself of. #1) Gandhi was accused of being abusive towards his wife #2) when he was younger, Hitler was nominated for a Nobel Peace Prize. (Read that again… PEACE!).
The reason I think of this a lot is because if arguably the worst human being who ever walked this planet was deemed worthy of an extremely prestigious award for making the world a better place and if one of the historical figures who spread the most messages about peace was accused of horrible behavior towards his wife then nothing is ever 100%. Pure evil has moments where they’re not being the absolute worst and people with good intentions can behave like absolute monsters.
Nobody is always awful and nobody is always a saint. I remind myself of this before every analysis. I can see a lot of you very much dislike Meghan, as I said in the video, you’re entitled to that and I can certainly see why you have landed there. But even if Meghan was the worst human being alive, I like to remind myself that not every action she takes at every moment of every day is motivated by evil, nobody is always evil.
I think this approach can allow preconceived opinions to move out of the way. It doesn’t mean we have to love Meghan, it simply means we don’t filter our opinion of THIS moment through THOSE lens. We can baseline behaviors and habits but we don’t need to baseline character because as nuanced as behavior is; I think character is about a million times more nuanced.
Thanks for watching ❤️
@@19590 agreed. The point is some media has used this clip to paint her as a monster. But if someone without her reputation did the exact same thing, I really don’t think it would be a big deal. Not saying she’s a saint or that this is a saintly moment. It’s just not the epitome of evil. ⚖️
I find it fascinating to hear the unbiased, raw observation from you, then jump to the comments to read all of the discussions. The community on this channel is such a safe place full of people with a real passion for psychology and behavioral analysis. Thank you for this amazing platform!!
@@v-crazy9314 thank YOU for being here! 🤗
@@TheBehavioralArts I used to follow someone else expertise for my everyday behavior analysis but once i realized that it became opinionated and toxic, i left. I needed someone's objective analysis to body language and not a mind reader. Thank you for this safe space you've created.
I very much agree with you here. I'm not a fan of Meghan's, but I was impressed by her seemingly genuine interaction with the mourners. And it was actually nice to see that she felt comfortable enough to go over to the other side of mourners by herself to chat with them. I think she could have been a good princess and added value to the royal family had she wanted to.
Her comment “ we’re only one plane crash away from the throne” Was enough for me to explain all I need to know about that woman.
It’s funny that her pointing out a literal fact is offensive to you. At least she didn’t roll her eyes and check her nails several times during the literal funeral services like Camilla did.
When did she say that? 😮
@@IslandLife273 Actually she never said that!
Meghan haters love to make this up to sell their narrative about her.
@@IslandLife273 yeah that’s crazy!
She would probably say it was just a joke, maybe dark sense of humour because she would never be Queen even in the event of a plane crash because William has two children and Charles is now King and he and William never travel together, Williams children are his heirs and they never travel in the same plane anyway
I felt that the Royal aide felt uncomfortable approaching her to take the flowers but then the staff are wary of her after her accusations.
Plus there IS a Royal Protocol about not correcting a Royal in company. I betcha Car Parkle knows THAT!
She has a reputation for going off on people easily .She looks upset here. No wonder the aide didn't want to press the issue
Harry grieving to the extent he couldn't even go to visit his grandmother despite being asked by her to visit a few times shortly before she died. Despicable.
Yes I agree, plus recording family's conversations and even private talks before, during the queen's funeral all for profit for Netflix money. So low ,so disgusting.
Exactly, The Queen asked him to come and see her 3 days before she died and he said no because of alledged security concerns 🙄
He's an absolute jerk 🤬
The flower person was a known *PLANT* as we know now!
She knew the protocol and knew exactly what she was doing 🤨
No 7 😊
Yes he was close to his Grandmother & she knew she was going to die and he rejected all offers! Just terrible
The fake smile came after a gesture of anger. She clearly was not happy to be interrupted, but immediately changed her expression, only because she knew she was being filmed. That smile was not a genuine polite smile; it was FORCED "polite" smile.
And to go against what they are supposed to seems defiant against the Queen to control and feel like she could be chosen Queen.
I think initially she was annoyed, then she realized the cameras were on her. I think it was to make sure she got attention placing the flowers down. This is not the first time she has done a walkabout, so she is well aware of the procedure.
And she bad handed over the previous flowers with no issues so why try to hold these ones.
That is exactly what happened.
@@ceejayretired
She wanted it captured for Netflix.
This!
You know that she was informed about protocol. She just chooses to ignore because she thinks her way is best. There is a reason for this protocol.
I’m from the UK and I don’t think many people realise that the person who wanted to take the flowers was a Royal Aide, at that time it’s their job to take the flowers for security reasons. Anything could be hidden in the flowers/gifts. H&M are well aware of this.
Exactly, the crowd knew the aids would lay the flowers for the Queen.
Yes, so true.
I’m not from the UK and I figured that out!
But she's not royal. She's not practiced this before and she's not British. We have a whole different way of looking at things
@@mellie4174 Nonsense, she's been on at least 70 royal engagements. Despite her denial, she would have been schooled on royal protocol AND security, wether she's British or not!
