The great royal fandom prank of 2013

-
On June 18 2013, the fandom blew up after 2 supposed tweets were posted. The infamous royal fandom prank began with these 2 quotes from 1000picsofroyalty (ijustcambridge) and royaltyspeaking. This was back when nobody knew when in July the baby was due and so was believable

The Rachel post (heavyarethecrowns)

Rachel has been the most talked about blogger in the fandom's history. This post will  compile EVERYTHING. Starting with the masterpost on who she is and leading onto the receipts. It's long, so buckle up.  1) WHO IS RACHEL? Rachel is the single most notorious member of the royal fandom. She’s disliked by an unbelievable amount of people for her lies, hypocrisy and misogyny.  Our story begins on the murky land called of the royal forums in the mid to late 2000s, where Rachel was a member of a few forums under the name Mousiekins. On these forums (namely Royal Dish, Royal Gossip and Secret Royal Forum), she said wonderful Christian (n.b. Rachel is a Christian) things about Kate Middleton as: “The sick, twisted part of me is glad she is going to be a Princess as I think it will be the classic case of “be careful what you wish for”.

It also posted pictures from Arthur's social media. Arthur found the blog and threatened to expose their identity and got the lawyers involved.

The story of the student is one of the most iconic because of its impact on the fandom at the time. In April-May 2012, infamous fandom member Rachel was notorious for making claims about her connections with friends of the royals and would sometimes drop unproven information. Meanwhile over on the ohnotheydidnt live journal, someone who I'll call G learnt about Rachel and her claims to have inside information.So G decided to start anoning Rachel asking if she’d heard about Harry dating a student and planting random bits of information. This student was created by G. Rachel said she had heard about the student and went on to confirm the things that her anon was telling her on the regular.There are no receipts from those blogs because both Rachel and the Student deleted those blogs. But here's mrharrywales discussing some of the details. The story escalated, not helped by the fact Harry was spotted in Oxford, leading people to speculate he was there to see the student. The fandom...
