30 rooms?
Shocking.

For his teddies

zebrazoop · 21/10/2025 18:11

For all the young girls he likes

PickAChew · 21/10/2025 18:11

For his ego.

TheKeatingFive · 21/10/2025 18:12

This is the kind of entitlement monarchy breeds.

MidnightPatrol · 21/10/2025 18:13

It’s all about status.

And that’s all he’s got, so letting go of it is particularly difficult for him.

LadyKenya · 21/10/2025 18:13

He is part of the RF. They have worked hard, for all that they have got doncha know?

DisforDarkChocolate · 21/10/2025 18:14

He doesn't but he feels entitled to one. Another example of why he is a idiot.

ahoyshipmate · 21/10/2025 18:14

For all his brass necks

Stormyday34 · 21/10/2025 18:14

Because he’s an entitled prick.

why can’t we send him into exile like we would’ve done in olden days? Banish him to Transylvania or some such?

Arlanymor · 21/10/2025 18:15

Because he's a self-aggrandising, arrogant, entitled prick.

@JackandSallySkellington Teddies made me laugh out loud. Arranged EXACTLY according to the laminated photo!

SprayWhiteDung · 21/10/2025 18:17

Probably for the same reason that the 'elites' will have thousands of acres of land, even though they never actually farm or otherwise use it productively; and the one thing burdening the minds of multi-billionaires is how they can get more billions.

JohnTheRevelator · 21/10/2025 18:19

Because he's an entitled twat.

SeaAndStars · 21/10/2025 18:24

If I had to live with him I'd want plenty of places to get away from him.

@Stormyday34 Harsh! What did Transylvania do to deserve him?

TomatoSandwiches · 21/10/2025 18:29

I think it actually is the Teddies.

teacupzs · 21/10/2025 18:29

Probably because that's his normal.

Yamamm · 21/10/2025 18:33

He has been a Prince since the moment he was born. Has absorbed his social status since he was old enough to think. He’s not very intelligent so hasn’t been able to analyse his situation effectively and adapt his behaviour to modern expectations.
It is just inconceivable to him that a Prince doesn’t have the life he expects.

Topseyt123 · 21/10/2025 18:37

He doesn't. But I suppose his ginormous ego wouldn't fit into anything less.

He spent a lot of his childhood growing up with nannies in Buckingham Palace which has something like 700 rooms so he probably thinks 30 is pokey and cramped.

He's an arse.

Good grief are these jokes appropriate?

ACynicalDad · 21/10/2025 19:12

For when Jeremy comes to stay and brings the girls. He hasn’t accepted Jeremy’s never coming again.

janamo · 21/10/2025 19:12

He must be quite envious of his younger brother Eddie over there in Bagshot. How many rooms has he got in his house,120 or something? And the rest of them with houses here there and everywhere with cottages, staff lodges, stables, garages, acres of grounds, swimming pools, polo grounds the lot.

But I suppose they are entitled to it all since they worked so hard to achieve that wealth. 😉

Peasants they are not!

It isn’t a joke, if he hasn’t had victims in that property I would be very very surprised.

I'd say they're tame compared to the reality.