Why does she curtsey? To an aide? But she didn't know how to do it to the Queen? She cray cray.
She was asked by the giver of the flowers to put them on the pile herself so that’s what she said she would do for the giver!
It’s habit. I bow everyone and then and someone literally asked if I spent time in Asia. You’re cray cray.
@nicolem5626 as far as we know, she is from USA and 43%Nigerian. No Asian. Yet.
@@esterbengoa6077 you kinda missed the point..
Humble. I would never put humble and Meghan together 😮
She wants to control and she doesn’t like someone to tell her what to do !
Oh, poor Meghan. You are way too kind. She was being rude and obnoxious (and from many accounts, intoxicated), and she wanted the attention on herself. She hated HMTQ and dispected her at any opportunity. She should not have even been there.
Goodness knows, the smug smile at HMTQ’s coffin indicated ‘WINNER’!😆
I truly believe Harry and his wife hope to stress King Charles to an early grave too. Ironically, CHARLES had held onto the supposed $850 BILLION the late Queen had, so her actual children have not received even ONE PENNY from that inheritance.
@@judywright4241I was horrified when Meghan was at our late Queen's funeral ... She brought a cloud of uneasiness to wherever she was present. And I do believe she actually thought (from the beginning of dating Harry) she was expecting Harry to inherit hundreds of millions. Very sad and wicked
Narcs hate anyone who can see who they really are and what their true intentions are...
@@judywright4241 Money is passed from Monarch to Monarch and is not left to others, it's up to the new King whether he gives anything to anyone.
So how do you know she hated HMTQ? Did she tell you? Or did you read that in the soap opera magazine ? Or did she say I hate HMTQ? If she did then I completely missed that and so did every newspaper in the world. And how do you know she was intoxicated? Where you there? Intoxicated indeed , lmaoff 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
She’s irritated and dismissing him. She gave a sneer kind of look at him.
Definitely photo op. She repeatedly demonstrated that she wouldn't follow royal protocol.
A week earlier they were invited to see the queen but couldn't be bothered. This whole walk about was nauseating. They treated the queen with such disrespect.
What I think you are missing is the initial snap she had towards the aid. I can understand all her reasons to keep the flowers, the nice intentions etc, however if you really are a nice person you do not snap in such an aggressive way towards someone you know is only doing his job and that there is a protocollo to follow. This is why I think her masks slipped off there
But consider how awkward that walkabout was with Will and Kate. That had to put her on edge. I can relate because when I am in a tense situation and my kids keep calling me, I get close to snapping. But I control it because its not their fault. Perhaps this was a similar response.
@@josalynlawson2423 i agree, however my point is more about the fact that she wants to be seen as flawless, yet genuine. but if you try to justify your reactions in a false way and just talk bad about others it doesn't work. after the clip was hired, she could have simply replied " yes, you are right, it didn't come across well. with all tension etc, you know..I feel sorry that i snapped and i came across that way. it was not my intention" but yet it is everybody's else fault
I agree. I think her true nature was revealed in the snap then she remembered she's supposed to be nice.
@@mdf8550the absolute truth is none of us know Meghan on a personal level to know her true nature!!Yes Meghan & Harry have given an interview & the Netflix documentary have u ever considered that maybe just maybe that is their truth I was taught if u don’t hear or see anything urself it’s hearsay & that’s the truth!! There’s always two sides to every story & I don’t believe anything a tabloid says either on social media or newspapers are the truth they simply want as many clicks & sells as possible we live in a world of Chinese whiskers & it’s out of control & the hate Meghan has received is staggering I couldn’t imagine going thru this or any of my family & none of it was true or blown out of proportion could u imagine this urself or any of ur family members? In another post on her someone posted that it was a pity Meghan wasn’t in a plane crash im not asking anyone to like her but this woman has two children she’s a daughter a wife an aunt & a friend to wish taking two babies away from their mother in anyone’s book us vile I’m not a huge massive fan but I definitely stand for what’s right & none of this is right
I've paused the video as he suggested and I stick with my initial thoughts she does not like being told what to do but more than that her perceived nerves are, as many who were there testified, because she stunk of booze and was either drunk or hung-over. This would make her movements irrational and a little disorientated
My initial impression, and that of 5 other people, is that she thought the flowers were for her.
But now i think that she knew the protocol, had an immediate answer that even tho she knew the protocol wanted to be shown (and photographed) with an armload of flowers, and then photographed laying the flowers down, as tho the flowers were from her, personally. Meghan is all about me. Look at her reaction when the audience was applauding the military band. She and Harry both thought the applause was for them.
I agree 100%. She's a real threat to William, Catherine and 3 kids, King Charles and Queen Camilla.
I don't think Harry thought that but I can understand why he might have been silent on the real reason for the applause because according to Celt Views Meghan often behaves like a spoilt brat toddler when off camera and therefore most likely welcomed he being deluded over this as it most likely gave him some much needed respite from her spoilt brattishness!
Meg did not want to be part of the R F . She wanted it to be me me me.
She'd like the photo of arms of flowers.....controlling..the situation for self ..advertising....She's despicable...
Exactly! To her, the optics are everything, even if the reality is false .
