He'll return to and stick with Meghan. It would be too embarrassing and humiliating not to

CameronG · 20/01/2020 01:00

Imagine he just didn’t go back.

Like he just...lingered around. Yeah yeah I’ll go soon yeah.

I’d enjoy that.

Froq · 20/01/2020 01:02

Surely he’ll be off to Canada ASAP. Nothing left in the diary, plans are finalised, he said in his speech he’ll be ‘living in Canada’. I wonder what’s keeping him in the UK.

katiegoestoaldi · 20/01/2020 01:03

This Sentebale event for one. For all we know he could have gone straight to Heathrow afterwards

SecretGuiltyPleasureLoveIsland · 20/01/2020 01:10

Why couldn't they stay here and she could travel regularly to the US for work. Fuck me, a lot of partners have to do that - I've done it for much of my married life - but then, I've just been surviving. The ARROGANCE - what % of the world actually thrive.

I change my mind every day on these two and I'm normally very black and white.

SecretGuiltyPleasureLoveIsland · 20/01/2020 01:11

And ... Harry's going to be the one surviving now if he gives up his projects.

AmIbeingTreasonable · 20/01/2020 01:24

Can someone please post a link to Harry's speech (spoken) and the Nicholas Witchell comments, thank you

Andylion · 20/01/2020 01:30

I saw it on insta but the DM says it has the full speech here.

It's only 11 days until Brexit, the press will move on to scaremongering or patriotic factual analysis of it all soon. Worry not.

GrimDamnFanjo · 20/01/2020 02:27

Hmm reports are if a reconciliation with William but not Charles, which Is odd in view if where earlier reports said the £ was coming from...

Andylion · 20/01/2020 02:44

I'd still like to know who will be paying for their security before Harry moves here.

ioioitsoff · 20/01/2020 03:38

It was interesting that Harry said they decision I have made for my family, asserting his authority or saving face ?

CurlyWurlyTwirly · 20/01/2020 03:44

Could someone explain the electric car reference please?

Harry speech at Sentebale dinner

It was a heartfelt speech. I think Harry genuinely thought he could go on representing the Queen.
I also think he took the hit saying it was his decision to step back from public life.
I think losing the military patronages were a huge blow. And I think he was genuine about funding himself; To be properly independent.i think meghan’s attitude could well have been that, but she gives off the vibes of someone who just wants to be rich.
Using her friends to say the RF is toxic, the British are racists, and Tom Bradby to say they will do a tell all interview is not the actions of someone who gives a shit about Queen and country.

Harry May think they are singing from the same hymn sheet, but her behaviour says otherwise. I think she says one thing to Harry but he is blind t her actual behaviour.

SpanishLady · 20/01/2020 04:15

I think the dinner speech was a better presentation of their feelings than the SA interview.

I think he spoke well. I think it had enough nuance that it spoke of his mixed feelings without compromising his point about doing this but not coming across as anything negative - stroppy etc.

I think he looked to put to bed the following conjectures:

  1. All about money with no duty
  2. Family hates Meghan
  3. they hate the British people

Now the speculation needs to end and it's walking the walk time.

Good luck to them.

Mummyoflittledragon · 20/01/2020 04:27

That speech was possibly written by Meghan. It doesn’t matter a jot if he uses I to describe the decision to step back, it is likely she is pulling the strings even though he can’t see it. Methinks he could do the freedom programme.

The irony that Meghan visited the offices of a shelter for abused women is that (what some of us are speculating), she has an abused person about to join her from the U.K. A shelter, which accepts self iding women btw.

If anyone had bothered to ask, I’m not thriving, I’m surviving.

AmIbeingTreasonable · 20/01/2020 04:34

Thanks for the links, I'm ok now 😁

ChicChicChicChiclana · 20/01/2020 05:38

@Chocpear - I completely agree with your excellent post from just after midnight. This is my take on the whole shebang too. I also think Meghan just doesn't have the right type of personality to fit into the firm and she and Harry are acknowledging this quite early in their marriage. I do hope he has the will and strength to settle into a completely new and alien-to-him type of life that it seems she did not.

I feel for William as it's like becoming an only child in terms of sharing the burden of public duty for their generation of the royal family.

BestIsWest · 20/01/2020 05:50

Look I really need to be going to work. Can you slow down a bit, I’m still on page 1.

CurlyWurlyTwirly · 20/01/2020 06:05

I feel like this is Harry’s perception of his future...

Mummyoflittledragon · 20/01/2020 06:12

Agreed!

CurlyWurlyTwirly · 20/01/2020 06:22

Apparently Prince Charles is going to fund them from his Private investments for a year.

I presume this is a couple of million quid a year.
I don’t understand why Harry and Meghan are not paying for themselves straight off the bat and putting their money where their mouth is.

Also, based on this «funding model» it looks like they are not going to be paying back Frogmore anytime soon.

Meghan is going to be doing a collaboration with Misha Nonoo.
Her Instagram is really similar to Meghan’s with all the «inspirational quotes»

I suspect the Sussex Royal Instagram will be full of. Merching opportunities for her friends.
I think the Alist / billionaires will melt away. ( where is the cachet in hanging out with a blist actress, touting for voiceover work)
Meghan is being supported by older friends, who will benefit from the association with Meghan, eg JessicaMulroney, Misha Noonoo and a few of the others from the baby shower, ( apart from Serena Williams who i think, based on her husband’s tweet, is distancing herself)

However they were due to launch their «Sussex Foundation» in 2020 so let’s see what form that takes and who shows up / tweets in support.

JolieOBrien · 20/01/2020 06:55

I think they will now be having a jet set lifestyle. She will be on chat shows - for a price of course and she might even launch her own fashion line. Then after a few years she will get fed up and again and divorce him. I just knew from the start she would not like the royal lifestyle and would leave eventually.

MissEliza · 20/01/2020 07:02

@CurlyWurlyTwirly I suspect it will be longer than a year.

GoFiguire · 20/01/2020 07:05

Why doesn’t Meghan get herself a proper agent instead of A Harry?
