...Scene One?

I think we probably do need a third thread.

Thing is, his mother favoured that forthright approach too

I just wish samantha Markle were around to shed some light- she’s been uncharacteristically quite

Genuinely annoyed that Meghan is supposedly dialling into the meeting today. Why the fuck should she have a say? She fucked off back to Canada and left Harry; he should be speaking to his family on their behalf and that’s it. She isn’t a proper Royal, she hasn’t earned her stripes and she doesn’t deserve any input; beyond what moronic Harry remembers to parrot on her behalf.

The two of them are raging bellends.

AlternativePerspective · 13/01/2020 08:40

I don’t think he’ll go back to Canada.

There was another thread on this yesterday which I think was deleted so I’ll be vague, but I think that all this talk of leaving and then Harry staying behind to be spoken to by William and the queen etc is a show of trying to make his marriage work.

I think the involvement of the queen and William is a show of testing his loyalties, and I think that when it comes to the crunch he’ll stay here without her under the guise of doing what’s right for the family but in actual fact he’s been given a get-out which won’t show what’s really going on.

@Wheresthebeach we Brits say many of the same things about the Americans too! Meghan seems to feel much more at home in Canada than she does in the US though.

Although I still think that Vancouver is just a staging point and that she'll be back in California before long. With or without Harry.

MadamBatty · 13/01/2020 08:41

Pineapple Ireland & the UK are very very different culturally.

On the bullying, I manage a large team, I’ve been accused of bullying for being very clear on what and how somebody needs to do to do their job.

DeeZastris · 13/01/2020 08:41

I’d let them do their tell all interview. It will eventually blow over and Harry will always be known as someone who will quite happily stab his brother in the back.

This.

Onprozacandmyhighhorse · 13/01/2020 08:43

Samantha Markle was on Five live with Chris Moyles on Friday. She more or less said she had been fully vindicated in what she has said about Meghan from the start regarding how she treated people.
Chris Moyles remarked it was a very strange interview! I fully expected her to be on with Piers Morgan this morning.

crispysausagerolls · 13/01/2020 08:43

Also, I have some fairly compelling inside intel that confirms William did cheat on Kate; and got Rose pregnant too. Explains why Kate forgot herself at the Mary Berry thing and snatched her shoulder away when he touched her.

But that doesn’t mean I don’t think Harry and Meghan are the devils.

Wheresthebeach · 13/01/2020 08:45

pineappledanish - I agree. Canada isn't big enough for her. Lovely place for a holiday home though.

She'll want the glitz of the U.S. The Americans are deluded about racism. They are a deeply divided society, and the Southern States in particular is shocking in it's attitudes. Just look at the abortion laws to give you an idea of the political spectrum. We may not be perfect in the UK, but honestly I believe we are less racist than the States overall. Take a look at American ghetto's any day of the week - see any white faces there?

Part of me thinks this ^^

Part of me thinks he's been stitched up like a kipper and is doing what MM says to save his marriage. I suspect if she can get him to leave the RF, the UK and all this military duties, she can get him to do anything. He's already pitching for work for her, what the hell is next?

CathyorClaire · 13/01/2020 08:56

Royal tell alls never end well. They sound more shrill and deluded by the minute.

EXCEPT Rose and her husband were at Kates birthday weekend in Amner last weekend. They went to church with them.

That pretty much debunked the rumours.

TheGirlFromStoryville · 13/01/2020 09:05

Hmm.
A tell all interview would be interesting. I notice that there are already comments regarding H&M's mental state - possibly to try to mitigate any possible interview embarrassment for the RF.

I can quite believe it regarding PW and the alleged affair. I don't think he's the caring family guy his PR image portrays.

crispysausagerolls · 13/01/2020 09:07

elspeth

I know everyone says this so fully prepared not to be believed (although if you scroll through my posting history of some years you’ll see I’m a posh wanker who does mix in the circles so unless it’s been an elaborate rouse all this time - and I’m not saying some people don’t do that, I can only say I have been honest on an anonymous forum) BUT I know someone in that particular circle who says that’s what happened. No reason on hell why she would lie about it to me.

I say this as someone who desperately didn’t want the rumours to be true as I really like K Midders (have never met her, sadly).

MrPickles73 · 13/01/2020 09:07

H&M have blown it now having contacted Oprah etc. Their tell all is unlikely to tell us anything we didn't already now.

The quicker they head to North America the better.

crispysausagerolls · 13/01/2020 09:09

@MrPickles73

They have contacted Oprah?!? 😱

Rinoachicken · 13/01/2020 09:09

@MrPickles73

All it will tell us is just has nasty petty and underhand they really are

LaMarschallin · 13/01/2020 09:09

That pretty much debunked the rumours.

Maybe as it was meant to do?

time4chocolate · 13/01/2020 09:11

What a sad state of affairs this is all turning out to beSad. A lot of which could have been avoided.

crispysausagerolls · 13/01/2020 09:11

@LaMarschallin

Quite!

TheMustressMhor · 13/01/2020 09:12

Samantha Markle has turned out to be right all along.

I will go will the bellend theory.

This has nothing to do with wanting to step back for a quite life.
If they wanted that then Harry could have followed Prince Edwards and the wessex’s example. Edward and his wife are working royals who lives a quite life, rarely seen in the tabloids Do their duty to the queen and earns their handout from the civil list.They do the boring bits and shakes the hands of the lesser mortals and then go home to live a life pretty much out of the public eye.
They weathered all the sly digs about him being the gay prince, marrying for a beard and just carried on with a quiet dignity living their life, raising their family and serving the royal family.

Easy to see where Edward and Sophie differ from Harry and MM.