She was hanging on to the flowers because she thought she was going to get a solo opportunity to walk to place the flowers to put the spotlight on herself.
She is an actress and she knows how to work the crowd, she does not do anything without a reason, she also knew the camera's were on her
EXACTLY
That woman can be anything but humble
Who care about flowers ,, it is important what she said to the security guy ,,
So ? F.... you or kiss my ass ?
🎯
She's eating humble pie now! Check out the Golden Globes debacle. It is OVER for them in Hollywood now.
Good maybe they'll go away n shut up.
The Tinseltown Trollope.
Breaking with protocol is rebellion, and that’s what she’s done from the start. It’s also an image thing. Photos of her holding flowers, her putting the flowers down - it’s about her, and the audience was her excuse. No other Royal holds flowers or gifts, and for good reason. There’s a reason there’s a protocol, and you can be assured that she was reminded of protocol before going out that day since she rarely adheres to it.
No, it wasn't out of respect for the people because she knew from being in the BRF that you hand flowers over to the aides and she knew that it's for security reasons as she did this while a Working Royal. They didn't ask her to place the flowers, she offered to do it but she didn't need to and Prince William and Catherine weren't doing that. She clearly wanted photo ops and was doing that, she was rebellious in the BRF! It was consistent of her behaviour in the BRF. She used to stick her tongue out on Royal walkabouts, we saw it. They also had deals before they left the BRF. HMTQ did have to speak to her several times. Also she was found taking photos, videos inside the Palace & in HMTQ private areas. Disrespectful! Some appeared in their Docu Series
Pls take note that she saw the camera aimed at her before she responded and smiled to the guy
By this time she had already been on many walk-abouts, she knew what the protocol was when it came to flowers or gifts. Lack of not knowing protocols not an excuse. Sabrina has confirmed what most people I know thought she said. My impression and opinion was that she wanted to place the flowers for a photo op. Why, the flowers were in the opposite direction of their travel down the line.
I agree, your comment is spot on in my opinion!!
🎯
💯
So if she wanted a photo op that meant we should see her push others out of the way or push, squirm Infront of others . Did we see that?? Is that such a bad thing anyway? She wanted the world to know she did care about the Queen because she was important to her husband and she is very supportive of Harry. What's wrong with that? Honestly, let's entertain the idea that she is a fake person. So what? As long as she does her royal duties and looks the part why does it matter??? This is just hate for hating sake, just because you can. Must be nice sitting in your Ivory tower throwing stones.
@@TimTamRipple The Monarch’s death isn’t the time for a photo op. Pull your head out and consider the situation🙄🇬🇧🇺🇸🪶🕯
It has since been reported that a Netflix photographer was there and she told them she would be going out to placing flowers while crying for the photo-op. This was found out which is why the unscheduled walk-about occurred (to prevent the photo-op). She was angry and it shows. Her pay check & ulterior motive were being altered
🎯🎯🎯
The irony is that the aide is poles apart and way above the rent a girlfriend.
and thankfully so
Exactly!
Just WOW🥺
There was a flash of nastiness which she quickly retrieved and ended with a strained fake smile !
No one has ever been put under such microscopic scrutiny as Meghan. Who could survive such scrutiny? Not me, I’m sure. How about you?
I agree. So much criticism on the web about her/them. This man wasn’t unfair though. He tried to be objective.
The quickness with which she responds to the aide @ 14:32 and her facial expression let's me know the bullying claims are real.
Definitely
. Well, actually you don’t “know” anything Terry.
@@susanmetz9892 lol and you do?
She had that condescending tone, imo
Also condescension. An "duper's delight"
In the UK, we didn't see people turning their backs on the couple. In her first interview after the funeral MM gushed that the crowd showed PH and her so much love and warmth. The crowd wasn't there for them they were there to pay respect and condolences for the passing of our most loved Monarch.
Also, the Sussexs had hidden microphones.
@alexispaterson814
MM absolutely reeked of alcohol & was rather wobbly.
Hazbeen & MM had planned on being late on going outside, with their own paps !
William & Catherine were made aware of this & they moved asap to meet the public, Hazbeen & Smegsie were out smarted. We saw many people prefer to speak to William & Catherine, the others not so much !
One lady was seen to turn her back on Meghan but that was it.
@@Toni-islandlife
Alas,not ! Many faced her down & put their hands in their pockets. It was rather toward the end of the event. Remember, not one of her paid
posse were there ! 😂😂
Yes, they were. That's why she went to the other side. @lynnhexler-haan3357
Прям не могу
The flowers were given to ME!!!
Yes, I agree now with you. At first, I thought she was tring to be humble and gracious. Now I think it's what the projection of image will be. She always knows where the cameras are.
She honestly just needs to be in control of everything. everything!
Harry and his wife are a good match.both inadequate,both with a very jaded view on life and probably 3 sheets to the wind.as with these sort of mis matches they will be the ruin of each other.running out of money will be first.when poverty comes through the door,love[wich they dont have its all cupboard love]flies out of the window.
She just didn’t want to be told what to do , she was on high alert and was belligerent towards the aide
Yes exactly.
