Does anyone else think that the Harry & Meghan show isn't going to be that explosive?

I really doubt that loads of dirt will be raked, or muck spread. I'm guessing that there will be a few "it was hard to speak" type complaints, which the media will blow up, but that it's not actually going to be as exciting as we're all being led to believe?

I'm reading a live stream on ny times but it sounds really random. They had a wedding before their wedding? They're going to reveal the sex of the baby?

@Tippexy

Does Fergie actually call herself Fergie???
I know! My jaw dropped when she said that.

@Tippexy

Apparently she didn’t know Diana did a very famous interview... hmm!

I don't believe that for one single second.

Interested in this thread?

I think she said that Doria asked her if Diana had done an interview and that was an example of Doria not knowing anything about the RF.

I can’t believe what she’s coming out with! Shock 🍿

I know!

She needs to specify who "they" is. Staff, aides, employees?

@Kendodd

I agree. And contrary to what most people think, I bet the RF think this interview/rift is an absolute gift, it takes the spotlight off Prince Andrew.
Who knows. Maybe that was the point. Take one for the team?

@Ohwhatevu

Can you stream this in the UK?
No. The Guardian has a typed livestream summary.

What I want to know is are they still getting money from the rf or charles ?

cantthinkofauniquename · 08/03/2021 03:19

He said that everything (all the money and security) was withdrawn and they used the money his mother left him to buy their house.

I want more clarity does he mean money he was paid for being a royal ? What about money from charles do they not get that or any other income?

He didn’t explicitly say they used his mum’s money to buy their house, rather his mum’s has helped them to forge a new path and cover security.

Charles cut Harry off financially but also stopped taking his calls.

Just seen on the news. Wow. Manipulative is my word of the day.

livinlavida2021 · 08/03/2021 07:25

@tootyfruitypickle I just saw it too - don't know how to feel about it!! I mean on one hand I still think bad mouthing your husbands family is unacceptable, but I also think by the sound of it the RF is totally unacceptable!!

It's all a mess.

So reading the news this morning it seems it was a little explosive.
JamesMiddletonsMarshmallows · 08/03/2021 08:02

Am I the only one who finds it difficult to sympathise with a millionaire in his own right who got cut off by his family financially after leaving his job, which was essentially being part of that family?

Apparently Meghan didn't know she had to curtesy to the queen. I'm not sure I believe that...but if it's true, why the hell did Harry take her into the lion's den without any warning on protocol?

teentipans · 08/03/2021 08:08

she didn't know she had to curtsy in private.

The family member asking about the kids skin colour is shocking. But he needs to name the person and explain the context.

Seemingly no questions about her own family? Surely that public rift would have contributed to her mental health?
