I really really hope they can find peace and happiness away from the toxicity of the British media (though they, the media that is, have a loooong reach and I worry that now H&M are no longer 'royal' they are no longer protected by the agreed codes put in place apparently after Diana died).
No reason at all why they should have to put up and shut up, just because others do it/have done it in the past. The vitriol towards them (75% stoked by one Piers Morgan, who as other have pointed out and as mentioned by Alan Rusbridger in the Guardian yesterday, just MAY have somewhat of an interest that he has never declared in the case of Harry and phone-hacking etc...) has been breath-taking.
I felt so sad for PH reading the text of his speech the other night where he said how happy he was to have had his charity rooting for him and Meghan, I think then his specific words were that people thought 'The second son of Diana finally getting hitched, hooray!'
For some reason those specific words made me feel so sad for him. :( It sounds as if maybe he very much sees himself entirely through the lens of being 'Diana's second son', and is aware of just how much interest there is in his life and his choices from total strangers, who wish him good or ill, either way it's quite a burden.
I don't know him from Adam but feel just very sad for anyone who lives their life in the kind of fishbowl he has, not just because he's royal but because (perhaps even more because) he's Diana's son. So sad for him that his life comes with all the burdens of her incredible level of celebrity but that he doesn't even have her around and missed years of his childhood with her. Worst of all worlds, really - she casts such a long shadow and yet he was deprived of her so young.
Money doesn't make up for any of that. I know he doesn't have to worry about paying the bills but it's just sad to see a young person, anyone really, so publically vulnerable.
I hope he's found his 'home' in Meghan and his son, and I hope he finds the peace of mind all of us deserve.
I don't think they've done everything perfectly, nobody ever does, and I feel a little as if they're now so over-sensitised to the hideous media barrage that they're in a bit of a bubble which can't be healthy for anyone, let alone people who have mental health challenges, I know myself that I can get quite gridlocked mentally if I have challenges and cannot get myself out of a deep groove and feel very aggrieved which isn't helpful.
But hopefully a little more space and distance will rebalance them.