And that’s exactly what you would say, told you I know you very well
Don’t give up
@@Oduguy1010 are you ok? 👍
Absolutely
All she wanted was to make sure there was a photo of her holding flowers.
When Markle spoke to the royal aide she clearly looked annoyed & irritated, it's the aides job to place the flowers but Markle again refused to adhere to protocol !!! Being given the late Queen's flowers gave her a feeling of importance & admiration, so she wanted to relish the moment and hang on to them...she also wanted to be cradling an arm full of flowers in front of the world's press, trying to demonstrate how much she cared !!! Let's be honest Markle didn't give a damn about the Queen's passing.
For a woman obsessed with security it seems weird not to hand the flowers over. They are a security risk which is why the RF are supposed to hand them over. A form of lip reading was practiced in the Lancashire Cotton Mills in the UK where my grandma worked. It enabled the workers to communicate and chat over the loud machines. It was called Mee Mawing.
Now that the Queen has passed Catherine has been seen accepting a large amount of flower. She must not be worried about security.
@@susanmetz9892 Catherine didn’t quit being a working royal, and then proceeded to complain incessantly about losing the security perk of the job. Catherine also didn’t let her husband openly announce in a book how many people he has killed, which in turn kicked a hornets nest resulting in a fatwa being put on him.
M on the other hand has done all those things.
Don’t openly complain about a lack of security, then do stupid things that put you in potential harms way.
My grandfather worked in them also and talked about lip reading.
@@StandAsYouAre . So you’re saying that Meghan deserves to be a security risk?
@@susanmetz9892 she definitely opened the door to being in need of greater security.
Can we please see....the clip where THE PRINCESS OF WALES " greyrocks" her. She visibly squirming with discomfort. Go Catherine. ❤
Sophie froze her with a glance. Team Wessex!
@@dragonclaws9367that was glorious, wasn't it?
What does grey rocks mean?
@poisonivyheart6621 NARCISSISTS feed off others reactions. To confound and get rid of a narcissist. And stop their sick games. Greyrocking is being FLAT HAVING NO EXPRESSION,KEEPING STILL. Not reacting to them. They hate it.
I think she wanted to use the flowers to get more noteriety and camera time. She wanted to walk the flowers to the designated place so she could be noticed as taking an active part in caring and mourning. She was hoping to grandstand
This is exactly the same way she behaved on the Variety red carpet a few weeks ago with her assistant that had to move her along. That assistant funnily enough left her position a few weeks later or in my opinion she was let go for daring to move her along. She has form in this area and we've seen it many times.
There were Netflix cameras in the crowd and she wanted the shot of her laying down flowers.
For the “flower” issue, I don’t think any of these reasons fit. #6- especially don’t fit because people in the UK already know when you hand off flowers or anything else to a member of the RF, it then gets handed off to a staff member. Heck I’m an American and we know some of their protocols.
She is just a brat that love’s control. Just looking at her face and body language, you can see what she is about.
We are all on to her actions how she controls him, so she thinks she can control everyone the same.
She wanted to hold the flowers to make a good photo for the Netflix camera in the crowds.
Could be just to hold something...she is very awkward with her hands.
She wanted a paparazzi shot of her leaving the flowers. She's evil.
I have a better name for this woman n it is certainly not "brat"
For someone who says they’re never going to protect me, they won’t protect us, and they’re trying to protect them by taking flowers that could be a security risk…it’s mind boggling. This supports the claim that she is difficult and wants things done her way. It’s the Monarchy! There are so many protocols and traditions in place, and partly for safety!
Her pointing of the finger was like a mom telling her kid to stop, or to go somewhere. Not nice.
What I think was missed though was after her saying "I appreciate that" she quickly snaps back her head, not waiting for any response, she 😊didnt care about his duty it was about what she wanted.
You cannot seriously suggest that in a moment of weakness she actually exercised humility. She was playing to the cameras and buttering up to the crowd making it all about herself. She does not have lapses of character.
Yes, wanted these kind of photos ops for Netflix.
Definitely!!!
Except, MM has NO character!
It’s always about her!
Hear Hear!!! She’s not capable of anything but 2
The reason the security aid wanted to take the flowers is because it’s a security issue. Apparently the royal family is briefed very very very very very thoroughly, when there is a huge event like this and emotions are fragile they’re nervous of hidden threats, and apparently it has happened to the queen in earlier times. The security interview explained that this is a long standing protocol and every member of the family is warned, drilled, briefed, and actually in the end a woman in the security stood her ground and instructed harry he had to tell her to hand those flowers over. She did know about the protocol and chose to not follow instructions, the security was nervous because harry has made such a public issue about being safe
With all respect, I did not see the assistants go and get the flowers from Kate and William only after they collected several bouques. The moment Meghan received her first one, the assistant was right with her. It felt intimidating to me. He might have had good intentions but it looked overdone.
@@belescli Perhaps knowing how the public emotions were running high on Meghan and Harry the security was laser beamed on their interactions from the crowd. Considering H&M ravaged the monarchy leading up to Prince Philip’s and the Queen’s death I would think that this occasion presented an opportunity for some to exact some type of harmful behavior to /on the duo in question.
