Harry and Meghan Resigning (Act 3 Scene 2)

[TheMustressMhor]

I am waiting with interest to find out what happens next, following on from this afternoon's talks at Sandringham.

Poor old Queen. She can't have finished the leftover turkey yet and here she is, embroiled in another crisis.

Completely agree.

All these posters self importantly bustling on to tell us off and profess shock at how mean, hysterical and/or weird we are. Thinking they're giving us a reality check of some kind

SeperatedSwans Mon 13-Jan-20 20:04:45 @MrsBrentford* I can picture it now Fergie swinging a handbag at Meghan, Anne shouting "leave it out Sarah, she's not worth it" Harry screaming at Andrew, Edward cowering behind the sofa and Kate and Will standing on a balcony next to Beatrice and husband waving and smiling whispering through gritted teeth "just wave and smile"

lol

OMG I go away for a day and there's a new thread!

Ie shamelessly placemarking before I read it.

My dad knew Princess Diana and said she was very manipulative. Can't say how as it's outing and frankly the old git only told me today!

And that's why the queen has supported it, and won't be punitive, she knows he has to pick his wife and child over his royal family. That that's the stark choice he had to make

And everyone who saw this coming was shouted down as racist and hateful

Regarding the unthinkable thought of Archie being kept away from Harry in any custody battle in a divorce situation, The Hague Convention applies to Canada and the US.

That won't happen though, but it's there if required.

Regarding the racism allegations, doesn't MM list herself as caucasian on her actors card thingy?

I just looked it up, The Hague Convention doesn't apply in Canada?

I may be going mad though...

The security cost £32 million pounds

More like £4 million actually.

Yep; all planned. Even the «leak» which prompted the statement by the Sussexes.

Meghan has kept on her lawyer, business manager and agent from her acting days. The UK was only ever going to be a pit stop for her.
Details of Meghan’s business interests
She spent all that quiet «family time» getting her ducks in a row.

An elderly friend is a huge royalist. Ex army. Met quite a few members of the royal family over the years. Perusing the paper today he snorted:-

"That fool Harry, if he came into my back garden today, I'd close the bloody curtains!"

So it's not all Meghan blaming and I think that just about sums up the reception they might expect to receive in the future.

If Phillip really did avoid meeting Harry then that is awful behaviour.

@Bluntness100 those have been my exact thoughts since the announcement.

Meghan will not compromise and I think she is power driven

If Phillip really did avoid meeting Harry then that is awful behaviour.

Yes, on Harry's side.

I think that for the first time ever I agree with Prince Phlllip.

She's taken the whole country to the cleaners.

The adoring looks in EVERY SINGLE photo I have seen today are sickening. So contrived.

Then you get to the reality, the youtube videos

@BillieEilish,

I think it does according to this anyway. But I'm not one for saying aha gotcha or anything, just saying what it says. I could be wrong too of course and some amendment may have slipped in!

I don’t think it’s awful at all. He’s clearly disgusted with his grandson and showed it in a dignified way. He’s spent most his life supporting the Queen and putting his country first.

I think treating your own grandson in that way is terrible.

I don't know why I am so bothered about this, but I just feel disappointed in Harry for turning his back on his family and country. As a mother I am sad he and his brother have grown apart. So many lovely photos in the past of Harry, William and Kate enjoying life together.

I really feel Meghan set her sites on Harry not for love but for position and it didn't go her way so now she has pulled him away and disowned the royal family as she did with her father when they didn't row her line.

Seriously, they will get more negative press than ever. This is not going to end well at all I am afraid. At the heart of all this is a family, royal maybe, but a family all the same. Really sad.

Well done Prince Philip if he did avoid harry. Harry is a disgrace to his family & the country. His wife is the lowest of the low.

Yup, Actions speak louder than words, so much speculation in the media , but the bottom line is this is one of the toughest times in Harry's adult life. And he's alone managing it whilst his wife and child are thousands of miles away in Canada. Through choice.

Any joint decision, any couple two years married, your spouse is going through something really major, you'd move heaven and earth to be with them and support them, you'd never just walk away and leave them to it. Not when you can choose to be with them.

She's done exactly that. She's walked away and left him to it. She flew in. Smiled for the media, held his hand, looked happy for the cameras, and then chose to walk away from him.

It says everything.

His own grandson has basically told his whole family to piss off. This might explain why Philip was in no rush to meet him.
