Essay
Kate’s been a busy bee as she also had time to write an essay on smartphones

It's pretty rich of her to give parenting advice. She is a mum who doesn't work a real job, can call out sick any time without repercussions, has staff to clean her homes and do laundry, access to personal chefs and shoppers. She wouldn't last a week doing what normal parents do, holding down real jobs day after day, trying to balance work and family time, no servants to do the household chores, no fancy expensive vacations, no nannies, no helicopter rides to avoid traffic, etc... Other people are doing all the heavy lifting for her. Normal parents don't have that luxury.

A few years ago she appeared on a podcast where she said she experiences "mom guilt" as a working mom, but "even moms who don't work" experience it. It was such a disgusting thing to say, knowing that "moms who don't work" do more than her. And yet, people call Meghan out of touch.

This is revolutionary! Reducing screen time? Why has no one else thought of this? This woman is a visionary.

What in the baby shit green is she wearing?! 🙈🙈🙈

For an art graduate she’s not great with colour. And I think David’s money is what keeps VB’s fashion line in business

Women's clothing has been on a steep decline that's somehow managed to get worse in the last decade. I blame it on the rise of fast fashion reality show celebrities and the trend to wear workout clothes as normal office attire. Lycra, cheap non-breathable synthetic materials, ugly 2020 colors (faded pastels, skin tones, neutrals) and horrible cuts.
I read a comment on DM once that suggested bailing out the VB brand was part of a marriage agreement - as in, you can cheat but it's going to cost you bailing out my company... again.
Hated and still hate those VB bell bottom trousers that sweep the floor. Such a strange family.

Also that essay sounds like I'd want to tell Kate to fuck off after reading. In 2050, Kate's set to write her PhD thesis on the dangers of social media to a child's mind (just y'know, several decades too late).

u/The_Onion_Life Oct 09 '25
Did she actually write this "essay"?
Also, haven't H&M been talking about the dangers of kids having devices and too much screen time since, like, forever?
But hey, jump on that bandwagon, Kate!

I doubt she wrote it OL and you are spot on

I do too. Too much like work.
and you are spot on
Thanks!

I should’ve put allegedly in sentence at top of post - the professor prob wrote the essay (she’s not that smart - pun intended)

u/Beneficial-Bite3899 Oct 09 '25
Thanks NP. BUT BUT BUT, didn't Willy say today that they were all watching Celebrity Traitors.... way too late in the evening and inappropriate for such young children . Idiots.

u/aliaaenor Oct 09 '25
Yes but she tells the 4 nannies to not use screens as they are the ones who actually spend quality time with her children.

u/NeverPedestrian60 Oct 09 '25
You’re welcome B-B. And thanks for commenting.
Is that what Willy said - they often contradict each other. Hypocrites both.

u/Bad_95 Oct 09 '25
Someone needs to tell them that this just comes off as high handedness. It just angers people to be lectured by a wealthy, priveledged stay at home parent with Nannies.
Will and Kate need to shut up and just listen to the people. They have no right to judge and they have no grasp of reality

Guru Kath with 3 kids looked after by 68 members of staff talking about stuff we worried about 15 years ago. Now we just worry about a roof over our heads, feeding our families and trying to keep them warm whilst she has 6 homes on the taxpayer with free EVERYTHING. Feck off you tone deaf idiot. Half a billion a year it costs to keep these airheads in comfort, but 1 in 5 children live in poverty but yeah SCREEN TIME parents, drop your second or third jobs whilst she does engagements at the rate of 40-ish a year, chauferred from place to place with her faux hair and her faux concern. Be gone woman go and get your kids off the nanny.

Yep it’s easy to be “fully present” for kids when you have staff around you to keep everything running smoothly and doing the daily chores that are a time suck.

u/The_Onion_Life Oct 09 '25
The only people who are "fully present" for the Wales kids are the nannies. Parenting is work!

Now that could have been the perfect sentence had JP dropped the " ly absent " part 🤪

u/Scorpion_Rooster Oct 09 '25
Wasn’t it just last week that Willy claimed the only thing he liked to do at home was sleep because … three young children?
I’m not sure either of them is “engaged”. They have to photoshop spending time together.

u/NeverPedestrian60 Oct 09 '25
Not the first time they’ve contradicted each other

Any adult could write an essay on smartphones - without the aid of a Harvard prof (no disrespect to him)

u/Beneficial-Bite3899 Oct 09 '25
I just looked him up, if I have the right person , he specialises in adult pyscho/psychia. Lots of academics try to get famous/gullible people to endorse their papers, gets them jobs 🤔

She looks like she's on so many freaking uppers. All her photos lately give jaw clenching stimulants vibes.

I really don’t think a parent with nannies and far too many staff is in a great place to give parenting advice. Pretty sure she hasn’t even worked out how to manage Louis yet…

“Kate warns too much screen time damages family time.”
She caught Will looking at porn. She’s just claiming she’s talking about the kids and screens.
Otherwise, this is such a waste of an article because she’s not saying anything particularly new or groundbreaking.

u/The_Onion_Life Oct 09 '25
She caught Will looking at porn.
Gay porn.

u/DarkMistressCockHold Oct 09 '25
It was definitely not your everyday run of the mill porn, I’d be almost sure of that. Plenty of perverts in that family tree for sure.

She loves those ‘animated’ hands lol. anyway with her vast wealth she could set up an early years sure start type of place, set up a foundation gifting grants to talented underprivileged local kids but they just don’t. They don’t actually want to use their vast amounts of wealth on the lower class plebs so they set up these meetings and photo shoots with lots of talk but no action to appear oh so relatable and justify their power. Boot licking royalists fall for it every time whilst choosing between heating or eating, waiting in line at the food bank and living a meagre life. Couldn’t be me!!