@@belescli Not true! All Royals, not that Harry and his vile wife are anymore, are instructed NOT to hold on to flowers as there could be something inside them!
She wanted to do a prearranged PAP walk with the flowers to the Queen's memorial! She's a self-serving, self-absorbed narcissistic sociopath! 😏😏
@@belescli Yes they did. There is video of the aids taking flowers from William and Catherine.
AND the Firm knew she was wired, the transmitter box could easily be seen at her waist. She wanted a photo by herself placing the flowers for her Netflix deal. She absolutely did know protocol.
The fake smile and slight bow were done to minimize her initial rude response to him.
She isn't smart enough to know that the flowers are not for her but for the Queen that she could not stand!
In my opinion the quickness of her turnaround means to me that she started off being annoyed. that she was hearing him and he kept trying to get her attention so she turns around real fast with annoyance but then you can see her kind of adjust her attitude, per polite smile the courtesy. suddenly adjusted her attitude remembering she’s around people. she’s has cameras on her
Exactly the way I saw it
There is protocol in place. The person is there to help. She should abide by the protocol. And be nice about it. Obviously, she wants the attention on her and break protocol again.
I had no opinion, because I had seen the Queen handle items left for Princess Diana. I was surprised at first but it being the Queen not not disrespectfu.
I saw it as #10, yes it falls in to #2 , Image management but we now know they had a camera crew arranged to follow them and the shot of her actually placing the flowers down herself is a huge $$$ money shot in comparison to simply holding them.
She adjusted her attitude b/c she realized she was head on to the cameras.
I believe she was being snarky with her quick response to the aid. The excuses of she didn’t know protocols, she was awkward…. 🙄. She acted like she was at a red carpet event for her movie. A snarky person can still say “thank you and I appreciate that”. She was very quick to cut him off.
This exactly. the 'Thank you' was not a genuine thank you, it was a snarky one.
I agree I see 🌺 her teeth kind of tight she being a B sorry I know women and THAT was Snarky And snotty and b itchy ! You don’t need to know the protocol I am so common lol I would see the aid he would have asked me and I would have handed him what he wanted no questions asked ! Easy so easy to figure it out ! She wanted those flowers 🌸 like I’ll do with them what I want and I TOLD YOU ALREADY ! I see her face and know exactly her mood
I think she wanted to place the flowers herself because she wanted the photo op.
I also think that she wouldn't care at all about how the person who handed them to her feels about what she does with them. She was holding them upside down by her leg so I doubt very much if the exchange with the aide was because she was respecting "the honor" being paid to either her or the Queen by hanging on to them. She wanted a big armload of flowers to put with the rest herself, that was the important part to do it herself, to make it look like the people were connecting to her entrusting her, counting on her to put the flowers where they needed to go. It's all about her image, even when that image is a lie.
She could be in a hurry talking to the aid, because she was interacting with the people when he disrupted their interaction. It may have seemed rude for her to be brief with the aid, but it’s also rude to interrupt her interaction with those people as they could have been in the middle of a sentence of condolences. For Megan, it’s a no win situation. She was trying her best to be respectful to the people she was interacting with, AND to the aid that she didn’t ignore.
“I already told them”. That’s all you need to know. Says it all.
That woman doesn’t have a humble bone in her body! She wanted to take those flowers to place them later for pictures of herself, just as in Uvalde, TX. She can’t do anything to protocol. She was rude, condescending and inappropriate.
If her reason for keeping the flower was benevolent, why did she look so pissed?
She didn't look pissed at all to me
MsKingX her face was vile and angry as she turned to the security guard, hence the over the top curtsy/bow to him to try and redeem herself.
Exactly! When she very first turned to the aide, she snaps her head sharply & quickly to the side as people do when they're telling someone off.
What I take away from Megan’s refusal to hand over flowers is, to me, a passive aggressive way to, again, ignore protocol with regard to the RF. To ignore a pattern of disregard that she displays, for anyone who is to be given preference or any protocols that are traditional, is ignoring a “baseline” attitude belonging to Megan. She’s not ignorant of proper etiquette; she disregards it; feels it’s somehow degrading to her and by ignoring it, she feels it should change.
I agree… I think she wanted to be seen with an armload of flowers. That way, she could say,”Look how loved I am.”
Exactly. That's what she lives for. At that allegedly, filming for Netflix content was uppermost in people s minds.
Exactly. That's what she lives for. At that allegedly, filming for Netflix content was uppermost in people s minds.
And she felt superior to the assistant, felt completely justified in TELLING him that she is NOT obligated to do anything she doesn’t want to.
Well, I agree with her, if that is true.
"I already told them that I will take the flowers over there. I will/should do that. I appreciate that, thank you".
You could not have sugarcoated her rude behavior any more….she clearly said, I told you, then realized she was on camera and back peddled
I think there was two different sides. Unfortunately, saying, “the body language is exactly what I’d expect …” This is exactly the problem: her initial reaction was annoyance (her mask slipped-but supported by Meghan saying, “I already told them,” she’s annoyed they’re not listening), then she either, put back up the mask for the public or the cameras. I do believe the second half of the reaction is what she wanted to portray.
