I think it's the rumours around that lady Rose woman?

Affairs?

Zingy123 · 12/12/2022 19:51

He has allegedly had affairs.

ofwarren · 12/12/2022 19:51

The thread will probably get pulled but there was gossip about an extra marital affair.

Justwingingit2005 · 12/12/2022 19:51

I'm sure I read that he had an affair.
Giving how much stuff has come out of that pair recently we will probably find out by Friday!

Michellexxx · 12/12/2022 19:51

I reckon it’s probably about the tights and the bridesmaids..much less exciting than being let on.

8misskitty8 · 12/12/2022 19:53

Probably the ‘rose’ story that was only in the media about a day before being pulled.

Sartre · 12/12/2022 19:53

It’ll be the affairs I’d imagine. William’s image has somehow been kept squeaky clean over the years, I don’t think he’s the perfect human so doubt he’s never made mistakes.

neverbeenskiing · 12/12/2022 19:53

They clearly want viewers to think this is going to be something juicy like an affair, I bet it will be something really trivial.

LindorDoubleChoc · 12/12/2022 19:55

He can really fuck off now, the whingeing git.

Williams affair

Pearfacebanana · 12/12/2022 19:57

I wonder if the programme will actually cover it in any depth.
Google Prince William and lady rose and add something to do with a peg.. you'll find it.

WorrieaboutFIL · 12/12/2022 19:58

Tightsgate?

Hotelfoxtrot · 12/12/2022 19:58

Harry thinks the royal family allowed the press to hound Meghan to take attention away from Williams affair

BedTaker · 12/12/2022 20:00

It could be anything couldn't it? Maybe he got caught drink driving or something years ago, maybe he didn't pass his exams to graduate St Andrews? My guess is that Harry won't actually spill the beans, he will just say enough to get everyone speculating and assuming it's the affair thing.

A bit like when Meghan told Oprah about the 'family member' who asked about Archies skin colour, but left it wide open to speculation about who it was.

bakalava · 12/12/2022 20:00

I won't play into their hands. They want you to watch it so you can find out the answer but it's just not that intriguing. One bald brother selling out another one. Quite frankly, warring pairs of brothers are as old as time as evidenced in Bible stories and Roman legends.

VariationsonaTheme · 12/12/2022 20:00

It’ll be the tights and tears story, nothing new. As much as he seems to hate his family I can’t see him blowing it up completely by telling all about William’s supposed affairs.

VladmirsPoutine · 12/12/2022 20:00

It's tradition that all the men in that family have affairs. I don't doubt one of the reasons Prince Phillip's will can't be made public for 100 years or whatever it is is because they don't want the embarrassment of a few kids he fathered here or there. Charles did it so I can't see why William is any different.

Pippa named her daughter Rose, and Pippa appears to be close to the Princess of Wales.

It would be a strange choice of name if William was indeed cheating on his wife with a woman named Rose.

I'm inclined to believe it is to do with the bridesmaids' tights. It isn't a particularly edifying story, regardless of who made whom cry. I think Meghan was unrealistic to think that the Royal Family would order the press to issue a 'correction' over such a silly story.

But then, maybe there is something more interesting behind the headline.

CharityShopChic · 12/12/2022 20:07

You really think they are going to lay it out specifically? Their MO is to make vague accusations and let everyone speculate.

beatsin8s · 12/12/2022 20:10

What was the tights story sorry?

I really can't see him talking about an affair, it will be something trivial as PP said and they're just making it look juicy in the trailer so people watch.

asblindasabat · 12/12/2022 20:11

When they talk about the ‘royal family’ are they actually referring to his relatives? I.e. King Charles, Prince William, Queen Elizabeth etc? Or do
they mean the institution and its staff?

Exactly. Do you really think Pippa, who is v close to her sister, would name her child after the woman who was shagging her bil?
