AIBU to think King Charles comes across as a really crap dad?

I mean really, this is just pathetic. No one is believing that KC couldn’t find a spare bed for his son. AIBU to think that as the parent KC needs to get a grip and grow up instead of just fuelling the drama?

I did read a very interesting article by the ghost writer, JRMoehringer. It would appear that he tried to challenge and modify some of Harry's wilder claims, some crazy exaggerations H claimed had happened. Although you're right, basic fact checking would have revealed so many of the lies, but most people understand that now.

It's almost hilarious - if it weren't so wicked on his part - the way Harry whines about the trauma he suffered while joining Meghan (who had her own agenda) in piling trauma upon trauma for his family.

Now, that's bad enough. But to want to come crawling back????

It's about 2 things: money (Elton John has refused to put his hand in his pocket apparently) and the fact that no-one is interested in either of these grifters once the royal connection is gone.

That's what it's all about, folks.

Do you think the Bank of Pa opened again for business?

I don't think it's anything as sweet-natured as this.

KC met them, I bet, for strategic reasons. There were strict conditions - I'm sure H wanted to see his father alone - to beg for money etc - but Camilla was there, which H will not have appreciated. Wonder how that went, considering what he's said and written about her?? And I bet there were officials there, and that the Dodgy Duo were frisked for wires etc before the audience.

Apparently Meghan was allowed in at the end with the kids.

I don't see any rapprochement - how could there be? Charles has to keep William on side and there's no chance of any reconcilation there. If KC brought H back into the fold and I was William, I'd walk and go and live a private life - a real private life, not the Z-list celeb life H & M seem to crave.

I think KC did brilliantly - just enough to shut H & M up and not quite enough to alienate William, who must be his priority now.

I sure hope not! I'm sure that's what KC and the Palace must have been expecting. I'm sure that KC would help if, say, they needed money to send the children to an exclusive American school, but I don't think he'd countenance financing their ridiculous lifestyle.

They need proper jobs - but a) they are both useless and b) they yearn for the royal lifestyle which they had before they stupidly burned their bridges.

Neither of them seem to understand the consequences of what they've done. There is no way back for them, since they betrayed confidences and trust. Personally I cannot understand how they dare show their faces in the UK.

There isn't a hope in hell Charles will give him money. I can't just seeing it happening, especially with the court case. They won't want to be seen to be associating with it!

True. What on earth will H&M do for money? They're not exactly good at making it.

I think if it did it would be under conditions.

Such as living a humble in the shadows life back on one of the estates. Royal but as far out of the public as can be apart from attending things like church. Meghan still doing things as long as it’s not selling secrets so she can still act or whatever like the original deal offered was, but Harry back in his box in a safe cottage.

Kinda like Andrew these days. Which is a whole about bloody time thing.

True!

Apparently people think shouting the same misinformation over and over again at other people somehow will make it magically true!!
it doesn’t!🤷‍♀️

Meghan has stated quite openly that she has 'never signed anything' (such as an NDA) and that she has diaries from her brief time as a royal.

I don't think Meghan would stay with Harry and live a quiet, modest life. That's not what she wants or expects. And if they split I'm sure they'd have to pay her off hugely to stop her writing that memoir and 'sitting down with Oprah' again! A split would generate huge income for her, and I think Netflix have already taken an option on any divorce fallout material.

Oh I agree with Meghan she’s always been her own woman and wants to be a celeb as per her acting career. Although how much that could sustain her now with her richer lifestyle is questionable.

I always wonder how much dirt she really got in her brief inside the royal house time.

Remembering all the staff NDA’s that could be undone by the royal household as well that quite likely wouldn’t paint her in a good light either. Rather nuclear option.

She much like Harry has been called out on lies to the court regarding involvement on book I think it was.

Surely Meghan is discredited though? Would people believe her stories?

The monarchy was at its lowest ebb at the time re ‘support’ nothing to do with what my circle thinks - or yours for that matter .
Support is lower now but the death of Diana and their handling of events was one their first wake up calls .

Her fans will always believe her but I think the general public doesn’t care and she’s burnt some bridges.

Very much Archie won’t get a title because shh 👀 he is mixed race.

Which of course most Brits knew was bullshit and that he would always get one once Charles was king.

But it got the views in America.

Ironic in its own right still on the basis they escaped and ran away from the horribly racist royal family and U.K. but want those titles firmly in their grasp. Stormed out after their 50/50 was rejected.

.

I also don’t think Oprah would be fooled again nor Netflix.

Both expected much bigger pay days from it and none fact checked before going to air and allowed themselves to be shown as stupid as lies where called out again.

Oprah never signed an NDA either.

The fake wedding anyone 🙃

The big public spectacle that wasn’t for them even though QE had suggested something smaller?

Very good!

Which cost £millions, paid for by KC and the taxpayer. There's gratitude.

I mean neither seem to of ever been very grateful for much.

No appreciation whatsoever. No gratitude for the most amazing privilege and opportunities which other people would kill for.