Exactly. She was annoyed and even angry until she realized people might notice how aggressive she's being so she needs to reign it in.
She's the queen of fake smiles
I@@GameChanger597
Told Who? A bomb couldn't get those flowers from her
She simply feels to far too important (in her own mind) to follow instructions. Even though it was protocol and for security reasons, she has to have the last word which is often a refusal of sorts. She’s just a nightmare 😫
In between her polite smiles, I see a second of discontent and anger in her expression when speaking to the aid about the flowers.
It was all about Image Mgt. She decided she would hang onto flowers. She dismissed the aide, indicating she wanted him to go away. She changed sides because thats where William and Catherine were, and she wanted o upstage them. She just refuses to accept the British protocol.
I think she is just so oppositional that her first reaction is “NO”.
This was from a year ago and many things have happened.i think she volunteered to do what she did for her Netflix series. With her, everything she does has a purpose for her own gain.
Aw, she's never been polite in anything
My 1st opinion was that she wanted to put the flower down and get the photo op and I still think that
In my opinion,,, If she is narcissistic, it would be all about her. I can clearly see her holding back her anger and frustration towards the poor gentleman 😳😣. I felt so bad for him. He's only doing what is expected of him and for her to treat him in such a way,,, speaks volumes 😡.
Eyebrows also go up when you’re being condescending towards someone, when you think they’re obviously in the wrong and it’s a sort of ‘stay in your lane’ look, which I believe is the case here. We’ve noticed how she yanked her hand off the aide helping her get off the car on her wedding day too, which I felt the same way about - how dare you, you’re beneath me.
I suggested condescending, as well!😊
Yes!
Exactly what I see
There’s also a note of sarcasm in her expression with the aide, and I’m sure she says “thank you. I appreciate that”, in a sarcastic way. The expression on her face mirrors that sarcasm tone.
I’ve could never work out why she, a Duchess, was curtsying to the male courtier while she said those words. No one else has mentioned the strangeness of this action.
Exactly...this curtsy was so weird. It looked like a nervous action to me.
She’s been in this position before, even had an assistant to take flowers, so she knows. She heard the guy behind her, she knew what and why he was asking, she ignored the guy and with quick realization she knew he wasn’t going away so she was going to have to address she doesn’t want to hand over the flowers. So she basically said no, I’m keeping the flowers, thank you.
DEFINITELY image management and if she'd got a picture of herself 'respectfully' placing flowers for the crowd, particularly if she was the ONLY one to do it, would have been worth millions in great PR. got to look after the image - helps the $$$s to pay for the lifestyle.
This was always my thought and your analysis confirmed it to me.
Another ulvaede moment
She wants to claim the flowers as if they were given to her.
One of the worse things she said was to the late Queen..."Drop Dead", she had a cheek to be there.....
She knew to hand over for security reasons, but she wanted that pic for Netflix. It looked like she was tipsy,and agitated because she had wanted her OWN walkabout for Netflix and was told NO; to lay the flowers herself like at Uvalde, TEXAS. She quickly realized after at first being instantly annoyed, that she needed to fix that .That little nice gesture was her "I've screwed up again","Please don't tell on me".🇺🇲
Someone commented that she told the person who gave her the flowers that she would put them on the pile personally
😅
It's not in Meghan's character to do anything for anyone unless it served her purpose too.
I think first she was proud holding the flowers as if they were for her, and she also looked comfortable holding them, then the aid disrupts her and those feelings and she gets annoyed but quickly recollected herself and came up with some excuse to hold on to the flowers, smiled a contemptuous smile and thanked him with a fake thanking
She wanted to put them down for HER photographer to get that shot. She got told to give them to the aid later and she did but was not happy.
She said “ i already told them I would do it”. Not oh, ok. And blocked him. I am more on board with rebellion. She did know . She verified she already told them. So they told her.
She was trying to b polite
But
Was ANGRY
I felt it
I think she knows protocol. I think she had planned to do this from the very beginning. It didn’t matter who they were from she wanted to look like she’s dedicated to what the people want. There’s always a motive
Sneaky motives. No good intention at all...ever...horrid....
She thought she was going to be a breath of fresh air.
Shes already realized nobody wants to acknowledge or shake her hand. Its her only chance to make it about herself.
She blew it. She was given the position to do so much good, but she blew it.
She had been on many walkabouts when she was a working royal, so she would know the purpose of the aides being there.
As a woman with long hair, one thing I can say is that especially when I'm outside, my hair can get in the way, in my face, and I automatically will brush it aside and behind my ear. For me, in those situations, it's not grooming per se. It's for physical comfort that isn't for psychologal comfort. Even the slightest breeze can cause fly away hairs to start to tickle your face when your hair is long. Just thought I'd throw that out there.
Same. Mines a pest at times...
I agree. Sometimes putting our hair back in place and out of the way is just that
My hair is always in my face outside lol.
If the long hair is a problem, then just style the hair so that it isn't quite so problematic... tie it up/back, or even a shorter style. Just a thought.
@@zenaburgess2855 the wind will blow if it wants to and long haired women will opt to adjust their hair , or skirts or whatever the wind blows! Her putting her hair back in place is not a problem for her seems she has no problem putting it back in place.
