….. to wonder exactly WHAT specific lie was told to protect Price William ?

[Thisisnotreallymyname]

Just that !
In the trailers for the next Harry / Meghan Netflix , Harry talks about how Courtiers lied to protect William .
Hmmmm - what could he gave done that needed lies told to us ?

The Rose thing is fairly well known though, to be fair, including among locals etc.

Recollections may vary ... but someone (either Kate or Meghan) made the other cry over an argument about whether Charlotte had to wear tights to H&M's wedding or not.

It's explained a couple of times up the thread ^^

With hereditary monarchs you inevitably end up with bad eggs sometimes (or often even). As they can’t be kicked out after 5,6,7 years as you would in any sane system, instead you have to whitewash their image and silence and coverup all their transgressions.

They’re like those FB users who put up photos of themselves in a hospital bed with a sad face emoji, followed by “I’ll DM you hon xxxx”

Apparently it's the media that Harry accuses of lying for William and not him - which is a tad ironic since the UK media kept Harry's secret about being in a warzone - and the US media leaked it.

They are trying to get revenge and good on them, they were treated like shite, I'd do exactly the same if it was me!

I'm still holding out hope we'll get Harry's views on Uncle Andrew.

Prince of Pegging

William and Kate are H & Meg’s direct rivals. They NEED William and Kate to look bad to big up their status in the US. So they can usurp them as figureheads of the RF. That was evident in the bad reception they got in the US with the mockumentary clips strategically timed to be shown at the same.

H will never have the status of King and people will get bored of him over there soon enough as the entitled, hypocritical non entity he is so he needs to make his mark hard to keep the dosh rolling to finance the mega star lifestyle they both believe they deserve.

The affair rumours were admittedly not true. I doubt H will spell out what he means. Its just to keep people guessing and hint at something bad.

William does not strike me at all as an adulterer. I read a few Blinds purportedly about H years ago which would make your hair stand on end!

It is boggling how people are taken in by this nasty, narcissistic pair of grifters. How can you not see through the fake emotions, facial expressions and outright lies? Bad luck to their families that they teamed up, it’s like a tag team of narkery!

I imagine William knew what H was like and sussed out Meg early on (there were rumours of sneaky pics of one of the children being taken on their first meeting), and that’s why he tried to get H to slow down manifesting full on narc rage, and years of pent up jealousy probably, with both barrels! Not only about H being the ‘Spare’ in terms of line of title. William was very close to Diana wasn’t he? I remember reading somewhere that she leant on him emotionally a lot and it was Diana who publicly referred to H as the spare. If she said that in public, probably said it in private too. He teams up with someone allegedly obsessed by Diana and bingo!

I never got the sense H was the ‘cheeky chappie’ portrayed in the press and I think more had been covered up about him than William who seems to be a genuinely nice guy.

I’ve never been bothered about the RF at all until all this all started and find it so interesting from a psychological POV. Very interested to see how the RF continue to deal with it too. They can’t keep silent as they’ll never stop, it’s the only way they can make their money. Meg successfully painted her own family (even her father) as complete trash for her own ends, to do the same with the most respected RF in the world will be a massive jewel in her crown!

I think the prince of pegging rumours are about as credible/on par with rumours of Meghan being a ‘yacht girl’ tbh

Could it be that story they covered up for Kate?

Haven't read all of the comments so apologies if I'm repeating.
Saw this trailer and instantly felt irritated by Harry's whinging vague allegations. I'm assuming they are continuing with the press complaints angle, that the press were willing to lie about something to protect William.
The same press printed false stories for months on end in order to protect Harry so that he could serve in Afghanistan unnoticed. He wanted to go overseas for a tour of duty of whatever its called. He/The royal family asked, and all of the press agreed, to print months and months of continued false stories about him carrying out royal duties in the UK and being seen in bars in London and so on, to disguise the fact that he was actually in Afghanistan.
Harry seems to have deliberately overlooked this in his vendetta against the evil press.

It was all over the international media, so yet again, Harry isn't saying anything that's not already out there. But the thing is now starting to get wearing. He's going round in circles with a litany of complaints he's already made on a variety of media. I'm fairly certain some of these complaints are legitimate. It's very clear someone was briefing against him and planting stories in the media. It's exactly what his father did to his first wife, and the direction the stories were coming from isn't too difficult to guess.

But by this stage, if he really has the courage of his convictions he needs to come out and name specifics. Who are they accusing of briefing against them? Who are the racists? What did they do/say? Who refused to help Meghan when she was suicidal? Who speculated about the tone of Archie's skin? Why did William need protection, and why were they thrown under the bus to achieve this?

When it comes down to it they haven't really said an awful lot, despite the outrage emanating from an incendiary media. It's all broad hints and evasions; that is, unless they're telling their story chronologically, in which case the best is yet to come. But if they don't provide answers to these questions before the series' end, they're going to lose whatever credibility they had in the first place.

I always thought Harry was an arrogant little berk and as thick as mince. Meghan seems made of better stuff: she's far brighter, more ballsy and more articulate than her in-laws, and got an awful deal from the media and most likely the family as well. I had sympathy with them at first. But at this point, they really need to shit or get off the pot.

That's very interesting.

I don't think there's any mystery over how she conned so many.

People were falling over themselves to ensure any bad word about her was labelled as racist. Especially on here.

oh blimey! just when I thought I was up to speed I now have to find out what 'yacht girl' means, I can't keep up!

It's another cheap shot from the Markles, throw a pebble into a pond, sit back and look at the ripples. It would be interesting to know just how the 'rumours' about William materialised.

I thought all royal men have mistresses, why would William be any different? Not exactly a secret they do this.

OMG had no idea this was all going on …

I have very uncomfortable mental images whenever I think of Prince William now 🫣😣🤢

Seriously? That's it? Meghan has been upset for years because of a disagreement about bridesmaids wearing tights or not wearing tights? That is really not normal.

They're a couple of total cowards because they know that no member of the RF would lower themselves to respond, the Markles can say anything they wish and there will always be a few people stupid enough to believe it. They have been shown to be liers and manipulators from day one.

It was Harry himself who made the comment about 'gingers' which I thought was really off...he's clearly no idea that the world has moved on from ginger jokes, which in itself is pretty revealing.

It all sounds dreadfully boring. A bit ‘I’ll PM you later hun’. Nothing with any real substance to it.

The thing I did notice in the 3 episodes was the total erasering of her first husband, mine has a significant part in my life story, strange, when telling 'your truth' that he does not figure.

Crikey, I just googled and google suggests an quora post saying M was a 'yacht girl' for Epstein. This is all utter madness and my head looks like that woman's brain with squiggles all over it from the Harry Enfield sketch.

I am quite sure that H and M will denounce Uncle Andrew as part of their documentary because it's the right thing to do.