We have become a over critical community. She would have to be God to not have done something wrong in persons intent on criticizing to not do so!
Maybe Harry prefers her with her hair down. Somethings should just be left to preference and not be used to vilify.
The only reason she’s stressed is that she’s afraid that rotten tomatoes and eggs would be thrown at her
A friend always said the expression when someone tells you who they are believe them!
I hadn't seen the video before watching your reaction video. My interpretation was that she wanted to lay the flowers down herself. 1.) Because she told whomever gave them to her that she would 2.) Because it would make her look good. 3.) She had no problem telling him what she was going to do. She does what she wants.
She does what SHE wants. Isn’t that exactly the problem. This is the monarchy, in a country she is not from, it’s tradition and all behavior is up to the monarch, NOT her. She & Harry are extremely disrespectful. If a rude party guest was disruptive, I wouldn’t invite them over again. They wanted to leave their royal duties, so go then and don’t come back.
But mainly it was to make money, cause she knew a shot of her putting flowers herself would be great for publicity..
i just thought she looked cross.
@@taramcgavan7654no. There is PROTOCOL FOR SAFETY, and Many Other Reasons. It’s NOT about her!
The way she has talked repeatedly about how nonsensical it is to courtesy, she courtesies to an aide/guard.
My very first idea was #5 and then #2. Purpose and at the same time was image. Her purpose and her image. It’s always about HER!
Even as a commoner I would have given it to him with a smile and thanks
Whatever she said, her facial expressions and eyes said everything! She was rude and annoyed, struggled to hide it.
It was preceded by an interaction with the person who gave her the flowers. So that person could have asked her to place the flowers. We are well aware that many view her as an outsider with an agenda. I've seen an interview with Harry who made it clear he saw the treatment of her was having the same impact it had had on his mother and he wasn't about to let that happen again. It was his choice to leave.
She wanted to lay the flowers herself. Photo opportunity.
Dude.. you have to be reaching not only for a totally different situation but also looking at the whole thing through "I hate Meghan markle glasses and cant se real life"
I didn't see rudeness at all.
Not at all. She was assertive and kind. There was nothing there
For me it's not that she wants to hold on to the flowers per se, it's more of a power trip. She doesn't want to be told what to do. She's the one calling the shots and she wants the whole world to know it.
Totally agree...MM always has an agender for self promotion...She knows the Royal protocols...It was a very spur of the moment act of them doing a walk about, stated by the press!...And considering the security nightmare for the Place they do not want "especially MM and or Harry" walking off in a different direction to the security teams. Considering Harry is in the midst of trying to get PUBLIC funding for security!...Definitely Self Promoted Move!
Royals cannot hold onto flowers, or gifts, because of booby-traps. Rachel knows darn well, she was told “never hold on - - pass them on.” She’s on a power-trip for sure.
I agree
Get a life! Sheep! Really is that right mr expert?
When she moved to the other side, that poor guy who asked her for the flowers seemed really anxious to ask her to give him them again.
She dangles the flowers to the ground-she isn’t showing respect for the audience with that. Not at all. I don’t believe in the reason for her actions.
I think her expression showed she was annoyed and somewhat impatient that he offered to take the flowers when she had already “told them” she would place the flowers herself. That’s what I picked up after listening to what she said and watching her face expression.
My initial comments remain the same, she knew the protocol, and she was dismissive. Delivering the flowers herself only had to do with her self importance.
In watching her what impressed me as rude and/or angry was the way she turned her head so fast and Immediately had an answer on her lips. She didn't listen to him - she anticipated him and knew she was supposed to hand off the flowers, but flowers make her look softer, as you pointed out, so she wasn't going to follow protocol. I am surprised a bit that she didn't hurt her neck. Your adding the lip readers and sign language was a great idea! And the list and getting response from your audience. Thank you!
I think this, too. M was so quick to turn and refuse to hand them off. I think she knew the protocol, she knew it was gonna be requested of her and was prepared to say no. When I saw this clip the first time, I also thought she was being rude but then remembered where she was, all the cameras, etc and tried to soften it because she knew it'd look bad, hence the little bend of the knee and "I appreciate it". I don't know her motivation behind not handing over the flowers. Surely someone explained the security reasons why it's done and that should be enough for her.
@@mateowilliams2162
What impressed me is you empathize with the aid, but not with the people giving condolences to the family? Megan was interacting with them, when the aid disrupted it. Out of respect for those people giving their condolences.. don’t u think it’s right she was brief with the aid, so she can resume her interaction with the people giving condolences? Empathy should be given to all people involved. Not just the aid. Megan was right to prioritize getting back to the people and their feelings, rather than the aid who disrupted their interaction.
@@lyncap1047 Incorrect, the flowers are handed over immediately, the aide should NOT ever have to ask for them as they are always passed over because they are a huge security risk, she was being difficult in her action as she knew what the protocol was, the public also know the protocol. she wanted to take the flowers herself to lay them which would have given her the solo performance she wanted as she knew the car was waiting up ahead for them and not back the way the arrived. Harry and another aide had to practically force her to hand over the flowers, just follow the protocol and don't make life difficult for the people doing their jobs!
@Lyn Cap, thank you! Finally, someone actually gets it. It's really quite obvious.
I think she felt it would be rude to just hand them away.
When I viewed this as it was first aired : It's control and power. It's " I decide ". The tone was a bit sharp.
You brought up some good points. I remind myself that my sister often sounds rude when i know it wasn't meant to be rude. So I'll give Meghan that same benefit.
Errr why is everyone guessing what she said - I’ve seen a version of this with sound and the audio is perfectly clear. She told the guy that she had told the person who passed them to her, that she would put the flowers on the spot for them.
I agree, I think media is blowing it up because she's not a very likeable person, but always appreciate Spidey's perspective
Came to ask the same thing. Why are we beating a dead horse? 😂
I was asking myself the same thing. Also it was right at the beginning of the walkabout she probably didn't know she was going to get more requests to deliver the flowers to the gate from the people who were blocked off before they got a chance to put them there.
I've noticed these youtubers can't help themselves because talking about Meghan brings on views sooo $$$.
@@Kiefsti The horse is so DEAD
@@inyange she works very hard to keep people talking about her. She’s a schemer and a liar. Her entire life rotates around hate and destroying the RF. She is most hated woman in the world . Anytime she puts her self out in public with some stunt people will talk.
This video was so fun; I enjoyed partaking in the analysis process, and got so excited when I saw a theory I left in a comment on the last video appear as #9 in this one! But forgot to add- breaking with protocol is persistent behavior for Megan, at least when it comes to fashion. She has broken rules about nail polish color, stockings, and necklines in dresses she has worn. Hearing what she most likely said to the aide, “I told them” makes me think she did go over the plan with aides beforehand. She wanted to keep the flowers and lay them down herself, which confirms the photo op theory too!
Recently we all found out how MUCH Harry and Meg compare Meghan with Diana. I think her "rebellion" is her attempt to earn Diana status. She wants to be the "People's Princess." Unfortunately for Meghan, she hasn't figured out that snapping at staff on camera is not a Diana look.
Maybe they were for her only
@@sula1529😂😂😂😂😂😂
Surely she saw the other Royals put the flowers down.?🤣
I think she was annoyed and did not give a darn about protocol.
Rebellion fits her perfectly.
There is another reason the aide takes flowers away
quickly, it’s for security reasons, in case something
is hidden in the flowers that could cause harm, she
would have been well aware of this. Also the foursome
we’re moving in the opposite direction to where she is
pointing, there would have been no reason for her to
go back as the aide were laying the flowers that were
a tribute to the queen, It looks like her husband was
approached by another aide to ask for her flowers.
I saw a clip shared on CZcams from someone filming next to the person giving her the flowers and you can hear Megan clearly say ‘ok would you like me to lay those flowers down for you?’ I think she was being true to her word by keeping hold of those flowers and doing as she said she’d do for that person
But she wouldn’t be wanting a photo op would she?
She needs to follow protocol like the other Royals .
@@cybersal7 why she’s not royal?
MM knows she is supposed to hand off the flowers as soon as the aide approaches her. That is protocol, and she knows that. It is done partly for safety reasons -- who knows what might be concealed in the flowers? She's just an awful person who snapped at the aide, then noticed a film crew and put on her sweet face (too late!).
@@rubynibs She doesn't have to do shit 🤣🤣
@@katem3603 Yes but don't forget she is a No1 virtue signaller.
She was not supposed to be at this. The aide was telling her to go back to her place..
I remember seeing a lady in the crowd completely ignore her and sort of sniggered to a lady next to her. Perfect reaction from this lady.
Interesting. Rebellion stuck out for me initially because of the speed of the response. The fact that she curtsied to an aide also felt odd for someone who said she didn't know she had to curtsy for the queen yet she did it for an aide. The other part was who "they" are. I actually didn't even think about initially that "they" could be the audience.
I felt like it hinted at a discussion about the protocol before hand with someone that she told "them" ahead of time that she was going to take the flowers. Her speed of response also initially felt like she was annoyed that she has to repeat herself. The curtsy felt more like an "ohh shoot that probably looked bad. I have to change my appearance. " So I'm torn now with just the definition of "they".
Meghan was drunk, hence why they were 45min late, trying to sober her up.
She wanted to break protocol and wanted to make it as awkward as she could.
Harry was trying to guide her and pull her back.....
She definitely rebelled.....
🎯🎯🎯 she KNEW she "looked " Bad!!
i thought a previous aide had already tried to take the flowers and she said no and this was the 2nd aide hence the “i told them”
@@michellehogg8811that makes sense. That was William’s private aide. “They” could have inadvertently refer to Netflix. She had apparently had a few, it was said she stank of alcohol and that wobbly walk looked very suspicious! (not in this clip)
Also, her use of the word “them” brings to mind a typical form of US rudeness - their habit of referring to people (even those who are IN THEIR PRESENCE) as “him” or “her” or “them”, rather than referring to them by their name or their role (depending on their situation and audience) - eg very typically in a restaurant with family or friends, they will say to the server “he will have a … and she will have a …” rather than “my friend will have a … and my wife will have a …”
